A Curious Circulating Library"

Perhaps one of the most unique and
remarkable institutions in the world is
the "Bone Circulating Library" an at
tachment of the College Of Physicians
aud Surgeons, New York City. In this
room, which is fitted up with shelves,
cases, ETC., just as any other library
room, are hundreds of thousands of hu.
mau bones of all sizes, shapes and forms.
The bones, which are numbered and
labelled, are placed in order on the
shelves aud in the cases, an attendant
being always on hand to act in the same
capacity as librarian. 1t is his duty to
keep track of the bones lent; to enter
them upon books, and to see that they
are returned uninjured. During the day
scores of students flock In and out of this
uncanny place, carrying packages of
strange appearance in their hands or
sticking out of their coat pockets. These
packages are made up of human bones,
which they are returning or taking from
this "Bone Circulating Library. st.

To Register Patrons.

With this issue of the REGISTER, we
sever our connection with the paper en-
tirely, having sold it TO Messrs Seeberger
~ Merrill, who will continue it's publica-
tion, and we certainly believe add much
to its popularity and influence. We va
cate the editorial chair with good deal
of pleasure, for its duties have never
been congenial TO US. Our hopes and
ambitions lie in another direction and in
future will be entirely devoted to that
end For the time during which We
have been in charge of its columns, it's
duties being entirely new to US, We have
done the best we could and have no ex-
cuse or apology to mako for any short
comings or mistakes that may have been
made. Very much if not all OF our sue
cess, has been entirely due to the efforts
of our accomplished assistant, Mr.. Mer-
ill, and we derive much satisfaction in
knowing that we turn it over to him
and his co-worker in much better shape
physically at least, than when we took
charge of it. We sincerely hope the
same support and assistance which has
SO generously been extended to us by
the party and friends, will continue
towards our successors, and have no
fears but they will merit all and more
of it. b. B. Brown.

The REGISTER man dropped In on
Mayor Vanorsdale the other day to get
his views on affairs in general and the
business outlook and city business in
particular. The mayor was in happy
frame of mind and apparently at peace
with all mankind. He said:
1.-The city government is in good shape.
We have an economical Board of Trus-
tees, and if the people will have patience
with the administration think we will
pull through all right. Our marshal has
done good work for our people this week.
Times are getting better, our business
is improving We are selling more goods
than we did a year ago and good eatables
are more plentiful. On Sunday had
the pleasure of taking dinner with
friend Schmidt. wife and daughter;
there / met c. V. Decker, his son Carl
and Mr. Davis of California. We pass
ed two happy hours eating spring chick
ems and hearing Mrs. Schmidt and Julia
play on the piano On Monday evening
was treated to some very fine straw berry
short cake by friend G. t. Herbert and
his lady. George says the strawberry
season is over now.-Am sorry. On
Tuesday was treated by friend Coxhead
and his lady to some of the finest peaches
ever ate in Colorado. The peaches
were grown on his father in laws farm
west of town. Friend Denny's roasting
ears will be ripe soon-you know how l

Care Of an Invalid's Bed.

The care of an invalid's bed is ap-
parently very simple affair. But
every invalid knows that few except
professional nurses understand the
art of changing the sheets in such a
manner as to relieve rather than
weary the patient. An exchange
gives these directions, which are at
once simple and practical: after
placing your invalid on one side Of
the bed, begin at the opposite side
and roll the sheet its entire length in
a tight, straight roll, until it reaches
the side of the patient. The clean
sheet, which should be aired and
warmed, should now be put on and
carefully turned under the mattress,
the other half being also in long
tight roll.
1t is easy to pass these two soft
rolls under the patients body by TAX
ing first the top and then the bottom.
The work should be done very slowly
and without nervousness, else the
patient will be weary. The old sheet,
in its rolled form, is now slipped out
of the bed, and the fresh one unrolled
and tucked in smooth and straight.
1t is a good plan to secure it in place
with safety pins, which prevent an
noying wrinkles. The upper sheet i:
put on in the same way except, Of
course, it does not require the same
position. And the patient has nice;
fresh bed, and has not become ex-
hausted in the change. New York

Not All Selfishness.

ave read a good deal about the
hog as he is called, on railway
trains" remarked an old traveller,
but there is one thing that I have
noticed in my journeys that seems to
me to deserve more attention than it
receives. That is the regard that
travellers show for the rights Of others.
I never 60 on trip that I fail to
notice it. It is the universal custom
to recognize the right Of person to
a seat if he or she has pre-empted it
by leaving valise or other property
in it to indicate that it has been re-
served, so to speak. In all my ex-
perience I never saw any one seize
upon such piece Of baggage and
eject it, and then sit down and &C.
cupy the seat. That seems to me to
be really remarkable. And then how
rarely does it happen that passen-
ger loses any baggage that he may
have left unguarded in seat. A
man may 60 into the smoking car
and remain an hour or more, and on
his return he will find the property
intact. At stations where there are
eating houses, passengers get out by
the score, reserving their seats with
bags, OvercOats, books, magazines,
ETC., and on coming back will find
everything undisturbed. What would
happen if newcomer into a car
should remove the traps from seat
and take possession Of it? 1 don't
know for l never saw a case of that
kind, but I fancy that the public
opinion of the other passengers would
speedily make itself felt in an I'M
mistakable manner. This regard for
others rights is one of the character
istics of American travellers that
ought to be emphasized. l have seen
numerous specimens of the genus
'hog,' and nobody can be more dis
guSted than l at the exhibition they
make; but over against them like to
set the other quality of which 1 have
spoken. There is good deal of IN
selfishness in the world after all" -
New York Tribune.

He rose now, hearing the voice he haf
come to thrill at as the dearest music OF
earth, and folding his invalid Rowr
about his rather attenuated frame, tot
tered over to the window and threw
himself upon the broad window seat, tc
see her, trembling with emotion as much
as with weakness.
Oh. Viva, beautiful Princess of the
Sea! Each time he looks he deems her
grown fairer, and his heart is less his
own!
She was standing on the top step OF
an ancient sun-dial, carelessly dressed
In a long, flmy white role of many
folds, with @anRel sleeves. from which
her exquisite arms stretched forth. Offer
ing crumbs to cloud Of sea-birds which
had followed her up from the shore:
whittier It was evident she had gone for
her morning bath, for her hair stresmed
over her dress in endless ripples, and her
appraised face was fresh and ROSY, and
brin'ful of animation.
Old Kenmore, standing below her on
the garden walk. leaning on his rake,
with his broad bonnet in his hand, eyed
her with a mixture of proud affection
and dogged resolution.
Il see no pitfall at my feet, Kenmore,
cried Ulva, looking at him wonderingly;
"but l. have noticed that ever since you
came home you have not been like your
own old SELF What is veXin9 you, Ken
more? Not I, hope?"
She tossed the last of her crumbs upon
the broad slab at her feet, and was in
stantly the center of a fiuttering, hust-
ling, white winged cloud of birds, who
pecked and Quarreled with each other
quite confdingly. Viva crossed her
soft warm arms upon the gray lichened
stone, and leaning there, showered all
the gentle beauty of her eyes upon her
old servant.
at is not my Lady Oolava that could
vex Kenmore" said he solemnly; ~but
the weird that is laid upon her-that
will break his heart"
"Now. Kenmore" she held up her fin
ger with . laughing menace, II know
something supernatural is coming.
You're going to prophesy bad fortune
for me-"
God forbid" exclaimed he, fervently.
"An' the doom will pass if We will but
heed in time"
swell, speak, Oracle, listen"
Laugh an ye will, my lady, I'm your
own to laugh at-only heed the words
I'll make bold to speak" He sunk his
voice to more impressive key. and drew
himself up to a more imposing attitude
Its not for naught that I've lived for
eighty years within hearing OF the voices
of the sea. There's many q true word
uttered by those who have hearkened to
the waves. 1t has been said that who
ever saves a man from drowning, that
man will be his curse. IT'S an old law,
that, my lady, but we'll known to be q
true one.

and dawning indignation.

Edgar Arden, lying in the stately guest
chamber above, with square Of the
lozenge-paned window aiar for the heal

eagerly lent his ear to catch every sweet
infection of the malden's voice.
For his fever was passed, he was con-
valescing finely, and his secret was yet
his own. He had begged them to fetch
his mate to his bedside in his first lucid
moment that next morning, and La1v
Dunraven having given orders that they
should be left alone, Edgar was able to
make such arrangements with the faith
full, injurious fellow, that when he and
his mate left Sleat-na-V recken for the
mainland in the first fishing boat they
could hail, nobody had heard any other
name tor their young master than Cap
tain Edgar" as they were wont to call
him among themselves. As Kenmore
had never deigned to make any en-
quiries concerning his employer while on
board the Mergauser. and his saturnine
air checked freedom Of speech in his
presence. he had no knowledge Of
Arden's identity with his revered Lord
Inchcape's heir; so that upon his re-
covery he was quite unable to answer
Director Sircombe's searching questions

talked or sung In the old tower garden,
and had fed his eyes many. many times
