HE BARELY NOTICED HER

Of course she was provoked when
he passed her on the street without
stopping to speak to her. He lifted
his hat it is true. says the Chicago
Tribune. but she recalled the time
when he would have turned and
walked several blocks with her, no
matter how pressing his business.
Hadn't they been sweethearts few
years bcfore9 Why should the fact
that they had not met for three years
so change him? Ought he not to be
the more pleased to see her?
The more she thought Of it the
more she felt that he should have paid
her some little attention, if only for
the sake of old times, and when she
reached home she was SO angry that
she resolved to make him repent his
apparent slight

lowing: .~-

and that it would bring him to his

received:

OUTSTANDING EARS,
How They May b. Induced to LIE Close
to the Head. II. 49,

How They May b. Inducoi to LIE Close
- to the Head. ,G
William Thomas of Birmingham,
describes in the British Medical Jour
nal the following operation. by which
he has succeeded in making farino
ears lie close to the head. The oper.
alton consists in the removal from the
inner surface of the pima of an clip
teal piece of skin. dividing the carti-
lage down the center OF the exposed
cartilaginous surface and uniting the
margins of skin by sutures, The
widest part of skin removed should be
from one-half to three-quarters of an
inch, but of course this depends upon
the degree of deformlty. It is neces-
sary to divide and turn back the carti-
lage. not only to remedy the deform-
ity, but also to allow an easy approx
nation OF the skin margins. and care
must be taken to avoid division of the
outer skin with the cartilage
The later treatment consists in the
application of Il small cotton wool pad
between the head and the pima, the
latter being fixed by q bandage. until
healing is complete. Immediately
union takes place and there is hardly
any perceptible scar. the skin of the
ear having great vitality. A simple
method of keeping the outstanding
ears back without any operation is to
fix them by piece OF lint soaked in
collodion and placed between the
pima and the head. the ears being
bandaged close to the head until the
collodion is firmly set The adherent
splint thus formed will hold the ear in
position for two or three weeks when
it may be renewed. It is however
only temporary measure. The priu-
ciples Of the operation are applicable
to various mnlformations of the pima.

In the northern part of the Irish Sea,
within sight of England. Ireland and Scot

ment almost as Independent as any of the
Australian colonies, and has privileges
about as ancient as civilization after the
Roman period. The Isle Of Man is very
small speck OF territory, not bigger than the
island of Santa Catalina, which James Lick
left to sustain his scientific foundations. 1t
has been made the most of however, by a
thrifty population of the Celtic family, and
1t has as much ancient history associated
with It's people and their customs as Great
Britain, Ireland or France. st. Patrick is
the patron saint of this Island az he is of
Ireland, and equally is ii free from all yeno-
nous reptiles or batraehians. all Of which is
due in popular opinion to the saints aver
sion to these humble but troublesome crea-
lures, and his ban upon their presence
wherever he walked with his pastoral crook.
Although there are no toads. the island has
the benefit OF frogs, which are good for food
when properly cooked, and il also has a
couple of species of liz rds, which are
quite as harmless as sunshine. Carnivora

A Man Who Could Not Be Ratified Even
In Church.


New York Commercial Advertiser
Brooklyn preacher. who has been con-
siderably advertised, of late related an in
cldent last Sunday which many people may
not yet have heard. He said that a man,
who had not been to church in a very long
time. finally hearkened to the persuasions
OF his wife and decided to go. He got the
family all together and they started early.
Arriving at the church there were yet very
few PEOPLE in it and no ushers on hand, SO
the man led his family well up the aisle and
took possession of nice ew.
just as the services were about to begin a
pompous looking old man came in, walked
to the door OF that paw and stood there,
exhibiting surprise that it was occupied.
The occupants moved over and offered him
seated. Finally the old man produced a
card and wrote upon it with pencil:
II pay Tor this pew"
BE gave the card to the stranger occu-
pant, who. the preacher remarked, had he
been like many people, would have at once
got up and left. But the stranger adjusted
his glasses, and with smile read the card.
Then he calmly wrote beneath it:
How much do you pay?"
10 TINS inquiry the pempous gentleman,
Sill standing, wrote abruptly:
Two hundred dollars a year, sir ~
IDe stranger smiled as though he were
pleased. looked around To compare the pew
with others, admired its nice cushion and
furnishings, and wrote back:
II don't blame you. Ii is well worth it,"
The pompouS gentleman at that stage
collapsed into his seat.
