ACKNOWLEDGES TIE CORN
A FLOUNDERING DEFENSE OF
RRAYIN THE NEWS.
Admits the s'Appeal's" Charges,
hut Disputes the Dates.

The defense in the News of an
ANONYMOUS lunatic calling himself
Justice, is already the laughing stock
of the town.
There are two lunatics in fact. de-
Tending Bray anonymously. One of
his defenders, defends him on the
ground that he is only getting $50
extra money a month out OF the
county treasury and the other de-
tends him on the ground that he on
ly gets five.
If he gets but one dollar a year
out of the county beyond his salary
he is violating the law and liable to
fine, Imprisonment and removal from
office. Here is the law:
Section 1868 of the Revised Stat
utes reads:
"No member OF the Board of
County Commissioners shall be inter
ested directly or indirectly IN any
property purchased for the use ct the
city, or in any purchase or sale OF
property belonging to the county,
nor in dny contract made by the
county for theerection of public build
ings, the opening or improvement OF
roads, or the building Of bridges or
for other purposes, and violation of
this section shall be a misdemeanor
punishable by fine of not less than
500, and not exceeding $500, and
shall be cause for removal from Of
flee.
Here is fair sample of the argu-
ment from the thrifty commissioner.
The statement that a bill of S4l
was allowed Mr.. Bray on May 81,
1892 is absolutely false as shown by
the records.
The APPEALS statement regarding
that particular bill was incorrect.
It was filed May 81, AID allowed
June 4th. THE APPEAL quoted the
day Of fling Instead Of the day of
allowance.
To be more explicit we give the
bill in full, the bill which the News
pronounces absolutely false"

lessons in Nursing.

We may we'll believe that the first cx-
periences OF nursing life are trying, even
for the strongest nerves. The rawlings
of deirious patients, the means of tho
restless, the crying of the children, all
seem to her to he uncomfortable. Here tho
newcomer has often to make her first
close acquaintance with death.
Not long since probntioner left a
London hospital because she found out
that tho patients sometimes died, aud
she was afraid of dead people. Tho
humble domestic duties prove to others
eminently distastelul; but, as this guide,
philosopher and friend observes, "to
polish brass and peel potatoes is not II
soul-stirring labor, but it is good disc-
plino."
There seems nothing like hospital
work for dispelling false aud conven.
tiona notions of what is gentccl and be-
coming. Unhappily, in some natures u
hnrd life seems to cngcnder harsh dis
position. We hear of the cruelty OF
some Sisters who never like to see
probationer sitting down. For the
."fagging," however, of which much
complaint has been heard, the remedy
is, we are assured, in the hands of the
Sist crs.
The etiquette Of hospital life is de.
stnbed MS livery strict" With regard
to the patients, il chiefly consists in not
talking too long to them especially in
not showing any familiarity or prefer
cnce for one over another. With regard
to the Sister, it consists in Standing in
her presence and addressing her re.
specially.
What with the subjects OF studies, ex.
amnations, diplomas, private, intirmary,
district and monthly nursing, besides the
duties of army aud navy nurses, massage
and other kindred topics, the student
will find that she has plenty to occupy
her. The "mania for massage" is il
seeing, Gu the decline. London News.

DUMMIES FOR DRESSES

Half u dozen ladies were standing
outside of doorway on downtown
business block. Two or three of them
were rather slenderly built, while the
others were inclined to stoutness. AL
though they remained there together Tor
several hours, none of them said any
thing. This was probably because they
had no heads. In fact, they were made
of zinc us far down rs just below the
waist, while beneath there was nothing
AZ all except an iron stick for each one,
with base to stand upon. IL was evil
dent that they were dressmakers' dunn.
mics.
Unlike most such dummies, however,
these represented the figures of real peo-
pie. A reporter found by inquiry that
the manner of making them is rather
curious. For example, Mrs. Jones, for
reasons presently to be explained, wants
to have one constructed after the model
of her own shape. she goes and has
herself measured rs if for dress and a
costume is cut out according to the
measurements. But the material, in
stead of being silk or other cloth, is sheet
zinc. When the pieces have been cut
out they are soldered together, instead
Of being sewn, and thus is Obtained n
reproduction of the figures of Mrs
Jones.
Necessarily, the measuring, cutting
and shaping have to be done very care
fully, inasmuch us the dummy must have
precisely the form of Mrs. Jones. She
has it sent home and it serves in future
for dressmahing purposes rs substitute
for herself. That is to say, she has all
her dresses fitted upon it instead OF hav-
ing to bother with that part of the bust
ness herself. Any woman will testify
what an ag2ravating bore it is to have Il
dress fitted, requiring as it does hours
of posing before the mirror and al, sorts
of alterations and establishments, oil Of

per.
But with n dummy to fit the dress
upon most of this trouble is avoided.
If dressmaker is employed, she can do
all the fitting on the model, and if the
gown fits the latter it will equally satisfy
the requirements of Mrs. Jones. OF
course, this assumes that Mrs. Jones
does not get particularly fatter or thin.

to have herself measured for another

or disturb herself again about the matter,
having provided the materials, until the

Most women are obliged to make their
own dresses, and for their purposes such
a dummy is invaluable, inasmuch ms
they are thus enabled to fit their own
waists and drape their own skirts as
we'll and rs easily as if they were max.
ing costume for somebody else. The
zinc dummies cost from IS to 500. The
price of them goes up rapidly with the

dummy with a forty -cight-iuch bust
costs at least twice as much as one with

Economical Trees.

Ihe well-known power which many
plants possess of developing adventitious
roots from almost any pnrt, when placed
under favoring conditions, is manifested
in somewhat extraordinary manner by
several trees recently brought TO the
notice of botanists.
In the Bulletin Of the Torrey Botani.
cal Club for August, 1891, the present
writer published an account of linden
growing in Boston, Mass, where it had
been subjected to injury from horses
gnawing the bark, and in consequence
had a considerable portion of the
trunk decayed. At the edge of the
wound the camb;um had formed a
callus, and from point in this living
tissue there proceeded eeyeral vigorous
root which penetrated the decaying
wood in all directions, evidently finding
rich soil. t.
Subsequent issues OF the Bulletin have
contained descriptions OF several other
examples OF trees exhibiting similarly
economical utilization of the products OF
their own decay. These include swamp
naples. Norway maple, willow and a
white mulberry. In an English paper
appeared not long ago an account of an
oak which had Sustained itself for years
by mass of roots grown into its OWE
trunk!"
In one Of the swamp naples observed
by l.. NJ. Stab.er at Great Neck, Long
Island, the primary injury apparently re.
suited from a storm which split and
twisted the trunk. One of the ADVENT
tious roots, sat least two inches IN
diameter, started as high as ten feet
above the base OF the trunk. aud passed
down through the decayed portion to
the ground. Popular Science Monthly.
