On behalf OF our readers we have made
some very important investigations in this

alarming rate
Feeling that something must be done at

chronic diseases, and we give our readers
their opinions and advice as TO how 20 effect
a cure IN these cases.
Dr. D. NJ. Reynolds. one OF New York City's
greatest specialists. says unhesitatingly and
emphatically:

BEAUTY IN THE LIP:

Some Savages Pride Themselves on
Size. Others on Deformity.
Among the Babines, who dwell to
the north OF the Columbian river, a
large under lip is regarded as type
of beauty. A small incision is made
in the lip during infancy and frag-
ment ofbone inserted. This is replaced
from time to time bylarger and larger
fragments. each operation being at
tended with severe pain, and, accord
ing to the Brooklyn Eagle, at length
pieces Of wood measuring not less
than 3 inches in length and Il inches
in width, are inserted, causing the lip,
to protrude to a. frightful extent. A
similar custom exists among the
Paraguay Indians, and he labnets
worn by the Botocudos are inserted
in q slit made in the lower lip. A Bot
ocudo has been noticed to take a
knife and cut q piece of meat on it
and tumble the meat into his mouth.
Among the Hydahs Queen Charlotte
lslands) tits considered mark OF the
lowest breeding to be without this
labial ornament of thelowerllp. When
young woman and an old one quar-
rel the elderly dame will approach the
younger one with her youth, mex
perience and general ignorance, point
ing, were further proof necessary, to
the inferior size OF her lip. This lip OF
beauty is not, however, peculiar TO
these aborignes, but is common
among some OF the African tribes.
The Berrys, for instance, who inhab
Sanbriat, a tributary OF the Nile, in.
sert in the lower lip a piece OF crystal
an inch in length. The Bugo venom
in q similar way extend the lower lip
horizontally till it projects far beyond
the upper. The mutilation of both
lips is observed among the women of
Kadje in Segseg, between Lake Tsad
and the Beuwe.
