creation.
OF all the American nations, nor,
have left fuller NEUROLOGICAL legacy
than the Clutches OF Guatemala, who,
in addition to vast mass of ora ira
diLion, possessed also written liter
ature on the subject full of rude,
strange elo1uence and poetic orIgi-
nality. The simple sublimity of their
account of the creation equals any,
thing TO be found in literature. "And
the heavens were formed and all the
signs thereof were set IN their angle
and alignment, and its boundaries
were fixed toward the four winds by
the Creator, the Mother and Father
of life and existence; He by whom
all move and breathe, the Father OF
the peace of nations and the civIliza-
tion of his people, He whose wisdom
has projected the excellence of all
that Is on the earth or in the lakes
or in the sea But there was as yet
no man, nor nyIanimal, nor bird, nor
crawtish, nor any pit, nor ravine, nor
green herb, nor any tree; nothing was
but the Ornament. The face of the
earth had not appeared, only the
peaceful sea and all the space OF
heaven. There was nothing yet
Joined together, nothing tthat Clung
to anything else; nothing that bal
anced itself, that made the least
rustling, that made any sound in the
heavens. There was nothing that
stood up, nothing but the quiet water;
but the sea, calm and alone in its
boundaries; nothing lived, nothing
but immobility and silence in the
darkness, in the night Determined
to people the waste, the Supreme
Father called into being the earth,
the plants the trees, and finally ami
mails, birds, beasts and creeping
things And the gods called on
these, their creatures, to praise their
Creator, and they could not so the
gods despised them. And again and
again they tried to create an animal
that should speak and intellIgently
declare the praises of its Maker. And
finally after many failures and
: thousands OF years spent in expert
ment, they made men, and the men
looked up to heaven and said: Hail,
| . Creator! Thou that nearest and
understandest us! Abandon us noti
| Forsake us not! Give us to walk al
ways in an open road, in path with
out snares, to lead quiet, happy and
! peaceful lives free Of all reproach. ;
| Under the protection of the gods
men multiplied, but soon forgot to
/ praise and honor the deities and a
great rain fell which destroyed all
but one good man, his wife, his sons,
and his sons wives, all of whom had
taken refuge in great canoe. When
the rain ceased they settled in place
called Tulan, and there the language
of all was confused, so they deter
! mined TO leave Tulan and 60 to diff.
ferent parts Of the earth; thus they
did, and in this way the whole earth
was peOpled with men"

ON Saturday morning, says a writer
In Harper's Young People. There
we're the big-sized shoes OF the farm
er himself, the middle-sized shoes OF
his good vraOw, and several small
sized shoes of the children, and all
the line had been scrubbed and fresh
ly whitewashed in preparation for
sunday. There are many kinds OF
wooden shoes worn by the peasants
in Europe, but none are more clumsy
and heavy than the "klOompers" OF
the HOllanders. They are boat
shaped, with high wooden projections
to the heels, and a curious little up
ward twist to the toes, like the PROV
of a Chinese junk. But heavy and
awkward as the shoes are the Dutch
children run about as lightly as IL
they were shOd in Cinderella's glass
slippers and do not seem to object in
the least to the clicking sound made
10y the shoes on the pavement. One
of the most extraordinary sights in
the world is line OF little Dutch
boys playing leap-frOg in their great
noisy wooden kloOmpers. Having
formed row of frogs" from one end
of their village to the other the boys
begin to jump in the usual agile way
Of the players of the lively game. AS
soon as the line is in motion a most
tremendous sound startles the village.

TRANSMISSION of blood as practiced in
surgery is by no means a recent develop
ment in science. Medical records show
it to have been known to the Egyptians,
Syrians aud Persisns. The Pittsburg
Dispatch regards it as even possible that
the ancients were more successful than
the physicians of recent periods. In the
Seventeenth Century so many attempts
were made in France, accompanied by
so many failures and fatalities, that the
Parliament of Paris declared against its
legality. The experiments continued,
however, calf's blood being substituted
for the human. The results were not
encouraging, the physicians not beng
aware that the blood of animals injected
into the veins of another belonging to a
different species acted as poison. For
200 years the experiments were discon-
tinued, and then one day, some years
ago, the story of the death of u young
medical student named Roman lie Golf,
while trying to save the life OF a friend
with his own blood, created great sem
sation. A street in Paris, named after
le Goff, commentaries his brave act.
By this time the medic al men had
learned that to be sucC essful the blood
must neither be allowed to cosgulate,
nor air suffered to enter the veins with
it. Doctor Roassel. of Geneva, invent
ed an apparatus which overcane both
the above difficulties. Since that time
the experiments have been continued
with remarkable success. Many lives
have been undoubtedly saved by it. An
old employe of the Theatre Francais in
Paris, named Dupnitch, has given up
his blood several times to those in need
of it, for which he has been awarded .
magnificent gold medal by the French
Government.
