Grated Chicken Claw. For Finger Nails

OrHTteu OHIoNoH OIR"b It OF II lHBe1 0NHhIh'
Frederick Stega, well known resi-
dent of Burlington, N. j., has been sue
cessful in performing an operation of
great interest to medical men. A short
time ago he clipped off the tops of two
fingers with pair of shears. In expert
menting for remedy he successfully
grated chicken claws on his disabled
fingers. A couple of weeks ago the
claws, which had been carefully band
aged to his fingers, began to grow, and
since then they have shown decided
development. Stoga can now use his
new fashioned finger nails with consid-
cradle effect.
