The horror with which the disco
tion of human bodies by medical stu
dents was almost universally regard
ed a generation or more ago, is grad
ually disappearing. Intelligent pub
lie sentiment now recognizes the ne
cessity of knowledge in the physic an
which he can gain in no other way,
and in Wisconsin and many other
States, there are statutes providing
means by which bodies for dissection
eau be lawfully obtained.
If there ever was any excuse for
the crime of body-snatching, there Is
certainly none now; and it would
seem to be in the interest of the
medical profession rs well as in the
interest of the public for scrupulous
care to he taken to prevent lawless
outrage upon the feelings Of people
who are bowed beneath the saddest
Of earthly grlefs-the loss by death Of
a dear relative or friend No physi-
clan with exalted pride in his profess
sion will willfullY lie party to what
If generally known would tend to
create in the comm unity belief that
members of that profession are de-
void of human feeling and ready to
ruthlessly trample upon the tender
sentiment of people in deep affection.
The law providing bodies for dis
section in this State would seem to
be clear and ample. If not, it can be
amended. But every physician with
a fine sense of civic duty and pro-
fessional honor must stoutly stand
for quick compliance with the pro-
visions of the law, and must be above
collision with hody-snatchers for the
purpose Of obtaining subjects -

TIGHT sHoEs ARE UGLY.

The mistake most foolishly and re-
peatedly made is the purchase of shoes
that are too small. If the foot is large,
a small shoe, merely because it is
small, will not conceal the defect. It
will also, if the lady persists in using
it, increase the size of the foot by ex-
erting too great pressure on the joints,
thus charging them. Few feet are
absolutely pretty, and small shoe
will display this shortcoming quicker
than any other shoe, as it will have to
assume the shape of the foot in order
to be borne.
Then the question of personal COM
fort ought to weigh something in this
alleged era of common s$nse. French
women are the most particular women
in the world as to the fit of the shoe
and the perfection of all its details 1t
must be snug across the instep, must
fit the ankle without wrinkle, and must
be plenty long. They never use high
heels and sharp toes on their walking
shoes, but give their every joint all
the working room it needs. II New

In the time Of Louis XIV. there was
an actress engaged at the Theatre
Francais-Mlle. Gauthier-who could
break n coin between the fingers of
one hand, and roll a silver plate into
the form of a cup of conical shape,
No one could bear the pressure of her
hand, and only Maurice de SAKE, one
of the strongest men of his time, was
able to open her closed hand.
In the same century there lived in
England a woman, Miss Bette Thomp-
son, who could break chains with her
hand.
Miss Kerra, ayoung mulatto woman,
who appeared in most of the capitals
of Europe, vas, We believe, the first
to perform the feat, while hanging
with the bend Of her knees in a ira
peze, of holding man at his belt with
her teeth and turning him rapidly
round with her hands.
The same trick was performed moro
recently, among others by Miss Leona
Dare and Miss Carrie Wilton. II New

torIan Of the reign Of the French
King Louis ri. An aStrologer had
gained considerable celebrity, par
ticularly at the Kings court. After
the manner Of astrologers Of all
times, he had done a great deal Of
clever guessing, and, thanks to this
and to some lucky condolences, va
rious Of his predictions had been full
filed. 1t happened that he predict.
ed the death Of lady of the court
within eight days, and on the eighth
day she died.
This created sensation, and the
King was supe;stitious enough to be-
lieye that the charlatan was mas.

him, previously having ordered some
o. his attendants to throw the as
trolOger out of the window.
You who profess to be so skillful,
and to ioretell the fate of every one,

said Louis, blandly.

guessed that the King had some dire

upon superstition and credulity stood
him in good 81 cad.
