Remarkable Feat in Surgery Performed

Remarkable Feat in Surgery Performed
by a French Physician.
At the Bicetre hospital in Paris, says
the London Daily News, the we'll
known surgeon, M. Landry, lately per-
formed a curious operation on : work.
man of Belgium nationality. The
Belgian, it appears, got drunk a short
time ago and was taken to the police
station at GENTLY when in a state of
utter helplessness. While he was in
the cells another drunkard. a mechan-
ical engineer named Machant, wa
brought in in a state bordering on
delirium tremens. Machant was in q
terribly excited state and he attacked
his fellow prisoner with extraordinary
ferocity, striking him, and, horrible to
relate, biting off both his cars.
When he came to himself Machant
became very penitent and asked to be
taken to the bedside of his victim, who
was now in the Bicetre hospital, ia
order to ask his forgiveness. DR..
Landry, who was there, said: sShoull
you like to give him back his ears?"
Certainly" said the man. ssThen,"
said the doctor, "let me cut a couple of
small slips of flesh from your arm and
it can be done" The man consented
and the doctor did as he had suggested.
The pieces of flesh he shaped as well
as he could to the likeness Of a pair of
ears and joined them to the wounded
places. According to the latest ac-
counts the operation has been a COM
plete success.
loot Your iIorn!
Here are two incidents with a moral:
A boy was sent to town to sell some
potatoes. He returned at night, and
threw down the bag and said. surlily:
';Nobody that l met asaed me fer po-
tatoes. Business must be awful dull!''
In the same town there was a boy who
went about, bawling at the top Of his
voice: Fish, fish-fresh fish," "What
a dreadful noise!!" said an angry WON
an. do you hear me?" asked the boy,
politely. "Hear you! You car be heard
a mile away!' WELL" said the boy,
placidly, "that's what Pm hollerin'
for. Fish, fsh-fresh fish," If you
want people to appreciate your worth,
you must let them know what you
can do.

Cicero was the greatest book col
lector of antiquity. One Of his letters
is extant in which he urges Atticus, a
learned friend who was compelled
from poverty to sell his library at C
ton, not to dispose of the books at
public sale, but to keep them until
the writer is able to purchase them,
Cicero adding that he is saving all his
rents for that purpose.

The Way in Which They Care for aud
ManaGe Their r,cks.

The Way in Which They Care for aud
Manage Their ilnciss.
Sheep farmers in England do not all
follow the same methods Of care and
management Of their foes. SAYS John
Jaclzso |. o. Ontario. In sc.ne sections
where they have shaded permanent
pastures the sheep are allowed to oar
at large for a portion Of the season. Ia
other parts of the country they are
folded in hurdles summer and winter.
In some cases they are folded on
grass land. and moved every day; in
others they arc Kept i'll folds. the grass
being cut and fed il -ac!.s-ia TIL case
they are moved atr~gular intervals, SO
that in either case by this system the
land is regularly aid evenly marured.
And again. in other eases. the land is
sown with vetches; tle sheep arc then
folded on this land, the veto g being
cut forward of the fold, and also fed IA
the racks. Another thing the tloc.i
masters arc very particular about is to
use nothing but Il iirst-cla.s ram, even
in the tloc,ss that arc cnlyl,cpt for wool
and mutton. They attend tae liz
sales and buy tho best they car get. l
know Of q breeder that sold laot year
at the Cirencester ram sale forty rnas
that brought enough money to pay the
rent on a good farm of eight hundred
acres. and the most of these rams
would be bought for crossing.
But to determine just how far we
can follow the English practice of
management in our foclzs we must
first consider the different circu,n-
stances in which we ere placed-our
hotter climate in summer. the more in
tense cold in winter. tac saallncss of
our hocks, cost Of labor, value of the
product. etc. Yet in many ways, to Il
certain extent at least, we would do
well to follow their example in the
care and management of their flocks.
And, while the lot u and severe
frost may be against us to some extent.
our climate as a whole is ahead of the
English climate for the health and
growth of sheep.

Then Present brought out the royal
robes and babe him put them on.
The prince looked at the robes and
wondered.
"These were once mine." said he,
land never did l think to wear them
again. Whence came them?"
"They came neither by land nor sea;
but as they once were yours, so are
they now" replied Present.
The prince clothed himself in the
royal robes, and there he stood as
lately and noble as any lord. But
how shall the people know that l am
indeed a prince" said he, when I
have no crown to wear?"
Then Present brought forth the
golden crown from the cupboard where
it lay hidden, and placed it upon his
head. and then in truth he felt himself
a prince once more.
but" said he, chow can a king gov
ern a kingdom with no scepter to show
his royal power?"
Then Present brought forth the
royal scepter and placed it in his hand,
and now at last he looked the king he
was.
'And now come . said Present, land
together we will go up to claim the
kingdom thatis yours" Then even as
h spoke Present cast aside her rags,
and lol she was clothed all in cloth Of

There Is another reason for Premier
Ribots observation-disclosures, perhaps,
since he has an American wife. Nine.
Ribot was born in Chicago, of American
parents. Her father was Isaac w.
Burch, who arrived in Buffalo some
where early in the '30s. Buffalo was
but small town then, and as he took
a stand in banking circles, he was well
known and dearly beloved by all of the
prominent men of his age. He learned
his business in the Albany City bank.
Watts Sherman, who later on became
partner in the firm of Duncan, Sherman
& Co., of New York city, was then CASH
Ter, and among his colleagues were
Charles A. Garfield, who remained fifty
years in this bank, and Francis l..
Tows, who came to Buffalo in the en-
ploy of railroad, and then went to
Chicago as treasurer Of the Chicago,
Rock Island & Pacific railroad, and ul-
timately returned to New York, where
he recently died worth millions. At this
time Isaac Sherman also lived in AL
bany and later on went to New York.
where his daughter, Mrs. Bradley-Mar-
tin, survives him. Almost all of these
men were destined to make money, and
when the western fever was at it's
height Mr.. Burch went to Chicago and
became a millionaire.
He married Miss Turner, of Albany,
one of three sisters renowned for their
beauty and accomplishments, the other
two marrying respectively Erastus
Corning and John V. l.. Pruyn. Two
daughters were born to Mr.. and Mrs.
Burch, Minnie, now Nine. Ribot, and
Hattie, now Mrs. Morgan, of Detroit.
When Nine. Ribot was but a young girl
Mr.. and Mrs. Burch became divorced,
and at this time Mr.. Burch went abroad
to live, taking his eldest daughter with
him. Mrs. Burch ultimately became
the wife of DIR. Pomeroy. of Detroit.
and at last accounts was still living in
Detroit with her younger daughter.
Mr. Burch never married, but continued
to live abroad, and travelled extensively,
