isn't many morrows distant when SIM
ply the vital parts of some men-and
women-will be strolling up and down
this earth guised as perfect and com
plete human beings, all as the result of
the now swiftly soaring genius of body
part making. And the pitied unfortu-
mates who have been able to take adj
vantage Of the result of this soaring will
be able to tire out an infinite number of
fellow beings who have missed the cru
city of buzz-saw, thrashing machine,
and railway catastrophes. There's
many man to-day gracefully walking
the streets whose real legs and feet,
arms and hands were long ago left in
the amputating chamber of horrors So
wonderfully far is this marvellous spirit
Of practical counterfeiting of human
parts being developed that after all the
mechanic may outdistance the alchem-
list toward the solving of perpetual life
for mankind.
The making of artificial limbs has, in
fact, become fine art and a by no

ing and repairing. Many Of them have
the work done on the premises, a por-
ton of it being performed by artists
working at their own homes and receiv-
ing their orders from various employ
ers in the trade. One curious fact is
that this unique handicraft is often
hereditary.
Much exquisite workmanship is ex
hibited in the making of the leg Of the
more expensive sort. The craft has de-
rived it's knowledge, Of course, from
surgery, SO that the study of limb is
a study in anatomy. The action of the
knee and the movements of the numer-
Gus joints in the foot are simulated by
the skillful use of tempered elias
tic cords. The movements of the nat
ural joints are reproduced so faithfully

ly are inclined to furnish arms that are
much too complicated, particularly for
the laboring classes. The arm is con-
structed much after the principle of the
leg. and is manufactured principally
from leather and steel. It is held firmly
on the stump by an improved form of
shoulder cap SO constructed that in car
rying an object the weight is thrown
wholly on the shoulder. Strong bands
pass across to and connect with small
er piece that encircles the opposite
shoulder, passing under the arm, at
which point it is well padded. The ell
bow may be swung freely or set at any
angle. To accomplish the latter small
button is pressed after the limb has
been fiexed, when 1t will remain in that
position until released. Movements of
the fingers are effected by pad on the
inside of the arm. BY pressing the arm
against the side this pad is forced close
to the arm, thus by a connecting of
springs operating the fingers of the
hand. The hand is manufactured so it
will close by springs and be opened by
the pad, or vice versa. For business

The mechanism of a foot and leg is call
ed upon to perform limited operations,
but the operations demanded of the
hand are almost infinite; and, however
perfectly the wrist and finger joints
may be initiated, they remain utterly
inert unless supplied with and directed
by continuous impulse from without.
Opening and closing the fingers is all
that can be effected by simple pressure
against another object or general
movement of the entire arm. A SER
yiceable substitute for an arm and hand
must, therefore, be sought for on other
than an anatomical basis. To meet the
case some very handsome and exceed
ingly ingenious contrivances are to be
seen. One consists of a sheath, or
socket as it is technically called,
made Of English willow, canvas, and
leather. and lined with some warm fab
rio, into which the stump of the severed
forearm is to be inserted, and the
weight of which is distributed by
means of straps passing through a
band on the upper arm and thence
crosswise round the chest. A hollow
screw or catch-spring is let into the
end of this socket. by means of which
any one of a number of tools can at
will be attached, and with which the
owner can subserve the more common
purposes of daily life.

A DANGEROUS Ice-Chest.

The northern fishing vessels are &C.
customed to rely for their supply Of ice
upon the icebergs themselves-a dan
gerous, if convenient, resource. An
iceberg is an uncertain quantity, and
very narrow escapes are related by the
crews returned from the fisheries. The
schooner Elwood lately arrived from
Alaska with twenty tons Of halibut
packed in ice. She sailed from Seattle
northward, and went to the Muir Gla-
cier for ice.
A big iceberg was encountered while
passing through Icy Straits, and select
ed for service. Thirty tons Of ice were
to the schooner during the day. AS the
tide fell, the berg began to roll, the
reef forming a pivot on which it re-
volved. Then suddenly the vessel listed
heavily to starboard, and it was dis
covered that it had been anchored over
a spur of the iceberg. Night was com
ing and the situation grew more dan
gerous.
The crew were ordered into the boats.
Resting on their oars at a safe distance,
all hands watched the schooner, expect
ing every moment to see it roll over and
disappear. AS the tide fell, small
peak of ice showed itself on the other
side of the vessel and it was found
that the berg had caught and hemmed
the schooner in.
For three-quarters of an hour the
fate OF the schooner hung in the bal
ance; then without any apparent rea-
son, she plunged suddenly forward into
the sea, came right side up, and an
chored out of reach of the foe.
The crew rowed- back to the vessel,
and lost no time in getting away from
the rolling mountain of ice. At mid
night the spur which had so nearly
caused the destruction of the Elwood
was the highest peak Of the berg
which had performed complete revo-

REVEALED IN A DREAM.
How Doctor Diagnosed a Case and
Cured His Patient.

One of the most unaccountable adj
ventures in the phenomena Of the lives
Of the physicians ever recorded was re-
lated by DR.. Charles Bockman, of AS
toria, l.. l., at a meeting of the Amer
can Medical Society Il this city Tues
Nay afternoon The scientific men pres
ent were much interested in tie strange
freak of nature the practitioner dis
closed. They believe it new and valua-
BILE evidence regarding the much-dis-
cussed opinions on the conditions of the
mind or brain in sleep, which is also
subject of strong human interest.
''It seems to me-" said DR.. Bockman,
after introducing the subject to his lis
teners in a formal manner, that it is
truly remarkable occurrence when a
physician makes clear diagnosis of
mysterious malady in dreamland. Yet
have done so-and done so to my utter
amazement. When, purely characteris-
tic instinct, examined into my dream
and found it as spokesman of fact, |
was stricken speeches., but since /
have come to the conclusion that the
phenomenon is not mysterious or even
strange. l was called to attend a little
baby suffering the most rigid spas
modic commissions, the cause for which
found impossible to discover. l first
saw the poor little infant on Sunday
and by Tuesday had become perfectly
nonplused as to what to do for it, fur
Their than to administer temporary re-
lief. I thought of nothing else than the
poor little ones sufferings all day Mon
day, and retired that night with the
child's remarkable symptoms mentally
photographed on my mind.
Tuesday morning when I arose had
been to see the little patient in a dream;
had discovered the trouble and con-
ceived simple treatment for it's cure,
which l had administered with entire
success. Upon calling at Mrs. Lock
woods, the child's mother, this morn
ing, I stepped to the corner of the room
in which the cradle stood, and raising
the infants foot observed the little rose
colored spot l had seen in my dream.
In an instant, almost before l knew
what I was doing, l drew slender
pointed lancet from my pocket and
quickly punctured the spot, when out
came a needle three-fourths of an inch
long, head first. New York Morning

papers or documents an apparatus is

Such an arm can be fitted to those hav-.
ing three inches or more of stump, and
provided it retain a healthy degree OF
force and rigidity it will enable the
wearer to raise his hand to his mouth or
forehead, and to take his hat off his
head. These arms are made very stout,
and can do service in carrying heavy
valises, baskets, bundles, ETC., together
with holding the lines in driving. The
hands are constructed with or without
wrist movement, as desired, owing tc
the class of work that will be required
of them.
The fact that a person can write with
an artificial hand and arm furnishes a
subject for thought that has been dwelt
upon by the wisest, most thoughtful Of
men with only the result of utter battle
ment. The fingers of an artificial hand
are capable Of but two general motions
or actions-namely: that of closing upon
the pen and of releasing it. Not at all

short, is written. Any trick connection,

inches of stub of arm and the-after

arm, hand and fingers is totally i'm

the moment he takes up the pen in the
artificial fingers. This matter has now
become so common among the craft as
to attract no more attention.

hide, and car-spring rubber, and weigh
only 31b to 4 pounds. They cost from
$40 to $125, according to the purse and
fastidiousness Of the buyer, and are u.s.
ually warranted for five years. The
upper portion of the thigh socket Is
shaped and fitted to the stump so &C
curately that bearing is obtained up
on all sides alike, thus evenly distribut-
ing the weight of the body. In order to
give additional strength and prevent
their splitting or being damaged by
water, these legs are covered with calf
skin rawhide, so tightly and neatly
drawn on as to resemble the natural
limb. This rawhide is then covered
with a flesh colored waterproof cement
which forms hard, CLASSY surface, so
they can be wiped off with damp cloth
without injury. The best artificial limbs
will easily sustain a weight of from 400
to 500 pounds.
There must be just as little mechan-
ism as possible in order to lessen the
chance of a hitch somewhere and the
consequent modification to the wearer.
Every joint is frightened to a nicely.
The wire springs, two on either side Of
the ankle joint, that impart natural
and elastic motion to the ankle, no mat
ter whether the foot be turned up Or
down are covered with buckskin to pre-
vent squeaking. The lower one of these
springs serves to bring the toes back
to natural position after they have
been bent upwards either in stepping on
the toe or an uneven surface. By an
arrangement of the cords and springs
the leg can be moved backwards or for
wards on the ankle joint, while the foot
remains fat upon the floor. This move
ment enables the foot to accommodate
itself to any position it may be placed
in when walking. BY covering the bot
tom of this artificial foot with soft
sponge rubber the step cannot. from it's
sound, be distinguished from that Of
the natural limb.
1t is far more difficult to construct an
arm than leg, owing to the manifold
uses required. Manufacturers general
