Sells Her Skin at a Dollar an Inch.

A young woman living ON Mission
street makes a living by selling her skin
for grating purposes. A year ago she
first contributed little Skin to friend
who was in need of q whole hide, and.
finding that she could stand the pain
and that her skin was particularly
healthy, she concluded to profit by it.
She sent letter to nearly every ply
stefan and surgeon in this city and Oak.
land. calling their attention to the fact
that she had healthy skin for sale.
Since then the young woman has had
all the orders she could fill at very rea-
sonable rates. She charges 81 q square
inch, and usually parts with 20 to 80
square inches at a time. Altogether she
has had nearly seven square feet of her
skin removed from her body, and has
now got around to the second growth.
She is probably the only woman OIL
earth who has been hayed alive.-Sau

THE BEETHOVEN CLUB.


Concert at the Y. NJ. &. a. Hall Tuesday,
April II.
The following notice taken from
the Davenport Republican is but one
OF the many flattering press notices
the Beethoven Quintette club has re-
ceived since its organizations:
IF the initial appearance is any
criterion of future success, the path
of the Beethoven Quintette club
which made its debut at Library
hall last evening will be strewn with
roses from an appreciating people.
The reception given this newly
formed aggregation of musical tai
ent, despite the Indictment weather,
was Almost fiattering one. the seating
capacity of the hall being severely
tried.
The Beethoven Quintette club is
more than it promised to be. This
is the verdict of the musical and the
unsteady inclined world of Daven-
port. Pleasure beamed from every
face during the rendition of the pre-
gram, and the closest attention was
given throughout the entertainment,
each number being warmly encored.
Miss Sonntag's contralto solo, The
Day is Done: delighted the audience
beyond measure. To the encore she
| responded with a beautiful German
ballad. The cornet solo by Prof.
roenniges was one of the hits of the
evening. in which the soloi-t CON-
plctely won the approval of the audi
ence by his talented and artistic ex-
ecution. Davenport will hail with
pleasure a repetition of such an en-
gagement of merit by the club, being
in sympathy with the success of such
a meri6orious quintette, which has
organized as permanent institution
to promote high-class chamber music
from the great composers.
Tickets 50 cents-for sale at the
Harper house drug store and Thomas
drug store.
