A simple method Of illustrating the
theory of Roentgen regarding the collec-
ton of light may be made in the follow
ing manner, as local scientist says:
Fold piece OF white paper Of ordinary
thickness, into the form of cone, clos
ing the small end tightly, SO as to exclude
the light. Place this cone over the globe
of an incandescent light, folding the
edges around the same in such manner
as to prevent any rays from escaping
which do not penetrate the paper.
Then darken the room as much as pos
sible, excluding all the light save that
furnished. by the covered globe, and place
your hand, with fingers extended, within
two or three inches of the latter.
After holding 1t in this position for a
minute or little longer you will be as
tonished at the result. Not only can the
circulation be plainly seen, but even the
outlines OF the bones will be discernible.
In the absence of an electric light
common lamp may be used with good re-
suits.

Another Advance In Surgery.

A quite novel surgical operation has
been successfully performed at Parma,
Italy, by Professor Verdeli, in the pres
ence OF all the physicians of the Parmese
hospital, and with very satisfactory re-
suits. The new operation was the wash
ing of the heart. 1t was the first opera
ton of the kind, and Professor Verdelli
employed the washing apparatus recently
invented by Professor Riva. After max
ing an operative ncision, Professor Yer
delli.frst cleaned the pericardium Of the
patient, a l2.yesr-old boy, of the puss
which has accumulated thereon, and then
proceeded to wash the heart with strong
solution OF soda biborate (borax). The
operation was very successful, inasmuch
as no further complication has arisen; the
boy is now doing very well, and is on the
way to complete recovery. Professor Yer
deli has received numerous congratula.
tions for his success with the new opera
ton from surgeons all over Europe.

Knew Who He was.

A little Irishman, who wore little pot
hat and short clay pipe entered q
crowded barroom, says the Chicago Post,
walked up to the bar, punched the pa
irons aside with his sharp elbows, lit his
short pipe at the cigar lighter, and then
walked out without word. The aston
ished barkeeper gazed after him in
amazement and audibly wondered who
he was.
The next morning the little Irishman
walked into the same place, thrust the
patrons aside with his elbows, lit his
black pipe and started out again. The
barkeeper was speechless with rage, but
as the little man reached the door he
recovered his voice sufficiently to cry ont
Say, who are your"
The little Irishman turned around and
said:
'sYou know me-"
Then he walked out. The barkeeper
said that he would lay for the intruder
the next day. AT about the same hour
he reappeared thrust the patrons away
from the cigar lighter, as usual, and lit
his short pipe. He was about to turn
away, when the vigilant barkeeper
grabbed him by the lapel of his coat.
"Say, who are you. anyway" he de-
manded.
ooh, you know mel" replied the little
Irishman.

white apron. "Who are you?"

The city council of New Orleans has
just passed law making the game OF
craps illegal, says Hdrper's Weekly. II
does not matter where it is played,
whether in the streets, in the club, or at
home, craps is specially singled out as
the most depraved gambling game not to
be tolerated anywhere.
The game is of New Orleans origin,
and over 100 years old Bernard de
Marigny, who entertained Louis Philippe
when he came to louisiana, and who
stood, 20 years ago, at the hea,i OF the
creole colony OF the state as its wealthiest
and most prominent citizen-he was en-
titled to call himself Marquis of France
was the inventor or father of "craps, y
and brought it in high favor as the fash.
ionable gambling of the day.
When he laid off his plantation, just
below the then city of New 0rleans-it is
now the third district, but was then the
Faubourg MarigDy-and divided it up
into lots, he named one of the principal
streets Craps" and explained that he
did so because he had lost the money he
received from the lots on that street
in this favorite game OF his.
1t remained Crap street until few
years ago, when protest was raised
against such disreputable name for a
very quiet and respectable street, especi-
ally given to churches.
The Craps-street Methodist church,
sounded particularly bad. After Bernard
Marigny's death, craps, as gambling
game descended in the social scale, and
was finally monopolized by negroes and
street gamins.
Some five or six years ago, however
some Chicagoans, who happened to be
on the levee in New Orleans, were struck
by the game as offering novelties to the
iaded taste OF dice players, and took il
home with them.
1t crept into favor at once in the West,
and craps" now RACES from the M;ssis-
sippi to the Pacific and no well-regulated
gambling room is without a craps
room. But while it has aourisbed else
where, it has been tabooed in lis birth
place.
And now, not content with the ordi-
nary laws against all gambling games,
the council has declared against craps
specially prohibited. and not to be played
for money even in ones back bedroom
with the blinds pulled down in front.
