TRUTH CRUSHED TO EARTH.
Sad Effects of Too Much CandOr in
an AristOcratic Mansion.

Two fair young girls sat In dainty bou-
doir gazing into each others eyes, says the
New York Herald.
1--WE are such good friends, Marcia" said
one, land we afford to say to each
other just what we think. Now, l have such
a splendid scheme. Suppose we start out to-
day by telling each other the exact truth,
without regard to any question of polite
ness
How perfectly lovely, Lobelia," cooed the
younger girl of the two. Lets begin right
away. What do you think of me?"
81 think" said Marcia, that you are al
most as pretty as you think you are and
when you don't try to be you are the most
charming girl in the world
''How awfully good of you,'' rejoined the
other, 'tand do you know that when you
came in was thinking that you looked Just
like one OF those big feather busters which
had taken a notion TO walk? Only your feet
are so very large that the illusion was not
quite perfect"
The two disheveled young women, with
their faces cross lined by scratches, were
taken out of that aristocratic mansion five
minutes later and hurried in an ambulance
TO the nearest hospital

SHE WAS TOO SLOW.
A Street Car Episode I'm Which tho
COIored Sister Was Ahead.

It was in Delmar avenue street car going
west at 6 p. m. There was the usual crowd
OF hangers on"-by which is meant those
who hang onto the straps to preserve their
equilibrium. AS usual, many of the hangers
on were Of the fair sex. street car gailsntry
among men having gone clear out Of style,
says the st. Louis Post Dispatch.
A fair young creature took pity on a stout
old lady, and rising courteously, offered her
her seat. Before the old lady could avail her
self of the offer, negress, black as the ace
of spades, slipped in front of her and sank
down into the seat with eonuented grunt
Some Of the passengers laughed at her
nerve, some expressed their indignation
aloud but the colored lady was not faxed
When the young woman who had relinquished
her seat reminded the usurper that she had
given it up to the old lady, the occupant Of
it calmly rejoined:
"Yo' white folks is foolish. Oar amt none
OBJ desc yer cyar seats preserved. Dey Is
free. Yo don't own no seat in dis cyar
When ah sees er seat ah mos ginerally ticks
1t mahself. OATS de way ali does. Cullud
folks laickes ter sot down dess same as de
white folks"
And she held the seat against all comers
while none of the men were gallant enough
to give their seats either to the old stout
lady or the young martyr to charitable
impulse.

Tropical birds have been successfully In

Boston Traveller. Disliking to keep his pets

food inside. The birds soon began to build
nests outside and rear their young among
the trees. Two pairs Of South American par

raised brood of young, which, with the old
birds, passed safely through the exceptionally
severe winter. In their wild life, the yellow

TRANSPLANT A NERVE.
Successful Operation at Grand Rap
ids ON a Victim OF Paralysis.

The sciatic nerve OF dog has been trans
planted to the wrist of man in hospital in
Grand Rapids, Mich, with excellent results
The absolute success Of the operation was
just made known after the patient announced
that he had had a sensation on his paralyzed
hand over the mended nerve
The man was N. Graybiel, a saw mill la
borer of Caledonia, who was badly cut by
saw on the right wrist, paralysis resulting.
When the patient and the dog had been put
under the influence of anaesthetfcs the
bruised portion Of the nerve was cut zyEay
and the ends were trimmed squarely. Then
more than an inch and a half was taken out
and then surgeons turned next to the dog.
From the animal the sciatic nerve was re-
moved and cut into a length corresponding
to the pieces removed from the mans wrist.
1t was about half the size OF lead pencil.
1t was laid next to that of the man, end to
end and two holes were bored in each, SO
that silk sutures might draw them together.
A similar operation performed on the
uInar nerve, after which the incision was
closed. The struggling ends of the nerves
had been hard to find and the operation had
consumed two hours.
In a week the patient was able to feel
slight sensation over the mended nerves.
Then he announced complete control of his
hand The operation had been successful
It was performed by DR.. r. Peterson, of this
city, in the presence of and with the assist
ance of House Physician Culp, of St. Marks
hospital, DR.. Grabiel, Of Caledonia, and DR..

WANT TO MEET YALE.
English College Athletes Favor an
International Race.

LONDON, Dec. 6.-As already ca
bled, the feeling in Oxford athletic
circles in favor Of an international
varsity match next year is very strong
In regard to the admission Of profess
SIGNALS into the amateur ranks of the
London Athletic club, Oxford athletic
men took very decided stand, prac-
tically threatening that if 1t We're con-
tlnued, Oxford university amateurs
would withdraw and have nothing to
do with the leading amateur club,
mad would, so to speak, act for them
selves. Similar feelings are reported
from Cambridge, where also the idea
of meeting team from Yale and Har-
ward finds full favor.
