ya1ue Of Toes In walking.

The idea that the lesser toes are neces-
sary in walking is generally entertain
ed, and it has been surprise to Euro
pean physicians to learn that amputa-
tion of all the lesser toes Of both feet
has been followed by complete recovery
and the restoration to usefulness of both
the feet operated upon. The feet healed
slowly after the operation, but very
steadily and without unpleasant COM
plications. The operation was perform
ed, and in little more than year and
a half the patient danced all night and
experienced no inconvenience whatever
on account of having only one toe on
each foot. She rides wheel, plays ten
mis- and enjoys every sport that girls of
her age are fond of. The cause of the
trouble was originally chilblains, which
was neglected until it produced con-
traction of the muscles with the most
intense pain, which was at times SO
severe that she could not enjoy the
necessary amount of sleep. Surgeons are
of the opinion that great deal of need
less suffering is endured which might
be relieved by extremely simple opera
tions on the feet.-NeW York Ledger.

The Southern Cross.

After you have known the Southern
Gross for awhile and get on speaking
terms with it your respect for it grows.
When we first met it, writes e. w.
Harden to the Chicago Post, we were at
sea and were keeping good hours. By
8 o'clock all of us would have turned
in. When the Southern Cross first comes
above the horizon, it lies over on it's
side, and it is not straight in the heav-
ems until midnight. OF course none of
us would sit up three hours to see the
cross right itself in the heavens, and so
we did not see it as it should be seen
until one night in Colombo.
We had been out to dinner and did
not go on board our ship until midnight.
The moon had set, and we were rowed
out from the landing wharf in one of
those chronological exhibit boats which
the Ceylonese had at the World fair,
the outrigger kind. A big Poninsular
and Oriental passenger ship was weigh
ing its anchors as we passed, and as we
got on the quarter deck of our ship the
liner went by with hundreds of electric
lights cleaning over the water When
it passed out of sight, we caught sight
of the Southern Cross, high in the heav-
ems, standing straight with our horizon,
and it was as brilliant and as beautiful
as we had harn led to expect

Art of Making a Mustard Plaster

To put on a mustard plaster is not at
oil difficult, but to do it in the best way
requires some care and skill. In the
first place, remember never to give
cold mustard plaster to a patient. To a
weak or sensitive person the shock is
often great Either mix with very hot
water, or, better still, have plate put
where it can get warm while you are
mixing. Having everything ready at
hand, mustard, -four and spoonful of
molasses, with a bit of old muslin or
linen-an old handkerchief is the best
thing for the purpose. Stir the mustard
and flour together first, making the
plaster stronger or weaker with mus
tard as you have been directed. Add
the molasses and then the water until
the smooth mass is about as thick as
porridge or poultice. Spread your cloth
on the warm plate, using the middle
portion Of the linen and leaving mar
gin on all sides which is to be folded
back at the edges. Put a second cloth
over the whole, SO that the mustard is
entirely hid between the two covers and
keep on the plate until it is necessary
to apply the plaster. Philadelphia

Rebuke by General Washington That
Evidently Frightened the Owner.
Major William Pierce left behind
him a partial record of the debates in
philadelphia which supplement those
of Madison, Yates and King; also the
following anecdote:
When the convention first opened at
Philadelphia, there were q number of
propositions brought forward as great
leading principles for the new govern
ment to be established for the United
States. A copy of these propositions was
given to each member, with an injuno-
tion to keep everything profound se-
cret. One morning, by accident, one Of
the members dropped his copy of the
propositions, which, being luckily pick
ed up by General Mif1iin, was presented
to General Washington, our president,
who put it in his pocket After the de-
bates of the day We're over and the ques-
tion for adjournment was called for the
general arose from his seat and, previ-
Gus to his putting the question, address
ed the convention in the following man
ner: .....a.-. ...
"Gentlemen, / am sorry to find that
some one member of this body has been
SO neglectful of the secrets of the con.
vention as to drop in the statehouse a
copy of their proceedings, which by ao-
cident was picked up and delivered to
me this morning. / must entreat gen.
tlemen to be more careful. lest our
transactions get into the newspapers and
disturb the public repose by premature
speculations. know not whose paper
it is, but there it is (throwing it down
on the table,. Let him who owns it take
it. !" At the same time he bowed, picked
up his hat and quilted the room with a
dignity so severe that every person
seemed alarmed. For my part, 1 was
extremely SO, for, putting my hand in
my pocket, missed my copy of the
same paper, but, advancing up to the
table, my fears soon dissipated. l found
it to be the handwriting of another per-
son. When 1 went to my lodgings at
the Indian Queen, found my copy in a
coat pocket which had pulled off that
morning. 1t is something remarkable
that no person ever owned the paper. -

The self made man is by no means
solely the product of modern times.
Columbus was a weaver, Franklin was
a journeyman printer, Pope Sixtus V
was employed in his younger days in

ploWman, Esop was slave, Homer was
a bcggar, Daniel De Foe was apprenticed
to a hosier, Demosthenes was the son
of cutler, while Virgil was baker S
son. Ben Jonson was bricklayer, Ger

Cook commenced life as a cabin boy.
Haydn, the musician, was the son of a
poor wheelwright, Fizarro, instead of
going to school, was sent to keep hogs,
Kirke Whites father was q butcher,
and Keats father kept livery stable.

HAPPY LOVE.

While they sat before the fire
Nothing more did lie desire
Than to get q little higher
If he could.
And his heart beat high and higher.
And her look grew shy and shier
; When he sidled up close by her,
AS lie should.
Then he ventured to inquire
II her sister, Jane Maria,
And her mother and her sire
We're quite well,
And from time to time he'd eye her
As though he would like to buy herr
And his bashfulness was dire
For spell.
Then his husky throat grew drieF
When he told her that the squire
To himself would gladly tie her
II she would.
Might he now go ask her sirei
And he thought he would expire
When she said to his desire
That he could.
