About three months ago at Harmon,

His skull was crushed, and DR.. f. g.
Hartman and two other surgeons gave
Linn up to die. \ piece Of his brain was
broken away from the main body of the
brain structure, and the skull covering
it was broken away.
After few days the doctors decided
to take heroic measures. The shat.
tered brain was cut away neatly aRG
dressed. \ healthy yearling calf was
tied down. her skull cut away and a
lobe of brain removed and fitted into
the cavity in Lentz's head. The wound
was dressed and trephined and the re-
suits awaited. The calls head was
fixed up with half a brain in il.
Both the miner and the calf have
progressed satisfactorily, and the man

CHINESE FACTORY GIRLS.
They Appear Happy and Contented In
Spite of Long Hours and
Small Wages.

A lady who has resided several years
in China draws an attractive picture of
the girls in the Chinese silk factories.
She says they are the gayest and
brightest of the native women work
ers. The factories are large, clean,
| carefully ventilated and well regulated.
The girls are charmingly dressed in
blue, with little decorated slippers, and
smooth hair. decked with flowers. and
silver-gilt or enameled pins, and each
has two mirrors, her hair brush and her
tooth brush. How much these are
priced are shown by the fact that their
forfeiture is the punishment for mis-
conduct. Some of the workers powder
their faces, though many of the coun-
try women have cheeks of rosy pink.
One factory, at Sing Chang, employs
900 native girls, with European fore
man and European general manager.
The work begins at $50 a. IN. There is
a ten-minute rest for light breakfast,
which is taken by the hands at their
working places, the machinery being
stopped meanwhile. At II O'Clock the
work is laid aside an hour for dinner,
which is eaten in large room. The
girls make common stock of their pro-
visions. Each girl has at her side, while
at work, little teapot in padded bas-
ket, and tiny teacup. She drinks tea
frequently, without milk or sugar. and
in small quantities. The working day
is trifle under nine hours. In one de-
partment where the cocoonS are
stripped of their outer covering, and
dropped into separate baskets, accord
ing to their quality, the work is by the
piece, and many women work only
few hours day. Wages average about
II cents a day. In the next depart
ment the sorting is more precise, and
here the wages average / cents a day
throughout the year. The spinning
room is pretty sight with its row of
blue-robed girls. In preparing the CO.
coons for the spinner, each cocoon is
brushed until the end of the thread
appears. Six cocoon threads go 10 make
the final flament, and each spinner
works with. 36 cocoons in a pan before
her. The children here earn five cents
day, working from eight a. m. to five
p. m, while the women earn about
eight cents a day. In the finishing de-
partment there is the same attention
to neatness of appearance as in the rest
of the factory, the girls being scrupu-
lousy clean and tastefully dressed.
Neatness is taken as an evidence of in
telligence, and no slovenly girl could
find place in the tilature. The last
department of the factory is the pack
ing room. Here the skeins are packed
marked as to quality, and wrapped in
white cotton for shipment to the mills
of Europe to be made into fabric.-Los
Angeles Times.

AUTOMATIC GRAINING.
Specially Prepared Paper, Made IN
Germany, witch Acts some
what Like a Comb.

Thirty years or more ago style OF
wall paper was in fashion which repyc-
scented the grain OF wood. Properly
paneled and vanished, it gave fair
imitation of various kinds of wood.
The new "graining paper" which is
being used in Germany, and to a slight
extent in America, is a different thing
entirely. II is a mechanical device, in
tended to perform automatically the
service commonly done with combs in
a skillful workman's hands. 1t removes
part of the material that has first
been applied TO the woodwork.
The surface to be grained is painted
in oil color, as customary, and when
ready to be treated is covered with "A

The automobile Trust.

The automobile trust gets its work in
early. 1t is the first TO avail itself of
the new Delaware law encouraging the
formation of trusts. and il contributed
$3,762 as incorporation fee to the reve-
nues of that state. As the automobile
is now and will continue to he a luxury
for some time to come. the combina-
ton would seem to be somewhat pre-
mature, but its promoters evidently
acted upon the principle first come
first served" Fortunately the demand
for the automobile is not yet so great
that the trust can put up prices. The
future success of the automobile must
depend largely upon low prices.

The anablcps, or star gazer, fish of
the cyprodont family, found in the riv-
ers of Guiana, Surinam and Brazil, has
each of its eyes divided into an upper
and lower portion by an opaque hori-
zontal line. This gives it in effect two
pupils in each eye, one suited for seeing
in the air and the other for seeing in
the water. The fish is in the habit of
swimming at the surface with its head
sometimes above, sometimes below, the
water line. The common whirligig
beetle (gyrinus). which spends its time
circling round and round on the surface
of the water. has eyes modified in ex-
actly the same manner, evidcntly'for a
similar purpose. These eyes are COM

in most insects along with the COM

SHE SAW PEARL.
Phebe Ann Was Satisfied She Saw n
sister in a Cage of
Monkeys.

II is not often that human being
will approach cage of monkeys, and
recognizing a long-lost relative there
in. have the courage of conviction to the
point of declaration. Yet this was done
not long ago by girl of tender years
and Senegambian lineage. Phebe Ann
is brief. squat, black of face and sedate
of demeanor. She is a home or country
bred negro who acts as attendant for
the heir of a Georgia family of impOr-
lance. She decided she had seen sis
ter and gave voice to her belief.
The family lives in the country on a
large plantation. During the early
spring months change of base was ex-
ecuted to city where there is a respect

all her limited life on the plantation
and was a source of considerable worry
from her wells of surprise over every
thing she saw in the city. AT last sis
ter of the mistress said she would take
the little pickanniny and give her one
good scare and have it all over with. She
took the negress to the zoo.
Phebe Ann backed away from the ele-
phant, the Nbra and the four-horned
OK in dismay. She wanted none OF
them. So far the fright had worked
well. and it looked as if the youngster
would be ready to stay closely at home.
But a surprise was coming. The two
drew near to a cage of chattering mon
keys. Phebe Ann cut loose with a
shrek of JOY and fled to the cage. She
made eager voice to be permitted to
enter and was woeful when denied. The
experience was related that evening
around the supper table.

spICED ROSE LEAVES
Something for the Girls to ne Get
ding Ready for Christmas
Presents.

This is the time to begin picking your
Christmas presents, girls IL does seem
queer, doesn't IL, TO plan for December
in June, but IL you want TO get ahead
in your holiday work you will be wise
to take this summertime hint.
1t hasn't anything to do with fancy
work. No need to try eyes and patience
bending over troublesome embroidery
stitches and such things. There really
isn't any work about il. Those future
presents are growing right this mo-
ment all around you. What you save to
do is merely to pick them off the bushes
and-but of course you want to know
about it from the very beginning.
Well. start in saving rose petals. The
country girl really has the best of It,,
because by the end of summer she can
have a store of rose leaves that would
make any city girl enyious. But even
if you can't find roses amid the bricks
and mortar of your city home surely
YOU have some friends out of town who
own rose bushes. Ask them for the
petals. and if you are persistent, with
what flowers you can gather yourself,
by fall you should have fragrant col
lection.
Beginning in June the leaves should
be gathered, dried slowly in the sun
and packed in cardboard boxes. All
during the summer. when you can get
hold of bits of thyme, rose geranium
leaves. sprigs of lavender, sweet clover
blossoms. indeed any scented thing
from field to garden, TO add to the rose
petals. Between the layers of roses
leaves sprinkle lightly little ground
cinnamon, allspice, few Tonga beans
and, if you happen to have on hapd a
stick of japanese incense, crumble II
upand toss among the leaves and spices
BY the end of summer that box ought
to be as sweet as whole florists shop
And don't you see what delicious mix
ture YOU have-better than sachet pow
der at eight dollars pound-for max
ing up into muslin bags?
This is where the Christmas presents
come in. There couldn't be anything
daintier or or more acceptable than ;
little sack of gauze or tarletan filled
with those rose leaves. tied with brigh
ribbon and mailed to your friends as ;
holiday gift.
Probably you will have an old sum
mer frock of lowered organdie tina
you can cut up to make bags. Then
won't cost you for anything but thu
ribbon.
Try this scheme. Make the bags an!
size or shape you fancy. They are SUR
to be as sweet as can be. and they viii
give more pleasure than the fussies
piece of fancy work you could design

into the proper shape to fit panels or
other parts, is then forced evenly
against the wet surface by means Of a
brush. All of this last coat of pigment
is thus removed, save that which is
opposite the markings on the paper,
which is an exact Photographic repro
duction from a fine example of the
original wood. The markings are
chemically prepared and thoroughly
non-absorbent, while the remainder of
the paper absorbs readily. After the
surface has thoroughly dried it is var.
nished, thus bringing out the grain and
holding it permanently.
At present the paper, which is put up
in rolls four yards long and &c inches
wide, is made to initiate several styles
of oak, four styles of walnut and one
each of rosewood, maple, German and
Hungarian ash. mahogany and marble.
1t is alleged that the paper can be used
so times on water color, with care, but
25 times will give much better results,
while on oil color the paper can be used
fewer times

BLUSHING A DISEASE.
Rush of Blood Due to Ercuthophobia
or Erythophobin. Says a
French Expert.

The general idea that blushing is due
to fullness of blood in the brain is in
correct, according to the new theory
of French expert. II arises from the
relaxation of the arteries of the face,
neck and breast, thus allowing an extra
quantity of blood to rush to the skin.
Those arteries have in their walls a
layer of rings of muscular fiber, which
contract or relax according to the con-
dition of the patient, and so permit the
arteries to become more or less full of
blood. When they are extra full, which
occurs in weakness, the patient bushes.
Blushers are more liable to rcddcn
in damp or stormy weather than in the
cold days of winter or the hot days of
summer. If this glowing of the face
were the result of emotion, why this
difference? fit be due to weakness the
fact assumes the appearance of proba-
bility.
There are two closely allied causes
of blushing. One is named "ereutho-
phobia;" that is the ordinary cause
weakness, and the extreme sensitive
ness and other conditions caused by it.
The other is designated "erythopho-
bia," and is the fear that one will blush
unconsciously at awkward moments.
The latter is a peculiar form of the
disease. The individual in question. al
though not given to blushing, becomes
gradually possessed with fear that
he will do so at some inopportune time.
and this fear grows upon him until it
completely masters him and makes him
grow red in the face when there is not
the slightest reason for it.
At the most simple question the color
rises and he is placed in the most abb
surd situation. lie is looked upon with
suspicion, because other people accept
his confusion as consciousness of guilt;
he recognizes the fact and, of course,
his condition grows worse. Weakness
is responsible in this case also for the
deplorable state of things, for when
the sufferer is taken in hand and gets
"braced up" he smiles at his former
fears
1T must be very strong emotion that
causes flush to come to the face of a
really healthy man or woman. What
ever they may feel they will not show it
any more than they will show fear
when confronted by great danger. In
the latter case there is no doubt about
the danger; it is fully understood that
there may be feeling of fear within,
but it is not shown by the face. A sim
liar remark applies to the sense of
shame under reproach. That feeling
wSl not be betrayed by a blush, because
the individual is not afflicted by the
disease.-Pearson's Weekly.

Scientific study of Dreams.

Psychologists have undertaken the
scientific study of dreams. When the
olfactory sense of sleeper is stimu-
lated by an odor, such as that of hello
trope, not only does he dream of smell
ing violets," but visual images of flow
crs appear to him. If the experiment is
prolonged the dream vision becomes
complex and filled with strange i'm
agery. \ vibrating tuning fork held
near a sleeper's ear made him dream of
lion roaring, and when little salt
