REBUILDING A MAN.
Artificial Limbs, Organs and Parts
and What They Cost.

and What They Cost.
"Not a great deal of a mans body need
remain after an accident" said a maker
Of artificial limbs, "for me to build up a
perfect man SO far as outward appear
ances are concerned. OF course the cost
would not be small. for these things cost
money. How much? Well, that depends.
II you had plenty of money and were to
DO SO badly cut up that everything that
can be taken from n n a and still leave
enough to keep the breath Of life going,
you would get yourself fitted up in the
best manner possible. If your means were
limited. you would be able to get fixed up
for a smaller sum.
"Ill illustrate. I would begin by fixing
you on n pair of legs. You can get these
for from SIS to $50 a pair. The high
priced ones are really works of art. They
have knee joints. ankle joints, rubber
buffers and q springy foot. With these
you could learn to walk SO that nobody
would know your legs were not the ones
bestowed on you by nature and could
dance and ride besides. If you wanted
only q foot, 1 could let you have one for
from S25 to $50.
"Thcn you would want q pair of arms,
with hands and various necessary nipple
ments. Suppose you had lost both arms
above the elbows. The two that I would
furnish would cost from 1925 to 1926. But
they would BIO working mombers, with cl.
bow joints, wrists and flexible hands. With
the hands you could pick up small and
light objects and even shake hands with.

cue rest md a holder for the reins when
you went driving. You might want q
hammer. saw, clothcsbrush and many
other things, all of which are prepared for
just such as you would be. The whole
outfit would amount to about $50.
"As to your head, that would have suf-
fered severely. Your hair would be all
gone, and you would want a wig. I
would give you the best that can be made
for $3.50. All your teeth would be gone
and your palate would be absent. The
palate would cost you SIS. but for the
best teeth I would be obliged to charge
you $50. Of course you would want q

that it would harmonic with the rest Of

One Of the most striking elements In
Chinese life is It's solidarity. Asisweh
known, the family has much larger
function than with us. The marriage
OF a son does not break in upon the
family life, but enlarges 1t, the da1gh-
ter.in-law becoming Incorporated IN
the family OF her husband. Several
generations may be welded together
An one home, the authority OF ue
elders becoming the more absolute
with time. Growing old is certainly
robbed in China of some of the terrors
IL has among us. The older man
grows the more weight is accorded 70
