NEW USE OF THE KANGAROO.


Surgeons ut Oakland, on the bay op-
poste san Francisco. have resortcd to
the use of kangaroo tendons to tic up
the fractured bones of n broken leg. in
order that the patient may have use of
his knee while the bones are knitting
together. says an exchange. He is a
paintcr and this is the second time he
has broken II bone OF his left leg i'm the
same place. ITO rest the fracture and
place the limb in Il plaster cast until
the bone kn.ts would destroy the use
OF the knee joint" said DR.. Stratton.
The knee had already become some
what stiff from the first setting We
nave decided TO make an ncision i'm the
leg as the point OF the fracture of the
bone and VIII bore holes In the broken
bones. Through tho holes we will draw
Kangaroo tendnns. and they Will hold
the bones together until they knit. with
out the use of plaster cast about the
Knee. This Will enable the knee to be
bent each day while the bone is knit
ting. Kangaroo tendon Is as stronc. as
silver wire. 1t is taken from the tail
~ Tho Kangaroo. and being animal in

does not have to he again cut open. as

day raised the price OF meats from

lowing wholesale packing houses on

d9Is cents a pound, and the dealers be-
lieve that IL will reach 10 cents before

SOME THOUGHTS OF A QUEEN.

The world viii continue TO be inter
ested i'm Carmen Sylvia as long as she
lives. Ii Is not alone the fast OF her
being queen. nor yet that OF her being
an author as well. wh.ch attracts the
worlds gaze 10 her: neither is It the
fact that her SORROWS have been many.
one is sometimes inclined to think that
her confidential attitude has something
TO do with it, her readiness TO share her
own views AMI emo1cns with the
world. She makes no secret, at any
rate. OF most OF them in her latest
book Thoughts OF a Queen" published
in French Here is what she SAYS
about women:
woman is expected TO give her love
freely. TO take care of a household and
TO educate her children; moreover, she
must be pretty. elegant, and lovable
Yet, in spite ( all this, men say that
women are weak. Among savages the
woman is a beast of burden: among
Turks she is regarded as a creature
who is fitted only for luxury. Eu-
ropeans claim that she is useful for
both purposes. When a woman gives
herself away she fancies that she has
given a whole world: the man, Low
ever. believes that he has simply ac-
qufred possession of new toy. A wo-
man would be stoned IL she began TO
do those things which a man of honor
may do with impunity. A woman VINO
is misunderstood is woman who does
not understand others. An unhappy
woman is like a flower exposed to the
wind for a long time she remains a
closed bud. and as soon as she begins
to flower she withers. Man often gains
his end through the brutal strength of
an OK or a bear: woman under similar
circumstances uses the tactics of the
timorous mouse or those of the mur
derous make that coils around its vic
tim. a woman's virtue must often be
very great. since there are many cases
where IL has TO suffice for two.
What she has to say of suffering is
worth considering.
A beast when Il su..ers goes off alone
TO some lonesome place II r. only man
who let's every one know when ne is
suffering.
The queen rorgets To merticn. how
ever. that out OF The spectacle OF suf-
fering. sympathy. mans richest posses
sion is born.-Harper' Bazaar
