CORK LEGS ARE MYTHS.
Information From an Expert Who Hat
Been in the Artificial Limb Business

Information From an Expert Who Has
Been in the Artificial Limb BUsiness.
From the New Orleans Times Democrat.
.The term cork leg, is misnomer,' said
a man who used to be in the artificial lint
business There never was any such
thing, and a leg actually made of cork
would be as unwieldy as a sawlog. The
up-to-date artificial limb is very thin
shell of weeping willow, covered with raw
hide, and some of them that come clear up
to the hip have been built as light as three
pounds.
''It is a singular fact that frst-class
leg, which Is supposed to have life OF
about five years, will be more than paid
for in the saving of shoes. OF course, the
false foot wears a shoe, just the same as
the real one but for some reason that has
never been fully explained, 1t isn't as hard
on leather flesh-and-blood leg will wear
out four shoes while its mechanical mate
is wearing out one, due perhaps to the
foot-gear never being removed at night
and the lack Of elasticity in the tread. The
best customer of the makers Is the govern
nent which pays for a new artificial limb
once every five years for pensioners MANNED
In war The price fixed by law Is $76
but scores Of old soldiers simply draw the
money and make the same leg do for as
long as fifteen years at q stretch. Artih-
cial arms are made very successfully now
adays, and certain amount OF action is
secured in the hand, even when the stump
reaches only a few inches from the shoul-
der With one of the styles, for example,
a man can lift his hat and replace 1t On
his head with surprisingly natural move
ment. The mechanism by which the false
hand is made to open and close Is con-
trolled by strap. which reaches to the

The trains to wedding dresses are now
being made Of transparent materials, such
as chiffon, tulle and muslin. with many
fiounces and plaitings and much lace trim
mings. These trains are very soft and less
heavy and old looking than brocade or
satin, and when the wedding day is over
they can be converted into the most de-
lightful Of evening dresses The same idea
is being carried out in evening cloaks. The
new thing this year in the way of dress has
been very extensive and elaborate mantles
for the evening. made of rich silks and
brocades are much trimmed with lace. and
fur. The cloaks Will still remain as large
as in the winter. but the material is chang
ed to the thinnest and lightest gossamer
and chiffon.

opposite shoulder. slight shrug does the
| work. and little practice renders it I'M
perceptible.
There has been wonderful improve
| ment in limb making during the last ten
years. and a properly constructed artificial
leg cannot be detected by the casual oh-
server. The chief difficulty with the old
! style was It's tendency to swing outward In
an arc of circle at every step. That has
been entirely overcome. Some years ago
when l was in the business at Chicago I
fitted out man who had lost both legs
and both arms in a Dakota blizzard When
l first saw him he was simply helpless
trunk lying on a cot in the hospital and
his deplorable condition had reduced him
to state of despair bordering on insanity.
L took great deal of interest in the case,
and fatter myself that 1 did fairly good
job. When got through with him he was
able to get up without assistance walk
about, feed himself, and do a hundred erd
one little things that changed life from a
mere blank to something really endurable.
When he found himself emancipated from
total heipessness he improved mentally and
now, dare say. he wants to live as long
as anybody. II
One of the great obstacles to successful
ltmb-htting Is the carelessness Of surgeons
in performing amputations. An operation
may be entirely successful from a surgical
standpoint, yet leave stump upon which
false leg can never be worn with comfort.
reamputatton has been submitted to for the
express purpose of correcting such difilcug-
ties. Every medical college course ought
to include at least one lecture with prac-
tical demonstrations by thoroughly scien-
tiflc maker of artificial limbs. It would
be of inestimable value to the students IN
after practice"

STRANGE PHILIPPINE PETS.
A BABY RhinOcerOs and n Performing
Sun Bear Cub.

IloiIo Correspondence New York Times.
One sees strange pets In these new pos
sessions of ours in the tropics. One that
amused us all very much during recent
visit was a baby rhinoceros that was be-
ing bro ught up by hand
Master what happens when one finds a
little rhiEoceros that had no mother% was
what the native who had the little one
asked my friend. who is there that has
killed the mother of the young one?" was
the guarded reply
1t Is a misdemeanor to kill these animals
except under certain circumstances. and
the natives had probably been playing high
1nks in the jungle. OF course. all knowi-
edge of the demise of the mother was alb
soluteiy denied. but the possible suspicion
that if the circumstances were found out
somebody would suffer brought the price
of the baby down to the very lowest limit
The animal was the personttcation or
ugliness The horns its huge upper jaw
were just about forming and its legs looked
for all the world like those of an oid-fasn-
ioned square piano. TWO teeth had already
made their appearance. and there were evil
denc.S Of others about to come. The daily
diet was supplemented by leaves that the
young fellow chewed in great shape.
But he dearly loved his bottle of milk.
and the fuss he made about II was truly
laughable Then, too, another interesting
thing he did was to set up a terrific whin-
ing whenever those who had visited him
walked away.
The drolest creature of all was Ma
layan sun bear that perfect running
river OF harmless merriment. He had been
picked up in the jungle as very small cub
and when on al-fours, his most infrequent
position. was about yard long and half
high He was an admirable performer
as a bped and the first sight of him was
enough to upset most peoples gravity as
he came forward to greet the stranger with
a rolling. lurching gait and a most absurd
resemblance to q miniature mariner in an
overcoat Of black fur and slightly the worse
for liquor.
