ChlorofOrming a Lioness.

Professor Gustavo Pisenti, of the
University of Perugia, has lately had a
thrilling experience in extracting a
cataract from a powerful lioness about
three years old. The animal was
placed in a suitable cage in the middle
of the menagerie, and the first difficulty
was the administration of an anaes-
thetic. The intervals between the bars
of the cage were filled up with cotton
wool, and a large packet Of gauze i'm
pregnated with c~hloroform vas placed
in the cage, the door of which was then
closed with a shutter. In about a
quarter of an hour a reconnaissance
was cautiously made, and the illus
trious patient was seen lying stretched
out, and apparently in a condition OF
deep coma. She was then dragged out
of the cage, and bound and gagged.
She was then placed on a table, but be-
fore the operation could be begun she
suddenly awoke, and struggled violent
ly, rolling on to the floor, where the
medical men with admirable GOODNESS,
but not without intense emotion, which
might easily be seen in their counte-
nances,' held her down while the ami
mails head was wrapped in a towel
stepped in sulphuric ether. The lion
ess, however, managed to free herself
from the gag, and partly from her
bonds, and gave a roar, which made the
majority of the spectators beat a hasty
retreat. But the ether overcame her,
and Prof. Pisenti win great pluck
dragged her into the cage again, where
the anaesthetic coup de grace was
given by means of another packet of
gauze stepped in chloroform. The
beasts head was pulled put through
the door of the cage and securely held
in position. Prof. Pisenti then operat-
ed with brilliant success. We have no
doubt that the professor had a more
serious time" than Artemus Ward
had in getting into the uniform Of the
days of his youth, and We congratulate
him heartily On having escaped a coun-
ter-operation by his formidable pa
tient. A curious feature of the scene
was the excitement produced among
the other administrators, bisons,
leopards, wolves, hyelas, monkeys-in
the m~enagerie, who all inhaled some
portion of the anaesthetics with which
the air was saturated.-The British
Medical Journal.

Montana Man Sheds His Skin.

HoH WIN SHeuS MS SKIN In its en-
tlrety once a year, and who has done
so regularly for the last forty-tbree
years, is n Of the ~curiosities that
Butte boasts of. The man.. M. Price
a fairly well-educated miner-is at the
present time engaged in the curious
pastime of skinning himself. The
method that he adopts is to first skin
his hands and face and then strip it
in an immense sheet from his body.
The process of skinning his hands and
face was completed recently, and it
came from the face like a mask, The
skin from the hands resembles a pair
OF gloves, and was exhibited on the
streets. The toughness is something
remarkable, and two men tried with
might and main to tear it.. They were
not successful, although the skin is
not thicker than the leather of a mans
street glove. Price talks freely about
the matter, although he is rather ten
der about any publication in the news
papers. Many physicians have ex-
amined him during the period Of skin
ming, but not one has been able to
solve the problem. In speaking of the
matter Mr.. Price said: My mother
told me that she first noticed the
trouble when l a six months old,
and regularly eTery year since then
have shed my skin. 1t is a phenom-
enon that no physician has yet salts
f%actorily explained, although hundreds
have made examinations and investi-
cations. The fact is that | shed my
skin, and that is all there is to it.
Regularly on the oath day of July of
each year | feel the premonitorv
symptoms, and on very few occasions
has it missed the Gath of that month.
The first thing l feel is nausea, and
then l know that | am in for it. The
skin becomes perfectly dead, and the
perspiration that should come through
forms in blisters under it, and the
whole thing becomes loose. | gener-
ally cut a circle around my wrists, and
with the aid of a lead pencil strip it
off whole for the purpose Of preserving
1t in the shape of a glove. l take it
off from my face in the same manner,
but I'M compelled to remove it from
my hair like dandruff. | took a long
walk this morning for the purpose OF
getting up a perspiration, and, as you
see, my whole body is blistered. ]
will strip it off today or tomorrow.
1t comes off in great strips, as you can
see by this photograph, which was
taken last year. There is no particu-
lar pain accompanying the operation,
although the new skin is very soft
and tender during the first week or ten
days. | have to lay off for about two
weeks each year to attend to it. My
children do not inherit the disease
from me. There is one of them, and
she is 8 years of age, and there has
been nothing of the kind ever no
ticed with her. Several years ago
was in San Francisco when l shed my
skin, and the doctors there preserved
it in its entirety and then stuffed it
l am a miner, but my work in the
mines does not affect my condition in
any way that | ear see. My general
health is good, even if l do have skin
to throw at the birds."-Denver Post

The American Manufacturers.

The idea of an exhibit of American
products and manufactures in st. Pet
ersburg in 1901 is favorably received
and commenced on in manufacturing
circles. Russia is the most inviting
field for American trade extension
in sight. That great empire is in the
early stages of prodigious development,
and a grand market is being created
there for the innumerable devices and
appliances for multiplying production
and decreasing its cost, as we'll as for
developing the splendid of
the nation. An exhibit such as indi-
Gated will give the Russian an oppor-
tunity of seeing and of inquiring into
the utility of American machinery and
of American wares of all sorts. In
the natural order of things America
will be feeling for a broader market
for her products within the next two
years, and Russia will be an important
outlet for the surplus manufactures of
the republic. Organized steps will
soon be taken to promote the st. Pet
ersburg project for American trade ex-
tension, and congress will be asked to
help it along with a substantial appro-
priation. If the exhibit should lead to
practical results in the way desired,
similar exhibits can be made in South
America and in other parts of the
world where the people have need of
the things which the United States can
furnish.-New York Letter.
