CRITICISMS on the Rich.

Civilization is very complex affair.
So long as the laws Of the land are not
violated the rich mans private expend-
ttures are as strictly a matter to be con.
trolled by his own taste and Judgment
as the expenditures of the poor man.
Capital in this country in our genera
tion has been eminently and conspicu-
ously devoted to economic production
and has not to any appreoiable extent
been diverted and wasted in wanton
luxury. It is none of the publio's busi-
ness how the millionaire monopolist
spends his money, but it is in the high
est degree the public's business how he
has gained Especially how it came to
pass that he obtained the franchise or
public privilege or other favorable op-
pnrtunity by means Of which he has en-
sached himself. Review Of Review

NEW WAY TO CLOSE WOUNDS.
An Invention That Causes No Pain
and Performs the Work
Expeditiously.

A novel and most useful instrument
has been invented by DR.. Paul Michel,
a well-known French physician. With
it wounds on body can be stitched
effectively, quickly and without caus-
ing any pain to the patient. Hereto
fore wounds were stitched by hand,
and this operation was not only some
what dangerous and slow, but also de-
cidedly painful, says the ST. Louis Re
public.
The new instrument consists of a
forceps or pinchers, and of case or
sheath, which contains number of
nickel hooks or bands somewhat SINH
lar to those which are frequently seen
on the corners of cardboard boxes. A
slight pressure suffices to free these
hooks from the sheath, and within one
minute between 20 and 80 of them
can be placed on a wound in such a
manner that they will effectively close
it. The reason why they cause no
pain is because their tiny rounded
points only penetrate the epidermis,
and not the lower layer of skin. Other
advantages, which they possess are
that they can be easily disinfected,
that it is no trouble to remove them
from the skin after the wound is
healed, and that they leave hardly any
trace of scar.
DR.. Michel has received congratula-
tions from the most distinguished
European physicians, and his instru-
ment is being rapidly introduced into
leading hospitals.

FAMOUS LONDON BANK.
Depository for Money That Has
Figured in English Romance
and History.

If Londoners have any real senti-
ment to waste it should rather be
directed toward the approaching
though frowning and repellent front
age of Coutts' bank. The name of it
conjures up the thoughts of heaps
of gold second only in size and ampli-
tude to those of the Bank of England.
Is not Coutts' the largest private
bank in England, and has it not a
more extensive connection than any
other with the mobility and landed
gentry?" To possess ga snug bank
ing account at Coutts'' has been the
stock synonym for riches with all the
noyelists of the nineteenth century,
says the London Telegraph.
Great George our King opened an
account with the shrewd old Scotch.
man who not only founded a bank,
but founded family by marrying
each of his three daughters to men
of title. The duke of Wellington
was another of his most famous
clients, and DR.. Johnson and Sir Wal
ter Scott banked their moneys in his
keeping. The history of such an in
stitution, could it ever be written,
would be far more interesting than
any romance.
1t is understood that the building
will not be wholly destroyed, and the
most notable features of the interior
will, of course, be preserved. These
include costly marble chimney pieces
of the forid Cipriani school and a
valuable collection of portraits of the
friends of the founder of the bank,
while the dining-room is described
as being hung with Chinese subjects
on papers which were sent to Mr..
Coutts by Lord Mccartney while on
his embassy to China in 1792-95"

THE BRAINLESS MONKEY.
Interesting Scientific Experiment
Shows the Effect of Loss of
Gray Matter.

No convincing proof has yet been
given that any particular portion of
the brain is exclusively concerned in
intellectual operations, says Prof. G..
N. Stewart, in Popular Science Month
ly. Goltz, the most prominent repre-
sentative of the dwindling band who
still refuse to believe in the localiza-
ton even of the motor functions, has
lately published an interesting paper
containing the results of observations
on a monkey which was carefully
watched for II years after the removal
of the greater part OF the gray matter
of the middle and interior portions
of the left hemisphere of the brain.
The character of the animal, whose
little tricks and peculiarities had been
studied for months before the opera
ton, was entirely unaffected. All it's
traits remained unaltered. On the
other hand, disturbances of move
ment on the right side were very no
ticeable up to the time of it's death. It
learned again to use the right limbs,
but there was always certain clumsi-
ness in their movements. In actions
requiring only one hand, the rightwas
never willingly employed, and it evi-
IDENTIFY cost the animal great effort
to use it. Before the operation it
would give either the right or left
hand when asked for it. After the
operation it always gave the left, till
by a long course of training, in which
fruit of Jumps of sugar served as the
rewards of virtue, it learned again to
give the right.

His Little Contribution

One of the many stories told of the
late DR.. Wallace, M. P, is to the effect
that when the editor of a local paper
In the north asked him '.if he would
kindly furnish an article on "a light
theological topic" Wallace responded
with one bearing the title 'The Rela-
tions Between the Presbyterian Church
end Modern Thought" When set up
the article made 40 columns, and it be-
came a puzzle to editor and printer
how to get rid of it. They began by
using it in pieces, and whenever the
printer said to the editor, We've got
no leader" the reply was, ''Eh, mon.
Just sneck off about a column and q
quarter O. Wallace" In this way the
contribution was used. first working

Am Eighteen-Hour Recitation,

Prof. Arlini, of Naples, has just per-
formed remarkable feat. Some time
ago he offered to make bet that he
could recite the whole of Dante's
Divine Comedy" by heart. His abil-
ity to do this was doubted, and his
wager was taken up. A select au-
dience was invited to hear the pro-
fessor, who declaimed from eight
o'clock in the evening until two
o'clock the next afternoon. The re-
citer stopped occasionally, but it was
not because he had forgotten the
poem; it was simply to moisten his
tongue with sugared water. He~won
hs wager, for the audience had to
confess that he got through the Is 5000
verses, more or less, of which the
poem is composed, without the least
difficulty.
