SPOTTED LIKE A MISUNDERSTANDING
treatment at the Johns Hopki's Hospi-
tai is negro sailor who has developed
what is said to be the third known case
of disease termed by the physicians at
the hospital as "keloids."
The negro is tall, and, except for his
fffi elton with which he says he wac
not borD), appears to be 10 excellent
health. He went from the City Hospi'
tai 10 Johns Hopkins, it is said, upon
the advice OF DIR. Peasants, who is COD
pected with the stsfis of both hospitals
The patient is covered with Dumer'
Gus small tumors ranging 10 size from
Dir head to the size OF an apple. They
are scattered over the chest, the sbdo-
men. arms, wrists, ueck, legs, thighs
and even upon bis feet. There are
several large ones on his back.
These remarkable tumors which
are puzzling the Baltimore physicians
ere not fatal or even dangerous. Ibey
ere augmented, having brownisn ochre
color 10 them. Several OF them nave
been operated upon and taken out by
Dr.. Finney and are now being examln"
ed microscopicslly 10 order to study
tn .ir peculiar structure.
The doctors at the Johns Hopkins
Hospital call these tumors 'keloids.
They occasionally develop In negroes
ON scars, but this is only the third
case Oh record that has developed spon-
tsneously and 10 such size and num-
bers.
In 1867 DR.. Diehrinq, OF philadelphia,
exhibited g negress before the Phila-
delphia Medical Society with the ke-
loids encircling her neck, resembling
vast number OF unripe tomatoes.
10 1889 another case was discovered
in Philadelphia by DR.. Collins. This
was an old negro woman 80 years OF
age. who had been born 10 A RIGA. she
had great numbers of these extraordi-
nary pigmented growths in all parts OF
her BODY. Whenever one OF the &c
loids was removed from this old ne
press two or more returned 10 its piece.
II she was burned keloid appeared
in the scar. If she placed q mustard
plaster upon her back keloids appear
ed in the blisters. Keloids appeared
10 places where 1t was clsimed she mac
been logged when young girl.

moral Truths From MIR. WI.

This is an old story of the Chinese
Minister WI Ting-Fang, in a new
form. A reporter had been commits.
stoned by his newspaper to interview
Mr.. WI. Following his usual artless
Chinese custom Mr. WI asked the re
porter how much salary he received.
Zone hundred and fifty dollars a
week." he answered,
The familiar comment was at once
forthcoming. 1T is too much. 1t is
altogether too much. You are not
worth more than $50 week"
Some time afterward, while talking
with other newspaper men, the Minis
ter learned that the reporter had de-
ceived him, and that instead of re-
ceiving $3.50 a week he was paid not
more than $50. Accordingly the next
time he called at the Chinese legation
in search of information Mr.. WI thus
dismissed him:
you lied to me about your salary
If YOU will lie about such a thing as
that you will lie about anything.
do not trust you. 1 have nothing tC
say to you. l want to revise my for
mer estimate Of your value. Instead
of being worth $50 a week you are no
worth anything, sir."-Youth's Com

Chicago Is ahead Of as, IN fact, IN
the actual development Of bowling un-
der the new order OF things. There are
IN Chicago now nifty or sixty bowling
establishments on ground floors; there
are dozens Of bowling establishments
there on upper floors.
Here, including those of private
clubs. we have n considerable number
Of bowling places on the ground floor
but as yet only a few, perhaps not 50
many as half a dozen Of upper floors.
But we have some fine establishments
for bowling above the ground. In
Brooklyn there has been opened lately
an establishments with six alleys on
the second floor, and eight alleys on
the third floor. The latest upper-hoor
bowling establishment one with ten
alleys in a row, has just been opened
in this borough on the ffth floor Of a
business building In the hotel and

at the door Of this building a sign that

WISE WORDS.

Nothing Is gained by depreclatng the
difficulties OF any undertaking. To
look them In the face courageously,
and to estimate them fairly, will gen.
orally enable us to overcome them;
while, if they are hidden or Ignored,
they will, all unconsciously to our
selves, bar the way to success,
Home is the first and most import
ant school of character 1t Is there
that every human being receives his
best moral training, or his worst; for
1t is there that he imbibes those prin-
ciples of conduct which endure
through manhood
When you make q mistake, do not
look back at if for long. Take the rea-
son Of the thing into your mind, and
then look forward Mistakes are les
sons of wisdom. The past cannot be
changed; but the future is yet in your
power.
We are apt to measure ourselves by
our aspiration instead of our per-
Torrance. But in truth the conduct Of
our lives is the only proof Of the sin
certify of our hearts.
Every person is responsible for all
the good within the scope of his abili-
ties, and for no more, and none can
tell whose sphere is the largest.
Nothing brings more substantial JOY
than a days work well and honorably
and successfully done.
The high lights of existence are daz
cling, but the shadows are more agree
able in the long run.
Not wealth nor ancestry, but ho1
orable conduct and a noble disposition
/ make men great.
/ Jealousy is sustained as often b,
pride as by affection.
, The greatest homage we can pay t
! truth is to use it.

tie, a seat of Emperor Francis Joseph,
near Budapest, is a bronze figure OF
more than life size on a high pedestal

a walking costume, such as she most
frequently wore at Godollo; in one
hand a sunsh>de, and in the other a
few wild flowers, and she appears to
be resting after one of her long ex-
cursions. Her head is crowned only

Indlvidnalitv in Dress.

An English fashion writer says that
English women have no individuality,
and that half the women dress exact
ly alike, with a rose at the tip of the
rim of the hat, if roses worn in that
way are the fashion; a velvet bow on
the hair at the back of the hat, if vel
vet bows are being worn in that way
and never by any chance a red rose
if pink are being worn or black silk
bow to rest on the hair if the great
mass of people are wearing velvet. A
similar complaint might be made to
some extent in this country. Women
find it hard to draw conclusions in
fashions, to follow the fashion, and
vet not wear the identical article worn
by every other woman.-NeW York
Times.
