pert's Method, Operates On Child.

byterian Hospital in Allegheny, Dr.
Stewart L. McCurdy in 20 minutes

verely as was the daughter OF ]. Og-
den Armour, Of Chicago, on whom DR..
Adolf Lorenz performed his first great
American operation.
DR.. McCurdy put the child's thigh
through manipulations similar to those
which DR.. Lorenz employs, and finally,
within 20 minutes. every doctor in the
room distinctly heard the click of the
femoral bone as it slip into its proper
place. The replaced hip was placed in
the usual plaster cast and the child
will recover.

a Joyous Wedding Day.

III. Malleval, a Partisan fnancier
who is mixed up in some swindling
transactions, is an interesting char
acter. His lively youth resulted in
his being disinherited. He decided
to marry money and did it. And
then on the day of his wedding he
went out with his wife, took a cab,
vent to a certain gambling club on
the boulevards and told her to wait
outside. That was, it appears, in
the afternoon, and at 2 o'clock in
the morning the bride was still
waiting. When he finally arrived,
the ! bridegroom informed her that
he had lost the whole Of her "dot'
at play. According to the Paris
papers, that was but typical incl
dent Of his career.

Passing Of the Lightning Rod.

The day of the lightning rod is
passing. The governments latest
census returns show that Frank
Inns invention for protecting the
house is little used today. No cleo
trical manufacturing establishment
reports it among the products, and
SO far as the census expert has been
able to learn only one American
electrical engineering firm makes a
business of setting up the rods or
designing them. So far as large
cities are concerned, disastrous
lightning strokes are reported to
be more rare, and the decrease is ac-
counted for by the network of cleo
trically charged wires and other ap-
paratus with which the city is now
interviewer and surrounded.

CHINAMAN's WORLD MISSION
Choy Sci Ken Organizing Party to
Reform His Country.

Choy Sci Ken organizing Party to
Reform His Country.
Choy Sci Ken, nobleman, college pro
lessor, author and man Of wealth in the
Chinese empire, recently reached New
York on his world mission of organic
ing a reform party which, peaceably
if possible and by revolution if neces-
sary, is to seize the reins Of govern
ment Of the Flowery Kingdom imme-
Iiately upon the death Of the empress
dowager, says the New York Mail and
Express. AS she is now eighty-siX years
old the belief is warranted that the
event is not far distant. The reform
party intends giving to China liberal
government which, Choy declares, is
the only salvation Of the empire.
Choy Sci Ken is twenty-eight years
old, educated and an orator Of consid-
era BILE ability. He has addressed sew
eral meetings in the Chinese theater in
New York and has SO aroused his coun-
trymen that they have rallied to the re-
form standard with almost one accord.
The reform propa gandist visited ev-
cry city in the United States where
there is a Chinese colony during the
past eighteen months. He came here
from HongIsong to escape the wrath Of
the terrible dOWager, who sought his
head because he advocated the open
door" and liberal commercial policy
for China.
He is reasonable rather than a VIC
lent revolutionist, arguing that any at
tempt to dethrone the dowager and
place the present emperor in power
would be useless owing to the sinister
rulers influence.
He declares that the emperor is fl
vorable to the reform party and upon
the death of the dowager will if prop,
erly supported by men and influence
rule in reality for the Chinese as
against the Mongolians which through
the present Manchurian minister are in
control.
Public schools, railroads, electric
lights, trolleys and other Improvements
as we'll as free currency with all ma,
lions are among the planks in Choy
Sci Ken's reform platform.
He intends to visit all the cities In
Europe on a similar mission. In New
York, as in San Francisco, Seattle, Ia
coma, Portland and other cities, he has
met with gratifying success, and, ,ac-
cording to his own statement, he found
many who offered both money. aud
personal services to the cause of Chi
nese patriotism. Local Cinnamon have
greeted him with ELUSIVE welcome.

Drapery For the Bed.

For the young housewife who is
ever struggling for pretty effects
and yet has to think of her pocket
book a charming way of adding to
the daintiness of her bedroom is
suggested.
A simple and graceful drapery
which adds to the beauty Of any
style of bed is easily arranged.
1t consists of one length of what
ever material is chosen.
This is passed through large
ring of wood or brass hanging from
a staple in the ceiling or from
rod projecting from the cornice at
the head of the bed. The ends of
the material are drawn apart in cur
tain fashion and carried to the sides
of the headboard, where they are
held back by means of bands or
chains.
A few rods of cretonne in one
length will permit this style of drap-
ing.

Good Better Best,

A prosperous Cincinnati malster
signs himself &c. B. Best" and only
a few of his intimates know that his
full name is Good Better Best.
When his father came to this coun-
try from Germany good many
years ago, he wisely made haste to
learn the English language. While
studying that part of grammar
which treats of positive, compara-
tive and superlative he found the
letters of his own name preceded by
good" and 'sbetter." Just about
that time his wife gave birth to a
boy, to whom the happy father
promptly gave the curious name he
now bears.

Moldinus For Curtains.

The use Of holdings instead of
poles at windows is extending. A
new treatment has a short valance
of sheer drapery in figured design
falling from the molding across the
window frame, with straight hang
ings to the floor on either side of
the same material. Underneath and
close to the sash are short curtains
of similar weave, but plain tint, har-
monizing with the ground of the
other hangings.

Eseas For Changing Plain Room Into
Beautiful One.
The architect of home beauty is
the woman. 1t is the little personal
touches, evidences of feminine fore
thought and planning, that impart
the real atmosphere Of home. An
empty corner, an ugly niche, be-
comes an inspiration for woman's
ingenuity. A coy nook Of her Gre
alton is pretty note in the scheme
of furnishing. The tones may be
harmonized with the color scheme
of the room and embody pictur-
esque retreat as we'll.
Newer than the Turkish corners
are the East Indian hooks, says the
Philadelphia Times. One could
hardly say prettier or more artistic,
but their harmonies of vivid hues
blend we'll into a solid sweep of
mellowed beauty as unbroken as the
tints of a rainbow.
To drape an East Indian corner
the East Indian prints should be
used. The Merut prints of East
Indian origin are genuine importa-
tons from the orient and usually
range in price from 20 cents to IS
cents a yard. Curtains and Bur-
mese Merut, Lahore, Persian and
Calcutta panels are hung at avail
able spaces on the wall to suit the
artistic eye of the decorator. The
panels cost about $3.50 each. Kus
Kus fans fill vacant spot here and
there on the wall quantity and in
keeping with the East Indian
scheme of draping. Along with
these, says the designer, odd traps
and plaques of Moradabad or Ben
ares ware are placed with the dra-
peries for appropriate and decora-
tive background. These pieces, by
the way, come from Benares, the
sacred city of the East Indians.
The coy corner may be as elabo-
rate and extravagant as you please,
though four prints are sufficient for
a beginning.

To Save Tin Cans.

When a can rusts through where
the sides Join the bottom, it is not
necessary to throw it away, as the
holes may be effectually stopped by
covering them inside with a small
piece Of linen dipped in copal var
nish, the tin being previously thor
oughly dried. When the varnish
hardens by drying, the can will be
perfectly water tight.

probably follow the order of George

in the Bath Iron Works, Maine, went
about his work for several days. While
cutting off rivets he was struck in the
tongue by piece of steel. The wound
was very painful and an examination
was made, but the doctor could see no
trace of the material; still Mr.. Car
michael said he could feel the matter in
his tongue and could bite II. The doc
tor probed for it, and finally pulled out
the steel, which measured five-eights
