Surgeons Sutures.

Modern surgery employs dozens Of
different kinds of thread for sewing
up cuts and wounds. Among them
are kangaroo tendons, %horsehair, silk,
and very fine silver wire. The short,
tough tendons taken from the kanga-
roo, which are used for sewing severe
wounds, are particularly valuable and
have saved many lives; they hold for
about a month before they break
away. Silk thread will hold for much
longer, sometimes six months, while
the fine silver wire is practically in
d~estructible. Thus a surgeon is able
to select a thread that will last as
long as the wound should take to heal,
and will then disappear entirely.-Sci-
nee Siftings.
