Remarkable Work of Physician.


The latest American wonder Is
complete skeleton of the human
nerves, prepared after an incredible
amount of work and patience by DIR.
Rufus B. Weaver, professor of anato-
my at the Hahnemann college, Phlla-
delphia. There is nothing to equal 1t
in any museum in the world. The
nerves of the hand, the root, or some
portion of the human anatomy have
been seuarated from the body and
shown in the same fashion as the re-
markable skeleton made by DR.. Wea-
yer but no one has had the patience
to prepare a complete nerve chart, u.s.
ing as the material the actual nerves
withdrawn from the body. A picture
of the nerve chart has been sent to
the Museum of Medical Curiosities at
Loneoln's Inn Fields, London, and the
creator OF the chart has been con-
graduated by the great surgeons Of
London on having built up one OF the
most marvellous anatomical structures
of the age.
