THE LADY AND THE UMBRELLA.
Not Every woman So Lucky ~ the Heroine
Of This Tale.

In the storeroom that every railroad
maintains for the safe keeping Of lost ar
ticles left in It's cars by forgetful passen-
gers there are always to be found hun
dreds Of umbrellas. But not every UNI
brella left in the cars is lost long enough
to find it's way to the lost department; it
may fortunately be recovered sooner.
Here was a woman who had just stepped
from an elevated railroad train to find 1t
raining. and thus reminded:
Obi my umbrella she said. and turn
ing to the train, which had already started
along. she added: @Wait a minute!' a re-
quest by the train UNDECIDED.
And yet this woman recovered her UNI
brella in q moment.
Here II is said another woman. who
was travelling with her. had got of the
car after her. and had gathered up her
friend's. umbrella with her own as she
came along.
So this forgetful passenger recovered
her umbrella promptly. but not all are
so fortunate; thousands OF umbrellas left
behind by passengers go TO the lost depart
partments every year.

TEACHING BY MOVING PICTURES
Surgical Operations and Nervous Diseases
Before the Camera.

One Of the new uses to which moving
pictures are put Is teaching. and at least
one house dealing in films publishes q list
Of some hundreds intended for class room
use
Most peculiar of all are the pictures Of
operations intended for display in hos
pitfalls and medical colleges. In fact 1t il
explicitly stated that medical and surgical
films are restricted to exhibition before
such institutions and cannot be leased
except under strict guarantees that their
use will be 30 limited.
Perhaps. however. the general public
would not care to sit through q vaudeville
show and at the enc as the house was dark
ened read in letters Of light upon the screen:
Removal Of a myxomatous tumor Of the
thigh or "~E1tirpation Of a bilateral ex-
ophthalmic goitre.'
The catalogue, which describes these
films and which promises many more than
are contained in the issue for this year.
describes them in great detail. One series
consists Of half a dozen operations all Of
the same general nature. the 'Extirpation
Of e~ncapsuled tumors.' and in all more
than one-fifth Of a mile Of film Is needed.
Surgery is not alone in being thus illus
trated. Medicine has its pictures. more
particularly to illustrate the diseases in
which there is a characteristic walk. Varis
u forms OF paralysis where the diagnosis
is dependent on the gait are shown in detail.
The pictures OF such a disease as paralysis
agitans show the characteristic rightly
of the body when the sufferer is walking
and Of the face muscles when talking.
An unusual series illustrates the effect of
beri -heri IN the putivaa ~ Rorna0.
Moving pictures also have their use In
solving problems OF agriculture and public
health. The dealers in films

The possibility Of teaching geography
in this way is easily understood. and the
motion picture camera has invaded most
parts OF the civilized world. Even the
religious field is not neglected and the at

Zoology offers a list of subjects that
ought to charm any child into forgetting

from polar bear fishing to camels crossing

have been made in the famous wild animal
