of perfection at the hands of Tagliacozzi another
Italian, who practsed during the latter half of the
sixteenth century. This really very skilful
surgeon, but the way he advertised and boosted of
his skill would nowadays hardly be considered eth
ical. In letter to of his prospective patients he
gives long list of persons who, he says almost
more satisfied with their noses than with those
which they carried before" And in of his books
he devotes many pages citations not only from the
prose writer's and the poets but also from the lives
of the saints to show the Importance of having per
fectly good seryceable nose.
The method Tagliacozz employed was much IN,
that used by the Vianeos, He usually TOOL
the skin to form the from the patient OWN
arm, for he found it extremely difficult to keep ,0
persons fastened together for the long time ncCes2
for their skins to grow together. Another c5jac
to the latter method the curious supcrsG
which held that If the person from whom the III
borrowed CHANGED to die first, the new
would promptly shriyel up and drop Off
Tagliacozzi very proud OF his ability ana quick
to resent any hint that the he supplied we're
not every bit good the original ones. Once
nobleman who had lost his nose in duel had Lew
made by Tagacozzi, but he could not get up rh9
courage to blow it for fear of tearing it off To prove
his patients fears groundess, the surgeon seized him
by the new and pulled him all around the house
The novel methods used by Tagliacozzi le
scribed in a book which he published at Venice in
1897. In order to give the new nose natural color
he advised the application of very hot water and
posture TO the suns rays several days. He thought

theless, had Elizabeth futile not been this
nation would not occupy the position in cul-
ture and learning it now does"
AS evidence that the brilliant qualities were
derived from Elizabeth futile and not from
her husband, DIR. Davenport says that of the
latters descendants by his second marriage
none of them ever rose above mediocrity.
DR.. Davenport has pointed out that in
order that the good qualities of Elizabeth
futile might be preserved it was necessary
that her descendants should marry persons
physically and mentally sound. If they had
married defective persons the good qualities
might have been swamped. DR.. Davenport
argues that in order to preserve the I'M
doubleday fine mental qualities of many of the
old New Englanders it is desirable that their
present descendants should make eugenic
marriages. AS it is, the old qualities are
liable to be lost through the intermarriage of
closely related persons of feeble physique
1t would be well for the New Englanders of
old stock to marry the vigorous immigrants
recently arrived from Europe. Instead OF
complaining that these immigrants are
swapping the old American stock, science
teaches US that they are the best hope of
saving it from extinction.
One of the most striking and peculiar cases
of the inheritance of a physical trait is "the
Bourbon nose" For over four hundred years
this remarkable type of nose has been among
the most cherished heritages of the royal
house of Bourbon. To-day the Duke of Orleans
and his family, who represent the French
branch of the house of Bourbon, regard this
peculiar nose as among the most priceless
of their possessions.
The Bourbon nose is strongly curved at the
bridge, very prominent and very long The
curve is somewhat Semitic, but the nose is
larger and more prominent than is usual in
that type.
The nose originated, as far as we can
trace it, with King Henry ", the famous
Henry of Navarro, the most popular king in
French history. The extraordinary long and
prominent nose of this monarch is largely
responsible for the expression of mingled
shrewdness and sensuality that marks his
face.

Henry ". down to the unfortunate Louis

How They Made Noses Out Of Arms Four Hundred Years Ago

of skilfu surgeons who made specially of perform
ing this operation for those who had been
fortunate to lose their in duels or in some
other way And ancient medical writings recently
brought to light refer to similar operations having
been performed several centuries earlier than this.
The first Italian surgeons to win fame for their
restoration of noses were named Vianeo, and were
natives of Calabria. They supposed to have
learned the art from the East Indians, although
think the Arabs may have been the of their
knowledge.
Their method to detach flap of skin from the
arm cut it in the form of a and apply it to the
stump Of the missing damaged nose. When the
two parts last grew together they cut off with ad
mirabe skill just enough of the skin of the arm to
fashion a nose resembling in size and shape the
one their patient had originally possessed.
Although the Vianeos wide reputation for

found fault with their methods and charged that their
noses were seriously lacking in durability.

The London eugenic baby proved to be a
girl and has been happily named Eugenette.
She is d very fair physical specimen, well
above the average of English babies.
One of the most interesting facts in the
science of eugenics, as taught by Dr. Charles
B. Davenport, the leading American author
ity, is that we inherit each of the traits in
our mental and physical make up from one
ancestor. If we have curly hair it comes
entire from some original ancestor, and is
not mixture of the hair of all our an
cestors. The many facts discovered proving
that traits valuable to society may be trans
united through eugenic marriages have led
the New York committee to offer these prizes.
Dr. Davenport has shown how the traits
of very remarkable woman named Eliza
beth futile, married over 200 years ago,
have reappeared in scores of her descend
ants making them the most distinguished
figures in American life. She was of great
beauty, commanding appearance, strong
WILL extreme intellectual vgor, of mental
grasp akin to rapacity."
On November 10, 1857, she married Rich
ard Edwards, of Hartford, Conn, very
handsome man and an able lawyer. In 1851
Edwards divorced her for infdelity and other
misconduct. Evil traits were in her BLOOD
for one of her sisters murdered her own
son and a brother murdered his sister, but
owing to favorable marriage only the bril-
liant mental gifts of Elizabeth futile were
transmitted to her descendants
or Elizabeth futile and Richard Edwards
tie only son was Timothy Edwards, who
took the degrees of bachelor and master OF
arts simultaneously at Harvard. OF his
eleven children the only son was Jonathan
Edwards, the theologian one of the worlds
great intelects and president Of Princeton
College. Among the descendants Of Jonathan
Edwards have been Jonathan Edwards, Jr,
president of Union College, Timothy Dwight,

Remarkable Facts Already DISCOVERED That Haze Prompted
Them TO Offer Prizes to the Man and Woman
Who Will Marry Each Other and Make
Practical Test of Eugenics

q 1NCE the announcement in this news
paper of the scientific project to bring
about perfect eugenic marriage very
widespread interest in the subject has been
shown. For instance, the Mount Morris Bap-
fist Church, of Harlem, has started regular
classes in eugenics, and similar evidences of
interest are reported in many quarters
The Sociological Fund Committee of the
Medical Review of Reviews of New York in
Guiding many well-known scientists and So
cial workers, has offered prizes to the eu-
genically ideal man and woman who will
marry. A prize of $500 will be given when
the pair of successful candidates marry, and
a further prize of $500 when the first baby
is born.
This newspaper invites its readers who
wish to enter this contest to send in their
photographs, together with their physical
measurements, weight, state of their health,
health of their parents, grandparents and
ancestors, and such other information as
they wish to give. The photographs and in
formation will be turned over to the COM
mittee.
Eugenics, the science of breeding fine
race, is receiving practical attention in Eng
land as well as America. London is greatly
concerned over the announcement that Mr..
and Mrs. Harold Bolce have produced a
eugenic baby. Mr.. Bolce is a welI-known
writer.
1t does not seem that in this case the par
ents could have satisfied the requirements of
the American committee. The mother in par
ticular is not an unusually fine physical speci-

XVIs had this nose. The nose came back to
left it again when Louis Philippe, of the
branch of Bourbon Orleans was driven out
of France in 1848.
The Duke of Orleans, who represents this
branch, is naturally proud of his nose, for it
appears to be all that is left of the makeup
relatives had it, and one of his uneles, the
Duke de Charities, was almost reproduction
of Henry w.
Here it is interesting to note that family
well known in New York society has a dis
tinctive nose that has been handed down for
many generations. Mrs. l. Townsend Bur-
den's rather prominent but distinguished
nose is an exact reproduction of that of her
ancestress, Evelyn Byrd, a noted Virginia
belle of Colonial days All the women of
the family have had this nose, and it has
descended to Mrs. Burdens two handsome
daughters.
Such little facts as these suggest the pos
sibilities of eugenic science. It is not, of
course, proposed by serious eugenists to per-
petuate particularly distinguished nose or
chin, but that they may be transmitted shows
that more important traits, such as great bod
lily energy or a brilliant mental quality, may
be transmitted.
Those who feel that they have beauty, tai
