WERE VERsED IN SURGERY
Proof That Anolents Knew Almost az
Much About II as Do the Pres
ent Race Of Practitioners.

Digging into the Sanscrit Of the
"Atharva Veda," writer In the Lon
don Lancet discovers that a very good
imitation Of modern surgery was prac-
ticed In India In the third century be-
fore the beginning of the Christian
era.
The great Indian surgical and med
ical authority of that time was Sus-
hurta, whose pages are said to bear
comparison with the most up-to-date
treatise on the matter Of reparative
surgery, hygiene and preventive med
icine. "a surgeon we'll versed in the
knowledge of surgery" he says,
should slice of a patch of living
flesh from the cheek of a person de-
void Of ear lobes in manner 30 as to
have one Of it's ends attached to its
former seat. Then the part where the
artificial ear lobe is to be made should
be slightly scarifed with a knife and
the living flesh, full of blood and
sliced off as previously directed,
should be united to 1t so as to re-
semble a natural ear lobe in shape"
This is as good work as the sur
geons of the present day will do, and
again In speaking about infection Sus-
hurta says: HE falls an easy victim
to internal and external diseases who
drinks Of, or bathes In, pool of wa
ter which is full of poisonous worms
or is saturated with decayed animal
matter or is dehled with germs Of
vermin or decomposed animal organ
isms, or is covered over with the
growth of aquatic plants, or is strewn
over with withered and decomposed
leaves. or which in any way is rem
dered poisonous and contaminated, as
well as he who drinks and bathes In
the freshly collected water of a pool
a reservoir during the rains"

KING KEPT FULLY OCCUPIED
British Monarch Has Large Amount
Of Correspondence, With His
Other Duties.

Despite the assistance Of his secre-
taries the king of England has an
immense amount to do. He has, of
course, much private correspondence
with relatives and others Of too init
mate a nature to be confded to sec
retaries; and besides this, and the
notes he invariably makes for his
speeches, his majesty has every day
a great number Of public documents
which he must sign with his own
hand. King Georges writing is
easier to read than that Of his IA
Their, which was sometimes a little
difficult to make out owing to the
close similarity of some of the letters.
Queen Mary's handwriting is much
holder in design, and is freely orna-
mented with flourishes. Queen Alex
andra's writing, on the other hand,
belongs to an earlier period, when
small, neat, angular caligraphy was
in vogue, and of this style her males
tvs is an excellent example.

EASY RHYMINo GAME.

You may call it rhyming contest
if you like. But it makes a very
pleasant parlor game, and is surpris-
ly easy. Each player writes down
the name and the rhymes of some
easy form of verse, say the sonnet.
Care should be taken to choose
rhymes with good open vowels and
plain meanings. Reconcile and tech
meal words are barred and it is a
mean trick to set down such words
as "soap" and "cash."
The sheets of paper with the
rhymes and titles are then ex-
changed, and a sonnet is worked up
by each player. This should take
about fifteen minutes. The sonnets
are then read aloud amid much
laughter and enthusiasm.

No Profit In AIIIuatora.

The difficulty about raising alliga.
tors to supply the demand for the ami.
mails and skins is that they do not
attain full growth for about 100 years.
The skin of the six or seven-year-old
animal is available. however, for
many practical purposes. There is
one on a farm at Palm Beach which
measures Is feet in length and is said
to be about 900 years old. There are
several of these farms in operation at
the present time. but the industry will
not be really profitable until the wild
alligators become scarcer.

confession from a Washington woman
that she had broken into" the White
House receptions for years under false
colors. Mr.. Hilles would not disclose
the identity of the writer, whose in

read:
Il have been attending the White
House receptions for years, but l am
tired of using another persons ticket.
Will you please send me one for the
next reception in my own manner"
The coveted cards admitting guests
to the White House on the occasion
of the four big affairs of the winter
are much sought after, and especially
SO this season, since President-eleot
Wilson has intimated the receptions
would be abandoned during his admin
istration. Every description of sub
terfuge is resorted to in an effort to
obtain invitations which, since the top
heavy lists were cut down, have been
scarcer than ever before.
This particular appeal. however, was
the most unusual that has yet passed
under Secretary Hilles' notice. No In
formation was forthcoming as to
whether It would be successful.
