Cupid Versus Cash.

While making his midnight collec- tion a Wayne avenue letter carrier was greatly mystifed recently when he discovered a new ten-dollar bill lying loose among the mail matter in the box. As even Santa Claus would hardly remember him in such an in formal fashion, the carrier turned in the money at the Chelten avenue post office the same night.
 Early next morning a greatly agi- tated young lady appeared at the of flee and explained that she had start ed out to mail a letter and pay the druggists monthly account the eve ming previous.

BUILD JAW OF SILVER WIRE
Philadelphia Surgeon Suggests Opera tion That Will Replace Loss of
 Bone.

Surgeons and medical students at Hospital discussed with great interest a remarkable operation suggested by a leading surgeon at clinic on Wednesday in which an artificial jaw, made of silver wire, shall take the place of one whose entire removal IS made necessary because of infection or death to the bone.
 Removal of the jaw sometimes IS necessary if the life of patient IS to be saved. It always results in great disfigurement as well as serious inter- ference with swallowing and speech, A surgeon attached to the hospital said the suggestion of using silver wire for building up an artificial jaw was an idea worth the most serious attention. He added:
 Under certain circumstances we can remove the jaw, but leave the peri osteum and muscle attachments. This new idea is then to take silver wire twist it into the proper shape, and cover it with the periosteum. Under good conditions I have no doubt that there soon will begin process or bone growth from the periosteum, which will form over the silver wire model, which will act as scaffold for the new bone growth. After a time we can begin to remove small sec tions of the silver wire as the new jaw grows stronger. The regenera- tion taking place from the periosteum should, according to all surgeons can surmise, form quite a good new jaw Philadelphia Public Ledger.

A Patriotic Shin Owner.

We can now ship hosts of troops with the greatest ease from all parts of the empire to the scene of warfare, yet in December. 1854, when Napoleon III offered to send re-enforcements of 10000 men to the Crimea, if we would convey them, the government was on the point of declining, on the ground that no transports were available for such work. It was eventually decided to ask some of the great steamship companies for assistance, and at the next cabinet Sir James Graham an nounced that this had been done. "Nr.

CHALLENGE OF PATRIOTISM.

This is the challenge of patriotism America needs every man at his best, and it is written in the plan of God for the ages that America shall not fail.
 Are the progress armies of the great republic less patriotic than the armies of Europe? The armies of Europe have banished intoxicants.
 Is America less patriotic than Chi. na? China has banished opium
 Is America less patriotic than Rus. sia? Russia has banished vodka.
 Is America less patriotic than France? France has banished ab- sinthe.-Daniel A. Failing.

WE CAN AND WE WILL.

"A few years ago l was up in the interior of China" says Bishop Samuel P. Spreng of the Evangelical church. Tt was about three years after they had determined to do away with the opium traffic. The opium traffic is as great curse, or was as great a curse in China, as the liquor traffic has ever been here, and the government de- termined to put that traffic away with in ten years. That was in 1906. Three years later in the interior cities you could not find an opium den except hidden away in the back alleys, in the little places, just where they have to look for the blind tigers and places Of that kind here. By the time the ten years are up that traffic will be plotted out among those four hundred millions of people. and they did that, they un- deFtook that, in spite of the fact, or in view of the fact, that nearly 33 per cent of their revenues came from the opium traffic. They let the revenue go and looked for other sources of rev enue that are honorable and honest and clean, to carry on their govern ment and let the opium traffic go And I say if the most conservative, the bulkiest, the biggest people on the face of the earth can put away the opium traffic inside of ten years, we Ameri- cans ought to be ashamed of ourselves if we cannot put down the liquor traf- tn dn are able to do it. we are not going to say that we cannot if we will. We can and we will, God helping us"
