Recent Triumphs In Surgery. Cleansing of the wound itself was al- most a surgical heresy a few years ago. Sr ouled bundages were the rule, and the hicker and more abundant the dis- Prharyes the more “laudable’’ they were BPonsidered.to be, Hence in’ the older works on surgery the so called ‘‘laud- pple” pus was as wuch a sign of safety itisnow of danger. Cleanliness of bstruments, how a2 prime consid¢ration, fas then entirely iguored. Oftentimes hé same instruments would be used at Pifferent times upon the dead as well as he living body, and a celebrated oper- or of that uuy was accustomed to hold is knife between bis teeth when his hus were temporarily employed in the cunc. If a cut healed rapidly, it was tarity sufficiently great to court com- hent. Now, the exact opposite is the The former result was rather an # cident of cleanliness than the deliber- acknowledgment of what should pve been the rule.

PERT PERSONALS,

Recipe for warlike Willie for twisting the lion’s tail: First get hold of it.—New York Press.

Mr. Labouchcre called the sultan a evr and a blot. Labby may have got his met- aphors mixed, but he meant well.—Cleve- land Plain Dealer.

Every woman in the land has a personal grudze against Mrs. Cleveland because that clever lady’s spring cleaning and moving are both done.—Chicago News.

Indianapolis is talking of haying a car- nival of sports. We want to bet on that frisky young athlete, Benjamin Harrison, for the 1,000 yards grandipap.—Chicage Dispatch.

If Cecil Rhodes doesn’t slide out of that Transvaal affair with a laurel wreath on his brow, then the outcroppings of the cur- rept investigation are very dceceptive.— Philadelphia North American.

The Prince of Wales'is reported to have recently had his skates on. In order to prevent possible misapprehension, it may be added that they were the kind used for skating upon ice.—Cleveland Leader.

Laureate Austin explains that he pub- lished his recent book of poems because the English people were wondering at his long silence. It is just as if a boy were to let

out a wild, fierce yell in order to disprove _ a report that he had been stricken dumb. —New York Mail and Express.

RECENT INVENTIONS,

Fountain shaving brushes, having a res- ervoir for liquid soap or water, are just out.

A new surgeon's knife is formed in three parts, held together by screws, so it can be easily taken apart for the purpose of clean- ing and drying.

The combination of a screen and storm door is accomplished by having removable panels made of wire screen, g or wood, as may be desired.

A recently designed spring bottle stopper has the operating lever extending over the end of the cork when closed, to assist in holding the cork in place.

A dustpan which will not spill the dust

after it is placed in the pan is composed of ahalf cylinder with sliding cover, which closes down on the edge of the pan. One of the latest patents in rein holders for buggies is furmed of two springs, one to clamp the dashboard and the other the reins, thus making it easily removable.

Realism In Literature. z

**The movenient for realism in litera- ture has given to the best current fiction ® verity and value as a reflection of the + times that the novel» of no other era i pcessess,’’ writes Droch in The Ladies’ Home Journal. “This is not saying, by any means, that our novelists are great- er than any of previous epochs. But never before could a reader of fiction ac- cumulate a vivid, true and varied pic- ture of so many sides of human nature, 80 many conditions of actual life. It therefore broadens the horizon of a ju- dicious reader in a way that books of travel never did. It ought to and oftén Goes broaden the sympathies of the reader so that the prejadices of class and nationality are broken down, and there is a more charitable ae of human nature which can’t ip being ‘different.’ ’’

Tommy (inquiringly)—~Mamma, is this hair oil in this bottle?

Mamma—No, that’s glue.

Tommy (nonchalantly)—Then I ex-, gect that’s why I can’t get my hat off. ~Chicago Record.
