THE DAILY EXAMINER,
REBUILDING NOSES,
Aluminium as a Foundation and How It Is Used.
In this era of reconstruction through which New York is passing even noses come in for their share of remodcling and rebuilding. So many people are aflicted with a disfiguring discase which eats away the bones of the nose and face that ‘‘plas- tic surgery’’ has felt called on to find means to restore broken or decayed noses jo their original beauty or even to im- prove on that.
Dr. Robert Weir was among the first to discover a practigal solution. He expcri- mented with some success in transplant- ing bones of living fowls to the human face One of his earlier operations was ronducted in a stuffy little Harlem flat. iiis patient was stretched on the table un- eer cther; her face was laid open and streaming blood, but the duck, not re¢eiv- ing due attention, had escaped unnoticed from the assistant. ‘‘ Now, doctor,’’ said Dr. Weirto a dignified participant, ‘‘oblige me by kalf killing that bird and Iet me have avout three inches from its broust- bone for this girl’s nose.”
Amid the growsome surroundings there were ten minutes ci vigorous excreise in catching the bird and reducing it to a state of imsensibility. Since then he has dispensed with live Lirds and hes turned his attention to gutta percha, rabber, sil- ver and gold for no. > bridges. All these failed beeause electric.) action Was gener- ated requiring further operations, Finally pure aluminium was resertcd to with sat- isfacitory rosulis. Now tae nose bone is made of that mets).
It has @ stout hook at the uprer end, by which it & cocaret to the bese cf the fere- hezd, while the otlicr ond is held ont from the face by two short legs, terminating in sharp spikes, which aro anchored in the bore, ‘Thre is no necessity fcr ugly scars, hecauce the operation is carried en entire- ly beneath the A long incision is made under the upper lip above the tecth, so that the whole flan of the face can be turned back like a m:ask or an old glove. Then, when the :
skin.
metal framework: is se- eurcd, the skin is dx.wn down again, and the nose tissue is shaped into a Grocian, Roman or puz® nose, as desired.
Seven years Dr Weir got his first ideas from French publications, but has since made many modilications and im- provements. Other prominent surgeons have followed his cxample, such as Dr. Abbe, Dr. Powers of Denver and Dr. Knight. The operation is comparatively simple, ond all have succeeded in restoring nosos, Which, if they are not of service in distinguishing bad odors from good, ur at least beautiful in looking natural.—New
ork Tribune.

A Blind Wonder,
Mlle. Melaine de Salignac, a blind wom- an, mentioned at considerable length by Diderot, was able to tell by the impression of the air whether it was fine or cloudy, whether she was in an open place or a street, and whether the street was open at the end. Having once gone over a house, she became so well acquainted with the different parts as to be able to warn others of any danger they were exposed to by the existence of a step or the lowness of a door. She could thread the smallest needle with great dexterity and could execute ev- ery sort of needlework. She understood music, geography, geometry and wrote with a pin by pricking a sheet of paper stretched on a frame and read what she had’ written by feeling the pin marks on
|} the other side of the paper.
“CAN A MONKEY SWIM?”
Dow “the Editor” Decided a Bet For an Anxious Inquirer.
All sorts of funny questions come over the telephone into a newspaper office. Somebody is always making a bet on some queer proposition or other, and the deci- sion is left in many cases to some of the papers. No sooner is the bet made than the men who have put up money or prom- ised to do so hie thei=selves to a telephone and ring up ‘‘the editor’ of the paper to which the decision bas been left.
Some of the propositions advanced are enough to muke a i.ule laugh, and some are sont over the tel phone just to worry the man who answers the ring and _ possi-
bly to catch him with some trick. The other day, for instance, some fresh boy
rang upa newspaper to ask for a decision on this proposition:
“ts it legal for a man to marry his wid- ow’'s sister?’’
The young man who answered the phone refused to *‘bite’’ and told the in- quirer that his question would be answer- ed through the columns of the paper if he would write it out and forward it with his name snd address. That is the rule in most offices. This particular question ney- er came, of course.
But the other night there came one that was. too good to lose, so the young man who received it answered it on his own ac- count,
‘*We’ve made a bot,’’ said the fellow who rang up te ottice, ‘‘and we want you to decide it.’’
‘This paper doesn’6 decide bots,’’ was the ex civer.
‘Never iind the bet then. the question, will you?’’
“Well, what is your question?”’
‘*Tt’s this,’’ came the answer. monkey swim?’’
What an easy one! The young man at the phone siniled happily as he put his mouth down close ta the transmitter and softly whispered:
** Just go down to the lakeand jump in. Then you'll find out all about it,”’
And then he gently rang off and went on with his work.—Chicago Times-Herald.

How Monotypes Are Made.
One of the most interesting of all the minor forms of the graphic aris is the monotype, which, by reason of the cle- ment of accident in the result, some- times reveals an unexpected beauty of cf- fect. The process is simple. It consists in painting a picture with plate printers’ ink on a metal plate. The plate is then put in @ press, a sheet of moistened paper is laid upon it, and the roller is applied. The ink painting is directly transferred to the pa- per, and the print gives the artist’s,draw- ing reversed. Unlike cssays in etching, or any of the processes of engraving, mezzo- tint, or lithograph, a painter may work with the tools he is accustomed to—brush- es. He may vary his methods by taking out lights with o rag, with his fingers, or with soft wood points, but he is not ham- pered by new tools or by difficulties con- cerning the preparation of the plate or the printing from it. There are no acids, no bitings, no first, second or third states, no expert printer to be depended upon, as in etching. It is in no sense a reproductive process, for the painting is entirely trans- ferred to the paper in printing, leaving the plate blank.—William A. Coffin in Cen- tury.
Foreign Flags In America.
The first flag to float over American soil twas the royal standard of Isabella, embla- poned with the arms of Castile and Leon. A white flag with a green cross was its companion. Some years after Columbus latided at San Salvador the Cabots plant- ed the banner of England and of St. Mark of Venice on the castern shore of North America. Inthe 400 years that have inter- yened since a variety of national flags have waved where now only the stars and stripes is the accepted emblem, Over Tex- as have floated the French, Spanish, Eng- lish, American and Confederate; in Lou- isiana, the lilies of France, the Spanish flag, the tricolor, the American and Con. federate fags; in California, Spanish, Mex- ican, Ltussian and American.—New York Journal.
