Mercy is not to be expected here, and tact is supopsed to be unknown among such people, except among rs in selling their goods. The following incident happened in the Jewish quarter in Boston last. winter, and is worth telling, bécause it commends human nature, especially the human nature found in the slums: A child was born, in, s short street where nearly all the signs upon the stores are printed in Hebrew characters. The parents were very poor and very proud. In the neighborhood was a Christian mission, and although Jewish childrén attended singing and sewing classes within its doors, some of their parents preferred to starve rather than accept its charity, and the family in which this child was born was one of that class. The father and mother pecssistently refused all aid, although there was no coal in the house and no money for food. ‘Then for some reason, probably pride, they refused help from people of their own religion. All the dwellers in the neighborhood were exceedingly poor, and could ill afford to give. charity; but here was a starving family and a dying babe, united with stubborn pride, and something had to be done. So a purse was made up by these poor people out of their petty earnings and divided into three parts. Each little sum was intrusted to different Jewich tradesmen. That same day, one of their small tradesmen climbed up to the povertystricken tenement, and represented himself as a coal agent. “Can I sell you some coal this morning?” heasked, opening thedoor. The man. shook his head apathetically. “But,” replied the improvised agent, “I gif you drust. One mont—tree mont —all you want. I drust you.” “Ah!” answered the man with surprise. “Why do you trust.me?” “You haf a good name,” said the agent. “I must introdooce mine peesness.” ; Séon a load of coal was on its way to the house to warm the mother and her infant. The coal dealer had hardly left before a man from a butcher’s, shop near by came and repeated the drama of charity. Then, not long after, followed a new milkman, profuse with offers of “drust,” who promised a quart of milk a day until the baby could get better. Thus was the family saved from freezing and starvation. . Now, this happened in what isknown as the slums. -This delicate way of meeting a crisis was not the act of a refined and aristocratic philanthropist. As the narrator told the writer: “It was the act of dirty Russian Jew -peddlers.” One can almost pardon the dirt shown.—Youth’s Companion. WORK OF VISITING NURSES. ‘They Take Care of the Sick Poor of the City and Teach Principles of Health. “To take care of the sick poor and of those who can pay but little for the service of a nurse, to teach poor people the importance of cleanliness and how to care for their sick, how to make their homes habitable by good ventilation, how to allow the health-giving rays of the sun to enter in through washed window panes, thus bringing light and sunshine to suffering souls cast down by sorrow and disease.” This is the aim of one of thé most benevolent chariti-s, the Visiting Nurse Assotiation of Chicago, and this is what is accomplished by its dozen nurses under the direction of the board of 32 of Chicago’s most influential and intelligent women, of which Mrs. James L. Houghteling is president. If the walls of their office, 907 Masonic Temple, could speak they could tell stirring tales of hundreds of homes into which the nurses have gone, transforming dirt and disease into cleanliness and health; of hundreds of bread~ winners in the stock yards district whose. lives have been preserved by the patient care of the nurses, of 25 sick women and children in the Hull house district who have been visited and cared for by one nurse alone a day, and, more thrilling and pathetic still, of scores of poor incurables who have been refused admission ‘to the hospitals, whose tedious hours have been brightened by the cheering voice of the nurse, and whose pain has been lessened by the medicine she always carries with her—neither nationality nor religion being regarded. The directors are obliged to devote ‘much time and do careful planning to ithe city. They have received constant and ‘substantial assistance from many of our wealthiest citizens and from numerous clubs and circles, Each year the work grows, as its possibilities are infinite, and this season an effort is being made to bring the needs of poor and suffering women more prominently beforé the eyes of their more fortunate sisters.—Chicago Chronicle.

Mitiest Wherein ‘kaythiny: from an Bye to an Ohsolete Skeleton Is Quoted. “Almost every large American city has “I thought Borrowall and Tene ar __ EST. IN 1860 BY N. P. BROWN & CO, HUMAN PRAQMENTS _ American articulators of the frames of individuals defunct are up in arms against the pauper’ skeletons of Eu‘Tope. Native bones are quiet and depressed and the demand is for the products of the French and German markets. First-class American skeletons are a drug on the market at $812.50, and are in every way as serviceable as the Gailic or Teutonic article. A’recciit Frenchman, who happened to depart from this world of sorrow with.a full set of teeth, is offered at $25, ordinary imported skeletons going from $20G 27.30, according to the number of teet], they are shy. Purchasers cannot be fooled by false teeth, The only super’ iority.in the foreign article is in the matter of complexion. Frenchmen and Germans who have shed all ‘of themselves, except their bones, bleach better or their survivors are able to bleach them better. In the matter of articulation the American workman is perhaps the superior of the European artist. but he cannot get the tints and the refreshing shades cf complexion so much admired by skeleton experts, or those who desire such articles for household ernamentation. There is a general feeling that the duty should be increased to a prohibitive point to protect this infant industry. The Frenchman already referred to is nickel rhounted and hitched together with fine wire, but he is not a little. better or happier looking than the American, who sits next to him in the show window, save that the latter seems to be a trifle weather beaten and is held together with catgut strings and is tin-mounted. Still there are no bidders for him at the figures, although he was recently marked down from $11 to $8. Skulls are [email protected], varying according to size and’ the skill displayed in preparation. A skull that was prepared for the market with a brick is not in as much favor as one that found its wayin by the natural channels. The demand for pelvises is light,. at [email protected]; tibia, in slight call at 45@ 55c. Feet, articulated, are quoted: Lefts, [email protected]; rights, [email protected]; west sides (by weight only), $4.30. Hands are slow and generally unsatisfactory at [email protected], although a fancy price, $68.40, was paid for one the other day just before the close of the market, or rather an inspection Was secured of it for that sum, Wooden legs are heavy and slow, but continue moving up and down a peg. Dealers, who did not understand the peculiarities of a mauser bullet, or were overconfident of the shooting abilities of the Spaniards, overstocked the market last year, and the depression is still felt. Fair to middling legs, with feet unshod, are $4.50@20; choice
prime, $15@75, with [email protected] extra for shoeing. Artificial hands are $2@ 40, but fulls were known to bring $350. The rain made the hand market lively on July 4 in some respects, but if it had dry dealers feel that it would have had a beneficial effect on the trade throughout the season. Eyes are dull, but ‘clearing since the Fourth. Black ones. were abundant early in the week. Good gray, glass, are $2.50@15; browns and blues selling slightly off. Misfits are 35¢c@$1.45. Generally the demand is out of sight. In teeth it’s the same old grind. Full sets are moving up and down at $3@ 125; bicuspids, by the brace, are steady at [email protected]; molars, dull at T5ic@$6. Wisdom are decidely scarce. In ears the demand is unusually discouraging, but first-class wax, unpierced, are firm at [email protected], or $25@ 30 per pair. Hair is tight. Those who have it are holding on to their stock, and in a few instances to other people’s stock. Full wigs are in demand at $10@150, according to color.—Chicago Chronicle. Cow’s Brain in ‘Man’s Head. The most delicate surgical operation ever performed, and which has so far proved successful, was accomplished by Dr. Harman and other physicians, recently, at Harman, W. Va. Jay Lutz, mine boss in the Harman mines, was almost kilMed by falling slate, his skull in the back of his head being badly crushed. All hope of his recovery was abandoned, but Dr. Harman concluded to resort to the last means to save the man’s life, and accordingly had brought in from the pasture field a young heifer, and the brains of the animal were removed and substituted for those which were badly lacerated in Lutz’s head. The transfer of the delicate members was tedious, but was, it is believed, so successfully done that Lutz will recover. After the heifer’s brains were removed she was turned loose in the pasture field. The beast stands in one place all the time unless started by some one, and it is necessary to start her jaws to moving when she is fed and to stop them when she completes her meal.—N. Y. Journal. It Produced an Effect, “You really ought to have heard the sermon to-day, Henry,” she said when she got home from church. “It was one of the finest Dr. Thirdly ever preached.” “What was it about?” “The pomps:and vanities of this wicked world,” she answered, promptly; “and, do you know, Henry, there wasn’t a Woman in church who was dressed any better than I?
