The human skull contains thirty bones. Every hair has two oil glands at its base. The sense of touch is dullest on the back. The lower limbs contain thirty bones each. The globe of the eye is movod by six muscles. The cerebral matter eighths water. The exact detail of the functions of the spleen are unknown. The normal weight of the liver is between 3 and 4 pounds. The human skeleton. exclusive of the teeth, consists of 208 bones. Hair is very strong. a single hair will bear a weight of 1,150 grains. The color of the skin depends on pigment cells in the inferior epidermis. The enamel of the teeth contains over 95 per cent. of calcareous matter. The wrist contains eight bones, the palm five, the fingers have fourteen. The roots of hairs penetrate the skin about onetwelftli of an inch. The weight of the average sized man is 140 pounds ; of the woman, 125. The only involuntary muscle composed of red or striped fibers is the heart. Men have been known to lose by perspira- tion 5,000 or 6,000 grains an hour. Straight hairs are nearly cylindrical ; curly hairs are elliptical or flat. The glands of the car which secrete the wax are long, highly contorted tubes. The fibers of the brain average 11 ten- thousandth part of an inch in diameter. The air vesicles of the lungs are about one seventy-fifth of an inch in diameter. On an average, the lungs contain about 980 cubic inches, or nearly five quarts of air. A woman’s brain is larger in proportion to the weight of the body than that of a man. The longest, largest and strongest bone in the human system is the femur, or the thigh bone. The height of a fully grown man should be three. and a half times that at his birth. There are in the human body 5‘27 distinct muscles, of which 1’61 are in pairs and five are single. Frequent cutting or trimming of the hairs increasos their thickness, but not their number. Some Chinese and many Africans use the ear as a. pocket to carry coins and other small articles. The papillae of the fingers are about lâ€"lOOth of an inch high and l-25'Jth of an inch in diameter. ‘ The little canals which permeate the den» tine of the teeth are only l-l‘2.t‘00th of an inch in diameter. is about seven- The image formed on the retina of the eye is inverted ; so that all things are really seen upside dowu. A perfectly formed face is one-third fore- head, one-third nose, one-third upper and lower lip and chin. In the space of a quarter of an inch square, Withnf found 147 black, 162 brown, and 182 flaxen hairs. The oil glands of the skin are most num- }erous where there are fewest perspiratory f glands, and vice versa. The teeth, like the hair and nails, are appendages of the skin and form no part of the osscous system. The eye adapts itself to view objects near and distant by a change in the curvatures of the crystalline lens. The brain of an idiot contains much less phosphorus than that ofthe person ofaverage mental powers. The characteristic odors of the dark- skinned races arise from the oil secreted by the glands of the skin. Undernormal circuinstances,a man throws 062 pounds every day in sensible and in- sensible perspiration. The heart ordinarily beats about seventy times a minute, and throws about 2 ounces of blood at each contraction. Lieberkuhu estimates that the extent of respiratory surface in the human lungs is not less than 1,400 square feet. Hair may be transplanted, and under proper conditions will grow as well in its new as in its natural situation. The leg of a. perfectly formed man should be as long as the distance from the end of his nose to the tips of his fingers. ; x The tongue contains a bone which gives support to its base and furnishes an attach- ment to the muscles that move it. The liver, like the heart, is never idle, though its period of greatest activity is several hours after digestion has begun. The chemical composition of theepidermis of the heel is nearly the same as that of the matter of nails, horns and hoofs. The liver secretes a kind of aniuml sugar. In the hepatic tissue this has been found in the proportion of two parts in a thousand. An injury to the tongue is said to be re- paired by nature with greater rapidity than is the case with any other part of the sys- tem. Sanctorious, an Italian physiologist, es- timates that fiveeighths of all the solid akan liquid food takcn are exhaled by the s in. The sense of taste is most acute in the base, tip and edges of the tongue, and is almost wholly lacking on its inferior sur- face. Blind persons acquire so great a delicacy of touch at the tips of their fingers that they may really be said to see with their hands. Anatomists say that the tongue of woman is smaller than that of man, but married men regard this statement with grave sus- piciou. The tallest man of whom there are an- thenticated measurements was Funnam, of Scotland, ll feet, and a little more than 6 inches.

AN ESSEX COUNTY MIRACLE. ] How an Old Lady Was Released from Suffering. Slrong Testimony of a eriublv Witness Added to the Already 1.0m: l‘huin or Evltlcnri-flfi'liy Sum-I‘Vl'hen Ilu- )lt'aiu of l‘uro are at "and ? From the Lemmington Post. Mrs. Mary Olinstead, it highly respected and well known lady residing south of the village of \Vheatlcy,cight miles from Leani- ington, has been the subject or an experi- ence that has created not a little wonder, and has excited so much comment in the vicinity of the lady’s home that the Post believes it will prove of general interest. Proceeding to the handsome farm resi- dence, We were ushered into a room where sat the genial old lady. Upon enquiry she informed us that she was in her cightieth year, and for one of her years she is the picture of health. She expressed her readi- ness to make public the particulars of her suffering and cure, stating that while she did not care to figure prominently in the I newspapers, yet if her testimony would relieve others suffering as she had done, she would forego any scruples in the matter. She then related the story of her case as follows: “About six years ago I was stricken with sciatica rheumatism, which first. made its appearance in my left knee. but gradually took possession of all my limbs. \V'ithin three months after its first appearance I was unable to leave my bed, and day and night sudered the most excruciating pain. My limbs were swollen to more than rwice their natural size, and ‘ drawn out of all natural shape. My feet were also badly swollen. and my right arm ’ was in the shape of a semicircle. For three long years I sullered in this manner. being unable to put afoot to the floor. the only way I could move around was by being i wheeled in a chair. My appetiie gradually ' left me until I had no desire or relish for food of any kind, and I got very thin and ‘ weak. During all this time I kt-pt doctoi» ing with the medical practitioners of the neighborhood, and swallowed gall-ins ofl medicine which cost my husband much ' money, but I am unable ro say that 1 re. ; ceived any benefit from this medicine. agony kept increasing and my system grow- ing weaker, till many times (loath would have been a Welcome relief to my suffer- ings. After reading in the newspapers ‘ about the many CUTL‘S aliected by the usc‘ of Dr. \Villiams" l‘inl. llills, I decidch to dry them. My case was a stubborn, one. and it was not until I had ‘ taken half a dozen boxes of the pills that I r began to feel an improvement. [continued 5 taking the pills, however, and never had a relapse, and to-day I am as hearty an.l healthy as I was before the rheumatism ; came on. I am now able to knit and sew as fast as any young person, while for years my fingers were as stiii~ as needles. I owe my recovery entirely to Dr. \Villiams’ Pink Pills, and will always have a. good word to say for them. Dr. \Villiams’ Pink Pills may be had of all druggists or direct by mail from Dr. Williams’ Medicine (30., Ilrockvillc, (inn, or Schenectady. N. Y., at 50¢. a box or six boxes for $2.50.

In the Arm-nor or National-I Ranks They Arc lec Prolnlssory Non-s. Chinese bank notes are more like pro- missory notes than our bank notes. There ‘ is not and never has been a. national bank, and notes are not used as currency to any extent. The banker merely writes the} amount on the note, and puts his private‘ seal or chop over it. Such notes are made out for all sums from 5 to 20,000 taels, and the Chinese banker never goes back on his signature. He pays the notes when they are presented , in silver or gold. The silver is usually paid according to weight, in lumps, the shape of a. toy bath-tub, ranging in value all the way from $1 to $50. The usual size is ‘ worth about $50, and it weighs about five 1 pounds. The gold is made in long, thin cakes, and is ‘30 carats fine. The banker stamps with his private seal l every piece of silver he pays out, and even i the Mexican dollars are marked thus l with India ink. livery big bank or com< puny has a man who takes all of the silver dollarsthatcomes in, and fits them into holes made in a board, so that when they lie on them their surface is level witn the board. He then takes a brush and water and washes them as white and clean as though they had just come from the mint. He now stamps his chop on each of them, and this means that he guarantees their payment. Anyone who has been in China will see the necessity for this. There are no shrewder counterfeiters in the world than the Chinese. and they are especially adept in the plugging of coin. The other day an American got a silver: dollar in trade at. Hankow. and attempted ‘ to pass it at the bank there. He was told it was not good, and upon his questioning the matter, the Chinese cashier sent for a candle and lit it. He then held the coin| over it, and 10! in a moment it began to melt' The sides fell off and in the centre there was a piece of copper. The counter- fciters had split a genuine coin and had' hollowed out the two pieces on the inside so that the copper could be fitted into them. They Were thcn parched together so neatly that only the experienced ear of the Chinese shrolf could detect the fraud. Do You Suffer Pain ?
