GRAFTING CHICKEN SKIN.
CURIOUS RESULT OF A SURGICAL
OPEKATIOV.

(Unarficrfecu In the course of a San Francisco Call
reporter' talk with a local doctor about
cases of skin grafting, the man of medi
cine raid:
' I have a patient now undergoing tho
skin-grafting operation. He is au en
gineer, and up to three months ago was
chief of tho engine-room attached to one
of our largo downtown mills. In the
engine-room was a largo steam drum
whereon tho workmen heated kettles of
oil for uso in their trade. While the en
gineer was engaged one day last January
near this drum, a laborer in the place
carelessly lifted a pot of oil and spilt
nearly half of it upon tho floor. It
spread in all directions, and the greater
part went over tho engineer's hands and
arms, which were exposed, his sleeves
being rolled up.
4Tlie steaming fluid shriveled the skin
and laid baro the flesh, the agony caus
ing the engineer to roll over and over
upon the floor. A carriage conveyed
him to his home, and I was called in to
attend him by the firm, which, of course,
took upon itself all tho expenses. At
the expressed wish of the sullerer, noth
ing was said about it in public. I adopted
the usual mode of procedure in healing
him; that is, setting in small pieces of
skin, which grew and enlarged, thereby
supply ing the place of the destroyed skin.
It was a wearisome job. You see the
flesh is raw and must be kept protected
whilo the engrafting is going on. The
pieces set in are very small. After being
placed in position, some distance apart,
soft cotton is placed upon them, and
they are left to take root. Sometimes
upon raising the cotton to discover if
tho skin is growing, the piece will fall
out, not having any growing properties,
and the whole performance must be gone
over with. AU kinds of skin are used,
although we get as much human skin as
we can and as obliging friends are will
ing to loan from their bodies. The skin
of chickens is used next to human skin.
I used it, and contrary to the case of
Cook, it took splendidly with my patient.
All this is perhaps dry talking to you
doctors' stories usually are but now I
come to something which will interest
you the chicken skin enlarged and
joined with the other blocks of cuticle.
All was well, I thought, but about two
weeks ago I noticed small blue specks
appearing upon the new skin. Soon pro
tuberances followed. I was mystified,
not knowing what to make of it. But
in another day I recognized them. They
were pin-feathers. Since, they have
continued to grow, and now they are
real feathers."
The reporter could not keep back a
smile ot incredulity, noticing which, the
doctor said :
"You may laugh, but you will not if
you see them, will you!"
The reporter declared that ocular in
spection would better satisfy him of the
truo state of the case.
"Come," said the doctor, seizing his
hat, "we will go out to the house now."
In a very short time the doctor and the
reportor were seated on a cable car
speeding in the direction of the "Western
Addition. After leaving the cars at a
street far out a walk ot ten minutes
bought the medical man and the seeker
after information to a pretty little cot
tage, which was the central object in a
large grassy lot. This was tho patient's
home, and here the doubting reporter
received his ocular inspection. The
paiieut was seated in an easy chair by
the window, his hand, incased in huge
bund ages, lying motionless in his lap.
'Have you come to see my feathers?"
he said, jocularly.
The doctor unfastened the bandages
carefully and laid bare hands and arms
which were a raw and not pleasant sight.
The flesh was inflamed and crossed and
seamed. But on either wrist and extend
ing up the arms almost to the elbows
were indeed minutt feathers of a grayish
hue. They were like down and were in
patches just as the chicken skin had
been placed. The skin was too tender
to be touched, but the reporter was con
vinced by means of his eyes that the doc
tor had not been beguiling him w:th a
"fairy story."
"It is really the most marvelous thing
I ever met with in myrfureer," said the
doctor, as he replaced the bandages.
"What do youinteud to do let them
grow?" asked the reporter.
"Oh, 1 can do nothing as yet. But
when tho skin gets firmer I shall prune
thotn out and set in human skin. The
rvian doesn't want to go back to his work
, this way."
"Hardly," laughed the victim, "I
would be kidnapped by the proprietor of
a dime museum."
A New Game.
A pleasant wav for a party of young
people to entertain themselves at an in
formal gathering is for them to try and
distinguish each other by seeing the eyes
alone.
I'in a shawl around the doorway about
five feet from the floor. Cut two holes
in a large sheet of wrapping paper, or a
newspaper will serve the same purpose,
which will show the eyes distinctly, but
will not expose any part of tho face.
If any one present possesses a talent
for drawing, the paper, which is to serve
as a mask, could be further decorated
with a mouth and nose put on with a
brush dipped m India ink. This will
add to the grotesque appearance which
ths shawl surmounted by tho masque,
will present. Eyebrows might also he
painted.
Wlieu the paper is pinned above the
shawl, tho company should bo divided
into two parties, ouo to remain iu the
room as spectators and gueseis, the
other to go "behind the scenes" (other
wise tho bhawl) as performers. If there
aro over a hulf a do.en of the latter a
line bhculd bo formed; the one at the
head stands behind tho mask so that his
eyes are tiihtiuetly seen by those iu the
room, and another of the performers asks:
"W ho is the ownert"
If a correct i espouse is given, the per
form! rs clap their lmwln. The one who

ami number two takes his place behind

An Animal Apple-Gatherer.
Gathering fruit is a frequent practice
of animals, and yet there is a stratagem
attributed to that "walking bunch of
tooth-picks" called the hedgehog, which
is curious enough to deserve special men
tion. It seems that fruit is frequently
found in the hedge-hog's sleeping apart
ment, and its pivm nce there is explained
in this remarkuble way: It is known
that hedgehogs often climb walls, and
run olY upon low boughs, and instead of
scrambling down in the same manner,
they boldly mako the leap from the top
to the ground, sometimes ten or twelve
feet. They coil into a ball in the air,
strike upon their armor of spines, and
bound away unharmed. In taking this
jump, they have been seen to strike upon
fallen fruit, which, thus impaled upon
their spines, was carried away by them;
and tuis lias giver, rise to the opinion that
iu some unci, wav they may have stored
their winter homes. tit. Aiciula.

An Herb Gnthcrer.
A reporter of one of the New York
papers recently visited the shop of one of
the many "Herb Doctors" to be found
in that city, and obtained the following
information of his wares, his customers
and the business generally:
"My business has extended over a
number of years, and were 1 to tell you
all my adventures with herbs, and with
the faithful, to whom a root is some
thing to swear by, I would fill your
newspaper. I obtain the greater part of
my stock from the wooded country
around the town of Hancock, Berkshire
county, Mass. The herbs are gathered
by persons of considerable botanical
knowledge, and aro shipped to me in
cases. Among tho herbs 1 receive from
Massachusetts are tansy, catnip, winter
green, white oak bark, birch bark and
elm bark. When they arrive hero I dry
them, and sometimes weeks elapse be
fore they are in. a proper condition to
sell. I gather a quantity of herbs in
New Jersey, around lloboken and Wee
hawken, and receive a lew others from
the South and West. Last season
I sold over a ton of birch
bark from which birch beer was
brewed. It makes what is called a tem
perance drink. I sell a large quantity
of hops for making hop pillows. It is a
very old remedy for insomnia, and is pre
scribed by every elderly woman in the
Eastern States. That there is great vir
tue in them there can be no doubt, as I
have tried them when troubled with
nervousness and wakeful nights, and
they have invariably relieved me. I
fancy there is an increase in tho herb
business, not generally, but in the lower
part of this city. A large number of
colored persons have settled in tho Eighth
ward, and their demand for herbs is as
tonishingly large. A few years ago the
market was overrun with Indian herb
doctors. They have all disappeared
now, and I do not know of on&that ii
left to continue tho business. There i
an Indian living in Macdougal street who
is one of my best customers. He will
not tako a prescription from a physician,
but when he feels indisposed ho comes
here for that particular herb which seems
to meet his wants. Among the herbs
that are commonly used as tonics are
quassia wood and wild cherry bark, and
gentian wood gives the strength to bit
ters. Gentian wood is used also as a
substitute for chewing tobacco."

It was thought a wonderful achieve
ment, when Paris was besieged by the
Germans, to photograph ouo side of a
newspaper on tissue paper small enough
to be enclosed in a tiuy quill. A carric.
pigeon conveyed the quill out of the be
leaguered city to those who read its con
tents through a magnifying glass.
But neither photography nor the mi
croscope was known in the days of
Cicero, yet he mentions that the whole

closed in a nut-shell.
