Wlmt! bollcvo lii eyo transplanta

broached to in by Dr. C'ullah.in, the
well-known spcclillst of diseases nml
Itiflnnltlos of tlio optical organs, ono
evening na I was enjoying asocial clint
sjvith him. My frioml, it tuny bu
ticedlciis for mo to say, is a noted
dentist as well as it popular physician
In Now York. His voracity Is nbovo
question, nml I should be tlio last to
doubt bis word.
' "Why not? ' bo nsked with ft quizzi
cal expression upon bis handsome
features. Thcro have been success
ful eases of skin grafting and of hair
transplanting. In fact, nearly all
other parts of Iho human system liavo
been changed and transformed at
Will."
"But 1ms it boon done?"
Most nssurcdly. Professor Z
of Pai ls has demonstrated it by actual
experience."
So Iho sight was as good as the
original eye?"
'Ay, better, for the original orbs
were not perfect. Hut haven't I ever
told you of a little experience I had In
that direction? No? Well, holp
yoursolf to tlioso clears; they nro a
prime article imported by myself.
Aud whilo yon smoko I Will amuse
you with my little story of combined
sclenco nnd romance.
"Little over two years ago, a lady
called at my ofllco, saying slio wished
to consult mo on account of her
daughter who wus i filleted with n
itraugo malady. Kopcating her
words she said :
' " 'About a year ago sho bean to
complain of a pnin in her right eye,
and as this grow worse wo became so
larmod that we consulted our family
Xmysician, who, upon examination,
denied that ho could discover any
troublo with the organ. Adclc, that is
my daughter's name, still persisted
'-jfcat there was something growing on
Ttho eye, and besides boing painful she
-was slowly losing sight. We grew
'moro anxious to consult in turn, at
least a dozen doctors, somo of them
specialists of diseases of the eye, and
every ono of them declared that the
,ey was ns well the other, and that
he wus su (Turing from a singular illu
sion. At last 1 could not help believ
ing the physicians, and I tried to rea
son her out of the strange hnllunclna
(ion. Dut nothing that can bo said
will overcomo hor bollef. I am nearly
distracted for I am sure that alio will
not long s'urvlvo tho foarful strain she
Is undergoing. Slio lias heard of you
lid knows that you are a specialist.
In good repute, of diseases of the eye.
Hoxf I wish for yon to make an ex
initiation and when you have added
your decision lo all the others I hope
alio will be coiivlncod. Oil, doctorl
If you know of any way to lift this
cloud from hor mind, you will not
only save a beautiful life, but end this
misery of myself and friends.' '
"1 was very much impressed with
tho pathos of Mrs. AvoriU's story and
promised to call the next dav at hor
Iran to see if I could save hor
' daughter from a fate worse than
death.
i "I found Miss Avcrlll a most in tor
eating patient, and my sympathies
wore enlisted at ones lu her behalf.
Just entering upon the morning of
womanhood, she was tall aud 'divine
ly fair,' as the poets express it, though
X could sea that the great mental strain
t work upon her bruin was fast over
jpowerlug her.
'Her mother met ma in the hall,
surging ma to do my best to cure
i Iter daughter of tbe fallacy of bar
belief, and I, of course, promised to
do any best.
I "I talked with Miss Averill sst
ral minutes, to find her mind well
telanosd except, perhaps, upon that
m subject. , .
"I was surprised at the coolness
with which flirt submitted to nu ex
amlnntlon, which I msdo with ex
Irnmo deliberation, slio describing to
mo very minutely tho pain nrislng
from tho suffering eye, nnd even ex
plaining to mo the exact locution of
the 'spot.
"Mrs. Avcrlll was wa'chlng mo
anxiously; nml I will confess that
there was a husklness la my volco
when I said at last:
'Mr dear madam, I nni sorry to
be forced to say as much, but your
daughter has described her caso as
faithfully ns I could have dono. She
has a painful nnd t fear fatal disease
developing In her l ight eye.'
'No no I there can bo no troublo
with hor eye. All the doctors have
said so.'
" 'Hut doctors err as woll as other
human beings sotnotlmes. And the
caso may not have boeu so well de
veloped then.'
"I thought for a tlmo Mis. Avcrlll
would swoon, but gradually bIio grew
caimcr, when her daughter, who had
shown no signs of weakness, said:
'"You see I was light, mother.
Doctor Callahan is n physician of most
acute skill, nnd lie is not afraid to
speak his thoughts. I feel better,
even now, nml It Is host for you to
know tho worst.'
"Mrs. Averill soemod unablo to
comprehend the startling fact, and I
called her to my side, saying:
" 'If you will stand behin I my
chair, and look over my shoulder when
I throw tho light from tha opthalmo
scopo through this lens 1 hold in my
left hand upon tho cornea, you can
look Into tho anterior clinmbor of the
eye, and a littlo to the left of theop'.ic
disc you enn sco a tumor with largo
veins 1'iidiatliig in all directions. Thut
class of tumors was first pointed out
to me by Dr. Williams of Boston;
afterward by Von Graff of Vienna,
ami they bavo always thus far proved
to bo cancers of tho kind called scir
rhous. They ate exceedingly painful
and unless removed ulways fatal,
Mrs. Averill at this point burst
into a flood of tears, while her daugh
ter, as I had expected, remained out
wardly calm, even trying to assuago
her mother's griof.
It is better to know the worst,
dear mother. And,' as she spoke a
hopeful glauco came into hor counten
ance, 'perhaps Dr. Callahan can cure
It.'
"Oh, doctor! can you save my
child?' implored her mother.
'I did not dare tell them at onco
tho plan I had concluded to follow;
but I spoke encouragingly, an 1 asked
for a little time to consider the
matter.
'I did not prolong tholr suspense
longer than I could help; and at last,
broaching the subject as carefully as
posslblo, I suggested nu eyo transplan
tation. 'As I had anticipated Miss Averill
immediately acquiesced in my mode
of troatment, and as far as I could see
thcro was not a tremor about her.
Her confidence lu my ability seemed
unbounded.
"At my request tho matter was kept
strictly private, as I knew an affair of
that kind would create endless tulk
which would do injury to my pur
pose. 'I am free to confess to you that
when the momentous occasion came
I was more norvous than my patient,
who was bearing up with remarkable
fortitude.
"Only her mother and a particular
assistant of mino were present, and
we lost no time la preparing for tho
operation.
"I bad told Miss Averill that I bad
selected a rabbit's eya to take the
place of hor optic, assuring her tho
chango would never be noticed, aud
that her sight would be parfect.
Whon tho preliminaries had been
arranged, I put the patient uuder tho
lnfluciico of other and performed tho
dolicate task I had assigned myself
quickly und successfully so that when
she recovered her consclousuoss, I
said with assurance.
"Itojoice with me, Mini Averill, you
have no w an oye as good as tlio other
aud I have performed the crowning
feat of my lifo. I presume It feels
soro uow, but keep tho bandage on
for a whilo and moisten with this
liquid. I will change the baudage for
you dully.
'I tell you I nevor saw a happier
couple than that mother and daughter.
They overwhelmed me with thanks
and no price that I could ask would
be (oo great. My faith, as I tliluk of
it now, my price was pretty high."
Do you object to telllug?"
'Certainly not. I asked for her own
dear self and got tier, too."
And the eye Is as good as the
other?" I asked incredulously.
. "Certainly; you eouldu't tell them
part. But why tbould you, for I
don't mind lolling you that they are
the identical twain given her by
nature. You see tier's was a detycraio
caso of one of those strnngo fantasies
which sometimes enter tho mind of
even tho strongest. 1 am sure my
courso of treatment was ail that could
hnrvo saved hor. Of courso I let hor
mother into tho secret as soon as I
thought host, and it had her hearty
support. Though this docs not Sub
stantiate my theory, I dm sure that
eye transplantation can bo successfully
done." Yankee Blade.
Growth of Our Xettleil Aroa.
The extent to which the settled area
oMhe country is constantly growing
may bo very closely estimated by tho
record of Government land salos.
Thefjcisln this connection are strik.
log, even if few people nro apt lo take
them lnt consideration. Every year
the United S'.ates disposes of from
ten to twenty million acres of Its
public lands to purchasers, who, in a
majority of cases, aro actual settlers.
Indeed, about half of tho transactions
are made under what are called the
Homestead provisions of the publlo
land laws. This requires actual resi
denco by tho purchaser on tho tracts
acquired, ami in a great innjorlty of
ci-is is the work of bona lido settlers.
When it is recalled that ten million
acres of land is double tho area of
Massachusetts nnd is one-third the ex
tent of Now York, It can be seen how
large an addition is yoarly mado to
the production capacity of tho whole
country.
,Iu tlio course of tho ten years which
ended in 18J0 tin Government has
disposed of no less than ono hundred
and fifty million acres of laud, an
area nearly as largo as the whole of
the thirteen original States. It must
not be forgotten, elthor, that this ini.
posing total does not include tho land
salos of the Stale of Tcxa, which
alone among the Statot of the West
retains the tltlo to the public lauds
within Us limits. Aud if the record
of land sales by the various railroad
companies, which the Governmanthas
endowed with portions of tho publlo
lands, are included in the total, It is
altogether probablo that a million
acres or moro would bo added to tho
records for each year and somo
twenty-live million acres to the ag
gregate sales for the last ten years.
When it Is stated that in the past de
cade one hundred and seventy-five
million acres have Icon brought uu
der settlement and cultivation, wo

Somo of the best New York hospi

is largor. Hot-wator plpos run be

aro couductod into the cage. The baby

Influonco of tho heat looked like any
other infant of the age of six weeks',
only a trifle redder, perhaps, than
children brought up undor tho usual
conditions. In tha sumo room with
this baby were twolve others of about
the same age, two in each cradlo, all
dressed precisely allko, and dis

writing stuck to the gown. The
mothers were In an opposilo room,
aud the nurse reportod that every day,
wheu tho children were bathed, thore

mothers' ward lest tho babies got
mixed. "Wouldn't each mother know

Tho nurse shrugged her shoulders,
and replied: "Tho babies aro all ex

mother wants her own, and each ouo's

Many persons fall in their plantings
from the imperfection of tho seeds

to germinate is tho fault of the
gardener. If tho soil is too cold when
they aro sown, or remains soaked with
water for somo days, their vitality is
soon destroyed, or they may bo

A lawn may bo sown either in tho
fall or spring, but tho primary requi
site is tho proper preparation of tho
ground. To bo sightly and beautiful
the surfaco must bo smooth and tho
ground proporly gradod. ! Again, the
soil must be of the host, aud, If not
naturally so, It ought to bo mndo so
by fertilizing It. Quito often It may
be necessary to spread upon It belter
soil, brought from a moro favored
spot, and nothing should bo omitted
for bringing It into tho productive con
dition of good garden soil. W Not only
ought a lawn have a surfaco of ferillo
soil, but all parts of tho surfaco should
bo equally fertile. It Is an unsightly
lawn upon which tho grass grows un
equally In patches. Small grass plots
can bo moro quickly established by
sodding them than by sowing tho
seed, but for largo plots tho , latter Is
tho most common method, "and i when
the ground is proporly prepared a flue
lawn can be mndo by thick seeding.
The best grasses for a lawu aro Ken
tucky bluo grass, l'ou pratousW, and
red top, Agrastls vulgaris, in the pro
portions of two bushels of the former
to ono bushel of tho latter for an acre
of lawn. A quart of timothy and a
handful or two of whlto clover are
sometimes distributed In the mixture,
but these aro not especially necessary.
As before said, thore nro two seasons
for sowing autumn and spring.
Either is appropriate, and tho choice
Is of secondary Importance compared
with tho preparation of tho land.
To get rid of weods and clean tho
ground before laying it down In grass,
Mr. Saunders, tho Superintendent of
Grounds nt Washington, snggosts tlio
practice of planting it with early po
tatoes. These, if woll cultivated, will
soon cover tho surfaco , with tholr
leaves and prevent the growth of
woods, and the operation of digging
tho crop and removing it tends to
further pnlvorlze and lcoscn tho soil.
Tho potatoes can bo removed, tho
ground mado smooth, and 'ikijs's seed
sown from tho middle of 'jftigust to
the mlddio of September ,Snd tho
grasses will vcgelnto and cover tho
