The words of a gentleman who recently died in Chicago, "If you have flowers to give me. give them while I live and can enjoy their sweetness," have often reminded U8 of the aentiment of that poem. And how often are we reminded of them by the treatment of tin dead. We lire not considerate enough in our intercourse with our fellow men. We come in conflict with them iqxm vurious questions which arise: and although we may know very wull that they are just ns honest in their convictions and as we uro in ours und sometimes. xirliiqw wc know very well thut they ure more honest than wc arc we licconic angry with them, und say hnnih. unjustifiable tilings ulioiit them. If we hurt their feelings, we not only do not cure, but rejoice. Yet we know that we are wronging them, or if wo do not know it wo are so thoughtless that our thoughtlessness is crime. Sometimes the best men who have ever lived liave been favored for years by denunciation and slander simply because they could not agree with somebody else. At last the crne is hung upon tho doorknob, and tho wronged brother was sleeping behind the burred shutters the sleep that is wakeless. Tho silence within the house of bereavement appeared to flow out and surround tlie lijai that had so often curled in acorn as the name of the dend was spoken, and about the heart thut was hurd enough to be jusL Then ruiwon begins to assert itself, and humanity begins to triumph over inhumanity.

" But the car that would have been charmed by such words is forever deaf; thu eye that would havo been gladdened by such sentiment is sightless; the heart that would have leaped for joy ut such a manifestation of willing' ness to do justice, is still fQrever.

Provided a victim could lie found for the skinning oHration, surgical skill is equal to tlie feat of turning a urgin' skin perniiiiieutiy white. Tlio quesof color iu tho tion of the cuticle of tlie two rare lias Uvn given a interest hy an experiment in the grafting of tlie skin of a negro upon a white man, performed by Dr. Egu of Keuding. Fa.

Not only did it do this, but os the wound begun to heal Dr. Ege was surprised to uo'irc the thirty particles of black skin transplanted were gradn illy losing their color, and hy the time tlio wound had entirely healed the new surface was as white as if thu cuticle belonged by nature to the ot to which it was transplanted. This result wan surprising to tlie doctor. Imeuiise medical men have hitherto declared thut colored skin wherever transplanted would retain its color. It seems proliable now, therefore, that some of the theory of skin grafting muy undergo n change, and that in the future one mny lie enabled to change one's skin as eiudly as the lurisian belle the color of her hair. A physician, in seriously discussing the matter, said that the original cause of the difference in the color of the skins of different races is still a mutter of some dispute. Some authorities on the subject maintain that it is attributable solely to cliiiiati. In contradiction to this, lionetcr. other authorities prove that tin dark color of tlie skin docs not dc)cud un geographical position, nor even u together on radical purity, by the fact that the extremes of tho chromatic s'aic lire found througliuut the wliuiu ii xs-uli- I doniuin.

The great inijKirt-une- e of of abstersion, uml tho koeping the skin clean und in its normal activity will be more fully appreciated when we consider the importance of the function which the uf all skin has to perform. One-thir-d the morbid matter in the system arising from tissue change is thrown off through the skin, the other being excreted by tlie kidneys apd neci.-ssit- y two-thir- lungs. The excretion through the skin is accomplished by tlie action of nliout 2,500,000 of little sweat glands. Each of these gluuds is surrounded by a plexus H blood vessels, and has duct extending to the surface, the average of ail length of which is inch. The aggregate length of these ducts as computed is about ten miles. Think of it. A system of human sewerage ten mile in extent! The deleterious effect upon the organism caused by a stoppage of this great system of drainage will be perceived at a glance. The effete mutters of the body, which in a state of health are excreted by the skin, nature now endeavors to get rid of through the kidneys nnd lungs.
