The extreme climsiness and cruelty vith whIch operations were performed even subsequent to the fifteenth cen tury would scarcely be credited bad we not autheiide descriptions of them by the operators. Thus Fabriclus of Aqua pedents (153T-1610), the eminent pro fessor at Padua and preceptor of the immortal Harvey, describes what he considered an improved and easy op eration in the following terms: "If it be a movable tumor I cut it away with a redhot knife that soars as It cuts, but if it be adhered to the chest I cut with out bleeding or pain with a wooden or horn knife soaked in aqua fortis, with which, having cut the skin, I dig out the rest with my fingers." When the surgeons of Edinburgh were incor porated it was required as a prereq uisite that they should be able to read ::nd write. "to know the anatomie, na ture and complexion of everie mem ber of humanis body and likeways to know all vaynes of the same, that he may make flewbothemie in due time." Buying a Dog. Buying a dog is not so easy as it looks, there Is so much "faking." A ;:ood irish terrier, for Instance, should have a stiff, wiry coat, a pronounced red color, a long, narrow head, small eyes and ears waich hang down. The ears of a bull terrier, an Aberdeen terrier or a Yorkshire terrier should stick up. But be careful that the wily dealer has not produced this effect with cardboard. A bulldog should Lave a shovel shaped mouth, with the under jaw protruding upward, and a wide chest. There are one or two .hings to look out for In buying a dog. Some dealers try to palm off an old log as a young one by scraping his -e1low teeth, which show signs of age, and painting his gray muzzle. Bright Dyes are often produced by a smear f vaseline and a cold nose produced by Stockholm tar. But you can detect the presence of these aids by smell. Chicago Record-Herald. A Famous Welsh Fortress. Carnarvon castle is the most splen lid specimen of medieval military rchitecture surviving in Britain, not mcepting Alnwick. Art and beauty were combined with strength by De Elfreton, the architect, who had been ommanded to construct a palace within an impregnable fortress. Whether the mean little passage cham >er in the Eagle tower was the birth- i place of the infant prince whom Ed .ard I. made the medium of such a ,im practical joke upon the Welsh: eem3 doubtful, but the main story nay still be true. Every famous sol tier who helped to make history in his corner of Britain has played some xirt within or without the walls of larnarvon castle.
