It may be that the blind who happen
to be at the same time malefactors of
great wealth will come to exact from
the poor not only their goods, bat their

Royal S. Copeland, dean of the faculty
of Flower hospital. New York, who re
cently grafted a bit of the cornea of
a woman's eye upon a Chinaman, suc
ceeds this state of things may easily
follow. The oculist has every reason
to believe the operation will succeed.
"It would be an expensive operation
for a rich man." said Dr. Copeland.
"1 thisk that If I performed it and re
stored sight to a man who had been
blind he ought to pay me at least $10,
000. The Chinaman paid nothing. I
know of nothing in the law to prevent
the sale of an eye by a poor man to a
rich man." v ' .. .-. - ..;
