MAN WITH 34 FINGERS AND TOES
Prof. Frederick Starr, of tho Univer
sity of Chicago, who Ih looking for peo
ple with nu extra allowance of lingers
or toes, would be delighted to meet a
servant of the Marquis dc Hnllncourt,
who Is exciting much Interest among
European scientists. He Is a young
man, uud on each hand he lias six well
developed lingers, while on each foot
he hns nu equal number of well-developed
toes. It Is not known whether ho
Inherited thin anomaly. Ills supernu
merary members arc of no special use
to him, but he Is never allowed to for
get that he possesses them, as his com
rades, for nn nbvlous reason, have nick
named him "Twenty-four."
Dr. Capltan, a well-known ethnolo
gist, writing on this subject, says:
"There aro two forms of this singular
phenomenon, the true and the hybrid.
HAND WITH SIX FINOKn.
In the true form, us seen In the case of
the marquis' servant, the supernumer
ary lingers and toes are complete addi
tional members, the lingers being usu
ally placed beside the thumbs and tho
toes besldo the great toes. In the hy
brid form, on tho other band, the ad
ditional lingers nnd toes nre merely a
result of u division which has tuken
place In tho regulur members.
"The thumb Is the part usually af
fected, nnd It may be divided at tho
first Joint, though the division general
ly starts at the base. All the other
lingers may bo divided In a olmllar
manner; Indeed, as many as Uftecn lin
gers have been found on one hand.
Atavism Is evidently the cause, but ono
would have to travel very far back In
order to discover the origin of such
fingers and toes."
A lUt with Brain.
While standing in a large woodshed,
one end of which bo had partitioned off
with narrow slats as a fowlhouse, Mr.
X heard a gnawing noise, nnd,
looking about him. saw a large brawn
rat darting away from a dog biscuit
lying on the door of his shed. He de
cided to remain quiet and watch If thin
thief of his dog biscuit would return.
Presently he did, and, slyly glancing
at Mr. X , as If to say, "Now, you
lot me alone, and I'll let you alone,'
his ratshlp began dragging the biscuit
over toward the slat portion, behind
which were the fowls clucking and
scratching. He reached the laths and
tried to drag the biscuit through them
after him. It would not pass, being
fiat and broad. After some vain strag
gles with It, the rat mulshed, to return
with another of his acquaintance. The
newcomer he stationed Inside the fowl
house. Hd himself came out and seized
the biscuit by one corner. He then be
gan tilting It up on Its side, and the
adroit friend poked his head through
the slats and steadied it with him. In
a few seconds tho biscuit was held be
tween them "up and down," and be
tween rat No. l's pushing without and
rnt No. 2's pulling from within the bar
rier the prize was forced triumphantly
through the slats.

The Burner of IuUU,
The barber of India Is a man of much
importance. Ho has no shop aud does
not solicit customers by signs or sym
bols. If tho tourist In India observes
closely the stream of life In tho streets,
he will now and then notice a man of
quiet demeanor strolling along ucar the
bazars, carrying a small bag or rolled
up buudle under bis arm, apparently
not very solicitous of the attention of
the passers-by. This Is tho Hindu bar
ber, who ylslti certain -famlllea early
every morning. The barber Is also the
village surgeou. He performs bleeding,
cupping, and undertakes surgltml op
erations. It Is be who bores tho girls'
ears and noses for putting in rlugs.
No religious rite can be performed
without the presence of the family bar
ber. At the birth of a child the bar
ber carries the good news to the rela
tives of the family. Ho plays nn Im
portant part at a wedding, It being his
duty to dress the groom. On tho occa
sion of a funeral tho barber shaves the
beads of the living and of the dead.
