ARTIFICIAL LIMBS,
THE DEMAND FOR LEGS IS TEN TIMES
GREATER THAN FOR'ARMS.
It Is a Curious Fart That the Elbow
Joint Cannot De Duplicated 'With
Springs and Hinges •-• Artificial
Limbs Dring Long Life.
Although the artificial limb industrylf
Chivitgo•is restricted to an annual out th
of alsiut 1,000 :legs, arms, hands, ftet
and palls thereof, it is as large aud as.
Important an industry In its field of op-
eration as the most mammoth a the
manufacturing enterprise. The average
price of, limbd ranges front $60 to $1,00.
The art of making artificial limbs dates
hundreds of years before the Christian
era, but • modern Chicago makers are
splicing pieces and making yvhole 'limbs
for every civilized country In the world.
Only about 50 people aro ensploYed in
factories,. but most or them are men of
deckled mechanical ingenuity.. In addi-
tion_ 'to. the most careful .adjustment of
the several parts ef the joints, accord-
ing to, existing devices, they are constant-
ly experimenting on models for still 'bet-
ter result% That, together with superior
workmanship, is the reason why Chicago
made artificial limbs are favorites the
world oven • •
•
'The makers de more then fill orders -
or at least some of them do. They study
the anatomy of man so as to have a bet-
ter understanding of wh,at is required of
artificial limbs; besides, they keep them-
selves well informed of the cause of the
demand. for limbs and the percentage of
one kind over auother. The proportion
is ten legs or parts of legs to one of
arms. Seventy per cent of the Whole out -
pat comes from employees of railways'
and 5 per cent from passengers. Ten per
cont comes from amputations 'necessitat-
ed by "consumption of the bone," as they
tall it, 2 :per cent from the army and
navy •and 13 Per tent from miscellaneous
causes. . .
It is a curious faetthat the elbow
joint cannot be duplicated. with springs
and hinges:: honed -se amputation above
the elbow entities 'almost a total -lois of
the arni, buten artificiet firm may be put
on so true to nature- that it Will deceive
completely 'until there is use for it, when
the fact 16 made very clear that at .best
it is only ornamental.. But When the am-
putation is below .the elbow the arin can
be spliced out; ad even the fingers can
be made somewhat serviceabte. .

.• Since the • fifteenth century • artificial
limb making has been a regular industry
in nearly all countries. • .
Not only Many doctors, but nearly all,
the laity, have a notion that the unitnita;
Ron of ft limb shortehs• the -life of the in-
dividual, and also thegreaterthe quanti-
ty of . the limb cut off the gteater the
abridgment of.life. But statistics. contra-
dict that theory that,. By careful com-
parison for half a eenturY it is .ascertain-
ed that cutting off limbs -not ell the
limbs, of courses -does not shorten life at
all. Or the patrons of an artificial limb
factory leas than 25 per cent die during
a term,ef over 40 year% and nearly ev-
ery 'one of them died from twig:lett or
old'age, and not one died as the direct re-
sult of being short a leg or an arm. It Is
claimed that there is no record of any
One, or but very few at least, 'who died
of pulmonary or cardhe diseases who
wore an artificial limb, except- where the
disease was contracted before the libab
was amputated. However, the amputa-
tion of limbs is not•recommended by pro-
theticians as a ,preventive of lung and
heart troubles. •
Perhaps it has never occerred to many
that the great body of , wearers of artifi-
cial limbs are poor people -that Is, poor
people In contradistinctionto the rich.
It is very rare that a wealthy ,person is
seen with an artificial limb, and the 'rea-
son is clear enough, It is the man who
works. with his hands in the mill, on the
railway, in the Mine, in the gangwayof
the steamboat .and In the other- avenuee
of employment Where danger to limb and
life is always present that has to -repair
himself with artificial bits of mechanism
to splice, out his once unbroken body.
And so 'the question of the first invest-
ment and the subsequerit repairs of the
delicate Joints is one of .no little moment
to poor people, bat they are necessary ex-
penditures and have to be provided fore
It means time lost aud a heavy drain up'
,on WOOS for a tong time. Investors have
reduced all tide to the minimum, and
competition obliges limb makers to use
the best of material and do their work

• ....GIANT TREES IN OREGal.
Said .to Be 20 to 30 Feet In Diameter
and Over 300 Feet High.
1 would like to draw attention to a.
bunch of burnouse trees in the mountains
15 to 20 miles from my place, near La-
tourell, on the 0. R. & N. I used to
make every year a trip to the mountain% •
lasting generally eight to ten days, and it
was on one of my last trips about four
years ago that I discovered on the north-
east side of the divide, between the WA.,
ters of the Bull Run and the Hood dyer,
this bunbh of giant trees. The like I nev-
er saw before or since.
Before I saw these giants I had meas-
ured from time to time some trees at
home which girdled 20 to 80 feet around
about three feet above the base, but these
trees could not be compared at all with
the big trees I found in the mountains.
They would appear as Mere sticks
against those giants. I honestly believe
that those giants will girdle 60 to 80 feet
around near the base and that they are
850 to 400 feet high. They stand en a
kind of Oat or bottom, and this: Oat is
well protected from discovery, as far as I
could perceive, by steep and high bluffs
not only from the Hood river side up,
but from the main water .divide down..
These big trees are, in my mind, some-
where near the north line of the National '
park, but it is deubtful if they are In it.
There are two species ,of the giant
trees., One species has a yellowish and
not very rough bark, is straight and
round as a candle, has no limbs to an im-
mense height and has n nice, wonderful
crown. The father of this very aristo-
cratic species in our mountains is surely
the emperor of our forest. People must
not think that.- this. tree is the so called
"noble fir," because I know not only the
"noble. fir" but many ether mouutain
trees yell' well. Nor must they think that
this species..is one of the ecimmen trees in
the mountains. I cannot say how • many
such giants there' are. There may be hun-
dreds,•"there May be theusends. On our
way home ono' of my companionwas
drowned in the Bull Run, and therefore /
never went- to tee mountaius again, but
have always: had a desire to go and invess
'agate further about those big trees.,
Cedar is the second species •of tbe big
trees; They rival in size and grandeur
the first -species. But the most -wondertul
thing about them seems to be that they
are, , in spite of their immense diamete,r.
end ages seemingly sound' and hard
though and through. •
