The complete story of how ,sailors and officerin the British navy get their "mutiny," or gaog, as they are supposed tocall it, is very entertain- ingly told by a well known naval' writer, John S. Margerison, in the I London Mily Mail. His account fel- lows: , They don't trouble much about lit- e details, such as who was the man who introdueed the spirit r in the navy; they don't clink glasses -they oftener drink Out basins -and say, "The .King - bless him!" as the naval novo soy they do. In short, they mak tle or no fuss about thole daily w of rum and water save that they forward to it with an anticip that never under any eircumsta loses its keenness.

Stitching, dressing, etc., are :important opeeations, but none of ; them can make good the damage, 01 I replace the loss of tissue in a wound. This is the work of our good friends I in the blood, the white corpuscles- , the "scavengers," so celled because ; they destroy disease germs. i When a wound is made, a bone , broken, a nerve torn, etc., it is chiefly by these corpuscles finding their way - out of the bloodvessels into the sur- ' rounding tissues that the injuries by bullet or bayonet are repaired. The 00100 of broken bones, nerves, skin, etc, is effected by the corpuscles 1111(2 - meg their way into the coagulated blood which suvrounds the injured !parts. : They throw out what are called "processes," become fixed, and join ; each other. A new tissue is thus 'formed, which becomes endowed with , blood -vessels, Fibres follow, 4171C1 these serve to keep the torn tissues of the wound in what is surgically ealled, "opposition," In this tissue, in the case of a book - en bone, bone salts are deposited; where nerves have been torn by a bul- let, nerve fibres grow, and so on. These fibres, in the course of healing„ contract, and it is by that power of eontraction that the edges of a wound are brought together and united.
