In tbet,native-quarters of- the, towns
of India‘the strange spectacle enayQw
seen of a butcher seising a piece of
meat In bis bunds’.add .. cutting- It In
two with a stroke of hls knife held be
tween the first and second toes of hls
foot The shoemaker uses no last, but
'turns tbe Unfinished shoe with hls feet
.while Ms hands are busy iprkhaplugilt.
So the carpenter bolds with hls .great
toe the board he Is cutting; and the
‘Wood turner handles-hjsi.tbolsvns-arell
• with hls toep as with bis fingers.
This use of tbe feet to asstst'the
hands in their labor. Is. not, .however,
’the mere result Of practice, bnt Is
principally due to the factmthafthe
’Hindoo foot Is quite different from
ours in lte anatomical conformation.

the toes possess a surprising-mobility.
The great toe can be mov#dir<«*ly.in
all directions,,and the fltht.and second
toes are separated by a wide space,
i sometimes as much as fiveMkhths -of
an Inch across at the base of, the .hoes
and two Inches at their extremities.

the toes in handling the'objects by ten-?

posture much - more - comfortably than
we can do. A similar: formation of , the
feet and toes Is found among the An-
amese, but It Is not, as might be sup
posed, a common thingtamong barba
rous and savage tribes.
One naturally thinks of the resem

Other User For Teeth.
The teeth, says the Medical Port-

fice than that commonly assigned to
them—namely, that of merely crushing
or masticating the food. They .are to
be regarded as endowed with a tactile
sense, a-discriminating'faculty corre

cles and nerves of the eye and ear.

The Water pitcher.
The following simple method of keep
ing Ice water In u common pitcher Is
worth knowing: Put n layer-of cotton
batting between two . sheets of wrap
ping paper three Inches higher than
■the pitcher. Fasten the ends of the
paper and batting together, forming a
circle. Paste a cover-over one end of
the - hatting and paper. This cover,
when over a pitcher, must come close
to the stand and so exclude the air,
-and-ice will keep a long time. This
paper cover will bo found of great
service In a sickroom for both milk
and water pitchers.
