Some people think flmf bones are dry B111 ll1ey'll Avmzu zlijfferent when they die. ,Aff TOP poking us, cried the seventh and eighth ribs to the distal phalanx of the index finger. lt does seem as if we bones can't rest in peace at all. Femur, the biggest bone of them all, awoke with a start. XVhat's up, he asked Apeevishly, craning his neck to gaze severely at the rattling 'L I bones, ' Xou ribs should be accustomed to being poked by now. All the authors do it. Besides, you'li get enough poking and to spare when those new fresh- men come in. 'l hey won't handle you with kid gloves, rest assured. UNO need to tell us that, grunted Fibula. lt was only two years ago that a piece of clay clogged up my nutrient canal and l was nearly asphyxiated before it fell out. That's nothing, growled Talus, Five years ago one of those blamed freshmen threw me down and nearly broke my neck. Come, come, chimed in Radius. They are not such a bad lot at heart. They're only ignorant. Last year one of them took me home, and gave me a good clean- ing. He also introduced me to the family, one of whom exclaimed, 'Ain't nature grand? I' suggest that we select a committee to remonstrate with them. I-lo, those things come as easy as H to you, don't they ? cried Femur, The trouble with you, Radius, is that you're always running around in circles-never stop to think at all. How are we going to talk to them? Those marrowless freshmen don't even understand our language. They can't tell a tubercle from a tuberosity on a bet. As Femur's lips moved with aspera-ty, he sniffed the air. Suddenly a look of con- sternation spread over his face. Nlaybe it was the weather which informed him or maybe it was tuition. Wlio knows? At any rate, realization came to him that the vacation of the old bones was over. He knew that the grind was upon them once more, not to be averted, inevitable. Sadly shaking his head from before backwards, he drew himself up to his whole length and addressed the bones. ulldy friendsf, he began, we long bones are at our extremities. At this point Humerus burst into a loud guffaw, but was promptly silenced by Tibia, who was supporting liemur. Thereupon Humerus subsided and became sulci. Oblivious to the interruption Femur proceeded. Let us not obfuscate the issue. The barbaric horde is 'upon us. Soon all manner of indignities will be practised on us. Let us count our number so that afterwards we shall know our losses. l'll begin with the small bones first. VVe often lose them. Let the phalanges step forth as they did in old llflacedoniaf' he snapped. One by one each phalanx stepped forward, then deployed in battle formation. At length the whole fifty-six were arranged in order, led by Pollux and Castor. Femur's Cyclopian eye CO. T. Fovea Capitisj twinkled as he saw that none were missing. Then Let the lVIEf2lt2.1'SZllS, Metaca1'pals, Tarsals, and Carpals, range themselves behind the phalangesf' he cried. The myrmidons obeyed, and advancing, took their designated position with a most warlike air. But one place was empty. Where is Calcaneus ? asked Femur in concern.

Es, He's not feeling well, spoke up Hallux. Last Christmas he was injured in his weak spot-you know-where the arrow struck him at the siege of Troy. A freshman was trying to articulate his tuberosity with Cuboid, over there, and pressed quite hard. - They'll never learn, sneered Femur. They always go at a bone wrong end first. We get even with them, though, said Mandible. VVe bones of the skull scare some of them. They dream about us for weeks and weeks. That's not getting us anywhere. Let the vertebrae align themselves now. First of these, Atlas tottered forward, numb from supporting the skull. QThis is the why of the numbskullj Closely following came Epistropheus with his nose sticking up in the air. Then came Cervices Tertius, Quartus, Quintus, Sextus, and bringing up the rear. Vertebra Prominens. The latter went by Femur without even bending his spine, and for this lack of respect he was roundly reprimanded and pro- nounced a most irregular bone. At length all the vertebrae had filed past and stood in a long imposing column, thirty-three strong. Have you any complaints to record, Father Atlas ? asked Femur. No, mumbled the latter. The boys leave us pretty well alone. I lost the last member of the Coccygeal region, but the inhabitants of that district seem to get less in number every year. E Well, yes. tl1at's been happening ever since Darwin invented evolution. Next. And now the ribs moved solemnly forward in two -columns. They put up a chesty front and took up a lot of space, but a whisper went around that they were a hollow lot. Indeed, the smaller ones were so flighty that they almost floated on air. Walking between the two columns and lending them support was sternum. Fickle as the ribs were they realized that sternum was a close relation and hence were much attached to him. With pride did Femur survey the numerous host. One hundred and sixty-four assorted bones were lined up before him. Who wonders then, that he forgot the proximity of the dreaded enemy and dreamed of conquest and glory. ln front of him were the people, behind him the big men of the kingdom-his twin brother, Femur Sinistra, only one-fifth of a second younger than he, the Os lnnominatum, who delighted in traveling incognitog Tibia and Fibula, who were only slightly inferior to Femur, himself, in stationg Scapula who was looking rather thing Humerus, who had more deaths to his credit than any of them: Clavicle, who was not very strongg and Radius and Ulna, who were quite inseparable. The only thing wanting now was lVIusic, which is so elosely related to Anatomy, as any bone knows. So Femur called upon the iliotibial band for an appropriate selection. The latter, consisting of the twenty-two bones of the skull, responded with great gusto, and began- YE CHANT OF YE BONES 'H You who would know Anatomy Each tubercle, each impression, Must first know Osteology- Each line and tuberosity, So learn each fossa, each depression, If on the A 1 list you'd be. The chant was proceeding in a most gratifying manner, and all the bones were gravely keeping time, swelled with a sense of their own importance, when suddenly discordant notes were heard. Immediately, Femur cried, Stopl the bones of the cranial vault are flat. All present thought this showed amazing perspicacity on Femur's part, but in truth, any anatomy book will tell you the same thing. However, some of the bones suggested that the skull was cracked and hence could not give forth a true tune. But, alas, at this point, as Femur, unnerved by the dreadful occurrence, relaxed his watchfulness, all the bones were suddenly seized by ruthless hands and frightened back to death.
