ROYILTY FINDS IT
BERLIN, Jan. 4.—Democratic Ger_
many has not ceased to worship at the
throne of royalty and because of this
bogu princes with hyphenated and
unpronounceable names often flimflam
the German public
1 A make-believe prince with a sense
of humor and taste for expensive au
tomobiles find high living recently liv
ed high in a number of German cities
'at the expense of exclusive hotels and!
garages which cater to the high-bornJ
by assuming the title Prince Hansortj
von Isenburg-Bierstein. His name var-j
ied from time to time.
In North Germany he posed as1
Count von Ohr, or Count of the Ear. I
Sometimes he paid his bills in bad
checks when proprietors of hotels be-|
came too insistent, but generally mov-1
ed along before they got tired of exj
tending credit to royalty.
Berlin police officials have run down
the man’s record and say he is a 24
year-old salesman who has been^
known in police circles of North Ger-J,
many for several years, in some cas j
es where he was not able to obtain an.
automobile he engaged chauffeurs and(
•'xptained to hotelkeepers that his au
to was coming in a few days.
USING FART OF HIS 010
PHILA., Pa., Jan. 4.—Modem surg-,
ory lias not yet progressed to tiiej
stage where one can make a woman'
out of a man’s rib. but physicians at |
the W oman’s Medical College here arej
able to manufacture an ear from the
cartilage of a rib.
At least that is what they are1
doing in the case of Wilbui Jones ne -
gro pc.lic< man, who lost an e:i>' wiilej
valiantly subduing a moo three years
ago.
Dr. G M. Dorrance, professor of
surger- at the college, is ia direct
charge of the unusual piece of woik
Pointing out that the ear is made
[ up for the most part of cartilage, Pr.j
Dorrance stated that the only problem
is to obtain some cartilage from a por
tion of the body where it will aft.-r_
ward be replaced by nature.
A clay model is made of the propos
ed ear, and then the cartilage is re
moved from the man’s seventh rib and
actually carved by hand to match the
model of the ear. An incision is then
made in the man’s back and the car
tilage placed beneath the skin, where
it is nourished by the blood supply. A
strip of skin is then cut on the pa
tient’s shoulder, but not detached ,in
order to preserve life in it, “The way
one would peel a banana,” as the doc
; tor phrases it. The cartilage is next
i removed from its temporary place in
the back and, now thoroughly provid
; ed with skin and blood vessels, is
! firmly stitched to the remains of the
old ear.
The shoulder skin formed into a
tube, carried fresh blood to the car
tilage ear until it is grafted onto the
remains of the old ear. When this is
acocmplished the skin tube is gradu
ally cut away, and Jones will step
out of the hospital w'ith a new ear of
his own making.
