03 28       Alex Hardie Has Artificial Arm.

Alex. Hardie, aged 20 years, several years ago had both his arms cut off within an inch or two of the armpits in a railway accident.  He is now attending Kent College of Law, Chicago, and he recently purchased an artificial arm from a firm in Kansas City, Missouri, and when he visited in the city last week he carried his suitcase from the depot with his artificial arm and he can use it nearly as well as any one can a natural arm and hand.  He is very proud of his artificial arm, and all his old friends and schoolmates here were greatly pleased to see how naturally he handled it.  He expects to get another one in a short time for right arm.   WG
