Our TEErH.-They decay. Hence, un-
seemly mouths, bad breath, imperfect masti-
cation. Everybody regrets it. What is the
cause? Ireply. want of cleanliness. A clean
tooth never decays. The mouth is a warm
place-9S degrees. Particles of meat between
the teeth soon dscompose. Gums and teeth
mnst suffer.
Perfect cleanliness will preserve the teeth
to old age. How shall it be secured? Use
quill pick, and rinse the mouth after eat
ing. Brush and CASTLE soap every morning;
the brush with simple water on going to bed.
Bestow this tri6ing care upon your precious
teeth, yor will keep them and ruin the den.
fists. Neglect it. and you will be sorry all
your lives. Children forget. Watch them.
The first teeth determine the character of the
second set. Give them equal care.
Sugar. acids, saleratus, and hot things are
n thing when compared with food decompos-
lug between the teeth. decentralization may
loosen the teeth, long use may wear them out,
but keep them clean and they never will de-
cay. This advice is worth more than thous.
ands of dollars te every boy and girl.

A SLIGHT TMIsTAKE.-General Butler was
called on the other day by a gentleman who
said he had a negro hanging around tho
generals hospital, and wished, ITO get him.-
The Generals policy in such cases is to turn
the negro out of the lines. unless he has been
employed by some officer. He therefore
turned to one of bis aids and told him to
write to DR.. Smith to turn the man out Of
his hospital. The aid wrote to DR.. Smith
a" You will at once turn the man out of your
hospital al''-accidently emitting to say any
thing about o colored man. The owner Of
the slave took the note to the hospital iLno-
Gently enough. and handed it to DR.. Smith.
The doctor read the order. and, though as
tonished. supposed the General had good
reasons for giving such instructions so up
he jumped, and told his visitor to leave the
house quicker than he ever came into it.
The gentleman was completely astonished.
and attempted to ask the reason for such
treatment but the doctor said he would not
hear word. and taking him by the shoul
der, pushed him towards tine door, and then
ordered corporal to put him out, which he
did, the gentleman brandishing his cane, and
cursing bitterly against such usage. He
went back to the General, and an explana.
nation ensued, and resulted in all hands en-
joying regular old fashioned horse laugh
The negro was not in the hospital, and has
not vet been found.
