and one of our subscribers, we are
informed came nigh unto the end Of
his earthly career few nights since
by swal lowing u set of artificial
teeth in Ills sleep On awaking he
was nearly choked breathless the
teeth being too far down his throat
to be recovered and the only alter
native was to swallow them en-
tirely: which after considerable diff
ficulty he accomplished. The teeth
were a full set for the upper jaw,
with gold plate. The teeth are now
in his possession in an unimpaircd
state. 1t is certainly marvellous in.
cident and narrow escape from
the jaws Of death, and should be a
warning to all wearsrs of artificial
