CURIOUS HISTORY OF A STATE.-The
territory now known as Wisconsin was
claimed by France, on the ground of dis
covery by its missionaries and travellers
in 1910, who governed it until they ceded
it to Great Britain, 1863. It was held
by the British nation until 1888, when
it was ceded to the u ited States. L
was then claimed by Virginia, for one
year, when she ceded all her possessions,
northwest of the Ohio, to the United
States. Wisconsin was then thrown un-
der the territorial government Of Ohio,
by the ordi ance of 1887. On the 4th
of July, 1900. Indian Territory was or,
ganized, and Wisconsin placed under its
jurisdiction, where it remained until
1909, when Illinois Territory was organ
lied. and it was attached to that territory
until April 18th, 1918, when Illinois be-
came State. It was then attached to
the Territory of Michigan, until organiz-
ed as the Territory of Wisconsin, July
4th, 1886.
So that Wisconsin was governed by the
king of France ninety-three years; by the
king of Great Britain twenty years; by
the State of Virginia one year; by the
Territory of Ohio sixteen years; by Indian
Territory nino years; by Illinois Territory
nine years; and by Michigan Territory
eighteen years. She continued Terri.
tory of the United States nearly twelve
years, when on the 18th of March, 1S48.
she becamo the thirtieth State of the union.

HOW TO PRESERVE TEETH.
{ Scene closes J

A writer in the New York Evening
Post states that it is deficiency of fphos-
phate of lime in the system that causes
bad teeth He adds:
What shall be done to give the teeth
the proper proportion of phosphate sof
lime? The simple answer is, eat it; be-
cause we know Of no other process by
which it can be introduced into the blood,
and unless it is found there somewhat
abundantly it will never &c; inuo the
structure of the teeth, inasmuch as they,
like the rest of the body, are composed of
materials which are brought into the
blood by the digestive organs. In order
10 ''eat it" one must eat certain kinds of
food which are now coming into general
use IN cities and Will contain in themselves
large quantities of it--such as grlts, oat-
meal, Graham bread, one fourth of an
inch In the surface of potatoes. The rea-
sons furthermore, may be found IN the
following: The bone or tooth is COM
posed of phosphate of lime to the extent
OF sixty two per cent The enamel has
in it about elghty-6ve per ce1t. of this
phosphate, and If less than this amount
Is found in proportion to the whole tooth,
It's structure is very easl y dissolved away
by the acids which form in the mouth,
from PARTICLES of food in process Of de-
composition, from confectionery and other
sweet things, which in the mouth rapidly
acidify. Some of the above named arti-
ele OF food should constitute a part Of the
daily diet. From the time Of first evil
dence of child's existence to the four
teenth year of the same, at which time
the character of the teeth may be consid-
cred finally settled, they will be found of
good shape, hard, and with an excel
lent enamel covering, without deep seams
crossing each other on the surface, and
liable to decay, but the enamel caps will
be found perfectly formed--a covering to
the bone: which will save the patient an
immensity of fear, pain and expense.
The wonder is very often expressed,
that the teeth of people Of the present
day are so frail, while il past generations
they have been so much more generally
sound. 1t would not be far from correct
to reply that the art of refining -four has
much more perfectly robbed it of the bran
of the wheat, that we get from our white
bread just so much less phosphate of lime;
also dispeptics, and those who dread dys-
pepsia, knowing they ate potato skins
when young, tindly say they find such
trying food injured their stomachs, and
hence neither themselves nor their chill
dren are allowed to eat them; and it ap-
pears to sum it up, that the children of
the last two generations throughout the
civilized part of the world have happened
to be deprived of just the scource of sup
ply Of phosphate of lime, in their food
which have robbed their blood of the
wherewith to make good teeth and bones
so our teeth and general bony frame e-work
but lily compare with those of the back
woods settlers, who personated our grand
fathers and lived more independently of
fine boiling cloths, and ate up the entire
potato, rellshing rye and Indian bread, all
to our present mystifcation and the bles-
ing of their now physical happi ness.

A SWEET THING IN CHIGNONs.

Uncze Now, my dear Fanny, it is
your birthday. Let me see, how old are
you? Not ye: arrived at years Of discre-
ton, eh? Well, my dear, here is a little
present for you--a little scientific instru
ment. Science is fashionable now, you
know. Here is microscope, to study
minute botany with-and entomology.
Fanny Oh, thank you, Urcle!
T. Entomology; science of insects,
you know Minute entomology; of in
sects not visible to the naked eye. Mites
in cheese, for instance.
r. Nasty, horrid things
Z. Well, if you like better, diminu-
tive water insects; the water-fea and the
cyclops-and such. But [ suppose you
would wish to eschew mites, I mean not
to eat them?
r. Oh yes, Uncle.
Z. Then you should examine your
cheese With this you can. Other
things also, besides cheese. There is
cheese-and there are chignons.
F. "Chignons" and cheese sounds
funny.
U. Yes, my dear Alteration But
cheese and chignons have more in COM
mon than Oh. However, you think
chignons are ''the cheese" eh?
F. They are the fashion, Uncle, dear
Z. Yes they are the fashion. Sc
were ''fronts' in my young days. Both
false hair. Wise ladies then wore it be
fore; now they wear it behind. The
dandies of the day used, as they said, tc
quiz it.
F. Quiz?
Z. Yes. It was one of their slang
words--derived from looking through an
eye-glass, called a quizzing- glass. Meant
to inspect, as it were, and ridicule. Now
their successors, the swells, quiz chignons
But you can quiz your chignon yourself
with your microscope.
F. Why should |, Uncle?
Z. To see if it contains any gregar
ines.
f. Gregarines! Law, [ should think
they were pretty.
9. No, my dear, they are parasites
Parasites Of parasites.
F. Now, nonsense, Uncle. [ know
what parasites is: zone who frequents
rich tables, and earns his welcome by Hat
tery."--Dr. johnson.
u. "The little heas have other heas
and smaller feas to bite them. Those
smaller feas have l1sser feas; and so a0
infnitum." Fleas, are parasites. Bu
gregarines are not feas.
F. [ should hope not. But what are
they, then?
q. Little dark brown knots" my
love, which ''are seen at the free end o.
the hair, and may even be distinguished
by the naked eye. These are eregarines.'
They are the discovery of NJ. Linde
mann, Russian professor, whose country
has doubtless afforded him fine field To-
observation in this branch of zoology.
r Zoology, Uncle?
U. Yes. my dear. Those little dark
brown knots are not inanimate objects.
F. Ugh!
q. They "have most ignoble ances
try and h"bitation, being found, III th'
interior off,
F. VII t?
Z. Never mind. They are, as I said
parasites of parasites. "They are no
easily destro yed They resist the effect
Of drying and even Of boiling" Nothing
in short, but corrosive things that inju
the hair will kill them.
F. Oh, the horrid things! Oh, tn
abominable, dreadful, disgusting, mast;
creatures!

THE OTHER WORLD.
By MRS. 81. B STOWE.

By MRS. h. B STOWE.
It lies around us like Cloud
A world we do not see
Yet the sweet losing Of an eye
May bring Us there to be.
Its gentle breezes fan our cheek,
Amid our earthly cares;
Its gentle voices whisper hope,
And mingle with our prayers.
Sweet hearts around US throb and beat,
Sweet helping hands are stirred:
And palpitftes the vail between
With breathings almost heard.
The silence, awful, deep and calm,
They have no power to break
For mortal words are not for them
To utter or partake
So thin, so soft, so sweetly they glide,
SO near to press they seem,
They seem to lull us to our rest,
And met into our dream.
And, in the hush of rest they bring,
IT'S easy now to see,
How lovely and how sweet a pass
The hour of death may be-
To close the eye, to close the ear,
Wrapt in frame of bliss,
And gently drawn in loving arms,
To swoon to that from this;
Scarce knowing if we wake or sleep,
Scarce asking where we are.
To feel all evil sink away,
All sorrow and all care.
Sweet souls around us watch us still,
Press nearer to our side;
Into our thoughts, into our prayers,
With gentle helpings glide.
Let dea, between US be naught,-
A dried and vanished dream;
Your joy be the reality;
Our suffering life, the dream.

Plum Creek, between FIVE hundred Sioux
and two hundred Pawt,ee scouts, lasting six
hours. The Sioux were routed with great
loss. The scouts have been reinforced by
United States soldiers. The Sioux are raj
lying south to the Platte river, and making
preparations for persistent war fare. Ali
the settlers at Big Creek have been driven
from there and their goods confscated
by the military The reason assigned
is that they had no U. S. License. Mr..

Select goetrg,
MY MOTHER.

All we'll do remember me,
In childhood's happy days.
OF meek-eyed, gentle mother
Who taught my lips to praise;
Who told me tales of years gone by,
And sung me oft to rest.
In pIaintive strains of melody,
When pillowed, on her breast.
All, we'll do I remember me,
when ripper years had come,
OF that mother tender counsels
In my own early home
And when I left, fhro' love Of change,
The scenes of joyous youth,
TWAS her voice that whispered low
The cords of love and truth.
All well do rem ember me,
When thro' the lapse Of yearss
bomersrd turned my weary steps
Thro' guilt, and wo, and tears;
That same sweet tone and melting eye,
To me Welcome gave.
Those sparkling eyes, those weie ONE tone
Are now but of the grave.
