Once upon . time there was . young
lAdy who had three pretty new teeth N
her mouth. She boughtth OF . den
list. and they were fastened TO . beautiful,
poAent yulcanixad rubber plate. This young
indy could eat almost anything with her
new teeth, and she felt very proud Of them ;
they were 20 useful, and looked 20 well
when she smiled. One day abe was eat
ing dinner, Just - fast - she could. ana
abe got choked with 9 piece Of bone.
Then she ran into the woOdshed and
coughed until the tears came into her
eyes, and her father came out and pound
cd her shoulders, and her mother made
her drink pint Of water, and, finally. she
got better; but alas! her new teeth were
gone. SO herself and her father, and her
mother, and her two sisters, and her big
brother, and the servant girl, and the
neighbours little boy, looked al over the
woodshed for those teeth, but they could
not find them. Then the young lady was
scared, and abe said to her mother: 20
mother, felt something had In my throat
when I drank that water, and / have
swallowed my teeth, and ! shall del
know shall die and what shaN l dor
That scared the mother, and she put the
young lady In bed and sent for the doctor.
Well, the teeth made her very sick. You
know how thin people get sometimes from
the cravings OF remorse, and OF course
the cravings of three patent porcelain
teeth would be much worse. The doctor
could do nothing, and the young lady
kept getting worse and worse, until the
doctor said she could not live more than
twenty-four hours. That very day the
neighbours little boy found the three lost
teeth in the back yard, where they hae beer
thrown while the young lady was cough
ing. He took them in and showed them
to the young lady, who said she felt q
good deal better, and got up and dressed
She is well now; but she always takes
ont her teeth before eating dinner.--Utiec

Good News for Bald Heads.

The Carrollton MISSY Conservastss
says: 1--WE have heard it stated several
times that Mr.. Samuel Bryant who
heretofore had been barefaced on the top
Of his head, had, by the use or coal oil,
grown thick coat Of hair on the afore-
said bald head. We saw Mr.. Bryant on
Monday last, and on examination found
the statement to be correct. Mr.. Bryant
told ~ that the way he found out this
new property of coal oil was simply this !:
He had large boil on the bald place on
the top Of his head, which gave him much
pain, and In the absence OF anything else,
he rubbed coal oil on II. he says 1t re-
lieved the pain almost instantly, 20 he
continued TO rup on the oil until the boil
was entirely well, when, to his surprise,
he found . thin coating Of hair coming
out over the bald place. He continued
the nee Of the oil for month or two, and
now has heavy coat Of hair on his head.
This II no humbug, but the simple truth,
and We advise our bald-headed friends to
try the experiment"

Rat.Catchers.

There are professional destroyers OF
vermin who contract by the monta or
quarter to remove rats, mice and reaches
from hotels, restaurants, etc. Some hun
tiers of small deer also furnish live rats in
large numbers, within twenty four hours
from order, for the exhibitions of dog
pits. They do not keep the rats on hand,
but catch them as required. 1t is
generally believed, and is perhaps true,
that they use some bait or attractive
scent in trapping the vermin. Such is

sEDGwICK CITY.


Having just visited this promising
young town, we think it duty we owe
some of the many readers of the News
to give them a description of the place
which promises above all others soon
TO become the great commercial center
of the southwest. It is situated on the
Little Arkansas river, near the mouth
of Semer creek, in the center of the
land grant to the Atchison, Topeka s.
Santa Fe railroad, and in one of the fl
nest valleys it has ever been our for
tune to behold. The bottoms on the
streams here are not surpassed in ex-
tent or fertility by any in Kansas, while
we have never yet seen any uplands that
would at all compare with those in this
portion of Sedgwick county. Rolling,
but not broken, they are adapted to all
kinds of grain and offer to fruit grow
ers a rare chance to sustain the reputa-
ton Kansas has already won. The cli-
mate is mild, requiring but little feed,
the stock in many cases providing for
themselves the entire winter, the mos
quito or buffalo grasses furnishing excel
lent grazing the whole season. Sick
ness is almost unknown. l found the
the physicians all busy farming, and
they told me their professional services
were seldom required. Fever and ague,
the scourge of most new countries, is
here q rarity.
Sedgwick City, though but q few
months old, is not paper town but a
fixed fact, as the substantial buildings
l saw going up will amply testify.
Lumber of all kinds is in such de-
mand that it is often sold before il
reaches the yard; while many families
are encamped on various parts of the
town site waiting their turn for mate
rial to build with.
A fine schoolhouse just completed
shows that the settlers here are of the
right stamp and will make ample pro
vision for mental improvement. A
schoolhouse and no grog shop is nov
city in new towns in Kansas, and GER
tainly speaks well for the place, and
Sedgwick, though the youngest town
can boast of having the only school
house in the county.
We found here two grocery stores
doing thriving business. Shoemakers
blacksmiths, carpenters, carriage ma
kers, all with more work than they
could do.
The Atchison, Topeka s. Santa F.
railroad will reach here next season
We have it fIom reliable sources tina
the directors of this road have decided
that the road should not stop again un
til it reached this point, and thereby Sc
cure the immense cattle trade which
now passes directly by here on the wa.
to Abilene or Salina. Business mel
are already foreseing the future, ant
some twenty-five business houses ar
now under contract.
A prominent firm in Chicago has al
ready sent an agent here to make ar
rangements for building cattle yards t.
be used next season.
With its splendid location for bus

who are identified with its success, W
