money. The stranger on the same night prom

his money, and Green pulled his watch out
telling him to ''buy one like this" The stranger
asked to see it, and after looking at it asked for
the loan of it for a few days. so that he might
be able to judge of the character of the watch.
Green consented, and the man walked off with
the watch, leaving the green Green OF Kendall
Green minus time piece. Neither the stran-
ger nor the watch have turned up since.

ti0Hal Aediedt Journal, edited by Chris. G. Cox.
NJ. d., LII. D., Professor of Anatomy and Med
ical Jurisprudence and Toxicology in George
town College. In the Dental Department of
this number we find a communication on behalf
OF the Washington Dental Society, by its presi-
dent, X. Finley Hunt, urging upon the medical
profession the adoption of gre ater precautiona-
~ measures to avoid the serious injury to the
teeth so often resulting from the admixture OF
tonics of an acid character. 1t is earnestly
urged upon physicians that, when they find 1t
necessary to prescribe acid tonics, they enjoin
upon their patients, in addition to the present
ordinary precautions, to use freely as a mouth
wash some antacid, such as hme-water or hi
carbonate Of soda, bearing in mind always that
1t is far better for the teeth that the fluid OF the
mouth should be OF an alkaline than Of an acid
type.
