Missing Arctic Expedition

Great fears are entertained for tho
SAFETY OF IL Swedish expedition, sent out
under the direction Of Professor Nor
dcnskiold, the well-known Arctic OK
plorcr, with the view OF passing the
winter at Spitzberyen, and discovering
from that the open Polar Sea. In the
last days Of August the expedition,
consisting Of three vesse's-.ho Pol
holm, GLADDEN., and Onkcl Adam-waS
at the Norwegian Islands, and, ms tho
northeastern island Of tho archipelago
was inappropriate on account Of the
ice, tho leaders resolved to enter the
Hinlopcn Sound, between that island
aud Spitzhcryen, with tho view Of
reaching Lonmcbay. The Polhem,
with tho Gladan in tow, was seen to
pass Veriegcnhuk On the LIST Of Sep
TENDER, the northcrnmost point Of
Of Spitzbcrgcn $50 lat.,) and two days
later the Onkel Adam passed the same
point. 1t must have been the inten-
ton Of the lenders to make 1.ommebay
their winter quarters: and to fulfill this
tho Gladan and Onkcl Adam would
have to unload their cargo aud have to
return as soon as possible, only the Pol
hem being provided for winteri"g.-
But the telegram, sent on the Both Of
October, from the Governor Of Tromao
to tho Norwegian Department Of the
Interior, states that nothing whatever
has been heard sin e the beginning Of
September Of the two vessels, and it is
feared that they are, together with six
Norwegian sealers, caught by the ice.
II that should be the case, it il suppos-
ed that the men have lett the vessels
and taken to the bouts, and that they
have sought refuge on the western
coast Of Spitzbergen, where they have
some chance Of fiuding as yet open
waters. AS rather more than 100 lives

MANAGEMENT OF THE TEETH
Tartar is an earthly deposit, which is
made up of the solid constituents OF the
saliva, ana accumulates around the
necks and crowns Of the teeth. The
result of the deposit Of tartar about the
teeth is to cause the gums to be iritated,
and then looscncd from the teeth
When much tartar has. collected about
the teeth, it should be skillfully remov-
ed by a dentist, and only by dentist,
who will probably recommend some
preparation Of his own selection, to re-
store tone to the gums. The following
is good lotion, to be freely used after
the removal Of tartar, to strengthen the
gums Tarnin, one scruplc; brandy,
half an ounce; camphor mixture, four
ounces. TO be used as mouth wash,
night and morning.
In those in whom there is Opposition
to the formation Of tartar about the
teeth, it is only necessary for prevent.
ing its accumulation, to be very careful
to cleanse tho teeth thoroughly once q
day, better still twice, with u tooth.

better is it if the gritty Particles arc
soluble in water. The simple powders
composed Of chalk or cutie fish may be
with advantage employed -Go2cy's.

How often Should Cows he
MIXED

The following from the Irish Farm.
er's Gazette is worthy Of consideration
Regularity in the milking Of cows is
Of as much Importance as regularity in
feeding them. In state Of nature
the COW is relieved Of its milk a grea,
many times each day. A calf allowed
to remain with its mother will help it.
self seven or eight times day. I'm.
der such circumstances the udder oil
the cow will remain small, and If al.
lowed to retain the milk sccrcted dur.
ing twelve hours, feverish symptoms
arc likely to BE- produced. The prac-
tice Of milking cows more than twice
in the twenty. four hours causes tho ca.
pacity of the uddcr to be greatly in
creased. and probably helps in main.
tanning the tactical secretion loag after
pregnancy has taken place. When
however, by an artificial system, the
COW has been enabled to retain her
milk without Inconvenience for twelve
hours or so, she ought to be MIXED
regularly every day at the same hour
When the time for milking arrives, the
udder usually becomes distended to its
utmost capacity. and if it be not specdss
ily removed, the animal suffers con.
siderable pain. Cases of fever, the re.
suit Of allowing animals to remain toe
long unmilked, are, indeed by NJ mean,
of untrequent occurrence. 1t is espcc.
tally necessary to attend to this point
tor some days after the animal has
brought forth its young, for during
that period very little irritation of the
tactical organs is likely to bring on thai
most fatal Of maladies, puerperal fever
If milking be too long delayed, nature
will try to help the poor animal. An
absorption Of milk into the blood will
to some extent take place, and tha,
which remains in the uddcr will be-
come detoriorated When neglect to
milk COW at the regular time is re
peated several times, the secretion O
the fluid is permanently checked and
there are many cases whereby suci
neglect an animal has become dry in
less than month.

A Good Loan.

I Am going to tell you story abou,
three little children whum met no,
long ago. They showed me their little
wooden savings banks, which thci,
sick father had made for them for he
was too poor to buy tin cues, such at
you sometimes scc in shop Window, and
as Sumo Of you perhaps, have. Each
OF the children had some pennies which
he had saved, instead OF spending
them Tor candies. l asked them what
they were going to do with their money
They replied that they did not know
just then, but would find some use fol
it.
Some time after this l again visited
the homo Of these children, and picking
up ono Of tho little savings banks
found it empty. lnquiring what had
become Of tho money, one Of the chill
dren told nc that they should be care
full to whom they loaned money, else
they might never get it back again
I'VE have lent it," said they, "to Ono
who is ever SO rich!'
"What rich. and borrowing pen.
Mes 7" we exclaimed. They then told
NC this story
"One day a missionary Of the Gospel
came to the town. lie was poor, and
was on his way to neighborhood in
which the people were noted for their
wickcaness. lie was going to preach
to them While riding along his horse
lost shoe, aud he had no money left
to pay a smith for putting it on. The
horse was getting lame from travelling
without the shoe, and 80 We emptied
our savings banks, and gave him the
money. And doesn't the Bible say that
if we give to the poor We lend to the
Lord So yon ste, We have put it Out
at interest and we have no doubt that
We shall be repaid-not, perhaps, in
money, but in blessings. Besides, BY
helping the missionary on his way w
have helped spread Gods Word, which
teaches sinners the WY to get t
heaven"
Don't you think, children, that We
might all learn a lesson from the
action of these little children? Some
Of US are not so poor as they, and yet dc
not d, as o'uch ? They like the widow
gave all; we give only small part Of
what we have Let US pray that the
Lord will give Us liberal hearts, go that
We may not refuse to give literally, &C.
cording as he has blessed us with the
means, for the spreading Of His Word
