Women Dentists in Germany.
From Deacon Richard Smiths Cincinnati Gaze,,

From Deacon Richard Smiths Cincinnati Gazette.
When Mrs. Dr. Hirschfeld graduated in
Philadelphia and returned to Berlin to
practice dentistry, her effort was pronounced
an experiment and a humbug that would
find no imitatois. On the contrary, her
success has been SO extraordinary that since
that time, four years ago, she now stands
very near the fulfilment of her wishes of
founding a female college, where the long
neglected duty of proper attention to chill
dren's teeth may be thoroughly studied.
Following Mrs. Hirschfelds example, three
other ladies have been to America, gradu-
ated with the highest honors, and returned
to the practice of their profession in Ger
many. Two were received with the highest
enthusiasm at their homes in East Prussia,
and the third fraulein, DR.. Jacoby, is now
i'll partnership with Mrs. Hirschfeld, whose
business was larger than she could possibly
attend to. Fraulein Jacoby is another ex-
ample showing whether women are capable
of the same amount of study as men, only
one young man in the graduating class in
Baltimore reached the same high number
with Miss ,Iacoby.

Fun and Philosophy.

Nr. Richard Grant White, i'll his book,
:" Words and Their Uses, severely criticises
the expressions, :" is being done,' sis be-
ing built" and like forms of speech. He
says that seventy or eighty years ago these
expressions began TO affront the eye, tor
ment the ear, and assault the common
sense of the speaker of plain and idiomatic
English. Instead of saying, for instance,
g the ark is being besilt,' MI. White would
say, s. the ark Is a basiJdiqsg," and in place
of :" the job is being done, 'the job is a

A Strong Illustration.


A correspondent of the Richmond En-
guirer tells the following story respecting a
Baptist preacher of strong common sense,
but very rough hewn theology, who was
widely known and much liked and respected
in Southside Virginia many years ago.
The old parson was preaching very earnestly
about the certainty and terrible nature aud
degree of the miseries of the damned, and
when he had succeeded in working up him.
self and his awe-struck auditory into high
degree of excitement, and the latter into
terrified admiration of his narrowing detail
of horrors, he capped the climax, after this
fashion: Ny friends, you all know Majol

how the White-hot Goals just melt mp iron

Some Ancient Riddles.

From Communication in Chicago Tribune
Another literary trihe upon which q vast
amount of time and ingenuity has been ex-
pended, is the riddle. Riddle making has
been popular in all ages and countries, and
not only the small wits, but the big wits,
of Greece, Rome, France, Germany and
England, have amused themselves with it.
Schiller, the German poet, was an adept in
this art, and some of his riddles are marvels
of ingenuity. Here is one by Fox, the
great English orator:
Formed long ago, yet made to-day
And most employed when others sleep:
What few would wish to give away,
And none would wish to keep.
The answer is-a bed.
DR.. Whewell, the late Master of Trinity
College, is credited with the following,
which was often on his lips. It would
battle sphynx:
U0a0 but l 0 thee
O0no O. hut O One:
Then let not my 0 a 90,
But give 0 0 thee So
Yon sigh for cipher, but sigh for thee
O sigh for no cipher, hut o sigh for me;
Then let not my sigh for a cipher 90,
Bat give sigh for sigh, for sigh for thee So
Whew. well done! we hear punninc
reader exclaim.
The following is inferior to the signing
riddle SO often repeated to his friends by
the author OF the "History of Inductive
Sciences but it is not the device of a
bungler:
Stand take 10 takings
| you throw my
understand
You undertake
10 overthrow
Ny undertakings.
Prof. De Morgan, author of the celebrated
work on ''Ihe Theory of Probabilities, - is
the author of a cunning punning riddle:
How do you know there is no danger of
starving i'll the desert? Because of the
sand acIich is there. And how do you know
that you will get sandwiches there? Be-
cause Hum went into the desert, and his
descendants bred and mustard.

Curculio- Catching.

Our peaches, plums, cherries, aud
other fruits suffer SO much from curcu-
lios in the south that we keep sharp
lookout for some invention that wifi
give fruit-growers new and decisive
advantage. Caleb Brown, Sofg Norwalk,
Ohio, manages his orchards with con-
trivance which is thus described /: It
consists of o large cloth hopper, on q
two-wheeled barrow, which is driven
under the tree, the different branches
of which are Jared with FOUNDER on a
pole, and consequently, may be used
for any tree, however large. The in
sects drop into the hopper, which is
made of polished rubber cloth, and roll
or slide down it's smooth surface into a
box at the center. The touch OF lever
closes this box, and holds all the insects
securely until the orchard isfinished.
The chief advantages of this contrivance
are the smooth .rhbber cloth over which
the insects.roii freely, 4and which does
not become wet with. dew; the. jarring
with pole-haudled mallet, and the
ready closing of the box which holds
the insects. Apple, pear, peach and
plum orchards may he rapidly cleared.

Caution Concerning the use of Paris

danger In the mixing OF this green for

possible, aad should be carefully
washed after working with it. or with
any OF the preparations of which it is
an ingredient. AS it penetrates and
poisons wood, gets into the seams and

neverSagain used for any other purpose.
Malignant sores are not unfrequently
caused by scratching the 'skin when

the free use of milk as o beverage is re-
commended, but hydrated proxide of

can be obtained from any druggist or
