Toothache.

THE researches made by DR.. Sillin,
one of the most experienced OF Euro
pean dentists, have led him to the opiu-
ion that common or acute toothache pro-
ceeds from causes but little considered
or understood. In the center OF every
tooth, he says; there is cavity c9rre-
spending to the shape of the tooth itslf,
and into this cavity passes, through a mi
mute aperture at the end each root, a
branch of nerve, an artery, and a vein;
and when, either by mechanical injury or
decay, this cavity becomes exposed to the
airs action, the blood thickens or coagu-
lates to an extent beyond the capacity Of
the vein to remove in the natural way;
Inflammation ensues and pain COM
mences, at first slightly; more blood is
pumped in at every pulse Of the heart,
through the branch Of the artery, and,
the hard material of which the tooth is
formed being unyielding, a pressure is set
up on the walls ofsthe cavity and its con-
tents, including the nerve. This press
ure is increased at every pulse with
great precision, causing intense ana
hourly Increasing pain, commonly known
as acute toothache. Another very gen.
eral but less painful kind is that arising
| from inflammation OF the root ana socket

money, and, should my fate remain un-
known, my creditors would think had
fled to defraud them, and my name would
be stigmatized.
II will not dwell on the agonies en-

"The morning of the fourth day of my
imprisonment heard something crawl

ture large enough to admit him; closed

strings, tied them together, and on to the
fish-line. Iwore long gold watch chain;

leaves from my diary, wrote on them my
condition, and tied them on to that part
of the line that would be outside l then
tied the end made out of my shirt around
Jacks neck and let him out. He soon
reached the end of the line, and / knew
by the way he was pulling that he was
making desperate attempts to escape.

"All grew still again and knew the
man had gone for assistance Then

all the men who worked in the shaft nine
hours to reach me.
"A very large pine tree that stood near
the shaft had been the cause of my mis-
fortune. 1t had been dead number of
years, and the storm had blown it over.
The terrible blow it struck the ground
had caused the cave.
Jack had wound the line around
bush and tied himself so short that he
was imprisoned outside as securely as ]
had been inside. He was taken to town,
put in a large cage, and supplied with all
the rabbit delicacies the market afforded.
He, however, did not thrive, and the
boys, believing that he 'pincd in

taken back to his old girdling grounds
and liberated

the neighborhood-the miners refraining
from shooting any, fearing it might be

BEWARE or THE WOLF.

You need never fear, little children, to meet
wolf in the garden, the wood, or the street;
Red Riding Hoods story is only fable,
I'll give You its moral as well rs I'm able:
Bad Temper's the wolf which we meet every
where
Beware of the wolf little children, beware,
know Of boy, neither gentle nor wise,
If you tell him fault, he gives saucy replies;
If kept from his way in fury he flies
Ali PASSIONS the wolf with the rery large eyes:
'Tis ready to snap, and to trample and tear
Beware of the wolf, little children beware,
know Of girl always trying to learn
About things with which she should have nt
concern;
So much curiosity really appears -
To me like the wolf with the yery large ears.
All prickcd up to listen, each secret to share
Beware Of the wolf little children, beware.
And Greediness. that's like the wolf in the @oot
With the Uery large mouth ever prowling TO
That eats SO much more than for health can b,
good
That would clear a whole pastry-cook's shop if il
could:
That never a dainty to others will spare
Beware of the wolf little children, beware,
Passion, Pfying, and Greediness each thus ap
pears
As wolf with fierce eyes, = large mouth or big
ears;
They bring to our nurseries fighting and fears,
They cause bitter quarrcling, trouble and tears
OH chase them and cudgel them back to their
lair
Beware of the wolves. little children, beware.

stantial supper for the men and put them
up provisions for the night, and some of
the men and larger boys were chosen to
prepare pine torches, others to gather
together ammunition and firearms,
against hostile Indians and dangerous
wild beasts, but to give the signal agreed
upon of one gun if they. discovered any
traces of the lost child, two if found,

A Costume to Keep Ahoat.

A PARIS correspondent says: "An in
genious philanthropist of this city has
Just invented new apparatus for assist
ing shipwrecked persons in maintaining
themselves above water. The public
trial Of this apparatus took place few
days ago, and proved entirely success
ful. Two river steamboats, were provld-
ed by the smiling, enthusiastic, white
headed philanthropist, and conveyed a
numerous company Of friends-people
connected with the press, the clubs, the
army and navy and a sprinkling of mem
bers of the Legislative Assembly-to the
Billancourt Basin, just beyond Asineres
The new apparatus consists of "a costume
called by its inventor the 'Natator;' it
goes from the neck to the knees, fitting
close to the body, but susceptible of be-
ing worn over other clothing If time be
wanting for divesting oneself of ones or
binary apparel. From the armpits to the
hips the thing is double, forming the
case of an indiarubber tube that winds
round and round the body The upper
end of this tube has brass stopcock
through which the wearcr blows in air
with his lips, the process requiring only
a few seconds, and the volume Of air
thus introduced amply sufficing to pre-
vent the heaviest people from sinking.
II it be desired to dive, the wearer lets
out the air by merely opening the stop
cock. The Natator' will thus serve to
keep the shipwrecked from sinking, and
enable the heroic preservers Of human
life to reach those who, though kept
afloat by it, are unable to SWIM The
wearers of the Natator,' some of whom
wore It under their clothes, some over
them, while others had undressed and
wore nothing else, floated about the
steamers for an hour now seeming to
stand erect in the water, now lying upon
it, some smoking cigar, others reading
a newspaper or eating biscuits and sand
wiches from a little waterproof bag at
tached to the costume, laughing, talking,
and apparently enjoying their novel posi-
ton. A shower happening to come, one
of the swimmers opened and hoisted an
under which he continued his
watery promenade, to the great amuse-
ment of the spectators"

French School Discipline.

THE power of habit and tradition to
reconcile the mind to Objectionable prac-
ices, so conspicuous in English school
discipline, seems to be equally illus
trated by that of the French. The dc
termined objection of the public to any
kind of corporal infliction has led French
schoolmasters to invent a class of punish
ments which are doubtful improvements
on the more violent method. A CORE
spondent OF the Temps describes from his
own experience what was meant a dozen
years ago by being "kept ia" The term
then literally described the condition of
the small victim, who was actually locked
up in barred cage, containing a stool
and sliding table, which, when the boy
was seated, closed around him and shut
him in. Here he remained throughout
the whole day, without moving even for
his meals, and sometimes bed was
made up in the garret in which the cage
stood, and the punishment was renewed
next day. The writer who describes this
.contrivance states that, on one occasion,
he himself was almost suffOcated in this
cage in consequence of some smoking
logs falling out of the stove while he was
unable to restore them to their place

Pistol Practice in Washoe.

YESTERDAY afternoon, at a saloon on
the Divide, some men were discussing
the shooting affray which occurred dur
ing the morning between the two broth
ers-in-law, Fallman and Ward, as men
toned in another column. TWAS agreed
shnntine-a discredit to Washoe. At
man, whom he knew to be good shot
with pistol, to go out in the ack-yard
with him and do some shooting, just to
show the "boys" how it should be done.
In the saloon was box of eggs, and
what the Piocher proposed was that each
shoot two eggs off the bare head of the
other at the distance of ten PAGES, the
one missing to treat the crowd. The
Comstocker was not to be blutfed by a
man from the other end of the State, so
to the backyard all hands adjourned.
Each man used his own ix-shooter. The
Comstocker first "busted" his egg on the
top of the Piocher's head, which exploit
was loudly applauded by all present. 1t
was then the Piocher's turn to shoot, and
an egg was produced to be placed upon
the head of the Comstockcr but when
he removed his hat there was great
laugh, for the top of his head was as
smooth as billiard ball. For full ten
minutes all hands tried in vain to make
an egg stand on his head. 1t couldn't be
done. The Piocher then taunted the
Comstocker with having gone into the
arrangement knowing that he was safe.
| The latter told him to set up his egg and
it was all right-he was there. The Pho
| cher went into the saloon and moment
after came out with a small handful of
-four, which he dabbed upon the bald
head of the Comstocker, and triumph
antly planted in it his egg, fell back ten
steps and then knocked 1t off The Com
stocker then told him to set up his Sec
ond egg and shoot at it, as he didn't want
to have his head chalked twice during
the game. This was done, and the wreck
of second egg streamed over the Con
stocker's pate. The Piocher now stood
out with his last egg on his head. The
Comstocker raised his pistol and fired
The Piocher bounded yard into the all
and the egg bounced whole from his
head. "Ive lostr said the Comstocker

I've put half the width of my bullet

How a lack Rabbit Saved a Miners

WHILE my friend Clyde and myself
were out in the hills back of the Golden
Gate Park last week, jack rabbit came
along, and stopped to look at us.

married. Her father, with pride and
spice of humor, placed placard in the
