1T WASN'T THE TooTHAcuE,

In the ladies' waiting room at the Cen.

married couple from Grass lake. They
had been visiting In the city two or three

They sat aide by side, OF course, his arm

shoulder. A long wasted stranger from
the East, having sore eyes aud big
heart, walked 10, saw tben time sea,ed'
and IN about minute he asked OF the
husband;
Has that woman there got the tooth,

The husband looked up IN surprise, but
made no answer. After two or three
minutes the long.waisted mau again re-
marked:
II that woman has got the toothache
I've got a bottle OF peppermint In my
satchel here.
The bride rolled her big white eyes
around, aud the husband looked some
what embarrassed. The man from down
East unlocked bis satcbel. fnmbled among
shirts aud collars, and brought up four
ounces OF peppermint essence. lie nn.
corked IL, touched the contents Of the
bottle against bis big red tongue, and,
handing Il forward toward the husband,
feelingly said

AN ExTHAoRoINARY ESCAPE.


In the winter of 1878, very unsea
worthy merchant sailing-vessel Ga Siam
ese), the Tye Wat, set out from the nortl
of China to Siam, with cargo OF bean
cake, etc. The weather became excess.
ivoly stormy, and at last the old vesse
went actually to pieces many miles frou
land ia the Gulf of Pe.che-le. The crew
consisted of eight Malays, who worked
the ship; the captain, an Englishman
and in addition was one Chinese woman
They had no boats on board, no time 10
make a raft or means of doing SO; and, a.
the vessel was rapidly sinking, the
wietched people looked around in de-
spair. when hope OF escape struck one
OF them as his eye lighted on q large
wooden water tank which was on deck.
This tank was strongly msde, about six
feet long, five feet across and five feet
high, with a large hole at the top Into
which man could squeeze, and a tight
fitting cover There was not moment
TO lose; hoe was bored Ia the bottom
to let ont the water II contained, then
quickly plugged, and all ten squeezed
themselves in burridly, put on the lid,
and awaited their fate. In quarter oi
an hour after they were thus packed the
ship sunk under them. They first whirled
round, aud then foated on freely, aud
felt themselves rolling aud tossing about
frightfuily on stormy sea. The wealth
ef was intensely cold--so much that the
icicles had hung from the rigging OF the
sunken ship the day before; and being SO
tightly packed, perhaps Il was so fortu.
nate the weather was 50 cold. In their
haste TO rave life, they bad brought only
part Of ham which the captain had
snatched up, aud a bottle Of brandy and
thus these poor creatures were tossed
about from day to day, hungry aud thirsty
joslled like potatoes shaken in barrel
now and then, when they dared. letting
in little air by lifting the lid. The sit
uation strongly reminds one OF Gulliver
