IMPURE BREATH,

Among all the disagreeable consequences
that follow the decay of the teeth, an i'm
pure breath must be the most notifying
and unpleasant to its possessor, and it is
the most xcusibleand offensive in society
and yet the cause of it may easily be re-
moved by cleansing your teeth daily with
that Justly popular dentrifrice, Fragrant
SOZODONT. 1t purifes and sweetens the
breath, cools and refreshes the mouth, and
gives pearl-like appearance to the teeth.
Gentlemen who indulge in smoking should
cleanse their teeth with SOZODONT. as
it removes all unpleasant odors of the weed.
Ask your druggist for it.

A DRUMMER'S REVENGE.

Young Bummelhans has just been dis
charged by his employer, old Twopercent
The facts are as follows: Bummelhans haC
just returned from trip over the State. His
trip had been very satisfactory to himself, per
haps, bat not SO to his employer. He hao
spent great deal of money in buggy-rides
and one thing and another, and had taken
| very few orders. When Bumnelhans called
in to see the old man the latter was as mad as
the mischief. He said 81 don't pelieve you
makes any effort to sell geots. Ven vas a
drummer l always sold goots to de merchants
no matter ven dey don't want any. l made

Bummelhans came very near replying that
it was the reputation of his principal that pre-
vented him from selling anythingl but he re-
strained himself.
" How did you used to manage to sell goods
when you were drummer T.

you sits down in chairs. You PEGS a country
merchant, play now de drummer"
"All right" says Bummehans, "I'll be a

Bummelhans pretended to be writing at his
desk, and old Twopercent came up from one
side, bowling and scraping
" Goot morning. Can't l sell you some

hans, looking up.

press upon his employer the difficulties of
drumming up trade. Brummelhans kicked
the old man four Or five times, pushed him up
in corner and choked him for while, and
then told the old gentleman, who was speech
less with bona fde rage, eff you ever come in
here again I'll not leave whole bone in your

THE SHREwD DUTcHMAN.-In early days in

by a German and an Italian. The Italian was
considered a very smart man but his simple
minded partner was looked upon as very
dull witted person. The business was SO

kicked up a row with his partner to have
some sort of an excuse for a dissolution.
The Italian insisted owning the whole

that he had not succeeded. They met to fix
up the last negotiations. 1t was a question
of give or take, and the Italian in order to
placate his outgoing partner made it proviso
of the sale that the man who went out should
have the privilege of treating his friends to
free champagne that night. This proposition
seemed to please the simple Dutchman i'm
mensely. The Italian laughed to himself for
the saloon was just out of champagne, and he
had purposely refraned from getting another
invoice. Finally concluding he had his part

the law on the subject of business dissolu-

| The STONE WOMAN FRAUD.-On Wednes
day last an agent of the Academy of Sciences
! of San Francisco came up to the Lake to ex-
! anime the petri6ed woman which had been
purchased by L. F. Wilson of the Italian
finder for 1925. Mr.. Wilson it appears had
taken the liberty of purchasing the woman in
| behalf of the society and had telegraphed to
San Francisco to that effect. As soon as his
dispatch was received the society telegraphed
back to bin not to purchase until he was sure
that the relic was genuine and at once sent
Mr.. Frank Unger up to expert the matter,
Mr.. Wilson being considered something of a
novice in such matters. Mr.. Unger arrived
on Wednesday and after making thorough
examination pronounced the relic bogus. He
gave as his opinion that the woman had been
carved out of stone by the Indians or else that
the italian fishermen had put up job to
make a little money. When thoroughly
cleaned the marks of age we're found wanting
aud the composition of the woman evidently
did not belong to the class known as petrifac-
lions. Mr.. Unger sawed off hand and
showed Mr.. Wilson that the grain indicated
nothing more than the ordinary stone and that
the figure also showed marks of the chisel.
Mr.. Wilson refused to accept Mr.. Unger's
theory and insisted that he knew more about
petrifactions than any man alive. Mr.. Unger
retorted that man was quite liable to be de-
ceived by woman, but woman must be
alive in order to deceive him. No spurious
woman in the shape of a fossil could be
palmed off on him and he refused to recon-
Wilson, who had purchased the relic in the
hope of selling it to the society at an advance
was very wroth to be left with stone woman
on his hands which possibly might never have |
been endowed with voice or pulsation. Mr.. |
Wilson increased his wrath by calling .atten-
ton to the fact that the jaw gone and
any body was fool who though that the jaw,
was the strongest thing about a woman could
ever have succumbed to decay. Mr.. Wilson
lere limited that any more of Unger's jaw
would result in the mutiation of it, Mr..
woman, which is held by Wilson. At the
lext meeting of the Academy he&ill read
'aper giving detailed account of his inves
igations and scattering the absurd theories of
Ir. Wilson. The fact that there had been
UGH a contention over the relic has led many
0 believe that it was once woman after ALL
