How TO CURE A ToOTHACHE.-
Some months ago an English tourist.
lingering in a country church yard,
was present at funeral, and obsery-
ed among the group of mourners a
young man, who particularly attrac-
ted attention by his swollen face, and
the utter detection of his appearance.
"Here at least is one true mourner,"
thought the Englishman. While this
thought was passing through his
mird the supposed mourner took up
a skullwhich lay on the top of heap
of dry mold and crumbled bones. He
raised it to his lips, and, with his own
teeth, extracted a tooth from it.
Horror filled the stranger AS he
watched this proceeding, and saw
him throw the skull carelessly away,
while he wrapped the tooth in paper
and put it in his pocket. "Can you
tell me why he did that" asked our
tourist of an old man who stood be-
side him during the funeral cere-
mony. cay, surely. your homer, the
poor boy was very bad vii the tooth
ache, an It's allowed to be cure if
you draw a tooth fras skull VII
your ain teeth. He'll sew the tosth
in his clothes an wear it as long as
he lives" "You don't tell me so ?
Do you think the remedy will be
effectual ?" "It's like enough, SIR"
replied the old man, showing where
tooth was sewed in the lining of
his own waiscOat. "It's five years
since pulled that one the same way,
an | never had touch o. the tooth
ache since"

only be a wrong to the families vlsi-
ted, but would work an injury to the
census, by rendering the members OIL
those families less disposed to give
information with fullAess and exacI-
ness. 1t is entirely possible for the
enumerator to be prompt, rapid ana
decisive in announcing his object ana
his authority, and in going through
the whole list of questions to be pro-
posed, and at the same time not 10
arouse any antagonism or give any
offense." The questions must be
answered, whether it is agreeable to
do so or not. The fourteenth section
of the act of March 3, 1879, which
provides for taking the census, de
clareS:
That each and every person more
than twenty years of age belonging
to any family residing in any emu
meration district, and in case OF the
absence of the heads and any other
members of such family, then any
agent of such family shall be, and
each of them hereby is, required, If
thereto requested by the superinten-
dent, supervisor or enumeration, to
render a true account, to the best OF
his or her knowledge, of every per-
son belonging 70 such family, in the
various particulars required by law,
and whoever shall willfullv fail or
refuse shall be guilty of a misde
meanor, and upon conviction thereof
shall forfeit and pay sum not ex-
ceeding one hundred dollars,
The enumeratOrs are not to fake
statistics of mining in any of its
branches, including coal and the pro.
duction of petroleum. nor of tele-
graph, express. railroad or insurance
companies. All these statistics will
be gathered by Special Agents, ap-
pointed directly from the Census
office at Washington.
Each enumeration is to make out
on kind of postal card daily re
port Of his work, and the time he
was actually and necessarily employ
ed, and forward a copy to the super
visor and one to the superintendent
of the census.
When the enumerator's work is
completed he is to file, in the Office
of the clerk of the county court, a
list of all persons, with age, sex, color,
ETC., enumerated by him, and give
written advertisement at three or
more public places that he will attend
at the court house to make any cor
rection of his enumeration that may
be necessary. The result of this cor
rection he shall "make known to the
bystanders, if any,"
The compensation of ehumerators
varies according to the care or diff
Guilty with which their work is per-
formed. The only fixed rates are:
For each death reported, five cents
for each establishment of productive
industry on general schedule, fifteen
cents, and for each establishment of
productive industry on special sched
ule of manufactures, twenty-five
cents. The maximum allowance for
each farm reported will be 124 cents,
and for each living inhahitant. 9
cents. The pay Of each enumerator
is to be ascertained and fixed by the
superintendent. and, says the instruc-
tions, twill be left to be determined
by their the euumerators' own
energy, promptitude and industry in
the discharge of their duties,'
