NKw YORK, January s.-About four
months ago a genteel foreigner, about
a years old. calling himself Count
Maurice De Fec, took apartments with
: private family on Twelfth Street, and
spologized for his quiet way of living
" stating that remittances from his
mother, In France, the Countess DE
fez, had failed to reach him. He lived
q Spanish and French restaurants, and
@ mgraaiated himself with the pro-
prietofs that he was allowed to run up
large bills. He claimed acquaintance
With leading resident foreigners, and
talked for . time of taking service IN
he Cuban army In the meantime he
became very attentive TO progressing
young lady on Twenty-fourth Street, an
orphan, who owned the furniture Of the
house in which she lived The young
hdy disliked him, and when she refused
. proposition of marriage, he drew .
uistoi and threatened to shoot himself.
Her sisters became favorably impressed
With him, and on their solicitations she
agreed to marry him. 1t was
that the ceremony should be

aeely aftsr il the couple should ssdl for
France, WHARF, he said, they should set

Hygiene ofStAe Mouth.

DIR. John A. White, editor of the
Dental Cosmos, is the author OF a little
book recently published entitled "The
Mouth and the Teeth" In a chapter on
the hygiene of the mouth, DIR. White
points out how much mischief is wrought
by the use of unsuitable brushes and in
judicious scrubbingAby the resort TO
tooth powders and mouth washes made
in ignorance Of the purposes to be sub
served by their employment, and con-
tanning ingredients likely to be deposit
ed about the necks of the teeth, and thus
cause the absorption Of the gums and
~alveolar processes. There is no agent,
for instance, more commonly employed
for cleansing the teeth, or more deserv-
ing of utter condemnation, than pow
dered charcoal. Again, the large ma
jority Of persons err in choosing brushes
which are too stiff and too large, and in
applying them too vigorously. A very
moderate application of a soft brush,
with a gentle FRACTIONAL powder, such as
precipitated chalk, is sufficient for the
external surfaces of the teeth; it is quite
unnecessary TO use the powder oftener
than Onc = day,-the best time for such
purpose being just before retiring. The
morning cleansing may be properly per-
formed with the aid of a little pure,
mild soap, like white CASTLE, and for
rinsing the mouth after meals, he
recommends tcpid water, to which
has been added a few drops of
spirits of ammonia or lime water. The
use of a quill toothpick after meals to
dislodge particles of food from between
the teeth is advisable, as is also the use
of a strand IF waxed floss silk, passed
between them at least one daily. Per-
haps no single article is more useful rs
a wash, iH various disordered conditions
of the mouth, than phenol sodique, a
preparation made from tar. According
to our author it unites the properties of
an antacid, al astringent, a sedative, a
styptic, an antiseptic, and a disinfectant.
1t checks, we are told, excessive bleed
ing after extraction, and relieves the
subsequent soreness of the gums. Pro-
vided there are no local, exciting, me
| chanical causes, it will be found effective
also in that class of eases of soft, spongy,
swollen gums which bleed at the slight
est touch. This preparation may be
used diluted, more or less, according to
the varying indications, from half a tea.
spoonful to q tablespoonful, being mixed
with a tumblerfui of water. These sug-
gestions, we need not say, are not in
tended by DIR. White to encourage a de-
pendence upon any of the articles speci-
fled, SO much as to discourage the use
of unsuitable dentifrices and washes,
and especially Of all advertised or secret
preparations warranted to harden the
gums and whiten the teeth.

COrns.

Corns consist Of iayers of thickened
epidermis-the transparent coating that
protects the sensitive true skin beneath.
This epidermis is in constant process of
formation from the true skin, and is as
constantly being thrown off in minute
particles. IL Is as destitute Of feeling as
the nails; indeed, the nails-as also the
scales on, the legs Of fowls and on the
bodies of fishes-are only modified
epidermis. COrns are among the
cr~escences " of civilization. A higher
fertilization, however, which shall con
form the shoe to the foot, instead of the
foot to the shoe, will know of them only
as we know Of the crushed feet Of
Chinese women. A thickening OF the
Repidermis having been caused at the
points of special pressure, this infiames
still further the skin beneath, giving rise
to successive layers of thickened epider-
mis-, which not be thrown off like
ordinary scarf-skin. Between the vital
force beneath, and the pressure Of the
shoe above, the central portion comes to
havefhe harinsss of nail. II, . spintes
is left in the finger, the flesh above and
around il will die, and new skin be
formed below, which will in time lift the
splinter out. But in the case of corns,
natures efforts are thwarted by the per-
sistent pressure from above, which on
stantly enlrges the o from below.
The first step toward relief is to Sc
cure a shoe anatomically correct in con-
~strxcion. Meanwhile, remove the pres
sure from the com in whatever Way
may be possible. A pointed knife ran
down carefully between the layers will
easily take out-for the time-the Gen.
trail core. Sometimes it can be picked
out with the nail, after soaking the feet
three successive nights in warm water.

were made by Rev. Fathers Quinn,
Wood; Frederick and others, formerly
Roman Catholic priests. 1t was stated
that many priests were ut present en-

Quinn, president Of the organization,
was daily In receipt OF communications
from priests who were preparing to aban-
don Romanism, and were most anxious
to labor for the benefit Of the poor
people In the extension OF the true prin-
ciples and practices Of Christianity.
Letters were read from several priests
in various parts Of the country, saying
