The Dentists.

Many persons can remember when
care for the teeth was of the rudest sort.
II a tooth ached. out it came--it had TO
come. even If it brought huge piece of
the jaw with it. No matter if the tooth
was sound, and thepain purely neuralgia,
it must be extracted. No means were
known of saving the teeth, when once
they began to decay. People bore with
em,-pain, stencil and miasmatic poi
son, AS long "a they could, dosing from
time to time with laudanum, cayenne
pepper, and hot bricks, and then sub
mitted to the inevitable. The number
of those whose chins and noses seemed,
with age, tending toward a conflict, was
large.
The dentists then were largely unedu-
Gated men. Since those days dentistry
has become worthy specially. 1t has
availeditself of the teachings fanatomy,
physiology, and the resources Of science
and art.
1t has multiplied and improved its in
strumcnts. 1t has given anasthesia to
the world, 1t has its dental colleges and
degrees. 1t has brought the microscope
to bear on its difficult problems, and has
created valuable literature.
1t has proved that the worst teeth can
be saved. 1t can build up new teeth
from the stumps of old ones. On tho
roots Of the eightfront upper teeth it can
now insert serviceable pivot teeth.
On plates of different materials it can
insert sets in full or in part, rivalling tho
natural. Celluloid is found to furnish
some Of tho best material for plates;
while platinum. vencered with porcelain
(called continuous gum-work), has be-
come the fashionable base for whole
sets.
There arc still many ignorant dentists.
Empty only those whose reputation
and work are the best.

A Boston Ohinaman's Funeral.

The funeral cortegc was formed at the
undertakers MONS, where large nuri-
Der of Cinnamon gathered shortly bcSrs
Up. M. to pay their last respects. Tho
remains were exposed to view for tho
last time. Chung was dressed in bs
best frock, trousers, white stockings ami
soft sandals, and had on even the broo'l-
brimmed. soft, black felt hat which his
people are SO fond of wearing. The re-
mains were inclosed in q rosewood cask-
ct, surmounted with silver handles. On
the plate were inscribed in Chinese HE
roglyphics his name, and the fact that
he was 80 years old. When tho lid was
closed the mourncrs became quite cheer
ful and chatty. and in q very short space
OF time score Of Cclestials were en-
. 'onced in four hacks and followed tho
c,rpse to Mt. Hope Cemetery. The cor
tege went at lively jog, the mourners
dropping along the streets little bits Of
paper Of various colors, all bearing Chi
nese characters. The picceso of paper
are supposed to bear implicit directions
showing the way the deceased should
reach heaven, as we'll ~ prayers for
Chung's safety. The cemetery WAS
reached with little delay. and the mourn
ers were soon knecling around the grave.
The burial rites were then begun, and
consisted in the burning of basketful
ofpaper, of all colors. in the bottom of
the grave. On these papers were printed
further instructions and prayers for tho
guidance and safety of Tung Chung on
his celestial journey. The body was
soon lowered and the casket sprinkled
with rice water. The mourners then
carried lighted tapers Of paper, during
which the grave was filled in. The
mound formed to mark the spot where
Chung lay was decorated with little
sticks resembling miniature rockets, and
these were soon lighted. They were
placed around the grave with the pur'
pose of afiording Chung candle ligh'
should darkness ovcrtako him on his
| journey to the spirit land. The mourn
crs continued to burn papers, and bull
a fire at the foot Of the grave, on which
they placed chickens. pork and rice, t.
be used by Chung should he get hungry
Wine was also placed at tho grave, SC
that, ut all events, Chung should no
suffer from thirst. These cercmonic
concluded the mourners returned to tn,
carriages and were driven to their re
spective wash-shops. The remains O
Tung Chung will be disinterred in afey
years, and what may then remain o
him will be subjected to the boiling pro

The bones, after being dried and scraped

The Way II Struck Her.

When an old maid takes to making
facetious remarks you can make up your
mind that her cat Is dead, or something
has occurred TO dcmoralize her aspira-
tons.
Two of them were overheard talking
the other day, and one remarked to the
other:
Don't you think Mr.. Briggs must be
remarkably intellectual man? He has
such high forehead"
"Why, his forehead isn't anything
compared to Mr.. Dood'sw said her com.
panion, ''for his runs right up over the
crown of his head, swoops down the
base of his brain, and so on oyer the
back of the neck to his shirt collar"

Ouieting the Insane.

Among the inmates of Western In
sane Asylum is q man who Is often per-
fcctly sensible, and when accosted at
such times causes visitors TO wonder
why he is confined there. This inmate
entered into conversation with caller
whose dress proclaimed him clergyman.
Said the mailman: ut was too bad, was
it not, the killing Of Grant at Chieago?"
at was, said the minister, who followed
the accepted custom Of asserting to tho
statements Of lunatics for peace sake.
"Hayes was assassinated at Cincinnati.
was he notg,' again asked the lunatic.
Eyes" replied the clergyman. "And
was not Queen Victoria murdered in her
palace" To this query from the mad
man tho clerical visitor once more an
swered in the affirmative. The lunatic
named one after another, dozen royal
pcrsonages, all whom the clergyman was
led TO admit were put out OF the way.
Finishing his catechism, the mailman
turncdto the clergyman aud said tiercely:
"Your dress would show you to be a
minister, but YOU are the worst liar
ever met"

How He Was Cured Of Swearing.

John came In and inquired whether
dinner was ready, and was told It was
not.
"Wcll, why in the devil isn't itr" said
no.

wood was so---wot that tho fire wouldn't
burn"
why, Mary, what is tho matter with

Neither" she replied, and quietly
proceeded 10 put on the dinner.
The beef didn't melt like butter be-
tween the tceth--it rather resisted all at
tcmpfs at mastication, like 30 much
India-rubber; and John, finally dropping
his knife, blurtcd OUT
"What makes this----beef 30 internal

Mary looked up archly and replied
well. John, ! suppose you went
down to the butchers and without know
ing the difference, picked out piece Of
some-----old stag that hadn't been fed
for month";
John jumped up, looked at his wife
in dismay, and wanted to know what
such language from her lips meant
1T means just this, John: you are the
head of the family, aud just as long as
You think it manly to swear in my pres

don't like to hear it you know now how
to prevent it."
The cure was radical, and to this date
Mary has never been compelled to adj
minister another dose of the prescription.

Spontaneous Forests,

A writer in Virginia paper combats
the opinion held by many arboricultur-
lists that open country is never converted
into . forest through the operation Of
natural causes, and rs establishing the
fact that such change does sometimes
occur, brings forward the case OF the
Shenandoah Valley. When first settled,
about one hundred and sixty years ago,
It was nm open, prairie-like region, COW
cred with grass, on which fed herds Of
deer, buffalo. elk etc, and having no
timber except on ridgy portions OF it;
but in consequence OF its settlement, tho
annual fires were prevented, and trees
spraDg up almost as thickly and regular
Is as X seed had been planted. These
forests, having been preserved ~ the
farmers. cover now large part OF tho
surface with hard wood trees Of superior
excellence. These facts would also seem

Don't Miss Tive mean, don't fail
to read the advertisement Of the we'll
known New Orleans clothing house of C.
Lazard & Co., which appears in this
issue of the CHIEF. There is probably
no mercantile establishment in tho city
that is more widely or better known
than this one, aud none that can offer a
larger Or finer range of goods at euch
reasonable prices. Situated opposite the
famous French Market, at point easily
reached by several Of the principal lines
Of street cars, it has become sort of
headquarters for a very large proportion
of the purchasers Of clothing who eau
not afford to pay the fancy prices
charged by ultra fashionable tailors and
dealers. The country trade Of this
popular house is very large aud all who
have dealings there are highly pleased
with their bargains. Readers Of the
CHIEF who visit the city to participate
in the festivities of Mardi Gras and the
4th of March should call on Messrs.
Lazard & Co, and take look at their
splendid stock. Goods Of all kinds aud
qualities at prices to emit all purses will

MAYOR of Now Orleans to MISS MAMIE s.
ANGER of lberville.
Despite the threatening appearance Of the
| weather and the almost impossible condi-
| ton of the roads, quite a large number of
persons assembled to witness tho ceremony
| which robbed Iberville of ono Of its fairest
flowers, who by her many gentle ways and
| unassuming manners has won fol- herself
| many warm friends and admirers, not only
| in her native parish, but at all places that
| she has visited as we'll. .'
| The groom true son Of the Sunny South
| in every sense Of the word, although n
comparative stranger in the parish, had
made many firm friends by his gentlemanly
! and genial disposition, and in consequence
was warmly congratulated upon the acqui
sition he had made in winning for his bride
such charming and fascinating young
lady, and on all sides received the most
sincere good wishes for his future happiness
and welfare.
After the contamination Of the nuptial
rites, tho wedding party aud few intimate
friends repaired to the residence of the
brides, mother, Mrs: Jos. Anger, by whom
they were royalty entertained with a
magnificent supper, sufficient to satisfy tho
most fastidious epicure.
To the happy couple We extend our
sincere congratulations and fervent prayers
for their future prosperity and MARTA
bliss. May their voyage through life be
calm and serene. never troubled by sorrow
or suffering. May joy and happiness ever
be loiterers around their path and the
clouds of trial and unhappiness never
dsrken the horizon of their welded bliss
and in case they should come, our most
earnest prayer is that they may be but
very little ones. 6ELLA.
