FOOD THAT rs POISONED

by unclean teeth breeds dyspepsia Such,
at least, is the declared opinion of medi-
cal men. Remedy the evil with purifying
aromatic SOZODONT, which clears away
corrosive particles which lodge in the
teeth and produce an acid felment, that
in time destroys their enamel and ruins
them. 1t prevents the unspeakable an,
noyance caused by defective teeth, if il
is used while they can yet be saved from
the destructive effects of tartar and Other
impurities.

WON TUE BET AND THREE KISSES.
The Remarkable Wager That Was Made
By Clever Young Man.


A young man who lodged Mt q house in tho
country, where there were three coy damscls
who seemed to imagine that men arc terrible
creatures whom il was an objectionable sin
to look at, was one afternoon accosted by an
acquaintance, and asked what he thought Of
the three young ladies.
Ho replied that they wore SHY and reserved,
so much so that no gentleman could got
near enough to tell the color Of their eyes
" Yet will stake u million that l will kiss
all three without any trouble"
THAT you cannot do" cried the friend,
" it is an achievement which neither you nor
any man can accomplish"
The other was positive, and invited his
friend to the house to witness his triumph.
They entered tho room together, and the
three girls. were at home sitting beside their
mother, and they all looked rs prim and
domure as u mustard pot.
Our hero assumed very grave aspect, oven
to detection, and, having looked wistfully at
the clock, breathed sigh as deep as algebra
and rs long as u female dialogue at the street
door. His singular department. attracted tho
attention of tho girls, who cast their slow
opened eyes up to his countenance, Perceiv-
ing tho impression ho had made, ho turned to
his companion and said
at wants three minutes of the time"
"Nfr. c., pray, what do you think of?'
Nothing" replied he, in lugubrious
tone, but that last night spirit appeared
unto me-"
Here tho girls rose to their feet and drew
near.
And tho spirits gave me warning that
should die exactly Mt II o'clock to-day, and
you see 1t wants but u minute of the timcp
The girls turned pale, and hidden sympa-
thics were at once awakened for tho doomed
They stood chained to the spot, looking alter
nately at the clock and at the unfortunate
youth.
lIo then walked up to tho eldest of the
girls, and taking her by the hand bado her u
solemn farewell. IIo also imprinted kiss
upon her trembling lips, which sho did not
resist. He then bado tho second and third
farewell in the same ailcCtionato manner.
His object was achieved, and that moment
the clock struck twelve. Hereupon he
looked around surprised, and calculated,
who would have thought that an appariton
would tell such u licP"
1t was somo time before the sober maidens
understood the joke, and when they did they

No,ys Of Mai. Nickersnn.

1t is currently reported that Maj. Nickcrson
is insane, and that this malady has been
caused by the terrible mental strain he has
undergone of late, conjoned with the opening
of an old wound received in the late war.
He is now at Th0rold, Canada, closely
guarded by two United States detectives, one
of whom stays in the same house with him,
while the other is located about mile away.
Figuratively speaking, their eyes are never
of him. The first moment he crosses the
dividing line between Canada and the United
States they will arrest and convey him to
this Gits! From gnothcr sourco report comes

Tho nsncon,s Misfortune.

The following is from report Of trip in
q sleeper from New York to Philadelphia,
published in tho New York Times:
The deacon had u little misfortune but he
didn't find il out. He was very fussy, aud
could not sit long in one position. The um-
brellas stored in the rack over his seat re-
quired his constant attention. When the car
warmed up little he had to take of his over
coat, and it was at this stage that he began to
attract the attention and excite the envy of
his fellow-passengers The coat was Chick
one, aud as he pulled it off it naturally drew
up the skirts of his under coat The skirt
on the left-hand side dropped gracefully
back TO tho natural position, but the
skirt on tho right-haHd side met with an
obstruction and Remained elevated.
What ob5tructed is was something stick
ing in that useful part of gentleman's
apparel l;nowWas pistol pocket. When he
turned his, ,back to the part of the car in which
/ was sitting, to hang up his oveIcoat, this
something becamo painfully apparent. The
tall of his neat black coat was firmly wedged
between the something protruding from tho
pistol pocket and the remainder of his cloth

of flask. None of your aesthetic little two
gill TASKS, covered with leather but strictly
business flask, holding good square pint,
with cork in the end. Everybody in my
part of tho car saw it and admired IL. People
nudged each other with their elbows and
pointed to it, In happy ignorance of His ex-
posure the deacon presently walked to the
front of the car to 500 whether we were still
Oh the track. If he had known how many
people were laughing at him perhaps it would
have spoiled tho enjoyment of the drink he
soon afterward went out to the wash room
