bill, called out doubtless by the same
case. And Mr.. Phillips may be a very
good consul, but listen to him, as lie
tries to prove that very little work had
been done; as President Blanco twas
going to Paris, and while there on a
long stay, could of course command the
best talent in the world" Ofcourse he
could, even if he should send to America
to get if!
The foregoing seems to have attracted
the attention of Life" which relieves
itself as follows:
Several of our esteemed contemporaries
have recently made a prodigious fuss
over bill of 81 900, which was presented
by appointment local dentist to a Vene-
zuelan General for four days work upon
the teeth of the latter's wife. It is Yery
evident that our esteemed contempora-
ries have but little idea of the expense
involved, in gold mining in Venezuelan
back teeth;-and as simple act of Justice
we publish the following items. twill
be borne in mind that the rules are
those fixed by the College of Odontologi-
cal Ethics, and are in vogue throughout
the United States and Canada:
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1884-10-26

The New York Tribune says: In con
nec.ion with DR.. Atkinson's bill of
$1,000 for q small amount of work
on the teeth of members Of President
Blsneo's family, it was learned yerter-
day, that when the bill was rendered to
General Blanco he sent check for 800,
with a note stating that he thought a
cipher had been added by mistake. DR..
Atkinson sent back word that there
was no mistake; the amount was $1,000
as first submitted The General was
somewhat surprised. He said he was
willing to give double the amount of his
theck, though that struck him as being
rather high rate for, the work done.
However, he was averse to have any
dispute and was about to send the full
amount claimed, when hisfriends inter-
fered and persuaded him TO place the
matter in the hands of BOultOn, Bliss &
Callet. This firm IS indeavoring to
make a compromise with the dentist.
Mr.. Boulten yesterday refused to say
anything about the matter. Consul G.
4. Phillips, who was seen at the Vene-
zuelan consulate, said:
There is but little more to tell. Mr..
Boulton is endeavoring to come to some
agreement with the dentist and l pre-
sumo the matter will shortly be settled. "
is there and possibility of legal
acton?"
None that l can see. General
Blanc0 is on a diplomatic mission and
could not be sued or held. He is one of
me most generous and free-handed OF
m0rtalS, and the matter worried him
exceedingly. He wanted to pay the 81, :
VJJ, but We would not let him. There
was really very little work done, for he
was going 20 Paris and while there on a
long stay could OF course. command the
nest talent in the world. DR.. Atkinson
took a remarkably long time over what
Sle did for the family"
The Ohio State Journal Of Dental

The CASE 4i ~
NoptaRS for
The Wellington enterprise. [volume] (Wellington, Ohio) 1867-188?, 1884-12-31

ALL manual labor may be di-
vided into rude, dexterous and
skilled labor. The first requires
only, or mainly, the strength or
patience Of the stupid plodder.
The second requires nice finish
and celerity of execution ; but the
work is all done by "rule of
thumb" that is, in ignorance of
principles. Subdivision of labor
is especially favorable to the pro.
duction of dexterous workmen.
The third requires both dexterity
and a knowledge of underlying
principles. 1t is theory and prac-
tice united, and it enables the
workman to adapt himself to new
conditions, and always to do the
best thing in an emergency-to
improve old methods of work or
devise new ones. 1t may be said,
in general, that, while the rude
laborer earns one dollar, the dex-
ferrous laborer will earn two dol
lars, the skilled laborer three
dollars ; all working with their
hands. In some varieties Of labor
the difference is much greater than
this. For the rude laborer there
is no hope of promotion, for the
dexterous laborer the prospect is
limited but the skilled laborer,
master Of his business in theory
and practice, may count surely
upon advancement. In dull times
the skilled laborer is the last to be
discharged yet he is the one who
has savings to rely upon-the one
who can most readily adapt him
self to a new occupation. [Stet-
son, Technical Education.

Avoid Waste.

Every man in workshop ought
to constitute himself the guardian
of his employers property, and
not only should he avoid waste
himself, but, as far as practicable,
he should discourage it in others.
If this were done, millions of dol
lars would be saved to the country,
a much larger percentage of profits
would go into the pockets Of the
employers, manufacturers would
be enriched, and, in the end, the
workman would be proportionate-
ly benefited. Strange that these
simple facts should have so little
weight, but so it is. Waste by
another is cruel to the man who
has to pay it does not, cannot
benefit the person guilty of it, and
it is dead loss to the nation !;
and every scrap of material so
destroyed makes the product more
costly, and consequently dearer.
In the interest of workmen, it is
important that these facts be borne
in mind. Wages bear a relative
proportion to the cost of raw ma
terials, and both combined deter
mine the price of commodities (;
the cheapness of the latter aug
ments their sale, increases their
production, enhances the demand
for labor, and tends to keep up
wages. If, therefore, an obvious
duty is neglected or carelessly
performed, the men mainly re-
sponsible ultimately suffer and
that suffering will be in exact
ratio to the cause which produced
it.-[Printer and Lithographer.

The Functions Of the Newspaper.

The newspaper is, first of all, q
business enterprise. Publishers
make newspapers to sell, just as
hatters make hats or shoemakers
make shoes. The newspaper is
merchandise made to suit the mar
ket. Those buy it who wish it,
and the buyers take their choice
Of the wares offered. Without
this commercial value publication
could not be sustained, and it
would be as unwise as unjust not
to take this fact into account.
Newspaper makers, like other
manufacturers, must consult pop
ular tastes and market demand.
These are the personal and pri-
vate aspects Of the newspaper, and
SO far as these are concerned it is
the private property and business
affair of its publisher. But to
count the newspaper merely as a
business enterprise, and to reckon
with it only as such, would insult
the public intelligence as much as
it would trife with public interests
and rights. 1t assumes public
functions and responsibilities
which none but a public teacher
can hold. We cannot absolve
men from the duties attached to
positions which they voluntarily

A Word With the Boys.

y
that they will become honored and
respected members of society, no
matter what the nature of their
calling or financial position. 1t
should be the aim Of every son to
follow the counsels Of his parent,
SO that these aims may be realized;
and it is to the boy of to-day, the
adult of the future, we have
word to say.
Young man, your future de-
pends in a great measure on your
own conduct and exertions. Re-
member, there is no royal road to
learning. If you commence life
Alright, with laudable desire to
learn and excel, to improve your
leisure and avail yourself of every
advantage offered, the chances are
the goal of your ambition, if with
in the bounds of reason, will be
reached. If, on the contrary, you
prefer to become the teacher in
stead Of the scholar think it man
ly to insult your superior in years
and experience /; affect . bravado
where docility is requisite ; refuse
the advise of those who advise for
your own benefit, it is safe to infer
that you will become a recruit in
the grand army which carries
failure on its banners, and as
you have sowed to the wind you
will assuredly reap to the whirl-
wind. The great trouble with the
rising generation is, that they
want to be men before they are
well developed boys know, or
rather think they know, all that
can be taught, and that it is sheer
waste Of time to commence at the
first round Of the ladder.
Let us take two boys, for exam
pie, entering the race of life to-
gether. One is attentive to bust
ness, puts his mind upon his
work, is anxious to learn, realizes
that civility costs nothing, avoids
slang, is courteous and obliging to
his superiors, and in general
makes his presence and compan-
ionship n pleasure. The other
acts as though it is smart to be

our advise to-day. You certainly
will not do SO when regrets are too

not be recalled and when you
realize to your sorrow that what
you now term the good luck" of
those more fortunate was the re-
suit Of following the same line of
policy which we have laid down
and which you affected to despise.
