What Ingenuity Does.

Every one has heard, l suppose, Of
Evans, the American dentist, who chr.
ries the city Of Paris in his coat pocket.
He was the Emperor's protege, and he
has given European royalty more pain,
for cash, than any man in the world.
He operates in dress suit, drives 81.
perb horses, and lives in wonderful
mansion that was given to him by Ma
poleon III. Well, there is his hike in
New York just now. Twas riding through
the Park the other forenoon, and my at
tention was called to a big, handsome
man sitting with self-possession which
did him credit in one Of those most afro.
cious vehicles, q dog-cart. "That, said
my companion, "is Richmond, the new
dentist"
"Who is he p naturally inquired.
"He came here from California some
two or three years ago, with some con.
trivance for putting artificial teeth upon
natural roots, so that nothing could re-
move them without hauling out the whole
tooth. 1t is called the Richmond crown
setting, believe. The crack dentists
Of the city went wild over 1t, but he had
patented the whole thing, and had them
where they couldn't move. He came
here with only little money and no
practice. Now he employs seven skilled
workmen, has offices that are simply
palatial, and is enabled to support the
style you saw Just now. He is, ina word,
q sensation, and will make 800, 900 in q
year. That shows what little ingenu-
ity will do for man."
It did. But too much ingenuity isn't
always as successful. When l was a lad,
knew an old fellow that was always In
venting something. r last and great-
est work in this line was the concoction
Of q wonderful explosive substance. He
completed his work, and demonstrated
its power one afternoon, when sat on
the wall that separated our yard from his
orchard, viewing his apple trees with
speculation in my eyes. I saw one sec
ton Of his house rise few yards in the
air, and come down with crash. l also
saw where enough Of him fell to hold an
inquest on-and / have never invented
30 much as clothes-pin. philadelphia

other flower has been plucked from
the sunny home; another breach

jewel stolen from the treasury OF

of manhood, with life's plans and
. purposes, his heart nerved with
noble endeavor for his own and his
fathers good, how hard to sink IN
helpless weakness into the grave
lie was ever hopeful and generous,
his soul painted after communion
with the great and good, and reached
forth with earnest struggle for the
guerlon In The distance. But God,
saw fit in His Infinite love and wis
dom to call him home while young

remember him IN the school-room

manly little fellow, and always a

1 was born Feb. Goth, and Gen, Geo.
Washington was born Feb. 22nd. II
is a strange coincidence that two as
great men should be born so close to-
gether. Again it is not only strange
but passing strange, that Washington
should be elected President of

Neither mental nor physical labor
can be accomplished satisfactorily
unless the system is in order. When
you feel tired, languid, wearied with
out exertion, the mind slow to act,
and requiring great mental effort,
you can rest assured that your Liver is
not acting properly, and that nature
requires assistance to help throw of
impurities. There is no remedy that
will accomplish this so mildly and
yet effectually as Prickly Ash Bitters,
A trial will satisfy you of its merits,

y Sheep IntOXicant.

In reference to the statement pub
lished elsewhere in regard to two hun
dred bucks being poisoned in eastern
Oregon, II gentleman who has extern
sive interests in that section and who
has spent several years on the sheep
ranges there gives the following infor-
mation: There is a low weed growing
on certain ranges which, when eaten
by the sheep in the fall, proves fatal.
The sheep run on these ranges in the
spring without damage. Then they
are driven to the mountains for the
summer, and when they come back on
the range in the fall this poison weed
is ripe and the seeds have fallen on
the ground. The sheep feed on the
weed and probably the seeds. Pres
emily their ears droop, they froth at
the mouth, and their brain is affected.
After standing for awhile in a dazed
condition they start off in any direc-
ton. they happen to be headed, and
keep going till they walk over a cliff
or into a gully or fall dead. They can
not be turned or stopped, but walk of
a bluff as ~composedly as if it was level
ground. So far as known there is no
cure for sheep which have eaten this
weed. Cattle and horses are not pois-
oned by i~t-iorttamd ~Oregonian.
