SAD havoc is created among the tenants
of the mouth by allowing impurities to col
lect upon their surface or in their inter-
stces. SOZODONT removes every vestige
of tartar from the teeth and renders their
premature decay impossible. 1t not only
imparts to them Wilderness and vigor, but
communicates hardness and rosiness to the
gums. The breath acquires a most accept
able fragrance from its use; il is purely
botanic liquid, and II may be- relied on to
accomplish its identifying effects without
injuring the enamel like gritty tooth paste

eight; attended school, about thirty.
We have had day or two of warm weather,
but not warm enough to soften the crust
under the last snow, and 1t would bear a
mans weight in places in the middle of the
day yet. But very few have yet COM
menced to make sugar. Snow Is very deep
and the roads almost impossible in some
places. The stage road from West to East
Corinth has been sadly neglected and the
mail is very irregular. Last Wednesday
evening the driver was obliged to leave his
team in the snow and go some half mile
for help. delaying the mail about two hours.
But no matter, as long as no one complains.
No doubt one man with shovel could, in
the time the mail was delayed, have made
it passable at that place.

SUNDAYS LIE.
A. Harmless Blow Aimed by the
Tribune at a Policeman.

The principal lie published in sun
days issue of the Tribune was as fol
lows:
1.-TWO young boys, apparently about
II or Is years of age, came to the 1ri-
b,tne Office near midnight last night and
made the following statement. One of
them had his head tied up. and he was
evidently suffering from the effects of
recent blows, the back of his head being
cut and swollen. Their account of the
affair is briefly as follows: At about 10
o'clock last night, as they were going
home from the skating rink with two
girls who live in the Eleventh Ward,
Policeman Malin accosted them, after
having followed them some distance,
and deliberately struck one of the boys
three blows on the head with his fist, at
the same time calling him an opprobri-
Gus name. He was considerably stun
ned, and the party were frightened by
the attack, not knowing the cause or
motive which induced the policeman TO
assault their companion The boy who
was hurt will probably make COM
plant before q. S. Commissioner on
Monday"
Officer Malin was struck dumb on
reading the above He has not the
slightest knowledge of what the matter
refers to, and nothing of the affair was
known at police headquar ters.
