A DESIRABLE DRUG.
The Precious Elixir Of Life Discovered b
an Australian Doctor.

The Precious Elixir Of Life Discovered by
an Australian Doctor.
An Australian doctor ammo ,nces that
he has found a real elixir of life. 1t is
nothing more nor less than certain
drug which, taken as a sirup, acts in a
most wonderful way upon the temper
and disposition of the patient, curing
him of sulkiness, jealousy, stinginess in
money matters and every thing that
may have rendered him disagreeable
person to have aught to do with.
It is said that q little boy who was
given to pulling his sisters hair, putting
her wax dolls before the fire, and max
ing the cats life misery to her, was
found, after q single bottle had been
taken. to have developed the tenderest
regard for both girls and dumb animals.
Two doses cured the cook of an ex-
csedingly bad temper, while the head of
this particular household, who was
noted for being rather ''close" with his
money, became as generous as heart
could wish. Some drops were secretly
administered to him by his family, and
he soon commenced to suggest Of his
own accord that his wife's bonnet and
gown were getting shabby, that his
daughter needed new things, and that
the boys should have more pocket
money. We live in hopes of hearing
something more of this wonderful drug,
but we do not like to make too sure

FILLING A TOOTH.

FILLING A TOOTH.
Contrast Between Old-Time Methods and
Those Employed To-day.
when an old-time dentist began to
prepare tooth for filing" said dent
ist to q reporter, "he began by labori-
ously removing the decay from the cav
ity in the tooth with a hand-drill-a
sort of cup-shaped gouge. Agreat deal
of difficulty was experienced in keeping
the tooth dry, as the least moisture in
the cavity would prevent the filing from
packing. To overcome this the patients
head was thrown back until his face was
horizontal, and napkin was constantly
employed to wipe off the tooth. If the
nerve was exposed it was killed with q
red-hot wire, a proceeding, can assure
you, that in the observation-disclosures
days caused the patient to screech with
great vigor. When the hole had been
properly drilled out-two hours work,
at least-the filling was put in and
packed into place by what was known
as hand pressure simply pressing the
gold in with steel needle. Later on the
hand mallet came into vogue. The
filling was hammered into place with
steel prod and q metal mallet, q
process requiring two operators-onet to
hold the mouth open and direct the
prod, while the other gave the mallet
strokes. 1t was not calculated to make
man particularly happy, especially if
the nerve had been improperly treated.
''After the hand mallet came the au-
tomato plugger. and with it most in
genious idea, called the rubber dam. >
That is simply sheet of thin rubber,
into which holes are punched by an in
strument so adjusted that the hole can
be of any required size. The dam is
placed over the tooth, first being Sc
cured behind the head with clamps,
and not particle of spittle can inter-
fere with the operation. To make this
doubly sure silken ligature is tied
around the tooth, and, the patient be-
ing provided with saliva ejector, the
operator is free to work without him
drance or delay. look upon the rub
ber dam as invaluable.

strokes whose force can be regulated at

the work can be done.
''The preparatory process is equally
speedy. A four-cell battery furnishes
power to revolving rod. which turns
two thousand times minute. The end
of the rod is hollow, and into it is fitted
drill which the operator selects from
large collection as best suited for the
size and depth of the cavity. To such
state of perfection has this been
brought that it is possible to drill all
around the nerve, then put cap over it,
and over the cap the filing. When the
toorh-structure shows that the nerve
should be destroyed il is dev . ized
by painless process. This, however,
is not often necessary. After the filling
