Children Teeth.

Children's teeth arc often neglected by parents, who give the young mouths l.t- tie attention until decay and the childs complaints of toothache warn them of their duty. Even if they know there is d0cay going on, they dismiss the subject with the thought that they are only the first or temporary teeth, which will soon be replaced by the permanent ones.
 This is a great mistake. as the regular lty of the second set depends largely upon the healthy condition of the first, which should be retained in their places until the second set is ready to appear, when they will generally drop out or become loosened, and are easily removed.
 Much mischief is done by premature decay and the extraction of the tempo rary teeth. Many think that they should be removed to make room for the perma- nent teeth-a dangerous mistake, which should be avoided if after trouble would be prevented.
 One of the most beautiful provisions of nature in the human economy is that for the removal of the first teeth by ab- sorption of their roots to make room for the second to advance.
 Sometimes this absorption does not co on fast enough, and the second tooth is observed to be coming through before the first is loosened. In such case the dentist should be consulted, who. 1: he has made proper study of this frequent condition of things. will very readily correct it.-lDr. Gilbert.

WATERING THE MILK.
The Story of an Oriental PeddIer.

There was an Arab youth in Bombay who made a living by pedding milk. Like all Arab Moslems, he was abStelni- ous. frugal and very religious.
 He worked very hard. He got up before daybreak, said his long prayers, bought his milk, and I am sorry to say, he watered it. But he most re- ligiously abstained from watering 1t more than half.
 By dint of hard work and watering the milk he had saved 200 rupees, and he concluded to go back to his happy cillage in Arabia Felix, and buy little flock of goats and sheep, and live happy turing the rest of his life.
 He went on board of one of the native Arab crafts and sailed happily with 8 light heart for the port of Sana, in the Red Sea.
 I need hardly say that our Arab friend, Iben Hasid (for that was his aame) never parted from his bag of rupees. He would creep into an obscure corner of the little vessel, open the Oag and run the bright silver through ais hands, and feel so happy.
 Well, on board of that craft was one of those mischievous African monkeys, that are always an inevitable appenaage to an ArdD vessel.
 This monkey spied Iben Hasid out, and was seemingly boon companion to him. In fact, our friend Iben would show him the rupees and tell him Of his future plans, and keep the bright rupees running through his hands into the canvas tag.
 But the treacherous monkey was up to his tricks. He watched his opportunity. He snatched the bag of rupees suddenly ad ran up with it to the masthead, and there he initiated the usual pro- ceedings of Iben Hasid, by trying to run the rupees through his clumsy, . thick hands. A
 Of course, the rupees fell on the deck and in the water. Poor lben HasId scrambled for his rupees.
 When the monkey had emptied the bag, he flung the empiied bag at the Arabs head, and scampered, as usual, all over the vessel.
 The poor Arab, after recovering the bag, put the remaining rupees into it, and returned to his obscure corner of the ship and began-to count them.
 Alas! there were only 100 rupees left. But Iben Hasid was a devout and good Moslem, and he thus exclaimed:
 "Allah Thou art just and righteous and MohaInmed Is thy prophet. l have saved POO rupees by selling milk, half of which was water. If l had not watered. milk, could certainly not have saved more than 100 rupees.
 !" Therefore thy judgment is right. The rupees that made by water have now gone back to the water, and the 100 rupees made by the milk re- main. Therefore let me again say, Allah. il Allah. and Mohammed ia his prophet" @

Marriage.

bill has been introduced into the Now York Legislature to prohibit the marriage of girls under 16 and boys under IS years old.
 As rule marriage should be de- ferred until the man and woman are matured, but early marriages are by no means ranked among the leading sins against society. More even can be said in favor of early marriages than can be said in favor of deferring that event indefinitely. l..
 The idea that the young woman must wait until the young man has a competence or a fortune, and they must begin life with as much as their fathers or mothers accumulated during all their years, is 8 great mistake.
 Marry for love and work for riches Is a good motto.-[ Chicago Inter-Ocean.

Housekeeping in Japan.

Fears of Dynamite in London.

LONDON, Jan. 23.-The police au-
thorities are again taking extraordinary
precautions to guard against the posi-
bility of dynamite outrages. The
guards of the principal public buildings
were doubled to-day, and there are
indications of unusual police vigilance
in every quarter. 1t is asserted that
this activity on the part of the police is
occasioned by the fact that the authori
ties have become cognizant of threats
of violence uttered in consequence OF
the unsatisfactory character of that por.
ton Of the Queens speech referring to
the Irish question. 1t is noted also
that to-day is the anniversary of the
explosions at Westminster Hall and the

sion has been felt lest the day should
be signalized by the renewal of out

THE Congo country is opening up In
one sense and is not opening up in an
other. Much has been said of late,
outside of official reports, however,
about the wonderful fertility of the
Congo country; but official investiga-
ton seems to show that the country is
at present practically unworkable.
The last reliable report comes from
Lieutenant Taunt of the U. S. Navy,
who will report TO congress that the
lower Congo county is "arid, unhealthy
and unproductive," but that the por-
ton lying above Stanley Pool has fine
