A DENTISTS NEW AnHsTHETlc.
A Reporter Tells the Story of Its Effects
instantaneous Recovery.

Some time ago a little baldheaded
dentist, who lives in Brooklyn, sent invi-
tations to the eminent doctors In this city
and Philadelphia, asking them to be pres
ent at a series OF experiments that he pro-
posed making with a new angsthetic that
he had discovered. He explained that his
compound was something entirely I'M
known hitherto, and the result of five
years work.
He wound up by saying that his dis
cover produced natural sleep almost
instantaneously, and the patients recov-
cred of their own accord invigorated and
refreshed. He hobbled into ii side room
and soon appeared with a decrepit old
woman. He promised to remove all the
decayed stumps from her mouth II she
allowed him to use his angsthetic in the
operation. He saturated a napkin with n
substance that looked like water and
emitted n pleasant odor. For an instant
he held 1t over the old lady's nose, telling
her to breathe freely, and in thirty sec
onds she was unconscious. He allowed
the napkin to remain, and for over two
minutes he worked, extracting sixteen
teeth. The patient never moved, N to
all appearances she did not feel the pain
attending the operation. On removing
the napkin almost Immediately, she re-
NiNeu anu stepped out Oh tne cnalr rs
fresh and hearty as she got into it.
She said that she had a idea Of
what was going on while under the infiu-
ence of the anmsthetic, but could not
move hand or foot. She said she knew
that the dentist was pulling her teeth out,
but felt no pain
Eight persons were made and kept un-
conscious from a half to two and a half
minutes. In one case the napkin was al
lowed to remain for six minutes. The pa
tients all told stories similar to the old
lady's and went away in good spirits. The
reporter was the last subject, and these in
brief were the sensations he experienced:
From the m the napkin was placed
over his face n feeling OF Inconsistencies
came over him, and at the end Of the third
free inspiration everything became blank.
His arms hung at his side, and he could
feel that they were there, but they were
beyond the voluntary control of the will;
a sense OF dreamy languor followed, aud,
as II on the wings OF n fleet bird, he was
borne through the air high above the
earth. The sensation was altogether
pleasant. Then the scene changed, and
his skull tingled, u million hammers no
bigger than n fine needle began pounding
all ut once. They shattered into frag-
ments In an instant, the napkin was re-
moved and all was over. Recovery was
instantaneous, and all effect was gone.
The time taken by one Of the physicians
was one and three-quarter minutes.-New

My life's like a stroll upon the beach
As near the oceans edge as / can go;
My tardy steps its waves sometimes DER
reach.
Sometimes l stay to let them overflow.
My sole employment it's and scrupulous
care
To place my gain beyond the reach of
tides
Each smoother pebble and each stone more
rare
Which Ocean kindly to my hand con-
ides.
| have but few companions on the shore;
They scorn the strand who sail upon the
sea;
Yet oft think the ocean they've sailed DER
Is deeper known upon the strand to me.
The middle sea contains no crimson dulse,
Its deeper waves cast up no pearls to
view;
Along the shore my hand is on its pulse,
And converse with many a shipwrecked
crew. Henry Thoreau.
Havana's MILK Wagon and Fruit Stand.
To one who has never been in Spain the
street sights are novel and often astound-
ing. After breakfast / took n walk down
the Prado. The first sight was the Cuban
milk wagon-not n wagon at all, but "A
mule, on whose back was a pillion two
feet high. built up of straw and leather,
on the top n boy, and hanging on all sides
of him the numerous milk cans. l saw
another method of distributing milk. The
COW with a calf is driven to the entrance of
the house, and MIXED the amount wanted.
This method is for children and invalids.
The calves have on n wire muzzle.
Next | came upon a fruit stand, and
none in the north can compare with them,
for the majority of Cuban fruits are SO
perishablc when ripe that they can not be
conveyed OIL the island. The pineapple,
which we never get ripe, is here like a
massive ruby, whose interior you can eat
with n spoon. In this condition it is the
queen of all fruits. The magno, looking
something like n kidney-shaped pear,
off and around n stone filling three quar-
ters its interior is the yellow pulp, re-
minding one of the pineapple and the
peach. The sapodilla, a br~own-skinned,
round fruit, the size of a peach, and tast-
ing like a very, very insipid pear. The

melon, the interior n vivid flesh color

ons, plantains, bananas, and many others

my patients. Here l got the fruit, like a

time this delicious drink in its natural
