Practice of Veterinary Dentistry.

Veterinary dentistry is new speciality created in the practice, and some yer, inter- esting operations in this branch of the pro- fession have been performed. A case that illustrates this particularly well was had at the American Veterinary college not long ago. It was the removal of the third molar tooth; the patient was brown gelding. The first sign of trouble was discharge from the right nostril After several weeks, this not ceasing, the owner sent the horse to the country for a run at grass. Here the animal remained, doing well, as the owner supposed, until word was received from the owner of the pasture stating that the services of two practitioners had been had and that there was question in dispute between them as to the nature of the animals disease. One maintained that the horse was affected with glanders and ought to be killed, while the other contended ittwas not
 Immediately after this the horse was sent back to the city and taken to the hospital for examination. A large swelling was found on the right side of the face, involving the nasal bone. The animal roared when moved, respiration being performed with much diff culty. Placing his hand in tho mouth, the surgeon found that the third molar tooth of the upper jaw was decayed and the cavity partly filled with food. To prepare the horse for the operation of having the tooth pulled, a system of dieting was first begun. When all was ready the horse was thrown down and put under the influence of chloral, then the diseased tooth was taken out by removal in two pieces. As @ part of the operation the bulging nasal bone was tre- phined. Daily treatment followed, the tooth cavity being kept as clean possible by washing out with water the foreign matter that daily collected. Respiration was per formed with ease after the operation, and at the end of the fourth week the horse was discharged from the hospital cured.-New York Mail and Express.

Reading in Rail Cars.

Reading while riding in rail cars or in omnibuses is to be avoided. The raptd shaking, trembling or oscillating motion of the cars makes it very difficult to keep the eyes fixed upon the words, and is very tire uted the failure of their eyes to the daily the city. Children should be cautioned against reading with the head inclined forward. The stopping position encourages @ rush of blood to the head, and conse- quently the eyes become congested and the foundations for nearsightedness are laid Professor David Webster, M. D.

THE case of General Sheridan favors the theory that very few, if any, of the men who bore the strain and responsibilities of prominent parts in the great war have failed to suffer some great injury from it. Sheridan has seemed the picture of health and tireless energy, and there is little doubt that the supreme stress of some critical moment, like the turning of the tide at Winchester, laid the foundation for the disease that now lays him low. There are but few of the men prominent in our field operations now surviving, and most of the dead have passed away with comparative suddenness from illness that could be dis tinctly traced to the hard work and great settlements of the war. Tough old Gen. eral Sherman seems to be the most notable of the few exceptions that prove the rule.

succeed Hon. B. Hermann as Oregon's
Congressman. We have only 20 say,
there can be no comparison between
the two men, only contrast. Mr..
Hermann's ability is positive and
