HAS A GOOD SUNDAY.

' Es Discharge of Pus Which Brings Him l Relief.
 BERLIN, May 6.-The Emperor was fever ish during last night and was frequently dis | turbed by an increased discharge of pus. | His temperature rose to nearly 39 c. By I morning it had fallen to 27.9, but the Elm peror felt exhausted and the doctors advised
 him not to leave the bed. To-day the pa- tient has. had a quiet day. His face has, 8 fairly healthy color and his eyes are bright. His breathing, however, is difficult and rapid. The Emperor is always pleased when he makes himself understood by signs and whispers. He finds writing irksome. The Empress has recovered from her attack of neuralgia. To-day she drove to Berlin to visit Empress Augusta.
 Another abscess has broken in the Ems peror's throat.
 The Emperor to-day received the Grown Prince, Count von Winterfeld, Count Eulen- berg and others. The Emperor has written to the Berlin Historical society saying he in tends to remain patron of that and other societies.
 Bismarck Confident of Peace.
 BERLIN, May 6.-It is stated that Prince Bismarck expressed to Mir. Carl Sehurz his positive conviction that the peace of Europe would be maintained. The chancellor said he thought the reinstatement of General Bogandovich by the Russian government af forded no ground for apprehension. He was confident that the Czar's words would prove more powerful than that of General Ignatieff and his partisans. With regard to France the chancellor said disturbance of the peace through any Boulsnger adventure was out of the question. He spoke with such emphasis that MT. Schurz gathered that Prince Bismarck desired that his views, which were so much at variance with those of the press, should be made known. MT. Schurz has gone to Hamburg. He will re- turn here in June. A Message From the Dead Monarch
 ST. PETERSBURG, May 6.-General von Schweinitz, the German ambassador here, has returned to the Czar the Russian decora- tions worn by the Emperor William. In ac- cordance with the latter's desire the am- bassador acknowledged the high distinction conferred upon the wearer. The Czar was greatly moved by this mark of the cordial att tachment of the dead monarch.

CARE OF THE TEETH.
Ordinary Precautions Which Everybody
Should Observe.

Should Observe.
Brush your teeth, and teach your
children to brush their teeth after every
meal with tepid water and aI,Oay5 Just
before retiring at might with good dem
thrice. If you could brush your teeth
but once day, you should do it the
last thing before going to bed, for the
constant movement of the tongue and
saliva against the teeth during the day
keep them partly cleansed, but at night
the muscles and tongue are at rest, and
the small particles of food that are float
ing about in the mouth or lodged be-.
tween the teeth unite with the stagnant
saliva, producing an acid that attacks
The tooth either at the neck or in one of
the irregular convolutions of the crown.
While too vigorous brushing is to be
deprecated, yet it is better to err in
overriding than not brushing thorough
ly enough. Every accessible surface of
the teeth should be thoroughly brushed
to remove any food that may be lodged
there. Do not rest content to brush
only the fronts of the teeth, but also
the inner surface and crowns; the upper
teeth should be brushed downward and
the lower teeth upward in order that
the bristles may pass between the teeth
and force out any particles of food
there; it also presses the gums against
the necks of the teeth. Always use
soft wooden toothpick after meals,
never pin or any metal one.
Never use any advertised or recon-
mended powders that you do not know
their entire constituents. Avoid all
powders that contain soap, charcoal,
cuttle-fsh bone or any oily or insoluble
substance for constant use. Do not use
any wash that is recommended for
whitening the teeth; it either does not
accomplish the result, or does it at the
expense of the enamel of the teeth. Any
dentifrice that has precipitated chalk
for its base is good, provided it con-
tains no acid. When you or your chill
dren take any of the solutions of iron,
or other strong medicines, whether
through a quill, as they should be, or
in any other manner, see that the teeth
are brushed Immediately afterward.
By observing these precautions and
visit to some good dentist every six
months, so that any disease or other
imperfection may be seen and corrected
before it gets any Roadway, you and
your children ought under ordinary
circumstances preserve your teeth till
| old age.--HOme KnoWLedQe.

Webster. Underhin & Nickerson." A re-

jewelry in their places. really supposed |
must have been suffering from some sort of
delusion. The following night, however, |
missed another fur coat, and other jewelry,
and the next morning they were in their
places again. For several weeks this went
on, and l was wearing myself out with per
plexity; at last, in dismay, spoke to nv
partners, and they agreed that we had
better put detective on the case. This we
did and we found out two DAYS ago that
Arthur Jones, the young man in charge
of the fur department, was in the habit
of frequenting fashionable hotels each
which he returned in the morning. This he
told us Thursday, when we arrived at the
store. We determined to watch Jones care
fully and surprise him that night with our
goods. That afternoon, however, a lady
called to buy sealskin cloak at the sight Of
Jones she tainted; she was taken home in a
very weak state, and told me that she had
been grossly deceived
1.-The lady was averse to discussing the
matter, but from what she said l should i'm
agine that she had lent him money. He left
while she was at the store and has not been
seen since. He is tall, slightly built and for

any thing to him, even if he were found.
He took nothing from the store; but feel it

SOCIAL VAMPIRES,

| Detective Agencies That Are Nothing
More Than Blackmaillng Concerns.
Something ought to be done to con-
troll these private detective agencies"
said police officer of rank to a re-
porter. They are q nuisance, and
work more harm than any one i'm
| agines. l don't refer to the straight
/ agencies, but these concerns that do all
| the dirty work are the ones l refer to.
Anybody can start detective agency,
and some of the men who work for
many of these in Chicago ought to be
in the penitentiary. Many private
detectives make their living by black
mail, and it is easy to see that they
have fine field to work in. Take for
instance, a case of q woman, or even a
man, who has some standing Some
one-it may be a husband or wife, or
even an outsider-puts detective on
the track of the one he wants to find
out about, and the victim is followed
everywhere. Suppose something is
found out--and there's nobody but has
a little dark spot that shouldn't be ex-
posed-and here's where the chance for
| blackmail comes in. The detective
makes his report and receives his pay,
but doesn't let the matter rest there.
He has hold on the one he'd been
shadowing, and when the proper time
comes he works the racket for what it's
worth. He wants loan after letting
| tho victim of yubot
knowledge he possesses, and nine to
one he gets it, The one affected knows
that he can't afford exposure and he is
willing to pay for secrecy. Mind you,
all private detectives don't work this
snap but many of them do.
81 know of young man who robbed
his employer. The latter knew some
thing was wrong, so he hired shad-
over. Proof against the young man
was complete, and when he was
confronted with it ne confessed
every thing. He begged not to be
exposed, and the employer consented
to his remaining, provided he made up
the shortage. This he did and after
wards regained his employers conf
dence. Then he married a fine girl
and was happy. The world smiled on
him and ne was getting along as nicely
as any one could wish when one day
he was called on by strange man,
who soon let him know that he was the
detective who had done the shadowing.
He didn't say that he would expose the
young man, but the latter knew what
the matter was and readily consented
to make a small loan. Instead of tell
ing his wife and employer about it he
struggled on, meeting demands made
on him, and finally took to drinking.
His employer discharged him, he went
lower and lower, and when he got clear
into the gutter his wife left him be-
cause he couldn't support her. The
other day, | see by the papers, she sued
for divorce, and she'll get it,"-Chi-

FAITH REWARDED.
Story of a Man Who Had Confidence In
His Mother-in Law.

Story of a Man Who Had Confidence In
His Mother-in- Law.
One of the ladies who have been for
some time prominent in Washington
society has Il husband who works in
one of the departments. How they
manage to scratch along on his little
salary and make the show the lady
does is explained by the fact that she
has wealthy mother, who sends her
an occasional remittance. Recently she
received package containing ribbons,
ocket-handkerchiefs, bonbons, ETC.,
nothing of much value. The daughter
felt hurt that her mothers present was
so Insignificant as compared with
former ones, and she began to shed
tears as the box was emptied of its
tribes. The servant was ordered to
take the debris and throw it away.
The husband has confidence in his
mother-in-law-a rare thing to have, to
be sure. He said, soothingly, to his
wife: my dear. will look carefully
through the paper and straw which
came in the box, perhaps we have over
looked something" lie did look care
fully and was rewarded by finding an
envelope with a neatly folded check for
81, 900 in it, together with an endearing
note to her children. The husband
was so overcome with joy at the find
that he could only say, God bless our
mother" Most sons-in-law vary that
expression. Y Graphic.
