DR.. Miller the painless dentist, has
made arrangements for the return of
DR.. Ramsey, the gentleman who came
with him some eight months ago.
The present intentions are to run the
largest and cheapest dental office In the
territory. An engine will be put in to
run machinery electric light TO work
by evenings, 30 that parties whose duties
prevent them from coming during the
day can have their teeth filled st night
without loss Of time. One of the firms
will make professional visits to all
towns within a radius OF rs miles, in
cluding Mitchell and Sioux Falls.
An electric apparatus will be in
troduced by which teeth can be ex-
tracted without pain.
This is the latest wonder and guaran-
teed q success. Things have changed
somewhat since DIR. Miller came &c
Yankton.
At that time there were two resident
dentist both highly incensed that such
a monstrosity, as q travelling dentlst
should have the nerve to make his APP
pearanoe among them.
The reception said dentist received wes
of such a cordial nature that he
concluded to remain for good, inst to
see if predictions would be fulfilled.
/ at present there is but one other
dentist in the city and if advertisements
tell a truthful tale he is doing some
travelling himself, presumably for his
health, just extracting q few teeth by
way of diversion, you know.
Our staying qualities have all the
modern attachments and we believe in
competition. Teeth 800 per set.

The Gift of Healing,

The gift of healing scrofIla and similar
diseases, claimed for centuries by our
kings, lasted, as we know, to the age of
Queen Anne, and the service used on the
occasion can be read in the Common
Prayer Book printed in her reign. That
very sacred king, Charles II-if we may
believe an eye witness, one of his own
surgeons-performed many hundreds of
cures, and is said to have touched in
twenty-one years upward of $4,000 suf-
ferers. God give you better health and
more sense" was the benediction of Will
lam III over the only person he could be
persuaded to touch. The writer observes
that though the belief in the virtue of the
royal touch was silly superstition, it
was not, as Macaulay terms it, an i'm
posture, since patients were often cured
by the impression produced on the nervous
system, the excitement caused by the
royal touch in cases of scrofula causing a
freer flow of blood to the part affected.
The remedies given by q physician in
former days appeared to be often founded
on conjecture, and were sometimes worse
than the disease. Cardan, man of great
genius, and as much renowned for mathe-
mates as for medical skill, wrote a pre-
scription composed Of pearls, gems and
the bone of unicorn, and when troubled
with sleeplessness he relates that he ap-
piled bears grease to seventeen places on
the body. Cardan, who, by the way, was
summoned in the last illness of Edward
VI, was very superstitious His son had
been executed for poisoning his wife, and
the father, in dream, heard voice tell
ing him TO put into his mouth the emerald
he wore round his neck, and that would
enable him to forget his son. He did so,
he says, with such good results that he
was always oppressed when he could not
have the stone between his lips.-The

The best way to ventilate room that
know Of is to put board, long enough to
fit exactly in the window frame, and
about six inches high, under the lower
sash. If you remember the construction
Of window sashes you will know that this
consequent raising of the lower one will
leave spaces between the glass and the
woodwork, through which fresh air can
obtain gradual entrance into the room.
Its course is made somewhat tortuous
and all draught thereby prevented
When il reaches the inside it has an up
ward direction, too, and is not likely to
come in contact with tender craniums.
1t is important, in using this kind of ven-
tilation, that the board fit accurately
under the window, 80 that no little spaces
be left for the air to blow through.

How They Marry In India.

At Trichur, in the East Indies, a town
inhabited chiefly by Nairs, the land hold
ing class of the coast, divorce seems to be
as simple as marriage is easy. The Nair
lady is a very independent person Some
one offers cloth; that is the proposal II
she accepts it, that is the marriage II
she gets tired of her husband she gets rid
of him and takes up with another and Is
not held to have behaved disgracefully in
so doing. To give cloth as present is
a very common thing in India BY cloth
is meant the garment worn by women in
the east, and it may be very plain and
cheap or very rich and costly But here,
whatever kind Of cloth it be, to give one
is very significant, as distinguished visi.
tor TO Trichur found when he offered one
to Nair lady in whose house he had re.
ceived some civility. Whatever opinion
may be held from moral point of view
Of these marriage relations, they result In
manly males and for the most part comely
and very often beautiful females. Pail

sign of the Tom Cat-The Hunchback
Offenbach's Evil Eye.
1t is singular, in fact, to note how
Partisan actresses are attracted-as moths
round fame that will SINCE them-by
the belief in signs and warnings and
omens. Nine. Favart, societaire at the
Theatre Franchise, asserts that when cat,
and especially black tom cat, comes of
its own accord, with tail erect, purring
round the stage, it is good sign. Theo,
who "sings so delightfully."- with her
shoulders, as the Nestors of theatrical
criticism aver, believes that it is very un-
lucky to catch sight of a hunchback and
not touch his hump. The pretty actress
will, in fact, go out of her way and dodge
one mile to get chance to do so as IL
by accident and without being seen.
Croizette, who retired from the stage Of
the Coincide Franchise on pension and
married rich banker, attributes her sue
cess in life to the fact that one day she
picked up horseshoe.
Some cantatrices are also highly super
stitious. Among those who belong more
or less to the Paris stage I may instance
Adelina Patti. Adelina Maria Clorinda
Patti-and indeed the whole musical tribe
of the Strakosch and Patti brood
strongly believe in the jettatore, or ''evil
eye" Patti will not sing where there is
a cross eyed conductor, just as the blonde
Sarah will not play by the side of an
actor whose organ of vision is askew; and.
as those who like Patti, have been happy
and successful are more liable to this
fascination, the prima donna never fails
to wear a bracelet or necklace of precious
stones-even shells and corals will do--to
counteract the malignant influence which
darts from the eyeballs Of certain envious
and angry persons. She asserts that
Offenbach, who possessed the evil eye,
brought i'll luck with him wherever he
went; that he passed through the Rue
Lepeletier the night the old opera house
was destroyed by fire, when poor Emma
Livry was burned alive in the only ballet
Offenbach ever had represented at the
opera, and chat Nine. Berthelier died
while playing in the "Vie Parisienne,"
for which he wrote the score.
have also been told that Paola Marie,
OF the Opera Comique, and her sister
Call Marie, both wear amulet rings TO
avert the snake like fascination which is
currently attributed to Count Gabrielle,
the well known boulevarder.
Zulma Bouffar once told me that she
never would think of washing her hands
as 1t often happens behind the scenes TO
many Of the music hall singers-in the
water used by another person, not that
she considered the act as so very unclean,
but rather because she knew that the
parties were bound to quarrel soon after,
unless one Of the two spat in the basin!

A London Crowd.

There is a hooking, bitter laugh for the
most venerated institutions, and the
many tongued voice has an acrid, cynic
accent. The steady, respectable element
indeed holds its tongue and keeps an anx-
ious watch over its pockets; and it Is the
looser, wilder members of the crowd who
are seen and heard the most. But how
numerous these last, how threatening,
and how quickly increasing and gather.
ing strength, it only needs an occasional
day in the streets to realize.
And the most discouraging part of the
business is the immense contingent of
idle youths, most of whom have passed
under what ought 70 have been the civil
izing effects of education in the board
schools, but who certainly show to no
greater advantage than the roughs and
loafers of a former era. Indeed, the
clamorous voices of the swarms Of idle or
half idle youth who viii earn no daily
bread. nor even the pinch Of salt that
