taken from common instances of every dav
life and his effusions are full of lively good
humor that never grows coarse or low; and
like all true humorists, he brings out in
strong light many of the evils and absurd
tiles of weak. erring humanity. But it
must be rather trying, at times, to get the
rhyme whipped into lines, and the words
chopped into rhythmical measures so that
the voice may flow in the reading like the
juice foweth from the sorghum mill; but he
does it, does it on time, and does it we'll:

in the issue of Nov. 9. and essays to
strengthen his disputed statement that "a
convict naturally hates himself and only
thinks of getting event. AS he only re- as
serts his former statements we need but
stick to what we said before, that his opin-
ion respecting convicts as a class is mis-
taken one. And as he evidently only took
the matter up on account of the opportunity
it afforded him to give vent to personal feel
ings against the states administration, its
prison management in general and this i'll
stitutiOn in particular. we cannot consist
emily follow the discussion any farther; for,
as he properly says, THE MIRROR only ex-
lists by the sufferance of the administration.
We would not be permitted nor would it be
proper for us to take sides for or against
the methods of our state boards of prison
managers, and especially. not in the spirit
of the St. Cloud writer. AS a citizen of
the state he has perfect right to criticise
the administration and to discuss such mat
tiers in whatever spirit he may think proper,
and THE MIRROR will not presume to
criticise his utterances; but when he takes
the personal characteristics of the convict
as the subject for discussion, we claim the
right of self-defense and ask no quarter on
account of our circumstances. And we will
say for the enlightenment of the gentleman
that we will be allowed full expression
within the bounds of decency.

The Prison Congress, soon to meet in
Nashville. is to discuss some important
questions for the social veal. The Grim.
inal population is increasing at all abnor-
NAL rate. So is the dependent contingent.
The most exact study of the whole subject
is imperative. 1t is good sign to note the
attention now paid to the reform OF GRIM
inals. Many are driven to vice by want;
many are tempted strongly. and are too
weak to resist; many in the great cities
have never been trained to industry. and
have had no fair chance for a decent life
many are repulsed by society when they try
to redeem their regulations; some are vi
cieus. and resist all efforts to regain them
for worthy living. Some can be reformed.
and ought to be. Some cannot be touched
by any living power. There are refOrmers
whe insist that the state has no right to i'm
prison. except to reform. but that is tenn
porary oscillation of the pendulum to the
other extreme. If Satan were incarnate.
Oh that theory, the state could not touch
him for any crime. A fair aim which en-
braces all the facts will make the peniten-
tiary place to develop penitence, but it
will ensure the protection of society in
either case, without revenge. Northwest

What is there in politics that ruins men?
Lester B. Faulkner. graduate of Yale. a
brave Union soldier during the war, and
for dozen years past conspicuous as
Democratic leader in this State. has just
been sentenced at Buffalo to prison for
seven years for having signed false report
of the Danville National Bank, which COL
lapsed about two years ago. General
Faulkner has been Chairman of the Demo-
cratic State Central Committee, presiding
officer of Democratic State Conventions,
and was one of the closest friends of the
late Samuel j. Tilden. A man of educa-
ton and experience in public life, lawyer
with good practice, 1t is indeed sad that
such misfortune should overtake him.

All who are acquainted with the forests
have seen grand mOnarchs of the woods
that looked to be solid and strong enough
to defy the fury of the tornado and would
only bow down when the AK had severed
their last fiber. yet when the woodsman
struck his ak into their trunk he found it
only shell. and few blows brought them
to the earth with crash. They were rot
ten at heart. How many men we see that
may be compared to such a tree-hand-
some. winning fellows that look the en-
bodiment,of all that goes to make up per-
feet manhood, yet at the first stroke of the
AK of adversely they fall, crushing the hearts
and hopes of all those who have gathered
about them. They are mere ornaments,
good only for shades in the summertime of
life-they are rotten at heart. When they
are prone upon the ground men look upon
them as the woOdsman does upon the fallen
tree, and say, what pity-their prospects
were so bright-they MIGHT HAVE BEEN
so useful.

Care of the Teeth.

An experienced dentist of this city
said to ME the other day: 1.-The best
dentists rarely advise the extraction OF
tooth. In my practice the number
of teeth lost because of decay would
not average three year. Of course,
if child inherits the small jaw OF the
mother and the large teeth OF the
father one or more teeth must often
be extracted to make room for the
regulation of the remainder a pa
tient should not lose tooth or a part
OF tooth if it can possibly be avoided.
If you have only root left, build upon
that root.
But" my intelligent informant
went on to say, great care should be
exercised in the matter OF artificial
crowns, for they should always be the
last resort. Oftcntimcs dentist with
a specially will cut away good, sound
tooth so rs to make anchorage for the
artificial crown. The good tooth which
has been cut down will decay, and
the crown will be at best but tempo
rary; then, if the latter is to he re-
stored, more cutting of the good tooth
again becomes necessary. Sometimes
a space is caused by the absence OF one
or more teeth, and on each side OF the
space there may be sound tooth:
Some dentists, blacksmiths they should
be called, will cut away a part OF each
tooth in order to anchor crowns, to
which gold fixture bridging the space
is secured. Of course, to put crown
of gold or porcelain on a root is a very
proper thing to do.-Epoch.
