Mr.. David E. Stone, of The New York
Journal of Commerce, has traced the origin OF
the saying, Pouring oil on the troubled
waters" and has given bis results as follows:
1.-THE phrase, SO far as we can trace 1t, first
occurs in Bede's Ecclesiastical History"
book 8, chapter 15, written in Latin more
than LOO years ago from TIC to I'll A. D.).l
The venerable Bede is speaking of Bishop AN
den, who was permitted to work miracles. a
priest called Vita Utta) was sent into KENT
to fetch Eanfede, King Edwines daughters
who WAS to be married to King Oswirra. He
was to go by land, but to return bY water
Before his departure Vita visited the bishop,
and besought his prayers for prosperous
Journey. The bishop blessed him, and, pre-
dieting for his return great tempest and q
contrary wind that should rise suddenly, gave
him pot of oil, saying: Remember that you
cast into the sea this oyle that l give you, and
anon, the winds being laied, comfortable
fayer weather shall ensue on the sea, which
shall send you againe with as pleausaunt .
passage as you have wished
1.-THE tempest came as predicted, the sailors
essayed to cast 'ancar' in vain, the water be-
gan to fill the ship, and mo thing but present.
death was looked for At the near approach
Of death came the thought of the bishop and.
the Dot of oil. Taking it in his hand the,
priest cast the oil into the sea, when, as IL
by magic, it became quiet and calm, and the
ship was delivered
"Bede declares that he had it from a very
creditable man, priest Of our church, Gym
mund by name, who sailed that he had heards
it of Vita, the priest, in whom the miracle
was wrought Modern experiments show
that it was no miracle, and we have no
doubt the scene occurred precisely as de-
scribed This was the first recorded Instance!

THE ADAMS CASE.
1t Was Not so bad as Was
Represented.

1t was Not so bad as Was
Represented.
few days ago an article was pub
lished in the TimsS concerning a case of
dentistry, wherein it was alleged that the
Adams Bros, dentists, had been guilty
OF malpractice towards custom er named
ii. ii. Pyne, OF San ernando. The
Adams Bros. say that great injustice
was done them, and stated that Mr..
Pyne called at their office on Monday
at p. m. and said he wanted I'll of his
teeth extracted, about thirty, with the
roots. The dentists asked him questions
in regard to his history. and found that
he had a very serious time with two
teeth that were extracted in the East.
They advised him not to have
all his teeth out at once, but to
have half drawn and the others at
another time. He consented, and they
extracted fifteen. They found that the
teeth were firmly bedded in the alveolar
process, and being badly decayed, they
found it necessary to lance the gums 30
as to get firm hold. Mr.. Pyne did not
complain during the operation, and said
that he had an easier time than he ex-
pected. Then he left the office. and
later in the evening had hemorrhage,
and called in physician. The Adams
Bros. say that there was no fracture of
the jaw, but a fragment of the alveolar
process might have come away, which is
not an uncommon occurrence in cases Of
this kind. Tney also cay that Mr..
Pyne's mouth did not appear any worse
than it should, considering the opera
tion performed. The Adams Bros. have
been practicing dentistry in this city for
some time, and have always given salts
faction and shown themselves to be ex-
perts.

This is to my mind the most valuable
and practical suggesti yet made.

the cost of construction of fourteen miles
OF sewer, and an outfall, something like
three-quarters Of million dollars.

taken was that Lauterio was authorized

to distinguish between the writing of the
Auditors name and the issuing OF the
fraudulent warrants. The cases went
over until next Monday.

manager of the line, J. w. Purdam.
The people of the Basin listened to
the music of the band and enjoyed it
finely. While the dance was going
on at this place, parties by twos,
fours and half dozens were sashaying
