AN ERRAND.

Put on your hat, my boy, and go
And make your prettiest bow and say
That your mamma would like to know
How old Mrs. Weatherly is to-day.

"Well, how do you do, Mann p
I'm glad to see you. Ma'am."
Johnny bowed in his finest style,
And smiled in his very politest smile
my mother sent me over to say.
How old are you, If you please. to. day ?"

The Crust of Tartar

Speedily leaves the surface of the teeth up
on which the cleansing and preservative in
fluence of SOZODONT Is eaily exerted. NO
form of decay can infest a set of 'ivories"
uponwhich is it used. 1t has, moreover, a
most refreshing effect upon the mouth, in
which it leaves a very agreeable taste, be-
sides rendering the breath fragrant. If the
mouth be rinsed with it after smoking, the
taste of tobacco is entirely dissipated. AS
an auxiliary to personal comeliness it can
not be too highly extolled. Sold by drug

PRoPHEsYING CALAMITY.-In the Sciea-
tifc american of July 9th appeared a para
graph in which J. g. Thickton expresses
similar apprehension in respect to drilling
the earth and exhaustipg the natural gas
as is expressed by the following professors
in recent issue of the Popular Scigace
Monthly:
Professor Joseph f. Jones assumes the
earth to be hollow sphere filed with a
gaseous substance, called by us natural
gas, and he thinks that tapping these reser-
Yoirs will cause disastrous explosions, re-
sultipg from the lighted gas coming in con-
tact with that which is escaping. He COM
pares the earth to balloon hoated and
kept distended by the gas in the interior,
which, if exhausted, will cause the crust to
collapse, affect the motion of the earth in
its orbit, cause it to lose its place among
the heavenly bodies, and fall in pieces.
Another writer thinks that drilling
should be prohibited by stringent laws
He, too, thinks there is a possibility Of an
explosion, though from another cause
Should such a disaster occur, ''the country
along the gas belt from Toledo through
Ohio, Indiana. and Kentucky will be
ripped up to the depth of 1900 or 800
feet and Topped over like pancake, leav-
ing chasm through which the waters OF
Lake Erie will come down, filling the
Ohio and Mississippi valleys, and blotting
them out forever" Still another theorist
has investigated the gas wells withstele-
phones and delicate thermometers, and he
announces startling discoveries. He dis
tinguished sounds like the boiling of rocks,
and estimated that mile and one-half OF
so beneath the Ohio and Indiana gas field
the temperature of the earth is $500 de
grees.
The scientist says an immense cavity ex
lists, and that here the gas is stored; that g
mile below the bottom of the cavity is a
mass of roaring, seething flame, which is
gradually eating into the rock floor of the
cavern and thinning it. Eventually the
flames will reach the gas, and terrific ex'
plosion will ensue.

OPPOSED TO AN EXTRA SEssIoN.-The
Philadelphia North American few days
ago addressed to each republican member
of the Fifty.frst Congress two questions:
sDo you favor an extra session OF Con
gressgsand if so, why?" So far tifty,hve
answers have been received, and these
show very heavy preponderance OF sentl-
ment against calling an extra session.
Forty-three express themselves as opposed
to it, most of them stating Their opJect'0ns
with forcible emphasis, while only Twelve
want To see an extra session.-BaH. Sun.

The white republicans of North Carolina
seem to be as much disorganized as those
of Virginia. The cause of their dissatis-
faction is the insuficiency of North Caro-
lina's share of federal patronage to supply
all the applicants. If, as Mr.. Wise says,
southern republicans "are apostates for the
price of their apostacy," it is only natural
that they should become mutinous when
that price is not paid.-Aler. Gazette.
