She took Him Down.

A Washington correspondent says:

Of the manner in which q Michigan
girl took the Right Hon. Joseph
Chamberlain of his aristocratic pins
the other day. She is sister OF Gem
eral Cutcheon, q Congressman from
that state. and is spending the winter
with her brothers family. At home,
I understand, she is schoolma' am,
but wherever she goes she will carry
around with her head chock. full OF
brains and as bright wit as woman
was ever blessed with. 1t came about
that when she was assisting the wife
OF Senator Palmer at one of her re-
ceptions the Right Honorable Joseph
called. He fell into the care OF the
Michigan girl in the distribution OF
guests, but she wasn't bit overcome.
She regarded him as mortal Great.
IRE like the rest of us, and
neither fell down and worshipped
him nor was paralyzed by his inn
posing grandeur. She simply said
"Howd ye-do?" and proceeded to en-.
terrain him as graciously as i; he had
been one of her brothers constituents.
"Mr. Chamberlain discussed things
with that lama sort. of-superior-b
ing air he has. and it made the girl
mad. She lay for him, so to speak,
and her chance soon come. The talk
ran on the various subjects and final
ly landed in the British Parliament
house. Mr.. Cha N berlain asked whether
she liked it as we'll as the Capitol.
One can't judge very we'll from
pictures, Miss Cutcheon replied, 'and

ing it,"

much surprised as if she had confess
ed that she couldn't read or write.
Really, you surprise mel herepeated.
1.-THE girl gave the statesman wick
ed look and said in her coolest, most
deliberate tone:
"I don't know why you should be
surprised; have you ever been in Am.
erica before?'
Mr.. Chamberlain's eyeglasses drop
ped into his lap. He was red about
the ears and white about the lips, and
the way some young ladies, who were
standing by and overheard the con-
versation, Uttered made him more
embarrassed still, so he replied:
"But-really, now-ah. you-know, but
then-you-see-I- dare. say-it's quite diff
neutrality-suspicious.
"And later in the afternoon he told
q lady acquaintance he had met a
most extraordinary young woman

lean ladies have, you know, of picking

Ideal Husbands and Wives.

1t may be truthfully said that less
than one-fourth of the women who
marry know what they are doing.
They have no idea of what their du-
ties are, much less their rights. About
all they know is that they are getting
married. Is it any wonder that so
many are disappointed and wish
themselves out OF it?
1t is perfectly right for woman to
have an ideal husband, yet more i'm
portant that she should have clear
and distinct notion of what consti-
tutes an ideal wife. There's where the
trouble lies. They all want ideal
husbands, but never seem to
think that men may want ideal
wives. Men imagine that a wife will
make them happy, and women think
that all they need to put an end to
their troubles is to secure husband.
How sadly both are disappointed.
The wife who expects her husband to
make her happy is foredoomed to dis.
appointment; SO is the man who ex-
poets the same from his wife. We
make our own happiness, and in so
doing make others happy.

How Long Does The Honeymoon
Last?

DR. Talmage continued his course
OF sermons on ''The Marriage Ring"
and kindred topics, speaking OF the
cares and responsibilities of the wife.
He took his text from the story of
Martha and Mary, Luke, K, 40: "Lord,
dost thou not care that my sister
hath left me to serve alone; bid her,
therefore, that she help me-" In his
sermon DR.. Talmage said:
When the husband returns home
from the shop, factory, or stock ex-
change, he calls all the household wor-
rice nonsense. Oh, my man, let me
tell you your wife is a woman who
has to conduct at the same time q
university, clothing establishment,
a restaurant, a laundry, q library;
has to be health officer, police officer,
and president of the whole realm.
She has had q thousand things to do.
A housewife has to rise in the morn
ing half rested, and must have the
mornings repast at an irrevocable
hour. 1t is no matter if the fire won't
draw, or if the marketing has not been
sent in. The children must be prepar.
ed for school. Perhaps their garments
need mending or hat or a sash is
lost, but still they must be ready.
Then she has the diet to prepare for
the day or perhaps for several days.
The spring has come and there must
be renewal of the family wardrobe,
or the autumn has arrived and there
must be warm clothes to shut out the
north winds. o, man of business,

tThere are some funny old charac-
tiers among the Adirondack hunters.
Old Duncan Mcdonald is one OF them.
He likes to get city greenhorn into
the woods and paralyze him with an
astonishing knowledge of woodcraft
and skill in tracking game. Dunk is
one OF the silent. mysterious fellows
that you read about. He plays that
on the greenhorns. One day he was
out with chap to 60 fishing through
the ice. Dank wss poking along
through the woods just ahead of the
city chap when he saw deer's track
in the snow. He stopped short,
motioned to the other fellow to hold
up and looked sharply at the track,

Preaching Under Difficulties.

A curious case OF the pursuit OF
preaching under difficulties came I'M
der my notice. In a country church
in the remote districts of the West of
England a swarm OF bees had taken
up their quarters in the oaken wood
work at the back of the pulpit, to the
dismay and discomfort of the weekly
occupant of that structure. During
the discharge OF his peculiar function
he was not only annoyed with the
busy, sullen roar OF the hive. but his
fear of arousing their animosity by
the loud challenge OF his tones, or by
the vibration OF the pulpit. was stimu-
lated by the light sklrmishers which
used to come out and perform all
sort OF minatory maneuvres within
measurable distance OF his nose.
The annoyance at length became in
tolerable, and orders were given to
smoke out the bees. This was affect
ually done; but, unfortunately, the
clerk in smoking out the bees set fire
to the church, and it was burned to
tine ground. Chambers Journal.

Buy the Best.

Many anecdotes OF the early Quak-
ers are preserved in Philadelphia, to
show how even, under Peen's rule, the
impulses of human nature struggled
against their rigid laws of duty and
submission.
Not few of heyoung men OF Quak-
er families served in the Revolution.
arv Army and IN the navy in 1912,
and wore on the field their broad.
brimmed hats and shad-bellied coats.
1t is said that one OF these young
Fighting Quakers," as they were
called, met his father on the street on
his return home. The old man laid
his hand rebukingly on his sons arm,
saying, "The wool in thy coat was
sheared from my sheep, and woven in
thy mothers loom, yet there is blood
on it'll"
"And the blood is thy blood" bold
ly replied the young man. eff thou
hadst been twenty instead of sixty,
thou. too, wouldst have fought under
Washington"
"Zachariah!" stammered the old
man. SIT may be so, Zachariah.
Thou hadst better go in to thy din
ner."
A we'll known story is that OF a
Friend who was in q sailing vessel
boarded by a British press-gang in
1912. He paced the deck with folded
arms during the fight, until he saw
one of the assailants climbing on deck
by means OF cable.
"Friend, dost thou want the roper"
he said, calmly, hurrying up, knife in
hand. ''Thou shalt have it" and he
cut it. The man dropped into the
sea.
A better authenticated story is that
of a grave old Quaker, two of whose
sons went into the late Civsl War
without his knowledge. The youngest
son was fired, as was almost every
other young man at that time, from
Maine to Florida, with the wish to
give his life for the cause which he be-
lieved just. He had accepted a com.
mission, but did not wish to 60 with
out his fathers consent.
He took occasion to make his prep.
arations rather ostentatiously in mis-
fathers sight, laid out his officers uni.
form and tried to attract attention,
but all in vain. AS last resort he
seated himself in the room where the
old man was pacing up and down, and
began polishing his sword.
His father watched him, with tace
growing paler and with dim eyes. At
last he went up to the young man
and said quietly: Samuel, if thee
thinks thee must use one OF those
tools, buy the best and-I will pay
for it. Samuel"

Experiments in lmpIanting
Teeth.
From the New York Herald.

From the New York Herald.
If. as many eminent physicians as
sert, the dietary and habits OF Ameri.
cans are rapidly causing widespread
dental degeneracy, the recent success
full experiments in implanting teeth
are of a national Importance. DR..
Younger, of San Francisco, has de-
monstrated that it is prac-
ticable to replace lost teeth,
even after the socket has
been filled up with bony substance.
He simply drills into the jaw, gouges
out new socket. and then, taking a
foreign tooth that has long been ex-
tracted, cleans it thoroughly, soaks is
in bichloride OF mercury and inserts it
in the socket thus artifcially formed.
Describing this marvellous process
in its issue of the Esd inst, Science
states that DR.. w. M. Gray, the mi
croscopist OF the United States Sur
geon Generals Office, has examined q
tooth which had been implanted by
DR.. Younger's method and then ex-
tracted. DIR. Gray's microscopical ex-
animation shows beyond question
that the tooth so implanted is actu-
ally revived that circulation is estab.
lished between the socket and the inn
planted tooth and that the socket
cakes an active part in anchoring the
tooth. DR.. G. M. Curtis. of Syracuse.
N. Y, has successfully repeated DR..
Younger's experiment. and found that
q tooth which he had implanted was
SO firmly anchored that it broke when
he was extracting it.
The value of these experiments to
afflicted humanity can hardly be over
rated. Dentists who learn to implant
teeth will be almost as great benetac-
tors of the race as the discoverers OF
modern anesthetics. AS good teeth
are indispensable to healthy digestion
and nutrition of the body, the discov-
cry of means for replacing them when
lost is about as near an approach as
we can ever expect to the discovery OF
the tabled fountain of perpetual
youth,
