DEATH OF THOS. HARDEN PAINE, 1R.
Jackson Tribune and Sun
Thos. Harden Paine, Jr., son of
Capt. Thos. II. Paine, Supertenten-
dent of the City Schools, died at
the residence on East Main, this
city, of consumption, at LOO
o'clock yesterday afternoon, after
a lingering illness.
Mr.. Paine was in the drug bust,
ness at Savannah until last fall,
he sold out and went to Louisville
to accept a fattering position.
His health giving away he joined
his father in this city, expecting
later to go to Texas. But the
dreaded disease had taken sure
hold on his system and he gradu-
ally grew weaker until the end.
BY all who knew him he was
esteemed a model young man aud
. a brilliant future seemed to be OPP
ening for him. 1t seems hard to
see a young man like this stickeu
down in the flower of youth. But
his parents have the consolation
of knowing that all is well with
him for he was a Christian anC
when told that he must die said i
was all well with him.
The family have our SINGER,
sympathy in their bereavement.

Being around town one day last week in search of items we accidentally dropped into Dr H. l.. Ross dental rooms, thinking we might catch the genial doctor with 8 few moments to spare for social chat. but we were doomed to disappointment, for he was '' busy as bee" and thinking best not to try and get any items from him we started to go out, but observing some new instruments in his office we of course had to ask some questions about them, and the doctor having arrived at 8 good stopping point with his work, kindly gave us few moments of his time to explain the uses of the new and improved instruments and machinery. The doctor had been taking lessons in what he termed the every latest Dental Grown and Bridge Work" and in order to do that class of work satis- factorily he had been obliged to pur- chase 8 number of new instruments, the uses of which he explained to us, but time nor space will not permit us to give description of them here, but we would like to say word about the new and improved method of crown and bridge work, which consists of placing gold crowns on old teeth which are too badly decayed to be saved in any other way, and after this crown Is set there is no possibility of any further decay. The bridge work is done by placing gold crowns over whole teeth or roots of teeth and making solid gold bridge from one to the other and attaching artificial teeth to the gold. In this manner full set of teeth can be perma- nently set in the mouth on four good teeth or solid roots. The doctor has done considerable of this class of work within the past few weeks and in every instance it has given the best of satis- faction.
