American women,s False Teeth.

Did you ever notice how many
American young women have false
teeth nowadays3" said a well-known
dentist. perhaps you never have,
but 1t is fact all the same, though
the fair wearers use every means to
prevent detection. especially by their
gentleman friends. 1t is quite safe to
calculate that out of every twenty
American young women--I mean those
moving in the fashionable society of
our cities-at least five have entire
sets while the other will exhibit the
partial sets, or it will be demonstrated
on examination that their natural
teeth have been filled and manipu-
lated very extensively. II you doubt
my assertion go into any ball room OF
the elite in the season or attend any
prominent society reception and see
for yourself.
''You doubtless think it strange that
the teeth, being such prime factor in
woman's beauty should be so neg
lected, and 1t is strange, considering
the prevailing but pardonable vanity
Of the fair sex on the subject of per-
sonAl appearance. But, nevertheless,
there is a way for accounting for it,
and that is upon the basis OF the
supreme laziness OF tho average fash.
ionable lady.

The Chinese as Farmers.

Thomas Magee in the october Forum.
A year ago, | sold for a friend in
San Francisco lot of land in a then
unbuilt western suburb A Chinanan
had been using it as garden. The
land was sandy and had not more than
$50 by $50 feet surface. The China
man therefore had the full use OF but
about 23 acres. For this speck OF
ground he regularly paid $75 per
month, and he lived on it with an as
sistant He used the land to grow
vegetables, which he sold to China
men to be peddled through the city.
Despite the high rent, he was making
money. The Rev Mr.. Vrooman, now
Chinese interpreter in the California
courts, who was for twenty-five years
a missionary at Canton, and was sub
sequea lily among the Chinese in Mel
bourne, informed me that he knew of
two Chinese in the latter place who
made living for themselves and a
horse from quarter Of an acre of
land. In addition TO thus supporting
themselves and the horse, they each
sent $50 yearly to their relatives at
home.
Chinese now rent at least 10000
acres of fruit and bottom lands with
in a radius of 100 miles of San Fran
cisco, for which they pay from four to
ten times what white lessee could
afford to pay for the same. Land in
their hands is farmed in earnest, and
with them its richness increases
rather than decreases.

INSIGHT.


On the river of life, as float along,
1 see with the spirits sight
That many a nauseous weed of wrong
Has root in seed of right.
For evil is good that has gone astray,
And sorrow is only blindness,
And the world is always under the sway
or changeloss law Of kindness.
The commoncst error a truth can make
Is shouting its sweet voice hoarsc,
And sin is only the souls mistake
In nisdirecting its force
And love, the fa.rest OF all fair things
That ever to men descended,
Grows rank with nettles and poisonous
things
Unless it is watched and tended.
There could not be anything better than
this
Old world in the way it began,
And though some.mattcrs have gone amiss
From the great original plan;
And however dark the skies may appear,
And however souls may blunder,
tell you it all will work ont clear,
For good lies over and under.

The Failure of the Irish Potato Crop.

Famine is word of such evil omen
that we need not parade it with un-
due haste. There is no probability that
the partial loss of the potato crop. in
Ireland will entail a famine, though
possibly such a disaster may result in
deplorable suffering. OF course pro-
fessional agitators will vehemently
proclaim that it is the malevolous in
fluence of the British government that
has brought about this mischief.
1t is reassuring to note the beneti-
cial changes that have taken place
since the dreadful scourge of 1867,
all tending to mitigate the visitation.
The population depending upon the
tuber is considerably less, the growth
of other crops is largely increased, the
means and appliances for distribution
are greatly extended and lastly, though
not least, the government will not be
taken by surprise as they were by the
calamity which overthrow the corn
laws and introduced free trade.
1t is mistake TO suppose that there
is any statutory limit to the duration
OF the British ministry; their official
existence depends upon their retain
ing the confidence OF the House OF
Commons and that confidence shows
no sign OF abatement.
No doubt their hands would be up
held should the onerous duty devolve
upon them of providing necessary
food for famishing population.

THE OLD FLAG DID 1T.
Fitzpatrick and His Men Saved by Woman's
Ready Wit.

htbus WV.
Shiloh and other great battles OF the
civil war have furnished material for
much heated discussion on the part OF
the general officers who participated
in them, involving questions of gener-
alship, obedience of orders. surprise.
and responsibility for defeat.
Many minor engagements, about
which no controversy can arise and
which do not form part of the writ.
ten history OF the great conflict, are
quite as interesting. Perhaps one Of
the most complete surprises o! the WIZ
to any considerable body OF troops
overlook Kilpatrick's cavalry during
Sherman's march into North Carolin
in 1865. Fitzpatrick had encamped for
the night some miles from Fayette-
vile, and had selected a large planta-
tion house as his headuuarJers. The
usual pickets had been distributed, and
the men had thrown themselves upon
their rubber blankets with every
promise of a nights rest, but before
the earliest dawn the confederate cav
airy, under Gen, Wade HAMPTON, sue
ceeded in deceivinr aud capturing the
piclsets on one of the highways lead
ing into the camp, and then charged
into the very midst of the unionists
without the discharge OF Il single gun
OF warning. The sleep OF Ktlpatrick's
men was broken by an indiscriminate
fire upon them as they scattered over
the ground. Their own artillery was
being taken and turned upon them at
short range. The prisoners held by
them were liberated. aud they joined
in the attack.
The union men were demoralized,
panic-stricken, without organization
and without leader. For time 1t
was every fellow for himself.
Pretty soon, however "Kil," as the
boys called this general. appeared on
the scene, having narrowly escaped in
undress uniform. His presence always
inspired his men and the rallying pro-
cess began. 1t was doubtful, uphill
work for time, the men being intent
only on individual escape, At criti-
cal moment in the encounter the divis-
ion colors were seen to move about in
the disorganized mass OF demoralized
men and the question was then settled.
| Order came out of chaos. A forinida-
| ole line quickly formed and it was seen
to advance cautiously at first, but soon
with a sweep and hearty yell that re-
assured every union heart.
! Hampton was forced TO withdraw.
leaving the captured artillery behind
him. The story of how the division
| colors escaped did not reach the men
for some days when this fact leaked
| out. that u woman attached to the
1 headquarters had torn them from their
! staff and concealing them under her
skirts had escaped almost simultane-
her they had found their way back
\ among the bewildered soldiers. and
1 just in time to play most important
! part in the then doubtful conflict.
Months later, when Gems. Sherman
and Johnston were negotiating for
peace or surrender, Fitzpatrick and
Hampton met and Hampton cried:
Hello, XII belleve the last time
l had the pleasure OF seeing you was
at Fayetteville. Shall | apologize for
arousing you so early?"
'Oh, no." Fitzpatrick answered, 81
