Last Saturday evening the compli-
mentary dinner given to DR.. j. Hayhurst,
of this city, aud other distinguished veter-
ans of the dental profession, came off in
New York city. Some sixteen or eigh.
teen aged members of the dental profess
sion were selected for this honor-men
who by their discoveries, inventions, or
contributions to the literature of the pro-
fession, had made themselves generally
known TO dentists. Among these DR..
Hayhurst is known as professor for
years in one of the older dental colleges
and as writer of numerous valuable pa
pers on dental science, comprising in all
several volumes, some of which are stand
ard works.
These distinguished veterans were hon
ored by the presence OF over two hundred
dentists at the dinner, many of them men
of great distinction, who came TO do honor
TO the men whose pioneer services had
aided TO place the profession 10 its pres
ept enviable position. Speeches were
made, "reminiscences INDUCED in aud a
agreeable time was had. The dinner last :
ed from Z TO ii P. NJ, 50 ii can readily
be seen that the dentists filed themselves
pretty full with "wittlrs" or with talking
''gas."

The Bible of the nuddhists.

The bible OF the sect is not without
beauty and high moral as well as poetic
conceptions. There is much in it of the
nature of mythology and mysticism,
which Buddhists do not pretend to I'M
derstand themselves, yeE there is much
to admire. From book of extracts and
TRANSACTIONS from the buddhist bible
give few examples:
"The perfect man is like the lily, I'M
soiled by the mud in which it grows"
Another: 1.-THE perfect man will not be
angry with him who brings him evil re-
ports of himself, lest he be not able to
judge truthfully of the matter whereof
he is accused" Its moral code contains
such rules as "Do not steal" "Do not
lie;" do not kill "Do not be drunk
ard" "Do not to another what you
would not wish done to yourself.
From these examples it may be observed
how nearly their moral law runs parallel
with our own; and that this has exerted
potent influence in forming the Chi
nese character is evident. Also, that
they cover the cardinal rules of right
living in good society none will question.
The system offers motives in the way
of rewards for right living and punish
ments Of evil doing. 1t develops symp-
athy, the source Of many virtues. 1t
teaches the equality of all men. One
man is better or worse than another
only as he observes the laws of good so.

"The art of putting the right men in
the right Places Talleyrand once said,
sis first in the science of government;
but that of finding places for the discon-
tented is the most difficult"
1t would seem from this that the dis
tinguished French statesman was as
much prey to office seekers as are the
public men of our own time. His man
ner of disposing of them is amusingly
illustrated in the following anecdote:
One day one Of these troublesome per-
sons presented himself to M. de Talley-
rand and reminded him that he had been
promised u place.
Every we'll" said Talleyrand. "but
tell something that suits and which can
be given. You don't know of anything?
Well, find something. You must admit
that haven't the time to search for you. "
The applicant was thus disposed of for
the time being, but day or two later he
again presented himself, his face radiant
with hope, and said
.Sir, such and such place is vacant. +"
. Vacant" replied Talleyrand. "Well,
what do you wish me to do? You ought
to know that when place is vacant it
has already been promised. Boston

All nrall nratter Is counted.

Persons who read the reports of the
number of pieces of mail matter handled
at the New York postoffice may have
wondered how the figures were obtained.
The explanation is simple: Every piece
was actually counted. Every employer
who stamps mail matter must keep an
accurate account Of the number of pieces
he handles and must make daily report
of the amount of work he has done. He
must not only give the grand total, but
tell what part was in each of the four
classes of mail matter, and also how the
pieces reached the postoffice.
The letters, etc., are mailed at the
postoffice, in which case they are known
as drops collected by carriers, arrive
by trains, or, in the case of foreign
matter, are brought by steamers. A
report must be made of every piece
that comes in by any one of these ways.
When one considers that an average
of about 100000 letters alone reach the
general postoffice here every day, it will
be seen that the task of counting them
is a big ono. Let q person count 1000
and then try to get some idea of the
labor involved in keeping n record of
1000 times that many, and his head will
swim at tho thought. As the counting
is done by number of men, and the
letters are subdivided into patches, the
labor is not so enormous as might at
first be supposed. York Tribune.

when opera Goor, OUGHT TO Fat.

A musical director now in the city
has another idea besides music.
Complaint is made" says he, THAT
people who come to the opera are nerv-
Gus and fidgety and do not respond to
the efforts to please. Is it any wonder?
The and o'clock dinners are the cause.
Our best people who go to make up the
coloring of the audience dine late, and
as rule they ill in regardless of the
laws governing health, and come to the
opera-shall | speak plainly?-with
enough rich food in them to make them
stupid and unappreciative. My advice
would DO to eat sparingly just before
the opera. The good. effects from the
music would assist in the digestion Of q
good dinner taken as late as midnight.
My notion will probably not agree with
that of your physician. Be it SO. l am
talking from q point which interests me.
Commanding and music don't go to
gether. Chicago Tribune.

Saint Andrews Chapel.

SAINT abureWs Chupei.
The services of Saint Andrews people
last Sunday in their temporary chapel, at
the foot of York street, were Of great in
terest. In the morning, the congregation
well filled the room. At night it was
crowded, and many stood throughout the
exercises.
Bishop Scarborough, full of zeal and
kindness, greatly encouraged the parish
toner's with the assurances of help from
the churches of the Diocese, but at the
same time told them that Selfhetp is the
best help, and that they must continue
denials if they would achieve success.
He gratefully aud gracefully acknowl-
edged The sympathy and aid of the people
of Lambertville, and could see, already, a
blessing from the fire, in its revealing the
existence Of so much Christian love among
brethren of various names. His morning
sermon was an unfolding and application
of Jacobs word in Genesis XIII. Sc, GAN
these things are against me-" At night
be preached upon the Seed that fell on
rocky ground-the disappointment and
failures that result from hasty and super
fetal religious profession and then, after
confirming a class..of three persons, ad-
dressed them in earnest words OF counsel,
to be true aud constant to their renewed
Christian vows.
In the afternoon, the Sunday School
brought in their months offerings for
missions among the Indians recited their
Catechism, and listened with delight to
the Bishops pleasant and instructive talk.
On Monday morning, being the annual
commemoralion of Christ's Presentation,
as an infant, in the temple, the appointed
office was said in the chapel by the
Bishop, the Rector and good congrega-
tion being present. 1t was the sixteenth
anniversary of DIR. Scarborough's conse-
Grafton as Bishop of New Jersey, and
thus a day of marked interest to himself
and all his people.
The little Upper room" church is very
neatly and comfortably fitted up, and the
several articles of furniture, given or loan
ed by different persons, harmonic well
together and combine to make the chancel
quite churchly and suitable to lis sacred
purposes.
Services are held every Sunday at the
customary hours, as also on Friday morn
ing and Saturday evening. Wednesday
of next week, being Ash Wednesday, there
will, in addition, be an evening service at
7:30.
The appointments for the Lenten sea-
son will be published next week.

He was the sou Of Joseph aid Eleanor

The Sunbury pa. Democrat OF last
week, Civ Mr.. Frank Ellmaker, former
ly of this city, the following well merited
''send off" upon his appointment as Su
perintendcnt of the Amboy Division:
"a year and half ago Mr.. Frank Eli
maker arrived in Sunbury to take the place
Of Mr.. Walter. He was without an &C
quaintauce in the city, but in that short
time has made many friends. In fact he
is one Of the most popular officials that
was ever in Sudbury both with his men
and with our citizens, aud although there
is qualification on every side at his pro-
motion there is universal regret that he is
forced to leave Sunbury. Mr.. Elmaker
was originally from Lancaster county and
studied civil engineering 10 Philadelphia.
He was chief engineer of an Ohio road
for several years aud was then offered a
position on the Pennsylvania. His rise
was rapid one, and 10 few years he
was appointed assistant engineer of the
New York Division. From there he was
promoted to Superintendent of the Belvi-
dere Division and from there was promo
ted to the Sunbury Division. His admin
istration has been an eminently success
full one, and his promotion is due to his
knowledge and skill as railroad super
intendent. II the report is true that his
headquarters will hereafter be at Amboy
he will carry 10 that place the well wishes
of host of Sunburians. The Sunbury
division has given to the railroad world a
remarkable list of talented men as super
iniendents, but among them all, as they
advance with time, there will be none
whose progress will be watched with
more interest and friendly feeling that
will follow the name OF Frank Elmaker. y

Tho Earth's Age.

The age of the earth is estimated from
the increment in the temperature as we
penetrate its crust. Tho rate at which
the earth cools can only be determined
by making use of data confessedly inn
perfect; but from these Sir William
Thompson finds that 00,000,000 or 200,-
100000 years ago it first began to be
crusted over by solid film of rocks;
that 100000 years afterward it was
still so hot that the temperature in
creased Q dogs. Fahrenheit for every foot
vertically descended below the zone Of
constant temperature. The present rate
of increase averages about 1.51 of de-
gree for every foot.-St. Louis Republic.
