It Is very rlre thing, nowadays, to
hear of providence blessing human be
ing with new set of teeth, unless per-
chance, they are made by vampire who
wants to help the Almighty out by fur
nshing them at $l5 or $40 a set, and
ofttimes much more than that Never.
theless, Wilmington has such a freak OF
nature J. r. Roberts, living at No.
1902 Spruce street. is cutting his third
set of teeth, and he Is as proud of them
as his mother was when he cut his first
set.
Roberts is cabinet maker by trade,
and is employed in the Pullman car
shops. He is 81 years old.
When he was one year old the neigh
bors were graSely informed that Baby 8
cut tooth and he soon had his full
So.
BY the time he was 8 years old, con
fections and general juvenile wear and
tear had used this first set up, and then
be began cutting his second set, and
they quickly replaced the first set. This
set stood by Robert very well, but of
late years they began to fail He was
just beginning to debate with himself
whether he should order an artificial set
or gum it, the rest Of his natural days.
when Dame Nature solved the problem
Not loug age his toothless gums be-
gan to feel sore in several places. He
could not understand it at 6rst. but by
and by an eye tooth forced itself through
and he began showing it to his friends.
Shortly after this front tooth forced its
way through, and now he has three others
coming just as fast as his gums will let
them He is helping them along all be
can and feels confid Mt that by the time
the five are through and ready for work
several others will be on their way to
help them.
