Some men were hauling a seine in the
gulf. and when they were inside the
second bar they noticed large fish in
the haul In shallow water the fish was
found to be sawfish, and large one at
that. The seine was dragged to the
beach and the fish secured. On its back
were six pilot fish, which held On as if
they were part of the prize. With diff
Guilty they were detached and four of
them saved. The sawfish measured 131a
feet in length and AZ feet in breadth.
and weighed ESQ pounds.
The pilot fish were quite small. In
deep water they swim before the saw
fish on each side of the snout or saw, and
on reaching shoal water they attach
themselves to the back of the large fish
by an oval sucker. This sucker resem-
bles the sole of an old fashioned rubber
shoe, and the power of suction is such
that it requires strong pull to detach
them. Their special use or duty has
long remained matter of dispute

Danger in Decayed Teeth.


If the teeth are allowed to decay until
the attention required will permit Of no
further delay, and it is then desired to
preserve them for further usefulness,
much that could have been avoided by
early care must now be submitted to,
the time occupied in the dental chair is
greatly heightened, more of the natural
tooth is sacrificed Ito be replaced by arti-
fetal materially and increased pain and
discomfort usually attend the operation,
while not the least weighty among other
considerations is the additional expense
incurred.
Neglected teeth are not only unsightly
and offensive to others, but frequently
occasion painful nerve complications,
distressing neuralgias, secondarily injure
the eyesight, induce deafness, while
cases of resulting insanity are well
authenticated. Then the effluvia arising
from decaying teeth is not only unen-
durable. but the air taken into the deli
cate lung structure lover 10000 respira-
tions each twenty-four hours) is affected
by it, and in time surely has dele
terious effect on the health.-B. G. Corn

Thumb Rings.

Mems thumb rings are no rarities to
collectors. Some of the Roman speci-
mems must have been cumbrous wear,
one in the Montfaucon collection, bear
ing the bust Of Trajan's consort, Plotina,
measuring over three inches across. Me-
di@val churchmen Of high degree did
not allow 1.-The largest, first and shortest
of the fingers" to go unadorned. A mas
sive gold ring was found upon the thumb
of the supposed skeleton of Hilary, bishop
of Chichester, who died in 1859; and the
recumbent efigy of Bishop Oldham, in
Exeter cathedral, is remarkable for the
pressed together thumbs being inclosed
by single ring.
When the shrine of St. Thomas a
Beckett was robbed Of its treasures, the
famous archbishop's thumb ring, given
to him by the king of France, graced
with ruby the size of hens egg, found
its way to the thumb of bluff King Hal;
and as the humor of the king is always
voted just the thing, we may be sure the
royal hand was not the only one SO

Kinds of Toothache.

For ordinary nervous toothache, which
is caused by the nervous system being
out of order or by excessive fatigue, a
very hot bath will so soothe the nerves
that sleep will naturally follow and
upon getting up the patient will feel
very much refreshed and the toothache
will be thing of the past. For what is
known as jumping toothache," hot dry
flannel applied to the face and neck is
very effective. For common toothache,
which is caused by indigestion or by
strong sweet, acid or anything very hot
or cold in decayed tooth, little piece
of cotton stepped in strong camphor Or
oil Of cloves is the best remedy.-London

Little Maneaters.

There are other fishes which will at

which are not more ferocious than a
small South American fish found in the
waters of the Orinoco river. 1t is lit
tie creature, only six or eight inches in
length, but in schools it will attack hu-
man beings and eat them up alive if it
gets chance. When you go fishing in
that river these fierce pigmies will take
bites out of the fish you catch as you are
hauling them in and you will do well
not to fall out of the boat if you wish to
escape being mutilated. Washington

Flat Car wheels.

'dThere's q fat wheel on this truck
under this end Of the car" said an Erie
official who sat in the back seat Of the
rear car Of q passenger train. THAT
must be taken out. It might wreck the
train"
whats q fat wheelw asked the scribe.
Listen" said the railroad man. "You
hear that rapid pat-pat-pat of the wheel?
That's caused by the fat wheel On a
spot on the surface of the wheel a fat
place is worn. It may be done, and is
generally. by setting up brake so tight
that the wheel slips on the rail. Let it
slip but the least, yet small place no
larger than silver dollar will be worn
on the wheel. The next time the brake
is set up hard the wheel stops with that
same place on the rail, and it is worn
larger. By the time it lis couple of inches
in diameter it begins to pound every
time the wheel turns. Instead of run
ming q true circle as it revolves, the fat
wheel strikes fat on the rail when the
fiat spot is reached The consequence is
that when the fat spot has grown to be
three or four inches across it is very
dangerous thing. Every stroke against
the rail by the fat side Of the wheel is
liable to break the wheel and ditch the
train"
Around the shops and at nearly every
cripple track in the railroad world these
fat wheels may be seen. As soon as one
is discovered the pair of wheels affected
is taken out and sent to the junk track
to be cast into new machinery. The fat
spots are plainly perceptible, but they
would hardly be Judged by the unini-
tiated to be Of sufficient Importance to
be one of the most dangerous elements
of railroading, yet such is the CASE

Arguments for and Against Suffrage

Arguments Tor ana Against outrage
Once year in Massachusetts women
have the opportunity to take part in a
very limited way in the ordering of pub
lie affairs by voting, if they choose to do
so, for members Of the school committee
in their respective towns or cities. Once
year, with equal regularity, the legis-
lature is asked to extend this privilege
by giving women the right either to vote
for all elective local or municipal officers
or to take part in general elections with
the same powers as men.
The extent to which the women avail
themselves of the limited privilege which
they now have is often made the basis of
argument for or against an extension Of
the suffrage; while, on the other hand.
the advocates of full suffrage for women
claim it as right founded on the broad
est principles of natural justice and not
to be impaired by any considerations OF
our artificial society.-Boston Common

GEORGIA POLITICS.

Henry J. Hill of Wilkes county is a
candidate for the state Senate.
Since the announcement of Hon. w. A.
Little that he will not be a candidate for
attorney general, Hon. Joe Terrell Of
Greenville has received requests from
friends from all parts Of the state to allow
the use OF his name for the position.
In regard to congressional candidates n
the Sixth district the Barnesvllle Gazette
thinks it is probable that Butts, Henry,
Fayette and Epson counties will present
candidates, and should should such be
the case, it thinks 1t more than likely
that these delegations will readily sup
port Judge Pope, giving him at once,
with Pixies delegation, ten votes. The
Gazette figures 1t up as follows:
with Monroe divided on Cabiuass
and Berner, as she is likely to be, her
four delegates should go to Pixies csndi-
date. in view Of the close relationship ex>
isting between the people Of the two
counties. The interests of the people Of
the Two counties are virtually the same,
and there is strong friendship between
the people. This would give Judge Pope
the necessary fourteen votes. There is
every reason to believe that Spalding
county would come to Pixies support should
she see that Judge Hall or Judge Boynton
could not secure the nomination. Griffin
gets large trade from Pike, and she should
and would be glad to do this much for Pike.
This would be more than the necessary
number Of vote To secure the nomination
for Judge Pope. The nomination must be
made by these delegates. Bibb will cast
her votes for Bib, and Baldwin will cast
hers for Baldwin. Jones county will prob~
ably go for Bibb. Under the present con.
dition, and as it will no doubt exist at the
time of the convention, Judge Pope has q
better chance than any other candidate.
