An Eminent Dentist Makes Some Inter

II would take too long To describe the
formation OF the teeth, but it may in
terest YOU To know that the enamel is
derived in the first place from the
epithelium, or scarf skin, and is, in
fact, modified skin. while the dentine,
OF which the bulk of the tooth is com
posed, is derived from the mucous layer
below the epithelium. Lime salts are
slowly deposited, and the tooth pulp.
or nerve" is the last remains of what
was once a pulpy mass of the shape Of
the future tooth, and even the tooth
pulp in the old people sometimes gets
quite obliterated by the calcareous de-
posits. The thirty-two permanent
teeth, says the Philadelphia Times, are
preceded by twenty temporary decidu-
Gus or milk teeth. These are all fully
erupted at about two to two and half
years old, and at about six years of age
q wonderful process of absorption sets
in, by which the roots of the temporary
teeth are removed to make room for the
advancing permanent ones. The crowns
of the former, having no support, be-
come loose and fail away. One would
naturally suppose that the advancing
permanent tooth was a powerful factor
in the absorption of it's temporary pre-
decessor, but we have many facts TO
prove it has no influence whatever; in
deed, the interesting phenomena of the
eruption and succession of teeth are
very little understood. l may remark
in passing that a child of six who
has not yet lost any temporary teeth
has in its jaws, either erupted or nom
erupted, no less than fifty-two teeth
mora or less formed

a Rare and Beautiful F1ant Growing II
Madeira

Rare and Beautiful Plant Growing IN
Madeira.
The plant known under this name,
Genista virgata, at Kew, is one of the
largest and finest members of the entire
genus, says the London Field, aud
should be made note Of by anyone
anxious to select the best of our hardy
Towering shrubs. 1t forms a freely
branched bush of rounded outline that
reaches height OF ten feet or more.
and about the end of June it is SO thick
ly laden with it's golden blossoms as TO
present quite a mass of that hue, which,
especially at that season, is particularly
attractive, for though the bulk of our
hardy leguminosB produce yellow bios
SONS, most Of them are over before this
species commences to unfold its flow
ers.
Though it has been such a conspicu-
Gus feature during each recurring sea-
son at Kew for many years, it appears
To be but little known, and may be
sought for in vain in the catalogues of
many of our nurserymen, at least under
the specific name of virgata. There is
certainly a good deal of confusion with
regard TO it's correct nomenclature, for
the Genista virgata OF the Dictionary
Of Gardening" is described as a native
of Madeira, attaining a height of three
to four feet. and Towering in March, so
that 1t is presumably greenhouse
plant; while by LoudOn Ct. virgata is
given as Synonymous with G. aphylia,
an inhabitant of the Siberian deserts,
of about the same height as the pre-
ceding. but with violet flowers. The
Kew plant is certainly neither Of these;
indeed, it was there for long time
grown under the name Of e.. elata, but
within the last few years this has been
superseded by the name il now bears.
