POPULARITY OF LEPROSY.
Its Victims Are Insensible to the Effects
of Electricity.

OF ELECTRICITY.
sDown at 81 onolulu," said Harry
Diamond, 81 had a battery and worked
the innocent Kanakas with the old
SIS gold piece. That is, I'd place the
piece in the bottom of a jar of water
connected with the battery. Then I'd
tell the native boys that they could
have the money if they'd pick it out of
the Jar and hold the handle of the
other pole of the battery at the same
time. OF course the moment their
hands struck the water the circuit was
completed, their fingers would be
doubled up and they couldn't touch
the money if their fortunes had dee
pended on getting it. I had many
laugh and achieved quite reputation
among the bCye az wizard who con-
trolled the devils in the water.
Gone day when several young ladies
were in the Office, a lad came in, pushed
on by a number of companions who
had attempted to secure the S. and
failed. he had been persuaded to try
for the money, and l explained the
trick to the ladies in an aside as l ar
ranged the apparatus. The boy took
the handle, and we all prepared for
great laugh.
''He put his hand into the water,
slowly drew 'vt my flyer and quietly
walked off WI D it, while I stood with
mouth open, AFRAID to face those girls,
and praying for volcanic eruption to
turn TIE trend of thought.

electricity didn't effect him"

VALUE OF EVEN TEETH.

Public Speaking Interfered with by Irreg-
ular Molars-Dentistry's Progress.
Speaking with distinctness and COM
fort depends much upon full and even
set Of teeth. If they are crowded and
irregular, or if there is now and then
one missing, it affects the voice at once
and is very annoying to others who are
obliged to listen to it. Public speakers
often fail to produce the effect they de-
sire upon their hearers from this cause
and are not conscious of it themselves.
Nothing contributes more to the beauty
of the features than a perfect, regular,
clean set Of teeth, while a neglected,
diseased mouth disgusts every beholder.
Such things are noticed nowadays much
more than formerly and good teeth and
a sweet breath are considered indis-
pensable to every lady and gentleman.
Filling the teeth is the only means of
preserving them when decay COM
mences. The science of dentistry is
now so far advanced that the skillful
operator can save and restore the teeth
even where they have been badly de-
cayed and abcessed. Some wonderful
cases have been presented in the last
few years of teeth seemingly beyond
the hope of saving, where the science
and skill of modern dentistry has re-
stored them again to usefulness, much
to the joy and surprise of the patients.
Fifty years ago the great study of the
dentist was how to make artificial
teeth; now, according to the Domestic
Monthly, all the resources of science
and art are brought to bear, and the
whole force of dental education at the
present day is centering upon, the one
great work of saving the natural teeth.

Ir L.ana keformatory Fired.

INDIA. POLLS, Ind, July 18,-The
Female keformatory of Indiana, To-
Gated in this city, narrowly escaped
destruction by fire last night. The
fire was of incendiary origin, was we'll
planned, and the fact that the attempt
to destroy the institution was not sue
cessful was owing to the efficiency of
the fire department. The fire was
started at o'clock in three different
raoms at the same time. Bed-clothing
was piled upon the floors and ignited.
The fire was subdued with little loss,
but several inmates ESCAPED.

No one who has come into contact
with the Africans reports them to be
as savage as they were represented to
be by Henry NJ. Stanley. Another At
rican traveller, CAPITALS Binger, has
gone through the savaga regions Of the
west coast and the Niger without an
escort in safety. This Frenchman says
that the natives were every where
peacebly inclined toward him, and he
was surprised at their honesty At
one place he found five or six sheds
filed with merchandise and nobody
was needed to guard it, as there were
no thieves among the people.

A conductor on the Iron Mountain
& Southern railroad tells the following
incident; eve were whirling along
the other day through the granite hills
of Wayne county, behind time and
running at furious rate when the
engineer caught sight of an old wo-
man slowly pottering ahead on the
track. Instantly the whistle was
blown. No heed, however, was taken
of it. Thinking the venerable dame
wonld get out of danger in due time,
the speed was not slackened, though
the screaming OF the whistle made the
hills ring. Yet still the old woman
kept slowly on, turning her head
neither to the right nor to the left
until the engine was almost upon her.
Then the brakes were put on with
will and the train was stopped just in
time to save her life. What the devil
is the matter with you? asked the en-
gineer as he jumped off and took the
ancient dame by the shoulders Guess
you needn't scream SO. You have made
fuss enough, already was the caustio
reply. You heard the whistle, then2'

why in thunder didn't you get off the
track?' You hbs4't got no right to,

A Patent Shoe,

A patent has recently been issued

Two tongues of leather are adapted

FACT VS.. FANCY.
The Charge at BalakIava Compared With
Other Battles.

The Charge at BalakIava Compared With
Other Battles.
The charge at Balaklava will live
forever in song; but the feat shrinks
almost to triviality when we consider
the facts. According to Kinglake, the
Light Brigade took 673 officers and
men into that charge; they lost but
lib killed and 1874 wounded; the total
being PAT, or 36.7 per cent. The heavi-
est loss in the German army, during
the Franco-Prussian War; occurred in
the Sixteenth Infantry Third West
phalian) at Mars La Tour, where it
lost, in killed, wounded, and missing,
49.4 per cent. But Colonel Fox enum-
crates no less than 63 Union regiments
which lost over so per cent, in single
battles of our Civil War, without in
Guiding others where the statistics
are incomplete. In some of these
cases, the bulk of the loss occurred
within an hour. The First Minnesota
lost at Gettysburg, in killed and
wounded, 50 per cent. of the number
that went in; the One Hundred and
Forty-First Pennsylvania lost 75.7 per
cent. in the same battle; the One
Hundred and First New York lost 73S
per cent at Manassas; the Twenty
Fifth Massachusetts lost 70 per cent.
at Cold Herbor.

Silk by Machinery.

A genius in Syria, named Mousa
Rhouri, has discovered the secret by
which the silk worm makes silk. He
can make the silk by machinery, with
out the aid of the silk worm. In this
way the cost of making silk can be re
duced one-half. A mandatory is to be
started in Georgia soon by a Syrian
colony. To manufacture silk in this
way large tract of land has been Sc
cured on which to plant mulberries,
and the emigrants expect soon to make
their fortunes.
