THE JAPANESE DENTIST. japanese
dentistry is thing to marvel at, a
gentleman who was on visit to NJ :
Hubbard. the American minister to ia
pan. sends the following interesting
narrative:
One day I was troubled with the
toothache. and Mr.. Hubbard took me
to a dentist and explained to the sad
dle-colored operator that l wanted the
Grinder extracted. l was placed in q
bamboo chair, and tilted slightly back
The dentist examined my teeth, taik-
ING volubly meanwhile to Uncle sam, S
representative. Suddenly his thumb
and forefnger closed on the trouble
some tooth, and before had the faint
est idea of what was going to happen,
he lifted it cut and held it up before
me. smiling at the same time that Va,
cant smile peculiar to the children OF
the Orient.
"You were waiting for the forceps,
were you?" said Minister hubbard,
with a laugh. "They don't use EN-
here. Look 1T this. Here is young
jap taking his first lesson in dentistry.
A twelve-year-old japanese boy sat or
the floor, having before him board in
which were number of holes into
which pegs had been tightly driven.
lie was attempting to extract the pegs
with his thumb and forefnger.
Mr.. Hubbard explained that as the
strength Of this natural pair of forceps
developed by practic the pegs would be
driven in tighter After a couple OF
wears at peg-pulling, the young den
ii,l would graduate, and be able TO lift
IA. most refractory molar in the same
:, amer that he now lifted y o pegs.

A Delightful Entertainment.

The press of Portland are indebted to
Mr.. Stanford OF the Telephone Company
for a delightful entertainment Saturday
afternoon. when Mrs. Alice Barker, the
English elocutionist, in Boston. gave a
series of recitals through the long-dis-
lance telephone to the press in many
New England cities.
Mrs. Barker gave a number of pleasing
selections, starting off with 1.-THE Sing
ing Lesson representing an imaginary
discussion among number of birds, and
her imitation of bird notes was simply
marvellous. One could almost imagine
he was surrounded by the feathered
songsters. She also gave limitations of
the whistling winds, which were very
realistic, a curious selection of a ghost
story, told in childish voice, and sever
al other selections which were highly
appreciated. The effect was as perfect
as il the hearer had been sitting in the
same room with the lady.

The Checker Tournament.

The match for the checker champion
ship of the state and the silver medal
was resumed at the Osgood Club on
Saturday evening. Mr.. Shaw and Mr..
Dingley were evidently in good trim as
the play was of a higher quality that that
exhibited in the previous games. Only
two games were played, but they were
stubbornly contested, and the issue re-
manned in doubt till the last move. In
the first game, Mr.. Dingley seemed to
have an advantage in the end play. Mr..
Shaw, however, moved skillfully and
finally secured a draw by skillful
combination. The second game was
carefully played, neither player being
able to obtain any vantage ground what
ever, and the result was another draw
game. Thus far four games have been
played, the score being; Shaw, /; Ding
ley, 0; draws, 8.
Among the spectators present was
Prof. Shepard Young, an original player
by the way, and the inventor of the fam
Gus syn game. The professors mind.
however, was diverted from the contest
by the delicious odor of boiled CLAIMS,
which proved to be greater attraction
than even his own favorite pastime;
hence many of his judicious comments
on the game were greatly missed Play
begins again on Wednesday of the pres
ent week.
