Alarming Statement With Reference
to sound Dentitfon Among Children.

There Is reason TO apprehend that unless
some cataclysm occurs to arrest the pro-
gress of civilization our descendants will
Cyprus. described by the historian Pliny
as reduced to masticate his food with a
structure of solid bone in lieu of teeth.
This, at any rate is the Inference deducted
by the New York Tribune from the sta
tistics recently published by order of the
British parliament demonstrating the alarm
ingly small number of cases in any way
sound dentition among the English people.
Of 4.OOO children attending the London
public schools there were only 707 who had
sound teeth; while during period of three
months JOG recruits were rejected by the
medical department of the army for purely
dental reasons. OF course part of this state
or anairs is due to neglect OF the digestion
and OF the teeth themselves, a fact demon
strated by the statement that of all the
girls who entered domestic service from
the London public schools last year five
sixths had never heard of such a thing as
tooth brush-an assertion that has led
the educational authorities to institute in
many of the metropolitan schools what is
now known as tooth brush drill" Decay
OF teeth has always attended the advance
OF civilization and each barbaric invasion
has been followed by a recovery of sound
teeth in the old world. Under the circum-
stances 1t might be worth while to con-
slider whether the repeal Of the Geary law
and the opening of the United States to a
pacific invasion on the part Of the Chinese
might not go far to improve the American
jaw, which. according to medical experts
is In an fmmeasurably worse condition
than that of the English-a fact probably
due to our superior civilization.

Fauntieroy's First Appearance.

1t has always been rather interesting to
me to remember that he first presented
himself in an impenetrable disguise, writes
Mrs. Frances HodSson Burnett in the first
of series of papers entitled How Fauntle-
roy Really Occurred in the December La
dies Home Journal. 1t was a disguise suf-
ficiently artful to have disarmed the most
wary. l, who am not at all far-sighted
person, was completely taken in by him.
l saw nothing to warrant in the slightest
degree any suspicion that he had descended
to earth with practical Intentions; that he
furtively cherished plans of making himself
into the small hero of book, the pictur-
esque subject of illustrations. the inspira-
ton of a fashion in costume, the very jeune
premier in play over which people in two
continents would laugh and cry.
Perhaps in periods before he introduced
himself to his family that morning of April
), 1876, in certain house in Paris, he may
have known all this and laid out his little
plans with adroitness and elaboration, but
when I first examined him carefully as he
lay on my arm looking extremely harmless
and extremely fast asleep in his extremely
long night gown, he did not bear at all the
aspect Of a crafty and designing person; he
only looked warm and comfortable and
quite resigned to his situation.
He had been clever enough to disguise
himself as a baby-a new baby in violet
powder and q bald head and floral COM
plexion.

AuriferOua Irfab MaAS.
rom the Daily Oregon Statesman.

From the Daily Oregon Statesman.
A story from Astoria says that James
Anderson, keeper Of the Fort Candy light
house. came to town. He brought with
him. carefully wrapped. a small piece of
dirty stick and an Insignificant branch of
seaweed. but both the stick and seaweed
were thickly powdered with pure gold.
The weed, or Irish moss blanc mango :"
as all the old settlers Of Clatsop know it,
grows between the kelp and the rocks in
the vicinity OF Fort Candy and Is a COM
mon article of food. After being bleached
and mixed with boiling water 1t makes a
blanc mango indistingushable from the
real corn starch. Mr.. Anderson picked
a quantity of 1t last spring. and bleached
1t throughout the summer in shallow wood
en- boxes. The other day when cutting the
boxes up for kindling wood. he noticed that
they contained large number Of scattered
of seaweed he also found traces of the pre-
cious metal. Tracing the cause of this
strange discovery to its source, it appears
that in the spring, when the swell around
the lighthouse Is not very strong, the black
sand that abounds in that locality had
been washed over the kelp continuously,
leaving these gold deposits behind on the
seaweed.
MIR. Anderson says that he has found a.
gold mine but under present conditions it
is absolutely impossible to abstract the
gold from the black sand, as no reducing
apparatus has yet been discovered that will
do 1t. 1t has been known that there is
gold in all the sand on the lower Column
ola. but up to the present though trials
nave been repeatedly made, no known pro-
cess Is keen enough to sever the metal.

REMARKABLE SOMNAMBULIsT.
A Theological Student Who wr0t
Sermons While Asleep.

~ TneOA0Ricah Stu0fht VINO HOte
Sermons While Asleep.
From the London News.
One of the most remarkable and puzzling
stories of sonambulism has recently come
to light. The subject was a young ecclesi-
astic at a seminary. The bishop Of the do
cese was so deeply interested that he went
nightly to the young mans chamber. He
saw him get out Of bed. secure paper, COM
pose and write sermons. On finishing a page
he read It aloud. When a word displeased
him he wrote a correction with great exact
ness. The bishop had seen a beginning of
some Of these somnambuiistic sermons, and
thought them well composed and correctly
written. Curious to ascertain whether the
young man made use of his eyes, the bishop
put a card under his chin in such a man.
ner as to prevent him seeing the paper on
the table before him. but he still continued
to write.
Not yet satisfied whether or not he
could distinguish different objects placed
before him, the bishop took away the piece
of paper on which he wrote and substituted
several other kinds at different times. He
always perceived the change, because the
pieces Of paper were of different sizes.
when a piece exactly like his own was
rections on the places corresponding to those
Of his own paper. 1t was by this means
that portions Of his nocturnal compositions
were obtained. His most astonishing pro-
duction was a piece of music written with
great exactitude. He used a cane for a
ruler. The clefs. the flats and the sharps
were all in their right places. The notes
were all made as circles, and those reQuir-
ing Ii were afterward blackened with ink.
The words were all written below, but once
they were in such very large characters
that they did not come directly below their
proper notes, and perceiving this, he erased
them all and wrote them over again.

FORTUNES IN A TEA CUP.
Your Fate FOretOId by the Clustering
or Scattering Leaves.

From the st. Louis Globe Democrat.
If you have two spoons in your cup II is a
sign that you will figure prominently at a
wedding before the year Is out.
If cream or milk is put in your cup before
the sugar II will cross your love.
A tea stalk floating on top OF the tea is
called a stranger When this happens to
unmarried women they should stir the tea
briskly and then place the spoon in the GEN.
ter of the cup, holding it quite still.
If the stranger in its gy-ations is attract
ed to the spoon he will come that evening
should it, however, cling to the sides he will
not come at ALL
We may observe that it really depends on
the state of the atmosphere as to whether
the stalk goes to the middle or not.
1t is a sign of fair weather If the clusters
of air bubbles. which usually rise after the
sugar has been put in, collect themselves
and remain In the center Of the cup. II, on
the contrary. they straggle to the sides 1t is
sign that 1t will certainly rain in a few
hours.
This cluster of bubbles is also called a
kiss, and portends that the owner will be
thus saluted during the course of the day.
A cluster of tea leaves with few stray
glers at the front at the bottom Of cup sig
mites hearse or a funeral. while the couple
of leaves at the bottom, If close together
signify wedding.
If the tea grounds take the form of a
woman on the side of the cup it signifies a
rival in love: if it looks like bird, 1t means
news from a distant friend; If it looks like
a book, it refers to a well-known acquaint-
ance who Is at college; if 1t looks like a tree
1t means soon taking a journey into the
country; If two stalks come together, 1t
means you are to meet a man; If 1t looks
like a snake it means an enemy.
If 1t is dog, you will meet o. hear from
a friend; If II looks like a house or n shed
1t means that when married you will keep
house for yourself and not board: IL II looks
like spire. 1t means that you will cross the
ocean; If it looks like a bridge It is an un-
questioned sign that your marriage win be
happy and your life long and strong
II 1t looks like man fishing with a rod
1T points to preacher who may either OIL
ciate at your marriage or become your hus-
band; II 1t looks like a man with many
spots lying before him, ii means that Your
husband will be rich. and may be a banker
II broken bridge turns up on the side of
the cup. 1t means that your marriage will
be unhappy.
If there are fluctuations on the side of the
cup, some faint and some heavier 1t means
a checkered life or career of struggle, some
times light and sometimes severe.
