Working "a Creased GROWER.

While 1 was in "growlcr joint" or a
saloon in the growler district yesterday,
a typical tough came in with a large
can under his arm. 1t had no handle
and was badly battered.
Gimme a pint" he said.
The bartender took the can, felt the
inside with his finger, smiled and said
as he winked: Eyer can't give me the
dinky dink, Gull. I'm dead onto your
curves"
He took q towel and carefully wiped
the inside of the can. Putting the can
under the beer spigot he let the beer
run until the froth came over the top,
and then returned the can to the tough.
"Great game, that" said the barten-
der, "and It's new, too. Only a GROWER
rusher would think Of it. How is 1t
worked? This way: One of the gang
gets a piece Of fat and rubs 1t all
around the can on the inside. They
rub it a short distance from the middle
If the can is large, and near the top If
small. You see, we measure
beer, but just pour it in until the froth
reaches the top. Well, as soon as the
froth strikes the fat around h inside
it won't go any higher until the beer
forces it up, so that they get all beer
instead Of all froth.. See the game?-

A Boom In vWlitevasi..

e. A missionary stationed at one of the
South Sea Islands determined to give
his residence. O coat Of .whitewash. To
obtain this, in the absence, of lime,
coral was reduced to powder by burn
ing. The natives watched the process
of burning with interest. believing that
the coral was being cooked for them to
eat. Next morning, they beheld the
missionary's cottage g%littering in the
rising sun white as snow. They danced,
they sang, they screamed with joy.
The whole island was in confusion.
Whitewash became the rage. Happy
was the coquette who could enhance
her charms by q daub of the white
brush. Contentious o One party
urged their superior rank; another OBJ
tained possession of the brush, and val
iantly held it against all Corners; a
third tried to upset the tub to obtain
some Of the cosmetic. To quiet the
hubbub more whitewash was made,
and in a week not a hut, q domestic
utensil, a war club or a garment but
was as white as snow; not an inhab-
liant but had his skin painted with gro
tesque figures; not a pig that was not

in every direction capering joyously
and yelling with delight in the contem-
plation of the superior beauty of
their white-washed babes.-Missionary

Of exquisite china, when it is an easy
matter to spend $1,000 for a dozen
porcelain plates, silver in this form is
relegated to an inferior place, and, like
the heavy cid four-post bedstead, be-
comes attractive only when it is an
heirloom. However, the collecting of
beautiful china is not entirely a modern
fashion. That extravagant lady, Catle-
rine the Great of Russia, not content
ed with her massive service of gold,
had made in France for the imperial
table several dozen plates painted by
distinguished artists of the time, for
which she paid about 1000 rubles a
plate. French works of art were made
to the duty of dinner plates, upon which
was served plenty Of Tartar sauce

people are losing their teeth from Il
new cause nowadays" said II dental
surgeon. lit is Il complaint which
seems to have become commo only
within the last fifteen years or so. Re
ccssion of the gums it is called. Tar
tar is deposited ut an abnormal rate.
and this carbonate of lime secrctcd
from the saliva pushes the gums back
from the teeth. After Il while. if moth
ing is done to prevent. the trouble gets
rs far as the sockets, which become in
famed. Finally the teeth fall out.
"a well known statesman came to me
fourteen years ago with Il bad case Of
the disease. Every tooth in his head
was loose, and one Of them was SO far
gone that I took it between my thumb
and finger and quietly lifted it out.
Within three months | had fixed him
up so that I'LL the rest Of his dental
equipment was perfectly solid in his
jaws. 1t was accomplished simply by
removing the destructive tartar and
preventing it from accommodating again;
also with the aid Of IL little medicine
applied to the gums. The distinguished
patient of whom 1 speak comes to me
every two or three months and under
goes Il little treatment. In that way l
have been able to keep his teeth for
him thus far.
ut is Il very peculiar disease. In 8
case so far advanced as the IL l have
described it can hardly be cured. That
is to say, the tendency to IN accumula.
ton of tartar cannot be stopped. Ali
that can be done is to prevent it from
accommodating by scraping it away at
intervals and by medicinal applications
to the gums. In ar early stage, how
ever, the complaint is perfectly durable,
and the tendency in most cases can be
overcome. But much care and contin-
ual attention are required. Otherwise
the person will have lost some of his
teeth by the time he is forty years old,
and after that the rest of them will go
rapidly. The making of false teeth has
arrived at great perfection, but at best
they are poor substitutes.
LAS 1 have said, this may be re-
garded as a new disease. AT all events,
it is only in recent years that it has be-
come prevalent. 1t is important that
peoples attention should be called to
it. From seven years to twenty care
must be taken Of the teeth lest they de-
cay. There is little danger Of that
after the twentieth year is passed. But
from that time on one should look out
fol: tartar. A mouth affected in the
way I speak Of is almost worse than a
badly decaycd mouth. The trouble
means certain loss Of the teeth unless
looked out for and treated ."-Washing-

A lady and gentleman who had been

down to luncheon in the Swedish cafe,
where the walters are supposed to be

the Swedish nightingale. At least, they
are dressed in the costume Of the peas

was the order given, for these two peo-

To keep land which is as yet free
from the pest from becoming seeded
by the tumbling weeds and free seeds
the following plan is worthy Of trial:
Sow each spring Il strip Of sun flowers
about n drill width around each field.
Induce these to row as dense and
strong as possible. Leave the stalk
standing during the following autumn
and winter, clearing the ground by fire
in the spring.
We believe that each farmer can
readily keep his own farm clear Of this
weed. provided it is kept off the waste
lands and roadside. For this purpose
we have q state law with direct refer
ence to this weed. Enforce it. If for
some reason it is incff"ct.lal the people
of this state should find it cut speedily
that it may be rcmedicd.

"sweet Charity"

SNvCC
In the Artists Exhibition Of 1893 at the

exhibited an oil painting by ]. L. Ferris,
entitled "Sweet Charity" Its richness Of
coloring commanded instant attention, while
the lesson it taught was so impressive that
one naturally returned to it for q second
view.
Its subject is a young lady of co-onial
times who is on an errand to one Of the
poorer families of the town. She has q SEN
sible. charming face, which expresses with
remarkable fidelity the sentiment of her
errand. There is not a home that this
charming picture will not ornament. 1t
must be seen to be appreciated.

A Melancholy Affair.

Social customs in Japan differ widely
from those which prevail among us.
Over there, for instance, a wedding
must be rather of a melancholy affair.
1t is not good form for the bride to adj
NIT that she is glad to get married.
When she Is told Of the prospect she
is expected to howl loudly and long.
Also she must keep it up by day and
by night until the ceremony takes
place. After she has been richly
dressed for the event she must renew
her shrieks and hang back until Of
the attendants throws a veil her
face. Then an old hag takes her on
her back and carries her to q sedan
