the four men who were named to watch

three of them are holding Government

Of course the most thrilling plot to
assassinate q President-elect was that
which Allan Pinkerton unearthed in
the stirring days of 1851. An English
man named Webster and the ex-Jesuit
priest Howard were the two men who
assisted Mr.. Pinkerton throughout the
long search for facts concerning this
most appalling conspiracy. The facts I

of the men who foiled the Baltimore

GUARDING A PRESIDENT
Ex-Deteotive Newcome Describes

How TiIden Was Watched to Prevent Him
From Assuming the Presidency
The Plot Against Lincoln's
Life in 1861.
(Copyri ght. 1898. by Bacheller d johnson
Syndicate.)

Uncle Sam manages most affairs bet
ter than do his brothers and sisters who
wear crowns, snd in no event of nation
al life is his superiority more manifest
than when a new chief magistrate takes
the staff Of leadership from the hand of
his predecessor. The nice old gentle
man, with the red and white striped
trousers, makes no fuss on such occa-
sions. A proper ceremony there is. and
much rejoicing, at least by one-half of
his family; but there is no terror in the
solemnity, no great display of guns and
sabres, no vast and grim armed guard
about the incoming ruler. A consid-
cradle body of troops will be in Wash
ington ON March 4, and they will doubt
less look very well in the parade; but
no innocent yokel who stares at them
alongside Pennsylvania avenue will be
more peacefully employed than they.
Nevertheless, the President-elect will
not be unprotected, either during the
Inauguration or before it, while he
makes his little journey to Washington.
A number Of quiet-looking men will
take great interest in his movements
without appearing to do So This is as
safe country as there is in the world,
but every land produces its cranks,
and it is the part of prudence to be on
the lookout for them.

The Teeth.

Cleanse the teeth thoroughly at least
twice a day-once on arising and again
before retiring-or better after each
meal if it can be so arranged. Use a
good brush of medium texture. As a
rule, employ simply water from which
the chill has been taken; but two or
three times a week the assistance of
some recommended tooth powder is
desirable. Throw away all your wood
en- toothpicks; the wood is apt to break
off between the teeth. There are diff
ferences in teeth: some are Of a nature
capable ,of withstanding very rough
usage, while others are frail and need
constant attention. Endure sill reason
a BILE pain for time rather than have q
tooth extracted. One natural tooth in
proper condition, and even badly de-
csyed ones may be restored to that
state, is worth dozen artificial sub
stitutes.

sThere have been exciting incidents in

more than once there is every reason to
