Those who imagine that the care of
the teeth and the replacement of the
natural grinders with false ones is
something new under the sun" may be
surprised to learn that artificial teeth
were made Of ivory, placed on plates Of
the same material and held together and
in place by gold wires and rivets 500 to
1000 years before Christ. Herodotus,
ssthe father of history" tells us that the
Egyptians of the fifth dynasty under
stood the diseases of the teeth and their
treatment. There are several passages
in history to lead one to the belief that
both Caesar and Antony wore artificial
teeth.
The date Of the introduction of false
teeth into Europe is uncertain. They
were known in England as early at least
as the time of the discovery of America.

1886, contains an account of Sir John

SUCCESSFUL CHERRY CULTURE.

What Prominent Fruit Growers of Vari-
GUS Sections Say About It.
A Minnesota correspondent Of Rural
New Yorker names the Morello family of
cherries as enduring best the rigors of
his climate. He has had greatest sue
cess with trees growing in light loan
and sandy soils. He does not prune
cherry trees except to remove broken or
injured branches. The ex-secretary of
the New Jersey Horticultural society
says that his best success has been with
native. Mazzard cherry stocks. These
when transplanted and grated or
allowed to remain and grated where
they stand are his best trees. He never
prunes cherry trees except at planting
to give the head proper shape.
G.. T. Powell, Of New York, says that
the best soil for cherries is a gravelly
loan which is naturally well drained.
The location should be high-a hillside

A wise Preoaution.

Every now and then there crops up the
old story of the hero who plunged into the
seething waves and rescued beautiful
maiden from drowning. This beautiful
maiden is invariably the beloved daughter
and sole heir Of wealthy old retired mer-
chant, and when the hero asks for the
daughters hand, which he always docs
in the story-the old merchant sobs:
''9less you, my boyl You saved her; take
her. She is all yours, and my heir is cor
ralled.n
Jake Smithers is hero, but I cannot
truthfully say that he is cast in romantic
mold. He is the librarian Of his Sunday
school, and always takes an active part in
the picnics and outings of that organiza-
ton.
In addition to his other marked peculiar
tiles Mr.. Smithers is confirmed bachelor,
though he is fairly well supplied with this
worlds goods.
At the Last picnic J axe distinguished him
self in very remarkable way; indeed it is
doubtful if any of the Sunday school teach
ers will cease talking of it for years to come.
A steamer was chartered to take the Sun
day school to Weldons beach, on Long
Island sound, the advantages of that place
being it's SWINGS clans and a fine beach
for bathing.
After lunch the young ladies donned their
bathing suits and began disporting along
the sand like SO many merry mermaids.
Most of them got only their feet wet, for
when the water threatened to come higher
they ran back screaming and seized on the
first man within reach for protection.

Whole versus Piece Root Grating.

There is no very general agreement
among orchardsts as to the comparative
merits of whole and piece root grating.
From experiments made at the Illinois
station the conclusion was reached that
the whole root has no advantage over q
piece root of the same size, size refer
ring to both length and thickness. It
is, however, to be remembered that this
conclusion was arrived at as the result
of only one years work, the study of
whole and piece root grating at that
station having but just begun. Mani
testify much longer time will be neces-
sary to decide the effect on the mature
tree and the fruit, and the conclusion
was not considered as at all settling the
question. Piece root grating is popular
among nurserymen, as the young trees
are much more readily and cheaply pro-
duced; but, says the agriculture editor
of the New York World, the intelligent
advocates for trees grown upon whole
root stocks are increasing in numbers,
and they give excellent reasons for their
preference for whole root trees.

GAINS AND LOSSES.
BY MARGARET E. sANGsTER.

Come the hours when we sit in the shadow
That falls like the droOp of wing
Ger the nest that Is naked and empty
When the fedgings have learned how to
sing.
Then woe is the heart for the old time,
The time that was busy and gay.
With the world and its clamor about us,
And we in the midst of the fray.
In the shadow we count up our losses;
We creep where we marched with the best
Oh! the ache when we try to walk softly,
The cry of our soul against rest
And we grieye for the golden heads van
ished;
Our children are women and men,
And wistful and deep is the yearning ax
To have them but children again. 81
And we fret DER the fruitless endeavor, 80
The labor that satisfied not. vs.
Til the SHADOW grows thicker and longer, R
On the lingering SplendOr of sunshine,
That taps with its lances of light
At the shut ard barred door of III memory,
An after-glow radiant and bright.
Do we see nothing else but our losses,
We mourning there. fools and purblind,
With the crown and the kingdom before US,
The conflict and turmoil behind?
Shall the harvest lament to the seed-time,
The bud be less blithe than the leaf?
Is there Joy when the plough breaks the fur
row.
And none when the hand binds the sheaf.
Oh! wings that are folded and dropping,
Spring wide in the evenings uplift;
Reach out to the stars that are showing
The skies in silvery rift.
No day of our days is so hallOwed
AS that when we see, just before,
The light in the house of our Father
Shine out through his halfopen door.
-Harper's Bazaar.
The Portland daily press., 1893-02-03

Two girls, holder if not more beautiful
than the rest, ventured into the coaming
breakers. They had not been out long
when scream from one OF them attracted
the attention of the people on the beach,
and some one started the thrilling cry:
"Help Helpl They are drowning"
The clergyman, cold gentleman, but
evidently not champion swimmer, caught
sight of the distressed maidens and cried
out:
is there no brave swimmer here who
will save those poor girls? Helpi Help!
Helpp'
At this crisis Jake Smithers came to
view, and to him the pastor rushed and
fairly yelled as he dragged the young man
toward the water.
Leap in and save themi Hurry, Jake
Mr. Smithers!"
Instead of obeying this command in hero
like style Jake slowly removed his coat
and boots, and looking about him with
maddening GOODNESS asked:
lis there magistrate here?
''No, nop' replied the preacher.
s.Any one who can administer an oathf'
''No! See! 1t will soon be too latel"
Still as cool as the water at his feet Jake
Smithers took few steps in the direction
of the girls and then shouted:
'I'll save you if you first agree to take q
solemn OATH Are you readyP"
Both nodded their heads.
Hold up your handsl'
They did as he requested.
NOW you do both solemnly swear that
after have rescued you you will not feel
that am in duty bound to marry either or
both of your s
'sYe-yesr' they gurgled, for the water
was totheir lips.
With this assurance Jake Smithers
leaped in and brought the maidens to the
shore. But they are not grateful, for they
persist in speaking of him as lust little
bit the meanest man that ever did live. !"
But Jake thinks that he only took wise
precaution in leap year.

Tho Lively Loon.

The loon is the quickest Of living crea-
lures, says writer in Golden Days. A loon
that has had experience can dodge the flash
of a gun. You see a loon on lake, but
long before you see him he sees you and has
taken mental inventory of you and your
belongings. II you have no gun you may
perhaps approach within 100 yards before
be laughs at you with that horrid shrek
which gives him his name and disappears
under the water, but show a gun and he
does not stop to laugh-he goes instantly.
When in sportive mood he sometimes
waits until he sees you ready to fire, when
at the flash he dives and you see the shot
spatter the water where he has just gone

Pruning Old Orchards.

Close pruning of old orchards during
fall and winter cannot make an addi.
tional fruit bud the next spring, but will
make larger fruit and also give more
buds next fall; but, says American Gull
tivator, cutting off too much at one time
lessons the vitality of the tree and
shortens its life, besides inducing an.
other too abundant growth Of wood on
the limbs that remain. Prune little
every year until the shape is just right,
and then keep it SO by cutting out small
limbs each year.
