WOMAN'S WORLD.
A FEW Things Of Interest to the Fair
Sex.

Worth Reading.
Good teeth and sweet breath, says the
Chicago Mail, are within the reach of al
most every one. The services of a good
dentist will insure the former against
sgch imperfections as shall be positively
unsightly or faint the breath. The advice
of YOUR dentist should be sought as to the
proper tooth powder to use, as many of
fine compounds on the market contain
harmful acids and gritty substances. An
exchange says there is no surer way to
destroy the teeth than by the want of
brushing or rinsing after eating fruit. In
California, where fruit Of all kinds is so
cheap for ten months of the year as to be
within the reach of almost the poorest,
beautiful teeth are rarely found, while it
is a very common thing to see even young
women with false teeth. Excess in the
use of fruit sometimes produces undue
acidity of the stomach, which also reacts
on the teeth.
Six ounces of rose water, mixed with
two drachms of chlOrate of potash, is an
excellent purifier of the breath. Rinse
the mouth after each meal. For acidity

A box of the very finest powdered char
coal which can be obtained at a drug
store should be always at hand. Give
the teeth an occasional brushing with it,
or rub a little between the interstices Of
the teeth at night, brushing it out in the
morning.
The habit of what is called flirting,
which some young men and women in
dulge in, says the New York Sun, is Sc
verely condemned by the Peoples Jour
nal 1T is through Irritation, which has
advanced to something like fine art,
that many marriageable young folks lose
their chance in life Filtration destroys
confidence between the persons who in
dulgein it; it prevents thenaturRl growth
Of mutual esteem; it is not thing of good
faith, 1t is an error to suppose that love-
making and Irritation are Identical; they
are, in truth, antithetical. Lovemaking
is tender and enuobling, while Irritation is
cruel, foolish, and demeaning. The one
is the prelude to welded happiness; the
other is inimical to it. Young men and
women should exercise their reason while
on the lookout for suitable life partners;
yet many of them give encouragement to
tilrters, silly tlirters, who are taken up or
thrown off, with results that are often
grieVous indeed This is truly a sage
discourse of the Peoples journal upon
serious subject We are inclined to think
that it is sound in the main we guess that
1t Is worth the notice of those concerned.
We therefore present it here, in the inter-
est OF all young people of both sexes, in
GLIDING those of them who are summering
away from their homes in the city at this
pleasant season Of the year.
The following is true account of the
development Of a curious and alarming
complaint which suddenly attacked Chap
PIE ana ChoIIy as they were dining back
from the - Club the other daV, saws
the New York Tribune, and which is
still afording great amusement to their
friends. One of these young gentlemen,
who was driving his companion in his bug
gy, suddenly complained of a stitch in his
left side. The pain grew more and more
intense, until he became quite seriously
frightened, when, to the CONSERVATION of
the pair, the other man was attacked pre-
clSely IN the same fashion on the right
side With fifteen mile drive ahead of
them, and fancying themselves seized by
some mysterious and inscrutable disease,
with the pain increasing every moment,
Ine prospect was not a pleasant one.
Wildly they dashed the horse in order to
reach the nearest village and a
DOCTOR and on they dashed over
stones and ruts, leaving the
tustlc passersby agape with as
constituent. Suddenly. in the midst
OF his lamentations over the
pam, Cholly exclaimed, ''Don't you
smell something burning2" and a strong
smell of fire which, if it had not been for
Jnef excitement and fright, they would
nave noticed long before, made itself
very apparent. by Joye!" shouted Chap
PIE as he clapped his hands on his waist

Slowly burned its way through the gar

eAleuded itself to the trousers of his
friend, burning large hole in his last
