DREDGING THROUGH SOLID

A Powerful Vessel Recently Con.
structed for Work at Alexandria

Formerly when it was na,dful 10
make channel through rock it was
customary to shatter the obstacles by
blasting and then dredging out the
broken material, but, according to the
New York Evening Post, recent dredg-
ers are powerful enough to cut the way
through the rock without any prclim-
i,ary blasting. A little while ago new
channel into the harbor Of Alexandria
was cut in this fashion. 1t Is $40 feet
wide and runs through solid rock.
Lately 1t was decided to make a new
channel at Bermuda, and for this spec
ial purpose a new dredger has been
constructed in Scotland. 1t Is the larg-
est in the world, having displacement
Of 200 tons, and is built entirely Of
steel. Its length is 2O8 feet, beam 10
feet, and its depth II feet 3 inches, d.
mansions which will enable 1t to 60 any.
where and face any weather. The
dredging gear, ladder and bucket chain
are the strongest ever made and weigh
about 100 tons. This gear has such an
access Of strength that 1t will pull up
the engine IL any snsuperable impedl-
ment Is met with In working, and a
breakdown will thus be avoided. The
bucket ladder Is fitted with ten power
full buffer springs to cushion any shocks
that may be experienced when the
dredger is working In sea swell. The
vessel will dredge to o depth of forty
five feet below water level, and win be
able to cut 'her own notation''- is,
cut her way through a bank above
water level,

It is not the painter alone who uses
natural flowers for studies. They are
also Of great use to those who embroid-
er them in their natural forms and
colors. If this work is done perfectly,

q tinge of pink in it has across one

blossoms, in which the cOlOrs selected
for the embroidery have very real
effect. WOod-brown in three shades Is
used for the stems, four shades of
sage green and two of olive are usctl
for the leaves. while for the flowers
that are wide open cream white is
used, with faint pink OH the edges,
and q little deeper touch of pink OH

When VIC think reverently and ad-
miringly Of the father Of our country,
and Of all the dangers he dared and
the evils he encountered we are not apt
to remember one of the hardest trials
Of his life; and that must have been the
accommodation of his mouth to set Of
teeth manufactured 5000 miles away
from that mouth, and carved, it Is sud,
from whole block of ivory. When he
had contrived to accommodate himself
to the momcntous affair 1t must have
been singular revelation that his
smile made, and Lady Washington, may
have found something trying in the
face opposite her Of the greatest aud
grandcst of men. What marvel in
comparison is the dentistry Of to-day,
that knows how to preserve the teeth
indefinitely while that is bcst,and so to
preserve the shape Of the face and the
original beauty Of the lips, and upon
necessity can absolutely remove the
bone, and put in its place the prepared
rubber, to which the plate shall be RI
voted and clampetl, till a fair face is
made out of Il ruin. And what differ
cnce in the teeth made to-day to supply
deficiencies, SO light, so useful, fitting
80 smoothly in the plate, that one al
most longs to see nature replaced and
improved upon universally.
Yet in spite Of the beautiful dclicacy
and regularity of the modern artificial
tooth in general, Il much better effect
Is obtained when the teeth are not so
perfect. and each so exactly like its
typical prototype. A little gold filling
here. Il very slight shortening there, q
tiny gap, II hint Of overlapping, IN atom
or two Of uncyenness Mt the end, all
help more in the vraiscmblance than
matched and precise perfectness does.
This. however. is more useful than for
the vElisemblance In giving Individual
ity to the mouth. All and each of these
little peculiarlties seem to express some
itliosyncrasy of the person possessing
them; they are like arresting and re-
tanning points to the memory or the
Imagination. And provided they DO
not to 6btrusive. and the teeth are sui.
ticiently wholesome looking otherwise
they do not at all interfere with the
charm of "sugarel lips parted with su.
gar BREATH" 1t is with difficulty, in
deed, that any healthy teeth unless
they IRE set In ugly and projecting
gums, can do aught but add to the lus.
ter and life Of the cOuntenance. A man
whose beard largely hides his teeth can
even meet this difficulty, and Is never
at the disadvantage, SO far as teeth
IRE spoken Of, that woman is when
these teeth are not all they should he.
