4 Generation.

This is INV twenty-ffth anniversary
sermon-1SG9 and 1894 1t Is p years
since l assumed the Brooklyn pastorate.
A whole generation has passed. Three
generations we have known-that which
preceded our own, that which Is now at
the front, and the one coming on. We
are at the heels of our predecessors, and
our successors are at our heels What a
generation it was that preceded usl We
who are now in the front regiment are
the only ones competent to tell the new
generation Just now coming in sight
who our predecessors were. Biography
cannot tell it. Autobiography can
not tell it. Biographies are generally
written by special friends Of the depart
ed-perhaps by wife or son or daughter
and they only tell the good things. The
bioqraphers of one Of the first presi-
dents of the United States make no rec
ord Of the presidents account books,
now in the archives at the capitol,
which l have seen, telling how much
he lost or gained daily at the gaming
table. The biographers Of one Of the
early secretaries Of the United States
never described the scene that day wit
messed when the secretary was carried
dead drunk from the state apartments
TO his own home. Autobiography Is
written by the man himself, and no one
would record for future times his own
weaknesses and moral deficits. Those
who keep diaries put down only things
that read well. No man or woman that
ever lived would dare to make full rec
ord of all the thoughts and words OF a
lifetime. We who saw and heard much
Of the generation marching just ahead
of rs are far more able than any book
to describe accurately to our successors
who our predecessors were. Very much
like ourselves, thank you. Human ma
ture in them very much like human ma
ture in us. Atour time of life they were
very much like we now are. AT the
time they were in their teens they were
very much like you arc in your teens,
and at the time they were in their TWEEN
ties they were very much like you are
in your twenties. Human nature got an
awful twist under a fruit tree in Eden,
and though the grace Of God docs much
to straighten things every new gener-
alton has the same twist, and the same
work of Strengthening out has to be done
over again.

RECEOlNC GUMS,
People Losing Their Teeth from q Cause
but Little Understood.

people are losing their teeth from a
new cause nowadays" said a dental
surgeon to a Washington Star man.
1T rs a complaint which seems to have
become common only within the last
fifteen years or so. Recession of the
gums it is called. Tartar is deposited
at an abnormal rate, and this carbonate
of lime secreted from the saliva pushes
| the gums back from the teeth. After
awhile, if nothing is done to prevent it.,
| the trouble gets as far as the sockets
| which become inf1amed. Finally the
| teeth fall out.
"A Well-knOwn statesman came to
me fourteen years ago with a bad case
of the disease. Every tooth in his
| head was loose, and one of them was
so far gone that | took it between nv
| thumb and finger and quietly lifted it
out. Within three months had fixed
him up so that all 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 a little
medicine applied to the gums. The
distinguished patient of whom | speak
comes 10 me every two or three months
and undergoes little treatment. In
that way | have been able TO keep his
teeth for him thus far.
at is very peculiar disease. In
case SO far advanced as the one | have
described it can hardly be cured That
is to say, the tendency to an accumula-
ton OF tartar cannot be stopped. All
that can be done is to prevent it from
accommodating by scraping it away at
Intervals and by medicinal applica-
tons to the gums. In an early stage,
however, the complaint is perfectly
durable and the tendency in most cases
can be overcome. But much care and
continual attention are required.
Otherwise the person will have lost
some of his teeth by the time he is 40
years old, and after that the rest of
them will go rapidly. The making of
false teeth has arrived at great per-
lection, but at best they are poor sub
stitutes.
AS have said, this may be regard
ed as 4 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
1t. From Z years to 20 care must be
taken of the teeth lest they decay.
There is little danger of that after the
twentieth year is passed. But from
that time on one should look out for
tartar. A mouth affected in the way
speak of is almost worse than a badly
decayed mouth. The trouble means
certain loss of the teeth unless looked
out for and treated"

FIXING" A WITNESS IN TEXAS.

sOld Dave Culbertson is a great
constitutional lawyer, but | know Of a

his erudition alone his client would

Texan 70 a reporter for the Fort
Worth Gazette. Dawes client was
accused of horse theft. The evidence
was So strong against him that Dave
got several cOntinuances III hopes that
the most damaging witnesses would
in some way disappear, leave the coun-
try and so on. Well, after half doz-
en- continuances all the witnesses but
one had left the country. Dave tried
strenuously to get another continuance,
but the Judge announced severely that
the case must be tried then and there
Well, the case began, and when the
court adjourned for dinner Dave saw
conviction was inevitable, and SO in

self. The first witness after the re
opening of the court was the prosecu
tons most important witness. on
whose testimony alone a conviction
could be hoped for. The witness was
very large man, and as the day was
exceedingly warm the man used his
handkerchief quite freely. And it was
noticeable that the intervals between
the use of the handkerchief continued
to grow shorter until the man was evi

He was unable to speak, merely groan-

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Feb. 22-Waldo
Robinson, business man of Des Moines,
La. and Miss Emma Brown, of this city,
were married last night and left at once
for Des MONIES. Robinson was married
to a cousin of President Cleveland a num-
Der of years ago, and went to Battle
Creek. Mich, to live. He was an agent
for an implement firm and was transfer
red to this city. One of his wife's most
intimate friends was Miss Brown. Later
he moved to Des Moines, where Mrs.
Robinson was taken i'll and died in Octo-
Der last. While sick she wrote to Miss
Brown urging her to remember the loyal
ty of their companiouship while living
here, and that the children loved her al
most as they loved their own mother, and
that because Of that fact and because she
(the writer loved and trusted her, she
asked that she consent TO take her place
when she should die. IF [ could only
hear you whisper yes" the letter contin-
ued, Il would feel that my little ones and
their father were safe" Before her death
Mrs. Robinson told her husband of her
uesire to have him marry some one, and
asked him whom be would like to marry.
He answered that he knew of no one. She
then told him what she had written and
made him promise to grant the wish ex-
pressed in the letter. Mr. Robinson did
not appreciate the wisdom of her arrange
ments until just what the mother didn't
want to result-the children were scatter
ed. Mr.. Robinson wrote formal letter
to Miss Brown. Its reply was equally
formal. Then Mr.. Robinson came here
That was on Dec. ), and yesterday the
wish of Mrs. Robinson was fulfilled.

An Oppressive Butler.

Many funny stories have been told
of the maneuvers practised by women
of fashion and position to capture a
real English butler. and it he happen
ed 10 be the cast-off servant of a noble
family, their satisfaction was supreme.
This mania has been developed in Bos-
ton to some extent; so | was not sur
prised to hear that the scion of fam
lily prominent in Revolutionary annals
had outstripped all her sisters and
taken into her service a butler who
had formerly been employed by a real,
live Earl. Still, her triumph was but
short-lived. and her historic ancestors
were avenged; for the other day she
confessed to a friend. her confidante,
who never tells anything, that "she
hadn't eaten 4 meal in peace since he
came into the house. He had such
solemn look on his face, don't you
know, that / can't imagine what he
is thinking about; and, being used to
waiting in the Earl's family, YOU
know, it really scares me to think
he may be thinking about US. Don't
tell, dear, but really, l don't think
like noblemen's servants" - Boston

1t seems that an entirely new field
of industry has been opened to the
energetic young man that will no
doubt be emulated by the clever young
woman. This idea emanated in the
Wild and Woolly" West, and seems
especially suited to the sensible young
woman who knows her own sex well.
1t is that of wife hunting. About
one hundred young Eastern men, who
have gone to Perry, Okla, and differ
ent towns to settle, and have prosper
ed, find life very lonely without wo-
mans society OF course, as every
body knows. there are no women to
speak of in these new towns There
fore, the men have hit upon a novel
plan. They have dubbed together
and engaged a MIR. Emmett Whitmer
of Perry to come East and select wives
for them, as their duties prevent them
from coming in person. MIR. Whitmer
has in his possession the photographs of
over thirty good looking young men,,
who are pining for the charms of
matrimony. He is making a Decline
for the New England factory districts,
where his strange mission will cause a
iutter in quiet, orthodox New Eng
land
This is as romantic as what took
place during the early days of Seattle's
boom. There was the usual dearth of
women, SO ship started from the
East laden with a unique freight.
There were forty adventurous women
on board, and they were all married
within three hours of landing. They
are even to-day referred to as the
ship women" and many of them are
living and enjoying the social triumphs
of their accomplished daughters.

CHICAGO, Feb. 21,-"Wallace," the 500
pound lion which is on exhibition at a
dime museum here, escaped from his
keeper this afternoon and bounded
among the crowded audience. Broncho
Boccacio, the lion trainer, was about to
give an exhibition IN the big iron cage.
He entered the cage but the assistant
whose duty it was TO close the door failed
in some manner and the animal seeing his
chance, gave mighty bound through the
opening. He completely cleared the stage
and landed in an aisle fully twenty feet
from the cage. The brute gave vent to his
feelings when he struck the floor by send
ing up a mighty roar and then went trot-
ting up the aisle swapping and roaring.
Wallace was just reaching the open exit
to the street when Boccaclo overlook him.
He gave the brute a slash across the face
with his whip and finally the trainer sue
ceeded in forcing the hon back towards
the stage. The cage was got in readiness
and after a struggle with the brute, he
was once more put behind the bars.

Recent discoveries have demonstrated that
all the organs OF the body are under the con.

the base of the brain, and that when these are

nerve mud are also deranged. When it Is re-

Iwo-thirdS of chronic diseases are due to
the imperfect action OF the nerve centers at
