The Danger Of Bread.

A Boston dentist tells the follow
ing story: Within the past year he
has had come to him for professional
treatment four Swedish girls. The
teeth In each OF these young women
were really crumbling away. And
why? In their native country, where
the Swedish bread is baked ut inter
walls during the year and hung on
poles to dry and harden, the teeth
had their proper exercise. But when
these girls became subject to Amer
lean civilization, and were obliged
to eat the pap and pastry In homes
where more time 10 devoted to cater
Ing to the taste than to finding out
the needs and requirements OF tho
body, the masticating OF food was no
longer q necessity, and the teeth /,
finding they were OF no more service,
decided to take themselves out OF the
way.

Whltsst City In the World.

There cannot possibly BIZ whittier city
than Cadiz, unless II he built of snow.
The best way to approach the port Is to
take trip In one Of the small steamers
which ply between the ports of Morocco
and Spain. AS you near the coast you see
in front Of you white mass which ap.
pears to be floating upon the water, just
as you IRE. The first thought of for
cigncr is that he is in sight Ut an iceberg.
The white mass glitterng in he sun, and
rendered more dazzling by the blue sea
and sky, looks exactly like monster Ice
mountain partly melted, so that the out
lines of castles and hills appear upon 1t;
but only for second does tue illusion
last; for you know there are no iccSergs
In that part, and you are quickly informed
that you are looking at Cadiz. No other
town In the world presents such magic
appearance.

The Luscious Nseksr.

Snusages IRE great institution In
Germany: the variety IL bcwlldering.
People who eat them say that many
of these German sausagcs are dclici-
Gus. There IRE shops where hardly
anything else In sold. Ono cnn buy
them hot, I'LL ready to serve, or they
may bc cooked ut home. These hot
snusagcs are boiled or steamed, not
fried. Several kinds are boiled. but
the blood sausagcs are the ones that
are most frequently served In this
manner. In the sausage shops one nj.
ways finds large nicklc-platcd
steamer ON the counter, where tho
sausagcs are kept hot; also cooked
meats. There are shops wholly de-
voted to cooked meats, and here one
can purchase any kind of poultry or

Az u rule these meats are Of good
quality and cost much less than In
France.

SOME INDIAN DOas,

Kickapoo Indians are very fond Of
Vdogs, both alive and fricassced. Around
their ,cpccs. or wickiups, or Queen
Annes, or whatever they call their abotes,
there arc always half dozen wolfish dogs.
i}An Indian dog hates white man us far
Ias he can smell him, and that Is saying a
good deal.
When white man, driving through
The Kickapoo country. sees dog by the
roadside, his natural impulse Is to whistle
In friendly way. for somehow in
wilderness OF pariric or forest dog Is q
comfortable sight.
II But the instant you whistle to an Indian
dog he turns his tail aud Is out Of sight
quicker than If lie had been kicked. An
91ndian never whistles to his dog when he
wants his beast to come 10 him; he places
his tongue against his teeth and Kisses.
The colored population Of Oklahoma
have almost as many dogs as the Indians:
Those who live In the blackjack sand
hills arc dog rich. These dogs have y
dccp.roo,ed aversion for the white man
also. When an old colorcd cotton planter
comcs to town some Of the dogs IRE sure
to follow, and when the Old man walks
uptown the dog stays right between his
feet. like country dog under wagon.
And whenever white man comes within
swapping distance the dog gets busy.

WISE CREATURES.

When marvellous stories about the 50.
gacity OF animals are once started, there
II always sure to be an amateur naturalist
waiting In ambush who has discovered
what lie considers TO he proofs Of amazing
intelligence Ia some creature not usually
associated with the Idea Of much mental
development. The London Spectator has
been the means from time to time OF un.
esrlhing several good tales Of clever dogs
aud cats, aud the assertion has been
haxarded by one Of its correspondents
that the dispositions OF animals are ~
varied as those OF human beings. That
different dogs have different tempera.
ments can easily bc demonstrated by any.
body who will try to pat the first twenty
stray dogs that he meets when no takes
his mex, stroll abroad. II has not, how.
ever, hitherto been understood that spiders
are also endowed with dispositions show.
sing much variety. This IL q mistake, as
anybody knows who takes "tcaslng
spiders" A correspondent c0nfesses that
members OF the family have very different
methods of treating the attacks OF an
enemy. II q small piece OF leaf be thrown
into nice ncwly.made web, II appears
that one spider with hasty temper will
at once rush right 1t the object and eject
1t, thereby doing real damage to Its own
.fly-trap; another "of more reflective
turn Of mind" will come quietly short
distance, look at the obstruction for
minute, and then thoughtfully retire.
Some spiders, too, when found In the
centre OF their webs, will dart away and
hide, while others will remain where they
are, "trembling so as to violently shake
the web, these last are called "highly
nervous insects" by their historian; but 1t
may be, perhaps, open to some question
whether trembling Is not the result Of
anger quite as much as fear. Nervous
''ness is hardly the kind Of failing Of which
spider ought TO be rashly accused. He
never drinks tea, or sits up late, or sub
scribes TO circulating library, SO that we
have right to expect that his nerves will
bc In faultless condition. In any case,
be must show pity to flies before lie can
hope TO secure much sympathy from the
havoc which modern conditions OF life
may play with his nervous organization.

TWO LITTLE KNIGHTS.

There are two knights Of the ancient
and ilus,rious order Of the Golden Fleece
who are under ten years OF age. One Is
the nine car.old King OF Spain, while the
other Is the eight. year.Old Duke OF Brag.
anza, tho Crown Prince Of Portugal.
N Il seems that the King Of Spain Is a.
ways grand master Of the eight Spanish
orders of knighthood, the principal Of
which is that Of the Golden Fleece
T'olson dc Orc, as they call II In Spanish.
Two years ago the baby king. with due
poinp and ceremony, presented the dccora.
ton Of the order to his young cousin, the
Duke Of BraganM. The decoration con.
sists Of the royal arms, which includes,
besides Of the arms Of CASTLE, Leon,
Grenada and the lilies Of the royal house
OF Bourbon the arms Of Austria, Sicily,
Saxony ind Brahant. Surrounding the
whole is u representation Of the Golden
4 Fleece. with the motto, "Antc ferct guam
Yflamma inject" The order Is worn on
red and yellow ribbon, the national colors
of Spain.
Tie order of the Golden Fleece 10 one
OF the Oldest in existence, having been
founded in the fifteenth century, by Philip
the Good. Duke OF Burgundy, ut the City
Of Drugcs, as a compliment to that town,
no small portion Of whose prosperity
arose from its wooden trade.
Indeed, 30 prosperous had the city be-
come by this means, and such was the
magnihcence Of the Flemish court, that
no European monarch could equal or up
proach ii.
When the wife Of Philip the Fair Of
France visited Bruges she exclaimed:
"'Therc are hundreds here who have more
the air Of u queen than myself"
Ships OF every nation took In and dis
charged their cargOes ut the quays; the
warehouses were filed with bales OF wool
from England and with silk from Prussia,
/. and the argosies Of Genoa and Venice
"camc laden with the produce OF the east.
In founding on order. therefore, In this
city II seemed that u most suitable name
was the classical one OF the Golden Fleece;
no suggestive, too, as It Is Of chivalric aud
valOrous deeds.
The Arconautic feet as every boy and
girl who las studied mythology knows,
was made up Of band OF heroes com.
mandcd by Jason, who sailed In the good
ship Argo from Thessaly to the farther
shore Of the Black Sea In quest Of the
Golden Fleece, which was there guarded
by dragon In grove sacred to Mars.
CSblany and great were the dangers en-.
!, cOl,ntered on the way, and valor0us and
brave were the deeds of the members Of
the expedition before they finally reached
the dragon and Jason became master OF
the fleece.
