ToothIess New England YilinrDrs

There Is many New England vii.
iage IN which you will hardly find a
natural tooth, said dental surgeon.
THAT IS to say, not an adult inhabi.
tant will possess any teeth of his own.
All OF the grownup people wear false
teeth.
This rather odd state OF affairs is
due the operations of certain unscru.
pulous persons who about the country
with false teeth for sale. One of these
fellows will 60 through a village and
literally pull every tooth IN the place.
To take the places of the teeth ex-
tracted he offers artificial sets at SO.
''In rural parts, for obvious rea-
sons, people very commonly suffer
from toothache. The malady is dis
tressing, and the customary way to
get rid of it is to have the tooth
drawn. No dentist is at hand TO re.
store the afflicted grinder to a healthy
condition by filling. The peripntetic
quack comes along with his forceps
and offers TO give final and permanent
relief from all such suffering in fu-
turc.
For the small sum Of 50 he will re.
move all the natural teeth from tho
customers head and substitute for
them an artificial set of much better
appearance, which will never cause
my pain TO the wearer. BY this at
tractiye offer the people are dcluded
into parting with the chewing npara-
tus with which nature has furnished
them, and the result is toothless
population. Tooth pulling is rarely
rcsorted TO 10y good dentist. mas
much rs it must be an extraordinarily
bud tooth that cannot be fixed MP SO
as to be better than any false one. -

Scenes i'm Korea,

Tho first thing that strikes visitor
to Korean village is the surprising
subpopulatiou of dogs. Every house
seems to possess n pack of these sririt
less ours, which are II gray variety of
the Chinese chowdog. They display
more than passing interest in n
European traveller, and free use of
ones stick is necessary to keep them
ut bay. On investigation one dis
covers that they form the staple article
of diet of the population. Unlike
most Asiatic races, the Koreans are
meat enters, md the dogs, being
always mt hand, afford the necessary
food with the minimum of exertion
and expense. Another curious fea-
ture of the Korean diet is the total
absence OF tea, the almost universal
beverage of Eastern Asia.
Frequently one sees n Korean forag-
ing for the evening meal. The method
is simple, though unpleasant. He is
armed with "A short pole, to the end of
which IS attached n moose. This he
throws over the head of the nearest
dog, and then proceeds TO screw the
pole round till the moose tightens, and
slowly throttles the dog, who is mean
while prevented from getting to close
quarters with its butcher by thrusts
of theEpole.
The country is much infested by
the great long-coated Monaghan tiger.
This magnificent animal, though
considerable source of revenue on &C
count of its valuable skin, is never
theless much dreaded by the natives
so serious are the ravages committed
by them that the King was forced to
organize regiment of ''Royal Tiger
Hunters" and these constitute the
corps d'elite of the Korean army.
Travelling in Korea can hardly be
described rs luxurious. The Korean
is not lavish of home comforts for
himself, and he certainly provides a
minimum of the same for the travel
ing foreigner. The average Korean
hotel compares unfavorably with
modern pig-sty, and one has to sleep
as best one can in the midst of sur.
prising dirt, colony of cattle or
fowls, and other things which shall
be nameless.

The Power OF q CYCLONE.

Careful estimates OF the force OF
cyclone, and the energy required to
keep a full-fedged hurricane in active
operation, reveal the presence of q
power that makes the mightiest efforts
of man appear as nothing in compari-
son. \ force fully equal to four hun
dred and sevcnty-three million horse
power was estimated as developed in
West Indian cyclone. This is about
fifteen times the power that is Great
able by all the means within the range
OF mans capabilities during the same
time. Steam, water, windmills and
the strength Of all men and all ami.
mails combined cannot approach the
tremendous force exerted by this
storm. The scientist tells us that the
force comes from the latent heat of
vapor which rises in the center OF the
hurricane and is there condensed.
The fury Of the whirlwind literally
wrings the rain from the clouds.
There Is always n much greater area
covered by the wind than that en-
braced by the rainfall that usually &C
companies the cyclone. Persons with
vivid imaginations are fond of con.
occurring and specializing on inven.
tons by which rainfalls are produced
at the pleasure of the rain-makers.

show how puny arc the efforts of man.

HEREDITY,

Your structures are unmerited,
Our follies are inherited.
Directly from our grap'pas they all came.
Our defects have been transmitted,
And we should be acquitted
ofan responsibility and blame.
We are not depraved beginners,
But hereditary sinners,
For our fathers never acted rs thoy
should;
'Tis the folly OF our gram'pas
That continually hampers
What a pity that our grampas weren't
good
Yes, we'd all be reverend senator's,
II our depraved progenitors
Had all been prudent, studlous, and wise;
But they were quiet terrestrial,
Or we would be celestial
Yes, we'd all be proper tenants for tho
skies
II wore not all blameless sages,
And beacons TO tho ages,
And nj for princlpalities and powers;
II we do not guide and man It,
And engineer the planet
IT'S the folly OF our forefathers not ours.

Is constructed on a principle some

the kitchen range is utilized in the

The attention Of many scientific men
has long been engaged In trying TO
devise some sort of apparatus for en-
ploying the suns rays as fuel.
Alcohol is an ideal fuel. 1t gives
great heat and its combustion is per-
feet, without smoke or other solid
residuum. In burning it resolves
itself into water and carbonic acid
gas. OF course, it is too expensive
Tor common use, but chemistry may
yet discover n way of producing it at
small fraction of its present cost
Some machinery is already run by
chemicals without fire. Nature un-
derstands this. The human body is n
macine run by chemical energy. Sui
phate Of magnesia has been employed
for running engines. Cans are filed
with this compound and heated. In
cooling and crystallizing it gives off
heat.
Peat is used as fuel in some parts of
this country, but only to n small ex-
tent. 1t is so employed on the Island
of Nantucket, where there if n bog.
Attempts to press and prepare this
material economically for market
have not been successful in the United
States, though the industry is extern
sively carried on in Europe. Wash

She smoothed her bands OF glossy hair,
And innocently wondered il
Her bonnet did not make her fair
Then sternly child her foolish heart for har-
boring such fanciss there.
So square She tied the satin strings,
And set the bows beneath her chin:
Then smiled TO see how sweet she looked;
Then thought her vanity sin.
Aud she must put her thoughts away before
the sermon should begin.

Demurcly in her fathers pew
She thought about her bonnet still
Yes, all the parsons sermon throush,
About its pretty bows an buds. which bet

Yet sitting there. with peaceful face,

And maybe was one on the whole
