PETER THE GREATS DENTISTRY.
But He Found that it was the Husbands
Cruelty.

But He Found that it WIS the Husbands
Cruelty.
There is story told of Peter the
Great in the character of a dentist which
strikes one as very characteristic of his
impulsive and high-handed ways. Peter
had studied dentistry, in common with
many other useful arts, and plumed
himself on his dexterity in drawing a
tooth, though one finds no record of
giving himself the trouble to stop one
Observing one of his Wallets de chambre
to be in bad spirits, he asked what was
the matter ian unexpected trait in
Peter, and was told that it was the
spectacle of his wife suffering from
toothache that so distressed him. "Why
doesn't she have it outy inquired the
Gar, beginning to feel the professional
instinct II can't persuade her, sire;
she always pretends not to suffer when
we wish to give her ease, but renews her
lamentations (Which distress me to hear)
when the dentist is dismissed" "Let
me see her." said the Gar, Il will cure
her." He9was introduced to her apart
ment, and. in spite of her protestations
Of there being nothing the matter. ex-
amined her mouth. Having satisfied
himself as to which was the peccant
molar, the Gar said to her husband:
Hold an instant" Then, in spite of
her cries, he extracted her tooth with
great address, and without the aid of
afterward that the whole affair was a
trick of the valet to torture his wife,
with whom he had quarreled, the Gar
beat him within an inch of his life-not
so much, it was shrewaly suspected,
on account of the deception practiced
upon him, as because it had caused him
to make an incorrect iagnosis.-London

The Sultan,s Daily Life.

A writer in the Fortnightly Review
gives some facts about the Sultan, whose
life, he says, is simple and arduous.
He rises at 6 o'clock and works with
his secretaries till noon, when he break
fasts After this he takes drive or a
row on the lake within his vast park.
When he returns he gives audiences.
At 8 o'clock he dimes. sometimes alone,
not infrequently in company with one of

evenings, he plays duets on the piano
with his younger children: He is very
fond of light music, and his favorite
score is that of LA File de Nine.

European gentleman, always wearing a
frock coat, the breast of which, on great
occasions, is richly embroidered and blaz-

Turkish sovereign who has ever admit

After dinner the lady noticed a mouse.

with their lot and said: ooh, if we
could only be so beautiful that everyone
involuntarily turned to look at us as we
passed, then we would consider our lot
enviable." A man who overheard the
remark shrugged his shoulders and said:
Pretty women as a rule are bores,"
which, though consoling, was uncompli-
mentary. Give me the magnetic, ever
varying character that charms you with
grace of manner rather than with regu-
larity of feature. Beauty and pleasing
manners allied form a combination that
is well nigh irresistible. Yet the charm
of manner in even a plain person some
times carries her power of attraction
far beyond that of the sister who is alb
solutely and undeniably without flaw in
her physical makeup. Philadelphia

An amusing incident occurred in the
hearing of a collision case in the admit

and Trinity house assessors, says Lon

only one eye, got along quite SATISFACTORY

upon his evidence. The old tar got over
the first three or four questions safely,
but his wrath rose as the cross7examina-

tightly, he leaned over the rails of the
witness box and cried, II beg your par

The Value of Manner.

A modern thinker has said: "The only

that of manners, but it is worth all the

graces and amenities of life must al
ways be largely under the direction of
women, and these graces and amenities
are too strong a power to be ignored.
One sees women who may be intellectu-

charming manners give them social
power quite beyond their broader and
better educated sisters. And, after all,

it is a sphere so important that even
the virtues are not quite complete with

Beauty is a charm that every woman
desires and which few genuinely pos

ATE LIVE GOALS.
Little Girl Burns Her Mouth in a
Shocking Manner.

Shocking Manner.
The 4-year-old daughter of John Har-
vey of Vineland, n. j., attempted to
eat handful of hot Goals and was pain
fully injured. The child was alone in
the parlOr of the house at the time
The mother was busy in another portion
Of the house. In the parlor there was
an open-grate fire. No one knows ex-
actly what she did. The first thing the
mother knew was when the little one
screamed with pain. The mother rushed
into the parlor, to find the child with
ing on rug close to the fireplace. Mrs.
Harvey lifted the child from the floor,
and in doing SO noticed that the thumb
and two first fingers of her right hand
were badly burned. Thinking this was
the extent of the injuries, the mother
tried to assuage the pain of the little
one. Although prompt remedies were
applied the child continued to suffer.
Then, when she attempted to kiss the
child, the mother saw for the first time
that the little ones lips were burned.
She forced the mouth open and found
that the tongue and the roof of the
mouth were scared. A doctor was sum-
moned at once and relieved the child of
the pain, as far as possible, but the child
is still suffering. It was found, upon
examination, that the Goals which she
placed in her mouth had gone well down
into her throat and had burned her
tongue, gums and palate, and that the
stonsils were injured. The doctors who
attended the child think she will lose
the powers Of speech and taste, even if

Fish Cleaned the Vessel.

This strong fish story is youched for by
Capt. Corners of the schooner G. A.
White, which has just arrived at this
port. On her last voyage from Philadel-
phia to Boston she was followed through
the entire voyage by thousands Of hungry
sea bass. The foul condition of the YES
sells bottom, covered as it was with thou
sands of mussels, was what attracted the
hungry fish. Immense shoals of the fish
were first sighted off Cape Henlopen, and
they followed the vessel all the way to
her destination, the Grand Junction
wharf, Boston. When the schooner
neared Cape Cod the presence of the fish
was signaled to the fishermen of the
cape, who came off in all kinds of craft
and scooped the fish up by the hundreds
of bushels. Even this did not seem to
phase the fish at ell and when the vessel
reached her wharf another good haul was
made. 1t had been intended to dock the
vessel at Boston, but when she got there
it was found that every particle of for
eign matter had been stripped off by the
greedy fish and docking was unnecessary.

June %, 1881" There is another inter
esting one, the simple word, Jane" with
the arms beneath. This refers to Lady
Jane Grey, but as she never occupied
that room it is supposed to have been
cut by her husband, Lord Guildford
Dudley or one of his brothers. In the
inner court, opposite Beauchamp tower
we saw the site of the scaffold for pri-
vate executions. 1t is marked by large
square stone pavement in the gravel of
the courtyard and small square slab
in the center marks the exact spot where
Queen Anne Boleyn, Queen Catharine
Howard and Lady Jane Grey were be-
headed. 1t was well for England that
Princess Elizabeth did not share the
fate of her innocent mother, which she
barely escaped in the hands of her sister
Mary, the royal butcheress. The years
of Mary's reign would not have been a
blot on the history of England had Lady
Jane Grey lived and reigned, for how
could so beautiful character make
other than a wise Queen?
In the outer court, opposite the en-
trance to the inner one is the Traitor s
gate, wide, low, arched gate through
which Princess Elizabeth passed when
Mary sent her to the tower. She sat
down on stone in the chilling rain and
refused to go in, saying, Better to sit
here than in a worse place." but when
she came again, it was preliminary to
her own coronation.
Tower Green, opposite the tower,
where executions generally took place, is
now a park The site of the scaffold is
marked by square stone pavement like
that of the private execution place oppo-
site Beauchamp tower Some centuries
ago the custodians Of the tower were
dubbed "beef-eaters" because they were
assigned portions of beef when that diet
was very cheap. Their successors still
continue to bear the name, and wear the
old quaint dress. Few buildings have
| been as closely connected with the sad
phase of English history, yet amid the
crowd of curiosity seekers always surg
| ing through it, it is difficult to recall the
sad scenes enacted there.

The Color Question at sorosis.

Sorosis has been discussing, from an
aesthetic and hygienic standpoint, how
we shall decorate our homes. Miss
Poole, who read an elaborate paper on
the subject, said:
'Colors have definite effect on the
health and spirits / remember once
spending a few days in room which
was papered with dismal paper Of in
tense blue and white, which in short
time reduced me to such state of the
blues that / warned my landlady that
it must be changed or she would have a
suicide on her hands. Yellow is cheer
full, and is a good color to use in a room
which has not much sunlight. In deco
ration, one should always avoid the
primary colors; dull gray, green's and
gray-blues are better. Also, it is well
to avoid absolute truth to nature, unless
one has the fortune of Vanderbilt or
Astor, so one can make a change when
the unconventionalized forms grow tire
some' Miss Poole made "a special plea,
from the sanitary point of view, for rugs,
thin hangings and plain woodwork.

A STRANGE BEDFELLOW.
Unusual Experience Of a Family Living in
DugOut.

A. r. Goodwin tells of rather an
amusing incident, but what might have
proved a serious accident which oc-
CURED near the Lincoln county line.
Aaron Woody, with his family, lives in
a small dugout near Barnard, and one
night last week Sam Whites cattle
broke out and one of the steers weigh
ing about 1900 pounds wandered onto
the roof Of the dugout and went directly
over the bed occupied by Mr.. and Mrs.
Woody. He went, like McGinty, to the
bottom, striking the bed, but fortunate
" he fell across the headboard and not
directly on the sleeping occupants. Mr..
Woody finally got the steer off and
looked after the injuries of his wife and
child. The latter he at first thought had
been killed, and doctor was sent for,
but it speedily recovered and no seri-
Gus injury except terrific scare result
ed from the accident. This is a great
country, where cattle wander on top
of the houses and fall in on people while
they are asleep.-Minneapoli Messenger.

Mrs Peary, wife of the famous Arc

advertisements are painted. By an in

revolve slowly, and as the wagon pro-
ceeds, gong strikes at short intervals

The Conditions of Healthful Living.

In the first place, it is quite evident
that due regard for the welfare of the
body does not permit one to eat full
meal Immediately following hard labor,
either physical or mental. The vital
energy has become depleted and needs
a period of rest, during which it can
gather it's scattered powers and prepare
them for exertion in new direction;
because the labor of digestion is labor,
just as muchsas that OF digging trench
or plotting novel, though In different
way.
The exhausted housewife y no drops in
her chair at the dinner table after hav-
ing prepared food for big family, de-
claring that she is "tOo tired to eat,
states in non-technical phrase truth
which students of the science of nutrition
have long recognized. A suitable period
of rest should intervene before any solid
food is taken into the stomach. The mid
dle-aged person who feels an unaccount-
able ''drowsiness" soon after dinner
should recognize that it is the demand,
becoming imperative, of nature calling
for the opportunity to do its work. of d.
gestion in proper manner. All of the
energies are required for the processes

pose which will aid the natural processes.
Observe yonder group of laborers upon
the public highway. They have never
received technical education, but an in
tuitive sense directs their movements.
Their dinner is at hand, awaiting their
attack in row Of tin dinner pals; but
they have an hour for the meal, which
can easily be dispatched in a fourth of
the time. They throw themselves upon
the grass by the roadside, resting for
few minutes-perhaps INDUCING in some
light sport or ''horse-play." Then the
meal is taken, and the remaining half
hour is given to a post-prandial rest.
These men simply realize that they feel
better by dining in this way; and though
their meal is far from attractive in it's
composition, yet it gives them health and
strength. with plenty of Drawn and
