forts-gentle efforts-pleasant efforts

the knowledge, that so many forms OF
sickness are not due TO any actual dis
ease, but simply TO a constipated condi''
tion of the system, which the pleasant

Dental Dangers.

Dentists are always warning their
customers that frequent brushing of the
teeth is absolutely necessary TO guard
them from decay, that the particles OF
food which lodge between the teeth
must be removed after each meal, and
that the mouth must be thoroughly
rinsed, after taking anything acid into
it, under penalty Of, the loss of teeth.
And yet another danger confronts one.
A pretty young girl lately was obliged
to visit her dentist who, after investi-
eating the condition Of her mouth, told
her that she was troubled with shrink
age Of the gums and loosening Of the
teeth, and that in ten years time she
would find that they would all drop
out He added that this was the result
of too much and too hard brushing Of
the teeth.
This peculiar mouth affection, what
ever may cause it, is not so uncommon
but that the writer has known of some
half dozen friends who have been
obliged to wear false teeth from no 9TH
er disease than this very alarming one.

Kentucky's Names.

Kentucky is known as the Corn Crack.
or State, from game bird enjoying the
same name which was formerly found
in great abundance in most parts of the
state. 1t is also called the Blue Grass
State, from the belt of land running
through the center in which this variety
of grass grows to great perfection. In
the early days of our history it was
known as the Dark and Bloody Ground,
being so termed by the Indians. 1t was
then debatable land between the In.
dians living north Of the Ohio and those
living in the mountains Of Tennessee
and Georgia, sort of battle-ground for
these tribes, which fact gave it the

of a certain species Of Persian cat, SO
fine and elastic that a single hair of the

and yet is so fine and elastic that it is
possible to compress it into large cof-

Cape Colony Assembly Adopts Report on
Johannesburg Raid.
CAPETowN, July 25.-The house Of as
sembly has unanimously adopted the re-
port of the select committee on the sub.
ject of the Jameson raid on Johannes
burg. The report finds that Cecil Rhodes,
who at the time was premier of Cape Col
ony, was fully acquainted with the prepa-
rations for the raid, and that Alfred
Belt director Of the British South
Africa company, DR. Jameson and DR..
Rutherford Harris, also a director Of the
British South African company, were ac-
tive promoters Of the raid. The report
further declares that there Is no evidence
that Mr.. Rhodes intended that the Pit
sana force should invade the Transvaal
unlimited. but that at the same time
there was an absence of any peremptory
command from Mr. Rhodes forbidding the
raid Rhodes and Harris, IL Is alleged,
drafted q telegram containing such pro-
hibitory demand, but the message was
never dispatched.
With these facts In view, the report
says, the committee cannot acquit Mr.
Rhodes Of responsibility. The report fur
ther alleged that all the funds for the raid
were contributed by the British South
Africa company and with the knowledge
of the London office, money being after
ward refunded by Mr.. Rhodes. In closing
the committee says that ii Is forced to the
conclusion that the conduct of Mr.. Rhodes
was not consistent with his duty as pre-
mier Of Cape Colony.
