Gladness Comes

With a better understanding of the
 w transient nature of the many phys ical ills, which vanish before proper eff forts-gentle efforts-pleasant efforts rightly directed. There is comfort in the knowledge, that so many forms Of sickness are not due to any actual dis. ease, but simply to a constipated condi. ton of the system, which the pleasant family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt ly removes. That is why it is the only remedy with millions of families, andis everywhere esteemed so highly by all who value good health. It's beneficial effects are due to the fact, that it is the one remedy which promotes internal cleanliness without facilitating tho organs on which it acts. It is therefore all important, in order to get its bcne- ficial effects, to note when you pur- chase, that you have the genuine arti- cle, which is manufactured by the Cali fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by all reputable druggists.
 If in the enjoyment of good health, and the system is regular, laxatives or other remedies are then not needed If afflicted with any actual disease, one may be commended to the most skillful physicians, but if in need of 8 laxative, one should have the best, and with tho well-informed everywhere, Syrup of Figs stands highest and is most largely used and gives most general satisfaction

Thus the palm of the right hand and
the back of the thumb of the left hand
will be toward the face. Hold firmly,
slide it between the teeth with Gid
ing motion; carry it we'll down be-
tween the necks of the teeth and the
free edges of the gums, but not in such
a manner as to wound the latter. the
pressure being properly brought
against the teeth, not against the
gums. Before sliding the silk from be-
tween the teeth, the silk may be rap
idly drawn backward and forward on
the necks of the teeth, thus polishing
and preserving these surfaces, and
"raking out" any deposits Of food or
incipient tartar which may be there.
The silk should be slid from between
the teeth with the same tension as
when it is introduced between them,
otherwise it will tear when the teeth are
very close together. II this rule be OBJ
served, and the silk still tears, it indi-
Gates one of several conditions: cav
ity of decay; a scale of tartar: or a
sharp point or jagged edge Of the tooth,
any of which conditions should be cor
-ected by a reliable dentist.

A Problem In Marriage.

Maud H. has been a reader of the
Ledger for many years, and says she
has found so much good advice in 1t
that she is constrained to come to it
for some counsel for herself. She
writes the following letter, which is
given as illustrating one of the strange
and unaccountable caprices Of the SEN
timent which We call love: Two years
ago 1 met my uncle for the first time
He was then about twenty-six. I was
sixteen. From that moment my
thoughts have been Of him. And he
also loves me. He is everything that
woman can desire in a man. I shall
never be happy unless l can marry him.
The marriage laws Of the state OF New
York allow me that privilege. but my
father objects. have to 60 to work
and make my own living. My uncle
says. Come to me. Be my wife: and
he can we'll afford to keep mo very
The Globe-republican., 1896-08-27

Slcely. Now. which would you advise
me to do-go to my uncle and live in
bliss. or remain single all my life and
be a common drudge?" Answer: This
situation is so unusual-indeed. in the
eyes of the world, SO unnatural-that
it can scarcely be judged by ordinary
standard. The opportunities for mar
riage must be limited indeed when near
relatives feel constrained to marry.
AS for living in bliss, this may be a
sadly mistaken estimate Of the case.
1t is one of the most stern and rugged
of facts that unnatural marriages are
not productive Of permanent happiness.
Marriages that have any element Of i'll
in them, or relations that must be con-
cealed, are almost certain, some day or
other, to bring sorrow to the contract
ing parties. Life without each other
probably seems just now not to be
worth the living: but give moments
sober second thought to the future.
Think how it would seem to be ostra-
of any community in which you might
live because Of your peculiar marriage
relation. Fancy being ignored in
every way, and ridiculed, possibly in
your hearing, certainly in your alb
sence, for there are great numbers of
excellen persons who would never rec
ognize those who had contracted a
marriage of this sort. Indeed, it would
not be called marriage by
many, even though the law
does not forbid it. There is
decided moral difference between the
thing allowed or permitted by law and
the thing which is not forbidden.
There is an unwritetn law which is far
stronger and more binding upon those
who abide by the spirit of the law than
any statute, and this spirit regards
such marriages as unsuitable and an
abomination. Therefore. for the sake
of your future happiness and the peace
of mind and self-respect, not only of

sommends itself SO highly as the use OF
piece Of silk thread. It will take the
average person some time to become
expert in handling it, but when this is
attained. it will be acknowledged the
best tooth-pick and beautifier of the
teeth in the world. Cut off from the
spool piece of silk about fifteen
inches long, which thoroughly wax.
With the thumb and forefngers carry
the waxed floss silk into each space be-
tween the teeth, the remaining three
fingers Of each hand being used to hold
on to the ends of the silk firmly. The
thumbs and forefingers of each hand as
they hold the silk should be kept but
very little further apart than the width
Of the teeth between which the silk is
to be passed. Thorough tension of the
silk must be kept up at all times. For
the eight teeth on the left side Of the
upper jaw, pass the silk over the end
OF the left-hand thumb, and over the
end Of the right-hand foreinger.
