sistently, till at last any duties involving
public speaking became most irksome. In
ordinary conversation 1t was only occasions
ally noticeable, while singing could be peri
formed without inconvenience. The patient
described the effort to speak as being most
distressing, as, though articulation pro-
ceeded, he was unable to produce any sound
for an interval varying from one to two min
utes. A careful examination with the laryn-
goscope revealed no abnormality Of any kind
and the general health appeared perfect.
After every treatment that was thought
likely to be eflcacious had been tried the aid
Of electricity was resorted to. The constant
current was used for from fifteen TO twenty
minutes every day for a fortnight, after
which progress was so favorable that the
treatment was given only three times weekly.
Sponge electrodes were placed first on citizen
sid OF the larynX. and later in each sitting
the anodal electrode was held over the
larynX and the cathodal sponge on the back
of the neck. The strength of the current
used varied from two to three milliamperes
and the case was treated for nearly six
weeks, Improvement becoming more and
more marked. 1t ended In the disappear
ance OF the patients malady. The physician
who conducted the treatment says that in
neuralgia cases he frequently obtains the
best results from the constant current. tho

10 desired to remove or to operate on in
any way. On either side of the tooth, or on
one side of the tooth and outside OF the
cheek are electrodes, which are connected
to an "adapter," a newly designed machine
for administering electric current in very
minute quantities. Formerly, the difficulty
was to give the current to a sensitive pa
tient without shocking. Now, the current
can be given so gradually that the patient
Is hardly conscious of 1t, and in from -FOUR
to five minutes the tooth to be operated
upon is so benumbed that 1t can be exca-
waited, filed, or even taken out without the
slightest pain to the patient. This epoch
making and benehcent discovery has proved
such a source of stimulation to the dental
profession that quite a number OF beauti-
full adaptations of electricity to, dentistry
have recently appeared. One OF these Is the
use OF the sinusoidal current. which. unlike
the current ordinarily used, has soft, wave
like impulses, which are restful and refresh
ing. Dentists, find this current a great help
to them. as most patients who are under lts
soothing influence will face any ordinary
operation with but little fear or nervous
ness. Severe hemorrhage OF the gums after
an extraction is now stopped by the april
cation Of the negative pole OF a galvanic cur
rent, which causes instant coagulation. New
developments in the implantation and trans
plantation OF teeth by electricity are now
being perfected by some progressive members
of the profession, while others are deyoting

pRATTLn OF THE YOUNGSTERS.

In wrath and tears Edith Hewlett had

had been tucked in once, given a drink
twice, kissed good night three times and
the lamp had been extinguished, but the
spark of rebellion still burned in her childish
soul.
Mamma she cried.

You've had two drinks already. Now go

There was a brief silence and then Edith
tried again.
Mamma. come and kiss me good night
you've been kissed good night, dear, and
l shall not core in again, SO go to sleep at
dice like a good girl"
There was another pause, while the lonely
child cudgeled her little brain for a new
expedient. BE-.
Mamma" she cried at last. please come
in: I'm so hungry"
you cannot have anything to eat tonight,
and IL I come in there again. the mother
said, with rising choler, at will be to give
you a good spanking"
There was a longer pause and just as it
began to look as If the evenings battle were
over the child's voice was heard again:
Mamma she pleaded. I'm SO lonely in
here. Please come in and spank me!'
A society young man of this city, relates
the Rochester Chronicle, was entertained al
cards the other evening in a manner which
he will not soon forget. During the eveninf

The juvenile brain was at work some sec

The mill goes toilinp s'ow,y round,
With steady and solem creek,
And my little one hears In the kindly sound
The voice of the old mill speak,.
While round and round those big white

Grin,ly and ghostllke creep,
MY little one hears that the old mill sings:

Shaggy old Fritz, in s!umber sound,
Means of the stony mart;
Tomorrow how proudly he'll trot you
Hitched to our new milk cart!
Aid you shall help me blanket the kline.
And fold the gentle sheep,
And set the herring a-soak In brine;
But, now. little tulip, s'eep.
A Dream-One comes to button the eyes
That YEARLY droop and blink.
While. the old mill buffets the frownine

And scolds at the stars that wink,

And, rocking your cradle, she softly sings:

they are appropriate to the occasion, and
well recited. Snappy little anecdotes. If
they are quite brief, are appropriate, but it

THE UNDERGROUND TROLLEY.
The underground electric trolley road, op-
Grated on Ninth street, in Washington, by
the Metropolitan Railroad company, which
was opened last July, has proved so salts
factory that thirteen and one-half miles of
road on a more important street are being
equipped with the same system. The track
is much like that for cable roads. There 10
a concrete conduit between the rails, in
which are placed conductors having the
same function as the trolley wire Of the
overhead line construction. A plate having
shoes which press lightly against the con.
ductors projects from the csr into the con-
duit and serves the same purpose as a troll
ley pole and wheel In the usual form Of
electric car. In such a road II Is, OF course,
particularly necessary to keep the !nsula-
tion OF the conductors as perfect as posi-
BILE, and for this purpose some special APP
paratus has been set up In the power house,
which otherwise contains only common
types OF steam and electric machinery. At
the present time there are twenty-six trains
In daily service on the line, each train con-
sisting of a motor car and a trailer. The
operating expenses during the month OF
| November amounted to Az cents per car
mile, which sum includes salaries. wages, re-
| pairs, power, maintenance Of way, lighting,
repairs to building and a small amount for
sundires, but excludes taxes, accidents and
insurance. When the road was started up
there we're a number OF Interruptions Of
service, such as are common to all new
roads. but there has been no accident to
diminish the faith OF the engineers in the
serviceability of the system. 1t has not been
severely tried by snow yet, but it has been
shown repeatedly that the operation Of the
road does not have to be suspended by the
complete flooding Of comparatively long
sections OF the conduit. 1t was believed for
merly that such floods would stop the run
ming OF the cars entirely. but thcy nave
