The Suez canal represents at present a clear profit income of over 1, 100000 a year, and this, too, means saving to the commerce between east and west of over e2,0o0,000 year. Its political and military value is somewhat problemat- ical, since the sinking of single ship or dredger would render it impossible.

coMFoRTING THE coMFoRTLEss

1t was gracious act ON the part of the
Wonai,s Christian Temperance Union to
send a committee to- the almshouse
and bring to the wretched inmates
not only words of cheer. but flowers aud
other kindly gifts. There lay in that act
the true spirit OF the teachings of the
Christ: Whatsoever you do unto the least
OF these, my brethren, even that YOU do
unto Me- OsteDtatious offerings do not
always betoken truly charitable feeling.
A kind word spoken at the right moment;
simple. kindly act done Just ut the right
what passes current under the name of
charity. Nor is it necessary to go ..slun-
ming to find misery to be relieved; pain
10 be assuaged; want to be provided for.
The poor are not only always with US, but
around us, and if we but look they cannot
escape our attention.
To the inmates OF the alinshouse the COM
ing OF these good women must have been
as tbe-visitation of angels Of mercy. Their
lives are one unccasing round OF wretch
edness aud hopelessDess, and but little light
falls into their lives to tighten up the
gloom of their fate The kindness of the
women OF the W. c. r. o. will be to them
like sweet song. whose harmony fingers in
the memory even rter the voice that gave
it forth is hushcd, and the remembrance of
this visit will comfort them for many q

PRIDE IN BIG CALVES.
Increase of Cycling Has Injured the
Clothing Trade.

Charles P. Reicbere, president of the
United Garment Workers, who has just
returned from Western trip. declares
that there is great depression in the
clothing trade throughout the country.
due TO the great number of bicycle riders
who wear knee trousers.
According to the doctors. mems legs
are becoming less scrawny with the use
of the bicycle. and, as the masculine
clement is proud of a bulgmg calf. there
is 10 doubt but that knee breeches will
in time supersede tile hideous trousers.
What's SO rare as day in June, and
what so brave as pair OF shapciy calves!
A few years ago a feeble attempt at the
renaissance in respect to full dress was
made by the young swells of the uptowH
clubs. but it failed dismally. There was
reason for the failure in the ridiculously
attenuateL legs which the proposed return
TO knicserbockers would have disclosed.
But bicycles now have worked a change.
Mr.. Rcichers says:
The cheap and shoddy bicycle suits
will soon go and will give way to rich
and fanciful costumes. Many manufac-
turers are thinking seriously OF putting
large quantities of knee breeches on the
ma rkct next season to take the place of
the unsightly and unserviceable trousers
now worn"

THOUGHT HURTS TEETH.
Brain Workers Have Moro Trouble
With MOiars Than Day LabOrers.
Es,r Y1,-E World

With MOMrB Tnan LAY LaDOreTs.
Ne,o York World
A prominent New York dentist made the
statement the other day. which he said
was backed by the highest scientific au-
thority, that intellectual pursuits play
havoc with the teeth, and that the more
man tolls with bis brain the more likely
are his teeth to disappear or to become
diseased before he reaches middle life.
The reason why people in this country
have poorer teeth than these OF any other
country in the world is because they live
at the highest possible pitch or nervous
pressure. Savage races generally have
teeth superior to those OF civilized races.
There are many unusual occupations. tco,
that have a bad effect upon the teeth.
Quicksilver miners, blea cheers who use
chloride Of lime. people employed in soda
factories, are some Of those who suffer.
But the most harmful trade OF all, not
only in its effect upon the general health,
but also upon the teeth. is that OF making
matches. The phosphorous used in their
manufacture affects in some way the health
of the teeth Of those who handle IL.
Artificial teeth are made Of all sorts OF
strange substa Dces nowada ys, but probably
the most curious Of a II ma terials used for this
purpose is compressed paper. A dentist in
Germany has been making them in this way
for many years past. False teeth were
never SO cheap as they are today and at the
same time never so dear. They can be
purchased as low as So set, or they may
cost as high as 81 500. There are ex-
pensive doctors, and il is not an uncommon
thing for $500 to be paid for a new outfit OF
molars.
When it comes to expensive teeth-or,
rather, an expensive tooth-probably the
costliest and most highly priced in the world
is that of a sacred monkey. 1t is in one of
the temples of Siam, preserved in q gold
box. The value the natives put upon it may
be judged by the fact that they paid S3,-
$50 900 TO Portugal for its ransom when
the fortunes OF war place it ip the pos
session OF that ma ton. The Cingalese also
venerate as sacred monkeys molar. while
the people OF Malab bar worship one Of an
elephants grinders. In the Tonga Islands
tooth from sharks jaw Is regarded with
great reverence, and in India the faithful
adorea tooth that is said to have been once
in active service iD the mouth OF Buddha
himself.
Tie first dentist, In fact. must have lived
long before Buddha. At any rate, there
were dentists In plenty in Egypt and Greece
500 years B. c., who used gold for filling
teeth. and golden wire fer fixing artificial
ones. Gold has even been discovered in
the teeth of mumnles known to be many
thousands of years old.

"One of the most eccentric visitors to this

"Theofficer wbopointedhcr outtome said
that she was English, and that her friends
had made many unsuccessful attempts to
keep her ashore. Apparently she has money
of her own, and in order to throw her rcla-
tives off the track She books her passage
under different name on every trip. She
enjoys the sea, and the Lucania Is her
special fad. She makes very few acqraint-
ances and L don't believe that any OF the
officers know much about her history.
when she reaches New York she knows
that her relatives can't bother her, and she
goes ashore and waits for the ships sailing

of the Lucania now to find after they had
pulled ont OF port that this mysterious
woman wus not on board. ~
