Teeth Reading.

According to the London Telegraph
teeth reading is the latest fad. The
"science" is only IN its infancy yet, but
the following are two or three OF the
items which its professors assert to be
ipcontrovertible: "Teeth that are long
and narrow denote vanity; projectors
indicate q erasping disposition; treach-
cry is best known by small, white, sepa-
rated molars; Inconsistency by overlap
ping teeth, and the possessor OF wide
separated worries is sure TO tell all he
knows. Those who wem false ones pos
scss character that the science cannot
read. "

They stepped TO the edge Of the side
walk and looked long aud earnestly in
the direction of the cornice of one OF
the big buildings. OF course under the
circumstances the man who had been
standing in the doorway felt impellod
to join them. He could not SEQ anything
extraordinary at the top of the building,
but he kept his eyes upturped because
they did.
A man who was hurrying along saw
the three, and he at once forgot where
he was going and what he had to do.

Four men who were passing saw the

before they had fairly fixed their gaze
upon the cornice three others joined
them.
"You may be right" returned tho
companion of the man who had first
spoken, "but You said 20, you know"
Six more people, including two wom-
en-, were now straining their eyes to see
what was wrong with the cornice, and
a rumor was in circulation that some
one had tried to throw q child out OF
one of the windows. This was promptly
denied by the man who knows it all ano

The regular semi-annual conference OF

l. to compare notes on the missi nary
work being done by the different churches
and To 50 arrange aud accommodate I ne
plans Of each as to make the work al MI
most effective. When there happens to
be two small places close together and
one denomination has succeeded in or
ganziDg n church in one of them it Is
believed better to leave the field in both
to that church, which may then become
quickly seli-supporting, rather than for
another denomination to go in with the
result OF having two or more weak,
struggling churches.
This plan OF comforting together has
been found to economic in the matter OF
appropriations for missionary work and

more liberal and broad thinking men, the

The Pennsylvania Railroad Goes
10 the Front and Gives US First

The citizens If Frederick cannot tut
show their appreciation 10 the present
management Of the Pennsylvania
Railroad, which has inaugurated IN
this city fast trains 10 Baltimore.
For years our people have suffered
from the p or raj road facilities which
both roads have inflicted upon
Frederick. Nothing has tended TO re-
tard the growth of our city more than
the poor railroad communications
We have had with Baltimore, Wash
ington, Philadelphia and New York.
The beautiful country around Fred
erick affording every facility to those
seeking pure air, lovely mountain seen
cry and the finest roads in the Union,
has all Leen kept backward by the poor
railroad accommodations we have been
granted by the two principal roads of
the country, which enter our city. The
Pennsylvania, under the new manage
ment of the Frederick and Pennsyl-
vania, has placed two :. lendid trains
between Frederick and Baltimo re, and
at the same time given US first class
accommodations with New York and
Philadelphia. The ride to Baltimore
over the Pennsylvania and Western
Maryland Railroad is OF of the most

Beautiful Summer Homes viii
Come If a Wise Policy is Pur-
sued.

If we are TO have boom in building
sites along the Catoctin. the first ele-
nent of suceess in that direStion is to
make things desirable-mske things
cheap. The lands along the noun
tains, as well as along the route OF the
elevated road, have never been held at
such rates as would deter persons from
taking them on account of the price
asked. Now that there are additional
facilities afforded by the railroad, il
might be but natural that an advance
should be asked for lands that have
heretofore had but little market value.
Do not. however, Kill off the possibil-
tiles of Improvements by asking alb
suTd prices for lands or for building
sites. Every assistance and publicity
viii cheerfully be given regarding the
desirable points on our mountains if We
find disposition TO deal fsirly with
prospe Give purchasers. Of course. we
do not propose 10 regulate the price of
other peoples property. but we GER

remains with the promoters of the

the affair will be a success, or, whether
il will demonstrate that our people are
rot equal TO opportunities, even when
presented. We have Baltimore, Wash

and with first class railroad accommo-
dations, We shall know no such word

The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
gets Into Line.

The Baltimore and Ohio, not to
be outdone by the. Pennsylvania, at last
gives US a two-hour train to Baltimore.
With what delight will this change be
hailed by our people. Who will not
recall the long tedious waits for some
old freight train to move out of the
way? How they will recollect the time
when it took US three hours to run to
Baltimore over sixty miles of road.
How the entire day was almost con-
sumed on the road and how we would
get back tired and WORKOUT to our
homes. Now under the new and pro-
progressive management of the Balti-
more and Ohio, old Frederick is look
ing up and our people now will be
able to invite friend occasionally to
run UP and see US without the certainty
of hearing Frederick and the Baltimore
and Ohio consigned to the bow-wows.
Thanks, gentlemen; now look after ex
cursions to Frederick aud Braddock
Heights.
