Dentistry Without Pain.

I have at last solved the problem of
preparing teeth for filling with no
pain. This is done by the recently
discovered electric instrument which
is simple, scientific and painless, and
is applied to the tooth with no dis
comfort to patient, but allows me to
cut out the cavity, or remove the
nerve, without least pain. As you
know, I also extract teeth without
pain.
My Bossier friends and patients
will find me at the same stand.

KING TOMMY'S RISE AND FALL.

ella Wheeler Wilcox)
Tommy was ruled by his father and mother,
Tommy was bossed by his older brother,
Tommy was tyrannized over each hour
By a very small maid with the face Of
flower,
But one day Tommy was given wheel
And he felt like a king on throne of steel
Now sudden rise from a serf to king
Has always proven dangerous thing.
The people who come into power too quick
Go up like rocket and down like a stick.
King Tom, before the first day was done,
Was emperor, sultan and car in one
He owned the pavement, he owned the street
He ran the officers off their beat,
He frightened the coachmen out of their wits
AS he scorched right under their horses bits.
Pedestrians fed when they saw him ap-
proach,
He caused disaster to carriage and coach;
For he never turned out and his pace never
slowed;
His bell was signal to clear the road;
And I would repeat, indeed, not I,
What the truckman said when his bike went
by.
grin,
Proud of his power to make them sin.
And boder and brIder each day he grew,
And faster and faster his bicycle flew;
And he was certain he owned the earth.
And all that was on 1t from girth to grth.
And he always got off without hurt or
scratch
Till all of a sudden he met his match
Reigning one time in his usual splendor.
He came face to face with a cable fender.
He rang his bell for the right Of way
But a biker may ring till his hair turns gray
And a Cable Car or its Cousin Trolley
VIII pay no heed to that sort Of folly
All that King Tom recalls Of that day
Was riding into the milky way,
Where he all the stars In the heavens
Well,
There isn't much more of his reign to tell.
He gave his wheel to his brother Bill
And walks on two clutches and always will,
And he says as he looks at his wooden Leg
Il went up like rocket and down like q

WORDS TWENTY FEET LONG,
Examination OF the Sounds Register
ed on q PhOnOgraph.

An instrument was recently exhibit
ed at the Royal Society of Edinburgh
by which the minute marks on a pho
nograph cylinder produced by music
or speech were multiplied about 1000
times, so that the form Of each vibra-
tor and the number of vibrations for
any given sound could be seen. Lit
tie waves, each wave being a vibra-
ton, were recorded on a long ribbon
Of paper, says a writer in the ST. Louis
GlObe-Democrat.
The inventor accomplished this by
taking advantage of the principal of
Lord Kelvin's siphon recorder. In max
ing an observation the phonograph
cylinder was moved about 1000 times
slower than when it gave out the
sound, and the vibrations occurring
in half a second of time were spread
along ribbon of paper twenty feet
in length, thus each vibration could be
seen. With regard to human speech.
an inspection of one Of these curves
proves that a word such as "Constan-
tinople," or, indeed. any other word,
was simply collection Of musical or
other sounds running rapidly into each
other.
The musical sounds Of the yowels
predominated, but the so-called conso-
nants were often also musical sounds
more or less distinct. The word above

WAR SCARE HELPED WHEAT.
Times-HeraId's Opinion of Grain
Market Conditions.

Market Conditions.
CHICAGO, Feb. H.-The Times Herald in
fits review and forecast of the wheat market
tomorrow, will say:
The war scare did for wheat last week
about what was expected-added to it's price.
There an advance Of 312c and not much
reaction. The Englishmen kept rather in
different to the Cretan situation. which al
layed the anxiety of shorts this side; but
toward the close of the week even Liverpool
began to wake up to possible danger. Spec
ulators have grown incredulous Of European
war news. There have been enough ground
less alarms to make them so. The Mediter-
Tanean situation is. however, promising
for row any which has existed in years;
and it is likely to continue threatening
the present week it the last.
The effect Of the scare the specula-
tive situation has been to lessen the short
interest. Professionals, who operate in a
large way, have appreciated the peril of hav-
ing short lines out with such risk threat
enElg. The scalpers, the "spreaders" and the
so-called professionals everywhere have been
acting cautiously. But even when this sort
OF caution is EXTREMIST, there is still left
open short interest, which would not seem
erroneous If effort to cover had to be
crowded into single day. The worlds stocks
OF wheat are hedged at Chicago, enough Of
itself TO make huge interest. A war would
stir the markt. in spite of all the curtailment
which takes place.

Russian Nails Iron Shoes on the Feet
of His FaithIess Wife.

A terrible crime is reported from a Russian
village in the neighborhood Of Tomsk, where
blacksmith named TemeyakoH, in order
to cure his wife Of upfaithfuiness, had her
dragged to his forge, and after tying her up
shoes he had specially made for this purpose
The poor woman naturally tainted when the
iron nails were driven into her feet and
would have died had she not been rescued
by the villagers who simply contented them
selves with arresting her brutal husband
and then setting him at liberty after two
days Imprisonment. Unfaithfulness is eX-
tremely common among the peasantry of
Russia, and the village authorities in punish
ing the husband so lightly are evidently of
the opinion that the victim simply met with
her deserts.
