False Teeth that Grow.

A Russian dentist has at length solved
the problem of supplying US with false
teeth which will grow into the gums as
firmly as natural ones, says the Figaro
The teeth are made of gutta percha, por-
celain or metal, as the case may
be. At the root of the tooth holes are
made, and also in the jaw The tooth is
time a soft granulated growth finds its
way from the jaw into the holes of the
tooth. This growth gradually hardens,
and holds the tooth in position. 1t does
not matter in the least, according to this
enterprising Russian dentist, whether the
cavity in which the tooth is placed is one
from which a natural tooth has recently
been drawn or whether it has been healed
for months or even years.

Preserving Smoked Meat.

We have tried the following plan for
several years for keeping smoked meat
during spring and summer months, and
it is q complete success. Take a box
and cover the bottom with about two
inches of shelled corn, then put in a
layer of meat, then more corn to cover
meat, and so on until you have all your
meat packed in, and put cover on box.
The shelled corn should be run over fan
ming mill to remove all chaff. etc Set
box in dry, cool and dark place, and you
will find that the last piece in the latter
part of the season will be in as nice a
condition as when first put in.

The real reason OF the fall Of the Csbinet
was the failure Of the Canoyas Governments
to settle the Cuban difficulty. RESPONSE
tility for the safe conduct Of the Govern
Iaent now falls upon the Queen Regent,
whose dilemma Is distressing. Like the
majority OF her subjects, the Queen fully
comprehends that any change In policy and
Government must be dictated chiefly BY
colonial and international considerations.
Her Majesty knows beforehand that the
gravest significance win be attached g.
home and abroad to her decision. I
Cae Of two things she must do.
She may keep Senior Canovas as Premier
with his Conservative Cabinet, intact or
modified, and keep Gen. Weyler In Cuba to-
persevere in his present policy, with the.
ample means recently voted by the Cortes.;
Or she may call upon Senior Sagasta To-
form Liberal Cabinet, in which Senior
Moret probably would be Minister of;
Foreign Affairs, with opportunity 70 fof
low his well-known inclination to come
to an understanding with the United
States; Senior Mauca, the great home
ruler, Minister Of the Colonies; Marshal
Lopez Dominguez, War Minister; Spain,s
best fnancier, Senior Gamazo, Minister o.
Finance, and which Cabinet probably would
send Marshal Campos to Cuba with fuu
power to conciliate the insurgents and
loyalists by establishing more radical home
rule than Senior Canovas contemplated and,
thus disarm the United States.

senor J. Navarro Reverter, Spanish Mil
lister Of Finance, in the budget statement
to the Cortes, estimates the revenue at
sl7O, AIS, ,s02 and the expenditures at $685.
56,114.
In order to provide revenue to meet
the extraordinary budget the Minister OF
Finance proposes to raise loan with Alma
den quicksilver mines as security and e..
obtain navigation dues to the amount o.
twelve millions.
In order to meet the increased expendi.
lures and the ninety-two millions required
to meet the interest and for the redemp-
ton of the late loans guaranteed by the
customs, temporary surtax OF ten per
cent. on all taxes except land has been
proposed.
BY this means 1t Is expected that twenty
millions will be obtained. The Colonial
Department will contribute thirty-two
millions OF the balance and forty millions
will be raised by loan on the proposed
petroleum monopoly, giving the exclusive
privilege Of dealing in this product during
the next twenty years.
Should the Colonial Department be un-
able to pay its share Of the increased ex-
penditures 1t is calculated that portion
Of another loan can be obtained by
proposed monopoly on explosives.

With Spain VIII Not Be Changed. 8

VAeA SHe>>~~ s'~~~ >'~~ - ~------o ft,f "
WASHINGTON, D. G. (SpeciaD 0fieial
and diplomatic circles in Washington were
greatly interested in the news from Madrid
that the Canoyas Ministry has at last
fallen.
It is accepted as foregone conclusion
that Senior Sagasta, the great Liberal lead
er, will be called upon to form new Cab
met and to assume the responsibility Of unr3
dertaking the settlement Of the Cuban ques-,
tion, involved as It Is with possible comph-s
cations with the United States.
Secretary of State Sherman voiced what
undoubtedly is the general opinion when
he said that the relations between the Gov
ernment Of Spain and the United Statesi
would not be changed by the retirement Of
Canovas. ssH
The general opinion Of public men and
officials Is that any change in the Spanish
Government must make for peace, Its oc-i
curfence being directly consequent upon
the disastrous failure Of the attempt to-
keep Cuba by war. Canovas has submitted
a new scheme of home rule for Cuba so
liberal as to meet Secretary Sherman's ap-s
proval. Minister De Lome's recall from
Washington Is confidently expected. A
change of ministry probably would be-
urged by Spain as q reason for delay In
pending negotiations with America.
