There is now strong probability
that the Warren team will play the
strong team of West Chester The
management Of the Wes. Chester team

ranged between the two teams. That
the Warren would draw well in West

reason the West Chester team wishes
20 arrange a couple OF games. The Of
fer from the West Chester team is that
the Warren go there on November 6 for
a guarantee Of S35 and West Chester
post a forfeit OF S35 to appear at Will

in the mountains of Montana The play

The managers, Moller & Fessler, have

tions. Many new and novel mechanical
effects are introduced and a carload OF
special scenery from the studios OF the
best scenic artists i'm New York will be
used Among other scenes will be one
showing Grants tomb, at Riverside OF
the Hudson, and a very realistic scene
OF an old wood fiume in the mountains

The Care Of Teeth.

10 brush the teeth thoroughly after
every meal is, on general principles,
supposed to be quite the correct thing,
and, unless cavities are discovered, all
that is necessary to keep them in good
condition. Even dentists sometimes go
no further than this, and, whether
from ignorance or the certainty that
such course will, in the long run,
Drlng them patients, many of them
give no further advice. Teeth frequent
ly decay in consequence OF acids gen.
Grated by particles Of food that have
become wedged in between the teeth.
All acids at once begin work on the
enamel OF the teeth, and soon make
tiny holes In it, or soften 1t so that 1t
wears away easily. When in this con-
dition 1t Is easy to see that a stiff
brush vigorously applied is anything
but judicious form OF treatment 1t
is important to clear the spaces be-
tween the teeth from all particles OF
food, and this can scarcely be done
with brush. no matter how thorough
ly and carefully 1t may be used. Spe-
cially prepared silk thread, called den
tai hoss, is excellent for this purpose,
but even this will not always sufYice.
One Of the best methods is to draw q
thin rubber band between the teeth
Spaces that will not admit dental floss
or the finest quill toothpick can be
cleared by the rubber which accom-
modates itself to all Irregularities, and
rarely cuts even on the sharp edges of
broken teeth. The teeth are subject
to many ills. more or less serious and
obstinate. Receding and absorption OF
the gun1s is one of the most hopeless
Of dinlculties. and II not { ken in time,
soon make the teeth loose, and they
fall out, having no gums to support
them. 1t is said that frequent applica-
tions of fine precipitated chalk to the
gums in the early stages OF this disease
will check it, and sometimes allow ma
ture to effect cure. Persons who are
troubled with acidity of the stomach.
that disagreeable state Of affairs when
"one's teeth are all on edge" will find
1t an excellent thing to rinse the
mouth and wash the teeth in water con-
tanning a few drops Of ammonia. This
is an alkali. and therefore neutralizes
the acid, removing by this means one
OF the most prolific sources Of disease
and putting the mouth in an agreeable
and wholesome condition.

was ever so large, but the secret lay in
the fact that it was a composite egg.
Two bags of flannel were made. one
round and the other oval, the round
one being much the smaller. Into the
round one was dropped at once the
yoiKs OF eight eggs, nearly filling the
nag. After the yolks were boiled hard
tney were left until cool, and then the
nannel was cut of. The whites Of the
eggs were put into the oval bag. and
the ball OF yolks carefully slipped in
to them. When the whites had
cooked and cooled the second bag was
cut away. Experimenting was neces-
sary to find the right size of the bags
for the number of eggs and the proper
tlonate size for the yolk alone and
the entire egg. 1t was another nice
point to allow for the second boiling
OF the yolks without getting them too
hard and to locate the yolks in the
middle of the whites. This was most
satisfactorily accomplished by putting
mar OF the whites into the bag, then
cropping in the yolks and finishing
with the rest of the whites. The
puoyancy OF the whites maintained the
position of the yolk. Afterward the
inventor of the mammoth egg had two
light tin cases made of the proper
shape and dimensions. but there is no
record of her having obtained a patent
on her device.

Should women work,

A writer in contemporary argues
that women should not work. Certain
ly, q great many women would be glad
II the writer could give them some
plan by which they might escape from
doing 30 much hard labor as many of
them have to do. But we presume he
means they should not do the work
which naturally belongs to man.
should not be slaves to hard or de-
grading labor which Injuries the health
and destroys happiness. His argu-
ment runs as follows: Marriage
among the higher animals is a form
of mutual cooperation Of the sexes.
During the Matching season the male
bird does all the work of providing
food for his mate; 50 1t is with even
( ms and hyenas. Among savage men
women are slaves to labor largely be-
cause there has been SO much warfare
going on between different tribes that
II was necessary. and mans seifishness
has kept her at 1t even when not nee
essary, but 1t is passing phase Of CIV
ilixation, and must come to an end
In civilized nations female toll is not
necessary. Man alone could do all
the labor and produce all the wealth
required. Woman labor tends to
lower the marketable value Of male
labor; for, while woman is working
in tie fActories, there arc everywhers
crowds Of men vainIy seeking employ
ment, to whom the cessation oe work
b . recunent and terrible evil.
