Go TO YOnr Dentist,

Don't pull out baby's teeth until they
are so loose that they almost drop out
themselves. Many mothers make the
mistake of pulling out baby's teeth too
soon. And don't neglect taking the
children to your dentist for his early
counsel and advice. The time for the
dentist to begin his care of the teeth is
in childhood, before it becomes too late
to save them.
You see, we go a little deeper into
this important subject than merely to
say that Pearlo-dento is for the teeth
and breath. We want you 70 use Pear
lo-dento as your family dentifrice be-
cause it Is the only preparation that
comes up to the ideal standard, but We
also advise you to let your dentist do
his part so that Pearlo-dento will find
good teeth to preserve. Our circular
inside our violet boxes gives hints
about the care of the teeth.

yhe Late Mr.. Harriet u. Maltby.

The Late Mr.. Harriet Il. Mnltby.
On Monday last. at five minutes to
six in the morning, there passed to her
rest Mrs. Harriet B. Maltby at the old
Maltby homestead, formerly 377 Grand
avenue, but now 10 Maltby place.
Not a more admiral character, as
a friend to the poor, as loving mother
and sincere Christian, could be found
in our midst Of a quiet and gentle
nature. she did not make but little out
ward dis qlay in the social world. II ough
she was fond of company. Her aim
was to live a peaceful life, helping 9TH
ers to a life of rectitude with gentle
words of advice No one ever went to
her for help that did not receive it, if
it lay in her power to bestow. Her
neghbors all admired her strong vet
gentle character, and not one word of
censure was ever said of her by any
worthy person. She lived, though hav-
ing ample means, in a simple, natural
way, doing her daily tasks with energy
and cheerfulness.
Many of the children of Fair Haven
will recall her kindness in giving them
large quantities of fruit in it's season,
and visitors never went away empty
handed. Her husband also had this
generous quality, and many worthy
people of rair Haven can testify to
their generosity in giving away vegeta-
bles and fruits.
Mrs. Maltby was e-eminently a
Christian women. This was her strong
characteristic. The open Bible lay on
her table continually, and it was her
constant friend amidst the battles of
life that every one must fight. She
was also a woman of considera BILE cul-
ture and intelligence from literary
point of view. The New York Observer
was her great favorite. The daily press
she never read. She was an early
riser, getting up about a. m. and re-
firing early.
She had a large circle of relatives,
who visited her in her loneliness and
widowhood. and in her nieces and 9TH
er relations she took great delight and
pleasure. entertaining them in the most
hospitable way. Many of them, if they
should see this article. can remember
the happy and restful days passed at
the Maltby homestead and their coming
there wearied out with home cares and
going away strong, happy and rested,
ready to take up their daily cross.

TIVE CALIFORNIA VINTAGE

San Francisco, Sept. 24.-The Califor-
MIA vintage is later than usual this year,
but will be superior to any since 1892,
while the dry wine crop will be the
largest the state has produced since the
bonanza year of 1893. The total vintage
is estimated at from 100000 to 2O,OOO.-
0O0 gallons. The price, however, will
probably be low, owing to competition
among the big corporations handling
the product.

DID SACHS TRY POISON?
A Story to the Effect Comes from Kill
ingworth

ingworth.
Middletown, Sept. 24.-Herman Sachs,
who is under arrest for shooting and
killing Bertrand l.. Hotchl1iss a farmer
of Killingworth, is now accused of hav-
ing previously tried to poison him.
Hotchkiss was sitting in the kitchen
of his home when the shot that killed
him was fired. Mrs Hotchkiss swore
she saw Sachs running from the room
few seconds afterwards.
On July IS Sachs was at the Hotch-
kiss home, says this new Killingworth
story. He knew that the husband pre-
ferred coffee to tea, and that the wife's
taste was the reverse. But that even
ing Hotchkiss drank tea, and the coffee
prepared by his wife was served at
breakfast the following morning.
After tasting the coffee the husband
pushed his cup away, exclaiming:
what an Internal mess" The wife
drank of the mess" and both were
taken violently i'll.
DIR. Markham, the physician summon
ed. has said since Sachs arrest that his
patients were poisoned. Three years
ago Hotchkss bought some strychnine,
which was kept in a pantry, away from
other articles. Sachs, it is said, knew
of the poison.
At his trial he will be accused of US
ing it to murder Hotchkiss.
The attorneys for the defence have
completed their investigation and are
fully convinced that they can clear
Sachs. They have dismissed their de-
tectives and will do no more until just
before the time of the trial.
