Dentistry Among the Kanirs.

The most barbarous method of DENTS
try is that practiced by the Kaffirs. The
Kaffir dentist places his patients on the
ground, and four men hold him down.
Then the operator kneels beside him,
and, with a piece Of sharpened wood,
ivory or steel, digs away at the gum
until the tooth is loose enough to be
pulled out with the thumb and finger.
The time occupied is sometimes 80 min
untes, and we can imagine that a
kaffir must have terrible toothache
before he goes to dentist for relief.

at hand that can be used without max

Dog Was Very Much Surprised.

A large Newfoundland dog in Albany
had Q surprise the other day. One of
the span wires of the trolley line fell
across trolley wire and hung within
foot of the ground. The dog watched
it swinging, and, his curiosity getting
the better of him, came closer and
shifted at it. He was a fortunate dog
that there was only a weak current on,
but it was strong enough to make him
turn several somersaults before he re-
gained his senses. When he did, he
gave one mournful look at the wire, and
then started for home with the speed
of an express train.

Keeper Sweeney provides with all the

The little animals are the constant
cynosure of hundreds of juvenile eyes
that watch their frolic vagaries with de-

all the jealousy of a solicitous matron.

Nut sandwiches are excellent served
