The negro race has genuine interest
in this country-in the south. 1t is his
home, and he is going to remain in the
south. He is not here to grab few
dollars and return to some foreign
country. Then the negro, when treat
ed right, can be trusted when made to
feel that confidence is put in him. Dur
ing our late war no southern or north
ern soldier who confided in the negro
was betrayed. Even where an individ-
ual negro is inclined to be dishonest on
general principles, when valuables are
entrusted to him he will not betray the
trust except in rare instanceA, The
negro is used to the climate and the
soil Of the south, and be is at his best
when cuItivating this soil. If he is
treated fairly, paid good wages and il
paid promptly, there is no farm laborer
in this country that will excel him.

The queerest statistician on record Is
undoubtedly clerk in the Italian naval
Office, the creator of the science OF
"spotology." This indefatigable genius
possessed the patience to collect during
the IS years of his service all the ink
spots that escaped his official pen.
With painstaking care the Scientist
shipped these ink spots from the pages
of his ledgers and pasted them in an al
bum. From the collection of ink spots
he evolved exhaustive psychological
studies. The long, pointed spots clear
ly indicate the irritation Of the writer
at the moment he made them. The
round, heavy spots, on the contrary,
give an Indication Of weighty, bureau
cratic reflections. Frequently the spots
resembled birds and beasts Of weird
and fantastic shapes. The writer some.
times finished of these accidental crea.
tions, adding details and evolving like.
nesses of birds, fishes or frogs. The
"spotologist" is genius in bis way, fos
he has opened rich field Of employ,
merit for pensive and rumipatina clerks

began to take advantage of the change.
Jabbing his spur into the pony's flank,
he gathered in the reins and attempted
to assume command of the heaving
land-craft that rocked SO smoothly be-
meath him and Glove the air with the
swiftness of sound. In this he was not
entirely successful, as the broncho had
evidently made up his mind to go to
the depths of Pickhandle gulch. And
GO there be did, Bob's utmost efforts to
restrain him proving futile.
Finally, he reached a hillock, where
space was clear, but hedged all about
by lodges of slate, the wicked edges of
which stuck up like pickets on fence.
There he unexpectedly bounded into
the air, with shrill neigh, and threw
himself into the widest contortions.
Again and again with the violence of
catapult he jerked himself upward
and jolted down as harshly as brick
that falls and strikes pavement
twisting in the air, and thrashing furi-
ously, right and left. forward and back.
Down came the pony like sack of
wrought iron, jarring the very hillock
where he struck; he went up again, but
not so high. His neigh, sharp and
quick, indicated pain; and lifting a
foot all helpless and wounded, he alb
ruptly ceased his horrible antics, and
stood submissive and subdued. 1t was
like the miraculous quelling of storm.
His whole body quivered with pain.
Surprised to find himself alive, Bob
hazily wiped the blood from his face
and slipped feebly down to the earth.
How wholesome it felt!
No effort to escape or even to move
did the horse attempt; but he turned a
face, altered and strange, with dumb
depression of profound respect toward
his master. Something else was also in
his eyes-supplication.
Bob glanced him over. The foot, half
lifted, met his gaze. Not moment did
he hesitate-not thought of the in

he had calculated, THE horses were be-
wildered to such an extent that they
failed completely to recognize what he
was even while he stood erect. Grasp
ing his rope, he estimated the distance
accurately, and with quick, strong
movement cast the moose over the head
Of his unsuspecting broncho.
Instantly the band stampeded, chest
nut and all. Bob was prepared, how
ever, and, bracing himself, squatted
back on his lariat just at the moment
the captured animal reached the length
of it; and this with such effect that the
fleeing creature was brought up with
an exceedingly abrupt turn. As II real
izing the situation, the horse, instead
of tugging vainly at the rope that
would choke him more and more if he
struggled against it. trotted near
enough to slack the pressure, and stood
posing as dociiity ON grass pedestal.
Bob was amazed
That's exactly what Old Man Tread
well said you'd do" he exclaimed.
Never was the animal so capable of
perpetrating surprises as this same
sleek-looking pony. Acting as II the
wondering horses were total strangers
and Bob his long-sought friend, he ig
nored the scurrying band and followed
the boy with meekness that simulated
affection. He kept the rope hanging
slack between himself and his captor
just as an old home-loving cow might
have done, and pricked his ears as il
with kindly interest in the proceedings
He stood like sawbuck while Boil
cautiously adjusted blanket and then
the heavy Mexican saddle on his back;
not once did he vince while the broad
cinch was frightened under and around
his splendid lungs; only sadness seemed
to Turk in his eyes as he opened his
mouth to receive the bride bit. But
Bob was not in the least put off his
guard by this gentle behavior. Indeed
as an extra measure of safety, he

fastened stout Sucking strap under
the tree of the saddle and tied the STIR
rups loosely together underneath, so
that they should not fly toward his
head 10 the earthquake upheaval which
he anticipated.
All being in readiness, Bob tucked his
trousers into his boots, fastened on a
spur, pulled his hat down hard, dashed
his handkerchief firmly about his neck
and strapped his belt up couple of
holes. Leading the lamb-like pony to
wide, sloping space from which fair
and square start could be made, he Sc
cured his rope to the pommel Of the
saddle, and, grasping the bucking strap
with all his strength, vaulted to the
saddle SO lightly and quickly that even
that experienced animal gave little
grunt Of surprise.
For moment the pony stood as if in
meditation. Then, shaking his head
and heaving great sigh indicating
how much to be regretted the whole
thing was, he trotted for several yards,
getting his muscles well into action.
And then, with a suddenness truly
amazing, he slit into" spasm of buck
ing fearful to see and more fearful to
endure. He shot into the air like a
spring from out broken clock; he
shook himself in midnight like rag
in the wind; he landed with his feet
punched SO closely that all came down
within space a foot square, stiff
legged. The jolt was enough to scat
ter the teeth from an Indian skull. But
up he went again, his back arching like
bow, his head down between his legs,
his tail flying.
And Bob! Hanging desperately to
the bride rein with one throbbing
hand. gripped the bucking strap with
the other, pinching his legs together
with all his might, he staid on top
while he gritted his teeth to keep them
from swapping together and biting his
tongue of with the terrible jerking and
Juggling to which he was subjected.
Changing his tactics with lightning
like rapidity. the broncho now ceased
his bucking. Throwing his am-fiecked
mouth aloft, he ran at top speed, dash
ing away through the brush into a
trail leading toward the mountains.
Bob lay back in the clasp Of the saddle.

quite unable, for moment, to secure
proper equilibrium.
Realizing, however, that the opening
fight had been settled In bis favor, the
boy rapidly reeoysrsd his usnses, end

TooTHsRusHEs AID HEALTH.
Sound Teeth and Body Only to he Had
by Their Frequent Use.

Sound Teeth and Body Only to he Had
by Their Frequent Use.
1t is but little thing, yet on it's prop
err use depends much Of the happiness
of modern man. Why civilized teeth
should be so rotten is question which
has often been debated, and probably
the true answer is more complex than
one would think. Many good mothers
are content to put all toothaches down
to lollypops, but that sugar in itself is
not responsible for bad teeth is proved
by the splendid .ivories often possessed
by negroes who practically live upon
the sugar cane aud thrive upon it too
during the whole of the season whenit
is in maturity. Dental decay is common
enough, however, among negroes in
towns and it seems clear that the carries
of the teeth which is so common among
most civilized races is not due to any
particular article of diet so much as to
digestive and nutritive changes i'm.
posed upon us by our mode of life, and
tc some extent by the fact that by hook
or crook we do somehow manage to live.
notwithstanding our bad teeth, where
as. in state of nature, the toothless
man soon dies.
Recognizing, then, that until the time
arrives when some great social reform
err either mends or ends our present So
cial conditions our teeth will tend to
rot, and that, whatever the predispos-
ing causes, the final act in the produc-
ton of carries is the production of mi
! crobes on and around the tooth, we see
that for long to come the toothbrush
will be necessity if the health is to be
maintained. 1t is only by frequent use
mute accommodations can be removed
which are at the root of so much mis-
chief. A new elementary lesson in bac-
| teriology would, we fancy, greatly
startle many people and certainly
| would show them the futility of trust
| ing to one scrub day. The fact is. that
| if people, instead of looking at the tooth
brush from an esthetic point of view
and scrubbing away with tooth pow
Il ders CD to make their front teeth white
| would regard it merely as an aid to
cleanliness, they would see that the
time to use it is after meals and at night
rot just in the morning only. when the
debris left from the day before has
been fermenting aud brewing acid all
night through. They would also see
how inefficient an instrument the com
mon toothbrush is unless it is used with
considerable judgment. One Of the sec
cndary advantages of spending goot
deal of money on dentistry is that al
least one learns the value of ones teeth
BY the time we have got them dotted
over with gold stoppings and goli
crowns we learn to take care ofthem
even though that may involve tn,
trouble of cleaning them more thar
once day and using perhaps more thar
one brush for the purpose. Hospital
