DENTISTRY AT SEA.

And something Also About the I'rnc-
ticc OF Medicine Anont.
When n sailor on a dccp-watcr ship
has n toothachc he is likely to 90 to the
captain. The captain gives him some
thing out of the medicine chest TO put
in his tooth, and il that doesn't cure it
perhaps he pulls il, says the New York
sun. II is Il common thing for sailors
to pull their own teeth. Their method
is to put n string around n tooth and
pull it; but dental forccps are carried
on dccp-watcr ships; on some vessels
a fair outfit of them. \ ship CAPTAIN
OF long experience said that in the
course of his life at sea he had pulled
200 teeth.
The ships medicine cncst on large
vessels is like a closet or cupboard. with
Il glass door, built in the ship. In this
chest the medicine bottles. gilt-Iabclcd,
are arranged on shelves that rise one
above another in rcccding tiers: it is
practically a wcll-appointcd little drug
store. There is supplied with the mcdi-
ci.ic chest a book explaining the uses
ut the medicines. The captain Is like
~ to have some other book on medical
subjects which he has read and studied,
and nc is likely To have had n good deal
Of experience before attaining the rank
of master Of n ship.
The sailors are generally healthy
men. but, when occasion requires. the
captain prcscribcs; he Is the physician.
Limbs broken at sea are of course set
there, and there might he circum.
stances in wiiol, the captain would not
hesitate to perform n surgical opera

This is prosperity. Every corpor-

prosperity and claiming that it is
here. Stocks and bonds are up.
Wheat IS n dollar II bushel. This
certainly is prosperity.
Now that prosperity is here, stand
of and look at it. This Is just the
kind OF prosperity that the contribu-
tors to the Republican campaign
corruption fund paid for, aud they
are getting their money back with
interest. AS a matter OF fact. there
are some signs that times are not
quite so hard for common people this
winter rs those OF a year ago. There
are a few more Hen at work. True,
wages have been reduced, and mill
lions are yet unemploye ed, but the
total wage fund has probably slightly
increased. We Are enjoying a boom.

bright eyes fairly twinkled with de-
light at his remarks. During the
course of his address he asked the
children to answer any questions he
might ask. The youngsters took
him at his word and fired volleys of
answers tn every question.
Mr.. Earles spoke eloqueutly OF

institutions which they would leave
