And now there is another insect that l.
bothering the people of Maine. This one
is a louise or flea that attacks the pea
vines. The board of agriculture has re
ceived inquiries Of the best method of
treating the pea vines thus affected, but
thus far their entomologist has not had
time to determine what to do as it has
been SO few days since the reports came
in.
In Augusta the louise has appeared If
is small fuzzy little insect that is the
color of the pea vine to which it clings
and saps the strength of the vine
Not only has it attacked the pea vines,
but 1t has begun its work on the vines of
the sweet pea. Many Augusta ladies
have complained within few days that
it is working terrible havoc on their
vines. The Journal conversed with one
lady who said she had treated her vines
to hellebore and others had tried soap
suds but neither seemed to entirely kill
the insects though it seemed to remedy
the trouble to a certain degree
The report of the entomologist of the
board will be anxiously awaited bv the
owners of vegetable gardens and also by

suited on the matter agree that the de.
cline of the teeth is due to the present
artificial mode Of living, to adulterated
provisions and to the habit of cooking
everything until tender.
One eminent specialist says that In
Lent he is twice as busy as at any other
time. The reason for this, so he asserts,
Is that there are fewer parties then, and
people do not mind so much being a few
days mot at home" to their friends,
should their front teeth want repairing
In this respect 1t Is interesting to learn
that men are even more vain than
women.
The dentist in question tells a good
story of a woman who certainly had an
original reason for having her teeth at
tended to during Lent.
II have put off coming to see you about
my teeth until now" she began, as she
sunk into seat, because I have several
to be stopped AS, of course, you'll tell
me to starve myself for twenty-four
hours each time you stop one, 1 may
as well do 1t in Lent, when. In any case,
1 should have to do a little fasting."
AS showing the decadence of the teeth
of the present generation, it may be
recorded that a physician has been study
ing the condition Of the mouths of cen
tenarians. He finds that out of forty
two centenarians only fifteen were with
out TOOTH and the others were in pos
session of an ample supply. Yet in peo-
pie about eighty years or age the aver
age number of teeth Is rarely more than
five

That we are growing weak

That we are growing

WAS BURIED ALIVE
And Taken From the Grave No
Worse for Hypnotic Sieep.

Carl athena, the young Greek who was
hypnotized and buried alive on Thursday
night, was dug up from his living grave
at o'clock tonight no worse for his ex-
perience.
After apparently lying In a dead state
for forty-eight hours the rigid form was
taken from the massive box A large
number OF persons was present to wi
ness the taking of the living man from
his grave.
Athena who was buried as test of the
power of hypnotic suggestion to suspend
the functions indefinitely without serious
harm to the subject, is a recent conner
to this day. His hypnotizer is an officer
who has seen service with the volunteers,
Lieut.. James Jeffrey.
1t is said that the temptation of win
ming $1,000 If he submitted to the test was
the motive of the Greek In permitting
himself to be buried, rather than any
especial zeal in the cause of science His
nervous temperament and susceptible ma
ture made him an ideal subject for a mes
merlst.
The authorities consented to the trial
only on condition that precautions be
taken to prevent the Greek from being
smothered in his living grave. They de-
manded that the grave should be fitted
with tube so that Athena could breathe
freely and communicate with those above
ground should he awaken. A long wood
en- tube was placed directly above his
face, the other end extending some feet
above the ground. Then an electric light
bulb was placed directly above the young
mans face. A normal sleeper could not
endure the glare for ten minutes, but the
Greeks eyelashes did not even CULVER in
all the hours he slept.
