MAsrlcATloN A LOST ART
A Common Disease OF the Gums Due
to 1t.

Masticat6n is rapidly becoming a
lost art and although we have become
hardened to the fact that three-fourthS
of the dyspepsia is due to this cause, it
might surprise some of us to know that
the early decay of the teeth and disease
of the gums are FASTENED by this same
lack of maXiliary exercise. \ disease
of the gums called Riggs disease,
which is every day becoming more
common, is caused almost entirely by
the want of proper mastication.
Twenty-Five years ago this trouble
was not considered of Importance by
the dentist on account of its rare Oc-
currence. To-day it IS given more care
than the decay of the teeth, as he is
frequently consulted by patients who
have a full set of natural teeth which
are quite loose in the jaw. Aside from
this, they are sound and hc7lthy. After
a certain development in the disease
nothing can be done to help them. by
lack of exercise the blood, which should
nourish both the bones and the gums,
is not carried to the part, nor does the

Boy Almost Buried Alive.

Jacob Grath, son of Charles Grath of
the town of Nasewaupee, was almost
buried alive. He had been i'll for some
time, and respiration having ceased, he
was thought to be dead. Relatives were
te'egraphed for, the casket ordered and
the undertaken proceeded to prepare the
remains for the coffin. The body was laid
on the cooling board, and while the un-
dertaker was at work the supposed corpse
sprang up, dashed through tie house
frightening every member therein and be

been in a trance forty-eight hours. He
was finally captured and on examination

Henry Scheller of Black Wolf was kill
ed at a Northwestern crossing near Van
Dyne as he was returning from Fond du
Lac. 1t appears from the information OBJ
tanned that he was struck by a fast
freight, but there were no witnesses of
the accident. His body was found lying
alongside of the track and word was sent
to his home, after which an inquest was
held. His horse, released from the de-
molshed buggy, had gone on home, thus
alarming the members of his family and
causing them to go in search of him.

Heavy rains, unusual in that latitude

The coffee crop, now being gathered, will

Laborers are asking high prices to gather
