what the Teeth Tell.

st is possible" said a well known
dentist to a writer a day or two ago, for
a medical man to tell more about the dis
position and constitution of a person by
an examination of the teeth than by any
other part of the body.
Nowadays the first thing that an army
surgeon does when a man is brought up
for enlistment is to look at the would be
soldiers teeth. If they show any signs
of decay, 1t is evident that the mans com
stitution is delicate, and his services as a
soldier are Immediately declined, even
though he be in every other respect a
perfect specimen Of manhood. Men with
irregular teeth-teeth uneven and imper-
fect-are also declined, as those possess
ing such teeth are usually not strong and
hence are unfit for the arduous duties of
army life
Another popularity noticeable in many
persons Is q spotted tooth. This Is a
tooth covered with dark specks and Is
usually found in the mouth Of people
with a weak intellect. 1t is, In fact, a
sign of insanity. Large teeth show
bratniness, more especially II they be
regular. A set Of perfect teeth is the
surest sigp Of a good constitution

When the other Drotner Deheld the
great disaster that had been visited upon
his lands, he was sore distressed More
over, the time speedily came when fam
inc brought his household face to face
with want Yet IN the presence Of his
exigencies he maryeled that bis slaves
suffered no ills, and perceiying that they
came and went at certain intervals he
disguised himself, ss had his brother,
and followed them into the mountains.
And 1t happened that as he reached the
temple and mingled with the people
therein the obi man was In the very act
of calling upon the frog to send the fever
plague into bis household, And he Iook<
ed again and saw that the slave who
had desired this thing was none other
than his brother disguised ike himself.
And when the afflicted brother UNDER
stood the source Of the deadly Influences
that were being brought against him
he fed In terror from tho place, and go
ing before the governor Of the island
revealed to him The secret Of the fetish
temple and the banefdl sfifE his bfgfheE
was having brought upon him. So the
governor sent forth his army to destroy
the temple and to bring the Offending
brother to punishment. Now, il SO hap
pened that the army in entering the
country passed through the prosecuted
brothers lands, upon hearing Of which
the evil brother IN the north exuIted
greatly, believing It the result Of the war
plague which he had besought OF the obj
man to bring into his brothers possess
sions. And that very night be again set
out for the temple that he might Gauss
his brother to be stricken with the final
plague Of death. But even as be reached
the spot he perceived that . great com-
motion prevailed about the temple, for
the governors soldiers were 10 the act OF
demolishing its walls. But as yet one
tower remained, whereon sat the green
serpent. And the obi man, who had
been bound by the soldiers, seeing the
brother from the north approach and at
~tributing to the latter's evil eye the dire
misfortune that had come to pass, spoke
his name to the serpent. And straight
way the last plague which the wicked
conspirator had intended should fall upon
his brother was visited upon himself
and he fell dead before the wrecked tenn
pie. Moreover, declares the present aged
guardian OF the ruins, from that day the
virtue departed from the canedelds in
the valley to the north and entered the
great tobacco fields OF the south, which
ever until now are the richest In the
island.

American ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS no longer

ceased to be insular. They have taken

One or the most significant steps In this

the achievement OF the Philadelphia firm
which has just completed the construc-

It spans the Atbara river at its junction

When the military authorities In the
Sudan appealed to the British govern

struction Of the work, parliament gave
a ready response, but the English firms
were not SO prompt. Most Of them de-
manded two years In which to do the
work. None would undertake it in less
than a years time. Then the COMPETE
ton was opened to American firms. The

he has followed this hazardous business
since his childhood, has been handicap
ped from his birth by the absence of a leg.
Brit, or Crit" Gruwell, says the San
Francisco Examiner, IS known through
out the west, the home of the vaqueros,
as the nerviest horse breaker, the hardest
mar to throw and the successful rider of
more outlawed horses than any other
broncho buster on the coast.
When several hundred ladies and gen
tlemen from San Jose and the surround
ing country gathered on the Coe ranch,
in San Felipe valley, not long ago for a
grand barbecue and tournament, compar-
atively few among them we're aware that
the unassuming man with the wooden
leg circling among the participants was
the crack rider of the hills. and when the
horses were lined up for the start it was
curious to hear the comments and the
expressions Of sympathy and surprise,
especially among the ladies, at one so
crippled venturing to compete with able
bodied men, but when they saw how he
managed himself, his horse and his wood
en- leg their exclamntions changed from
alarm to outbursts Of enthusiasm. That
a man so MANNED could cling to a run
ming horse, on top, underneath. sideways,
more like q monkey than a human being,
trusting to but one sound leg to hold
him In the saddle while he picked up
kerchiefs and coins, seemed miraculous,
but what he showed them later outdid
these feats completely.
The cheers and shouts that echoed
from the hills behind put Gruwell N his
mettle. After that his yenturesome spir-
it rose rampant. Limping into the mid
die of the ring, he challenged them all,
calling aloud for any man In the state to
ride against him without use Of spurs In
the cinch, but In al that cavalcade Of
wild riders not one dared to take him
up.
No vaqueros' tournament would be
complete without an exhibition Of buck
ing bulls in this land OF the old bull
fighting Dons. and three of the largest
and fercest old toros o~btainable in the
whole Las Animas region had been pro-
vided for this event. When the COW
punchers drove these fellows Into the
arena and they were roped, thrown down
and saddled amid a chorus Of excited
yells and encouragements, 1t was Brit
Gruwell again, with his wooden leg, who
was the first to mount, leaping up and
sitting lady fashion, with his apparently
useless limb hooked yisclike around the
pommel. and there he staid immovable
while the wild eyed beast snorted IND
eavorted around the corral. There are
not many who were in that concourse
but will remember the unique picture of
a one legged vaquero perched upon a
mad beast hardly held by three strong
larsats.
