saturdays receptIon Eas another Of
the many tiu.s that the Astoria Military
band made no charge for furnishing the
music. Many Of the members are 50
employed that the loss OF time was
charged against them and thus It was a
loss to them to attend the reception with
the band. Their music did much to en-
Hven the reception and banquet and the
citizens Of Astoria should feel under
many obligations to the band boys and
give uhe band helping hand whenever
an opportunity presents. Had the band In
sisted on being paid there would have
been no music al the reception, fer the
committee We're without funds. as the
expenses that were absolutely necessary
had far exceeded the amount al their
disposal. Astoria has as good q band as

ENCOURAGEMENT possible by the citizens
Of this city.

Of them had ever heard OF or seen
false teeth. After the gentleman had
replaced them. the natives remained
silent and thoughtful. and became
more respectful than ever During
the day he visited several places. and
was at once surrounded by natives
who stopped down and tried % look
up into his mouth. Tho day after. 10
visited a distant valley. As soon as
he entered Il, a.crowd 81 natives gath
erod around him. and fixed their eyes
on his mouth when he ate they in
tontly watched his teeth, and were dis.
appointed when he did not take them
out. Soon afterward he visited an-
other valley. and the story % his
strange teeth was ahead OF him. ana
he was at once surrounded. lie took
passage on a schooner and visited sew
eral OF the islands Of the group. and
wherever he landed he was a. once
met 10y crowd who watched his
mouth. The natives passing from one
island to another had carried in ad-
vance the story of his wonderful
teeth, and his power to take them
out and replace them. He left the
group. and from that time to the pres
ent. the question OF his mysiol ious
teeth has, no doubt, been the staple
subject of conversation among the diff
ferent tribes. The heather biologists
do not know where to place him. II
the early missionary fathers who made
some efforts to reform these heather,
had provided themselves with the sim
pie contrivance of false teeth, and mad
exhibited them to the natives only on
holidays and Sundays, with appropri-
ate ceremonies. they would have kept
them in awe. II was, perhaps, by neg
lecting the use of devices. simple
enough to the civilized man but re-
garded as supernatural by the saw
ages, that the superstitions of the lat
ter were not disturbed. Professor J.
$. Emerson should be able TO cast
some light upon this perpleXing prob
lem. As the general reservoir of the
Kahuna literature of Hawaii. he must
be able TO determine the effect Of a
row of false teeth on the untutored
mind
