Various Kinds OF Toothnche.

From me fouh'S Conn anon,
There are several kinds Of toothache, due 10
very different causes. and as not all sorts are
capable Of relief by the same means, 1t is use
full 70 be able TO distinguish among them.
one form Of too,hachc is due to disease Of the
tooth Itself, another to disease Of the parts about
the tooth, and still another TO neuralgia of the
nerves, the teeth themselves being perhaps per.
fectly sound
The most common toothnshc is caused BY con.
geston or Inflammation Of the pulp Of n tooth The
pulp Is a soft material nlling the centre Of the
tooth and serving a. Il bed Tor the nerve and

IMERICsN STEEL FOR NORWAY.
This Country Now n Competitor in the
Market with England and Germany.

The published announcement that an order
has been placed in Baltimore for 1000 tons Of
Steel rails for railroad building in Norway, the
first order Of the kind from that country TO the
United States. draws attention TO the fact that
similar orders have been communicated TO Arms
in other cities, the demand for American steel
being now greater than ever before abroad as
well as at home Norway imports in a year goods
and produce 10 the valu g OF $50, 600 900, the
chief items ~ such imports being -four, textiles,
machinery, groceries, oil and vehicles. The
Norwegian exports which are much less in volume
and value, are lumber, skins, p paper, ores and fish
and the chief market for Norwegian goods is
England, from which manufactured articles, In
largest amount, are imported.
The Exports Of American steel rails have, here
toiore, been insignificant in amount To European
countries, which are now supplied by England,
Germany and Belgium During the twelve
months ending Jan |, 1898, only 1900 tons Of
American steel in bars for railroad use Mas shipped
tothe whole Of Europe During the twelve months
ending Jan |. 1899. the shipments increased to
81 Op tons, but the increase vas not maintained,
for during the last six months reported, the SIX
nluntnS ending Jan. !, 1900, the total shipments
Ner~ only u. 100 tons Of the value OF S46O, 900.
England has long retained this branch of com

countries being Germany. The appearance Of
the | nlt"d States in the market OF supply Of steel
10 Scandinavian countries would. therefore. be-
something Of \ surprise were II not for the fact
that the lOrrign marHet for american goods IL
now constantly expanding even In directions
which have been entirely GneN peCtel. In 1883
the I nit'd States exported more than 81 900, 900
worth II steel f. railroad purposes to Japan
and In the same year the exp operations Of American
steel 10 Canada and the other British provinces
Of North America were nearly 81, 900, 900. In
the same year the I nited States sent to Mexico
~, 900 tons Of steel Of the value II 500, 900 and
Ia South \merlCa 10000 tons Of the value Of
S31O,OOO That the market is not a steady one
but subject 10 fluctuations j. best shown, per
hapS, by the fact that In the year 1899 the largest
market for american steel WAS not one of the
countries which had led before, but what the
Treasury statistics describe rather vaguely as
Asia and DCrHniCH As a result Of IN" cXten
sion Of american interests to and the establish
mrnt If American sovereignty within this ter.
rItury the expectation Of American steel during

are at first disposed to be a little shy, bu, they
gradually make advances, and ultimately take
the visitors into full confidence.

gallantly alongside, and just where Mr..
since Col. Armstrong would not look
at all. He had entered into an eXplana-
ton of the ceremony by that time well
under way, and Miss Lawrence's great
soft brown eyes were fixed upon him
attentively when, perhaps, she should
have been gazing at the maneuvers.
Like those latter, possibly, her thoughts
were changing direction.
Not ten minutes later occurred the
collision between the hack and the
heels that resulted in the demolition of
one and decentralization" of the rider
of the victor. While the latter was led
away by the obedient Mr.. Ellis lest the
sight of him should bring on another
nervous attack, Mrs. Garrison was suf-
fering herself to be comforted. Her
nerves were gone, but she had not lost
her head. Lots of Preside DANES and
damsels were up on the heights that
day in such vehicles as the post afford
ed. None appeared in anything so
stylish and elegant as the carriage of
the Prime party. She was a new and
comparative stranger there, and it
would vastly enhance her social
prestige, she argued, to be seen in such
swell surroundings. With a little
tact and management she might even
arrange matters so that, willy nilly, her
friends would drive her thither instead
of taking Col. Armstrong back to
camp. That would be a stroke worth
playing. She owed Stanley Armstrong
a bitter grudge, and had nursed it long.
She had known him ten years and hated
him nine of them. Where they met and
when it really matters not. In the army
people meet and part in a hundred
places when they never expected to
meet again. She had married Frank

She was four years his senior, if the
chaplain could be believed, and five
months his junior if she could. What

in their ages at the time of the cere-
mony no one would suspect the truth

looked aged and careworn and
harassed, and she who preserved her
youthful bloom and vivacity.
And now, as she reclined as though

wits were planning the scheme that

HONORING HER SON.
The Mother of Robert Louis Steyen-
son at IL Memorial Meeting In
Edinburgh.

Perhaps the first person to believe
in the genius of Robert Louis Stevenson
was his mother. She was devotedly at
tached to him throughout his life and
realized his value to the world long
before the world gave him a hearing.
1t was her lot to live to mourn his
death, but she was comforted in her
trouble by the sympathy of two ma
tions.
Some time after his death Il great
memorial meeting was held in Edin-
burgh. For his mother says the author
of ''Stevenson's Edinburgh Days" it
was a gala day. She started for Music
hall not too early, feeling sure of a
seat with reserved ticket" in her
hand. She had declined to sit on the
platform and preferred to be simple
unit in the audience.
The crowd was beyond expectations.
Mrs. Stevenson arrived to find every
passage blocked and surging mass at
the main entrance clamoring for ad-
mittance.
She feared that she, with them,
would be turned away; but as a forlorn
hope she appealed TO a policeman.
It's nae use, it's fu'," he said; ire
serve seats were ta'en an hour ago by
folks that had nae tickets, and they
would ma gang out"
81 must get int" cried Mrs. Steven
son, reused out of her usual calm. I've
a right to get in. l am Robert Louis
Stevenson's mother"
aye, you've the best right" the po-
fceman replied, and turning to the
crowd he cried:
MAX way, there. She maun get in.
She's Roabert Loms' mither."
People who had thought themselves
packed too tightly to move, somehow
packed closer and let Mrs. Stevenson
squeeze past.
Breathless, hustled, and for once
with her mantle and bonnet a little
awry, much against her will the crowd
pushed her to the platform. There
she FASTENED to take back seat, and u
few minutes later she heard the orator
of the day, Lord Rosebery. say with an
emphasis which the audience under
stood we'll: His mother is here."-

WHO DIED WITHOUT A NAME.

How brief the stay, as beautiful as fieetinS,
The time that baby came with us to
dwell;
lust long enough TO give happy greeting,
Just long enough to bid US all farewell.
Death travels down the thickly settled
highway.
At shining marks they say he loves to
aim;
How did he find far down our lone byway,
Our little girl who died without name?
We do not hIow the fond endearment
spoken
To which she listened when she fell
asleep,
And so beside a column that was broken
We laid her TO her slumber, calm and
deep;
$ve traced upon the stone with loving fin
gers
These simple words, affections tears to
claim:
~In dreams beyond all earthly sorrow lin
gers
Our little girl who died without name"
sae sleeps serene where fragrant messy
willows
In sweet and wordless tunes forever
wave;
Where summer seas. in long and fadeless
pillows,
Break into bloom around her lonely grave

Der!
we trace their deeds upon the scroll of
fame!

IRISH SUPERSTITIONS.
Story of Stone That Was Believed
TO Possess Pernicious
Power.

On 1nishkea n particular family
handed down from father to son stone
called the Ne-ogue probably part of
some image, with which the owners
used to make the weather to their .ik-
ing. One day a party of tourists vis-
tied Inishkea, heard of the Ne-ogue,
saw it and wrote about it in the papers.
The priest in whose parish Inishkea
lay either had not known of this sur
vival of paganism or thought that no
one else knew of it, but when the
thing was made public he decided to
act So he visited the island, took the
Ne-ogue and broke it up into tiny frag
ments and scattered them to the four
winds. The priest was sacrosanct, but
the islanders vowed vengeance and an
unfortunate man of science who had
lived some time among them was
pitched upon as certainly the person
who had made the story public. This
man after some time returned to COM
plete his Investigations at Inishkea
and was warned of danger; but he
laughed at the idea, and said the people
were his very good friends, as indeed
they had been. However, he was hard
ly out of the boat before they fell upon
him and beat him so that he never com
pletely recovered-indeed, died in con-
sequence of his injuries some years
later.
Probably a like fate would befall
anyone who touched the cursing stone
on Tory, which was turned on the
Wasp gunboat after she brought
posse of bailiffs there to levy county
cess; and, as every one knows, the
Wasp ran on Tory and lost every soul
on board. Only the other day heard
that a fish buyer stationed there dis
