Albert Brown, all aged and paralytie citizen of Paterson, N, J., was out and In q set of false teeth for two days. EIe swallowed them Sunday, and as he could not speak the whereabouts of the artificial grinders was a mystery. II was decided that since he could not have walked away with them and could net have thrown them away be. cause of his paralyzed condition. he must have swallowed them. The K rays discovered tha missing set ot mouth upholstery snugly reposing in the upper part of the esophagus. They were successfully removed and clamp ed to their proper positions-New York Journal

EARLY LAMPS AND WIGks. rS
The Latter Were Commonly the pith
 of She Rush.


 It would be hazardous to Ct liecture what the first wick consisted of but $hen We come to consider the iron lamp or 'erusie," we know that the wick commonly used was the pith or the rush, which was gathered and par aally stripped of its outer green cover ing, cut into proper lengths, dried and tied up into bundles ready for use. The ron lamp was hammered out of ons piece of iron in stone mold. This was usually done by the blacksmith. and the moids are still to be seen in museums, in the hands of private col leetors, and, no doubt at some of the country blacksmith shops. They are of uniform shape, with some slight ya- rieties. The lamp consists of two cups. 1ne suspended above and inside ths other. The suspender is so fixed and notehed as to enable the upper cup, which holds the oil and wick, to be shifted and to keep Eae oil constantly in contact with the wick The lower cup catches the drip of the oil, which can be easily replaced in the upper cup by lifting it off until the oil IS poured into it. The upper cup has sometimes B moFeable lid. There is a remarkable resemblance not only between the iron erusies in this country, but to those on the continent and in Egypt. They preserve the same general shape, but differ i1l the material from which they are made. The Pompeian lamps, or at least some of them, might be described as three crusies in one. The cup of the lamp Is the same, but it has provision for three lights. The oil used in the Scotch lamps was of the coarsest kind. On the west coast the oil used was, and is still. fish oil. Tie material for wicka was variable.

#0rlches in South Africa Are Often ! Exceedingly Familiar.
 # The war in South Africa is produc, Hive of the greatest euriosities that have ever come under the notice of the EBritish soldiers. One of the latest re- 5orts from the scene states that the smBle-ninded British soldiers have mistaken troops of ostriehes for bands | Of Boers and bands of Boers for troops E ei ostriches. Tn some cases the os- riches have made friends with the soldiers. One of the best known cors respondents at the front, who was with General Methuen at the Moader fiTer, reports this remarkable inci- dent: While ranged the valley or

 to dodge or help a stumbling man and

He marred this fine effect for just a moment by selzIng and swallowing a box of safety matches. After that he continued his sentry duty with satisfaction in his eyes" The ostrich is a great figure h public life in South Africa. He is source of wealth and often friend and companion. He is valuable sub- stltute for watch dog. He can kick horse to death and is, therefore, very to bu lars.

Big Contract for an American Company.
 Alter being carefully guarded for over two months 1t has leaked out that the tramWay committee of the Glas- BOW (scotland) corporation has award cd the contract for tae supply and lay ing of the conduit for conveying the cable for Glasgow municipal tramWays to the National Conduit and Cable company of A1nerlea. The work of laying the pipe under American super vision has already begun, and some 800 nayies are being employed. This con- duit contract is reported to be by far the most important one ever placed outside of England Already 2,000,00D feet of piping have been ordered, and It is said that the chances are that the entire requirements ia this line will be tiled by the Americans, and that the eable-on the superior manufacture of which English manufacturers have long pridea themse1yes-wil1 also be ordered from the United States. The curious part of the conduit contract is that lump sum has been agreed upon with the National company that will include the supply of pipes, the ex- eavation of the ea1th as well as the laying of the pipe.

CURIOUS EFFECTS
Painful, but Not Serious, Accidents Hava
 Upon Some PeopIs.

Upon Some PeopIss
 eIt has been my ill luck said Eor- ace Marston. of Portland, Me., at the Fifth Avenue Hotel, several times to witness painful accidents, and they had once or twice q curious effect on the sufferer. Years ago I was stand Ing beside a gun at state muster at Augusta, when a salute to the gov ernor, who had just come on the field, was being fired. The cannon used was of the o1d-fashioned kind, and 1t was prematurely discharged, with the ree suit that the index finger of the right hand of the man ramming the load home was blown off. The shock, to- gether with the Judgement of flying particles of powder, had the effect of driving the blood back from the wound, during which fragment of time the injured man calmly examined his mangled hand; but when the blood did come back tt came with rush, and fairly bubbled out in a torrent. The mans calmness left him as if by magic at the sight of the blood, and with Q loud scream he keeled over in a dead faint. They used to tell a story there of two men who were working on op. posite sides of a buzz saw. The atten ton of one becoming momentarily dis traeted, he ran his finger against the saw, and the severed piece dropped on the other side where his partner was working. That worthy picked it up, and with the casual remark, Bill, you've dropped something, handed it back to it's owner. Bill didn't faint, but it is only owing to the superior burst of speed developed by his part ner that he is not doing time for homicide with extenuating eircom- stances at Thomaston today

IF vain thex tried to coax him to con verse. Months went by until ons morning the prima donna woke with 3 bad sore throat. "5end for the doctor : she cried. for I have to sing tonight" The doctor duly arrived. AS he entered tne N9om the parrot uttered his first and last words.
