This kind is considered poisonous in
Europe. Some puffball mushrooms pos

way for surgical operations. An edible
fuEgus is raised in Naples by putting
a lot OF coffee grounds in the cellar, the
mushrooms soon appearing. An Asiatic
species Is employed for razor strops; 1t
to act on steel. This is the Polyporus
souamosus. 1t is cut from an ash tree
in autumn, dried, f1attened in press
and sliced, the slices being glued upon
wood. It was used anciently in this
way.

CARE OF THE TEETH.

The following rules have been printed
and circulated by the education depart
nent IN ireland to managers and teach
ers Of national schools. Rules recon-
mended by the School Children's Com
mittee of the British Dental association
and circulated for the information Of
managers and teachers Of national
schools in Ireland.
Without good teeth there cannot be
good mastication.
Hence the paramount Importance Of
sound teeth.
Clean teeth do not decay.
The importance of sound first set Is
as great to the child as sound second
set is to the adult.
Food left on the teeth ferments. and
the acid formed produces decay.
Decay leads in time to pain and the
total destruction of the tooth.
The substance of the following rules
should therefore be impressed constant
ly upon the children:
/. The teeth should be cleaned at least
once daily.
g. The best time to clean the teeth Is
after the last meal.
3. A small tooth brush with etiff
bristles should be used. brushing up
and down and across, and inside and
outside and between the teeth.
4. A simple tooth powder, or little
soap and some precipitated chalk taken
up on the brush, may be used II the
teeth are dirty or stained.
g. 1t is good practice to rinse the
mouth out after each meal.
g. All rough usage of the teeth, such
as cracking nuts, biting thread, ETC.,
should be avoided, but the proper use
Of the teeth in chewing is good for
them.
z. When decay occurs it should be at
tended to long before any pain results.
1t is the stopping of a small cavity that
is of the greatest service.
In 10000 children's mouths examined.
so in every 100 required skilled operativ
treatment.
The temporary teeth are liable to the
same causes of decay as the perma-
nent ones, and equal care should be
taken of them. 1t Is astonishing little
or no attention Is paid to them, owing
to the fact that as they are destined
soon to be lost and give place to the
second set. parents think it is un-
necessary to attempt to preserve them.
The parents are anxious that the an
ticipated second set shall be regular
and beautiful, that no deformity may
exist, that no crowded teeth shall have
to be extracted. that no tedious opera
ton for regulating shall be necessary
and that there may be no unusual liza
bility to decay. The very best way
is to pay strict attention to the pre-
servation Of the temporary teeth. II
is not the design OF nature that the
first set shall be lost by the destruc.
ton of the crowns. but by the destruc.
ton Of the roots. Take care OF the
crowns and the roots will take care OF
| themselves.
This crowded condition renders the
| permanent teeth unusually liable t
decay owing to greater difficulty II
! cleaning. Parents can aid greatly ir
| preserving the crowns Of children'i
teeth by seeing that they are carefully
cleaned several times daily. and pro

ON THE SPECIAL TRAIN.
On the night when the presidential
party left Atlanta for Tuskegee the
two men had made no arrangements to
go on the train. They did not care to
announce who they were. They got on,
nevertheless, found sleeping quarters in
the front Of the dining car. utilized the
blankets to be found and went to sleep.

leaving no room for some OF the dining
car people to sleep. Some comment was
made, but the mysterious men quietly
kept their places and slept comfort
ably. The next morning the walters
were in bad humor from loss Of sleep.
After that the detectives found other
quarters at night.
For long time during the war with
Spain three or four city detectives and
a secret service man were on duty at
the White house. This was during the
period when the president continued his
tri-weekly receptions in the east room
to the public. There was some danger
then that cranks might attempt harm.
receptions until the war had closed
and work crowded upon him so heav-
lily that he was forced to give all his
time to his Office and to the hundreds Of
matters before him. In addition to
these receptions, which presented good
chances for cranks, the president fire.

day. generally accompanied by q men,
Der Of his cabinet. Detectives were not
with him, and If there was danger he
was often exposed to it.
During the war there was no unpleas-
ant incident at the White house grow
ing out Of the visits of suspicious char.
acters. The detectives closely scanned
all visitors. Sometimes the president
received as many as thousand people
at receptions, but all Of them were pat
riotic Americans, loving and respecting
their president. Every visitor who in
any way resembled a Spaniard or q for
eigner of southern birth was watched
by three OF four sets Of keen eyes. The
president was probably not aware that
detectives were in the White house. The
arrangements for them were made by
the late Major Moore and Secretary
Porter. who felt that it was best to
have the men around. There were sew
eral times stories Of suspicious people
around the White house at night. and
of an attempt to poison the spring from
which the White house gets its supply
of water. None Of these stories were
true

with the president, who had stopped

and also by one Of the secret service
men, while the others watched. The
president did not have time to finish
the reception and literally had to be

throng, the members Of which had lit

by the caterpillars as protection for their
