nola Tooth Not AIl Go1d.

'I'd hate TO pay that woman's den.
list bills" said a business man to a
friend on a South Side L train the
other day. Across the aisle from the
men was a woman who showed enough
gold every time she opened her mouth
to make man want to leave home
and try his fortune in the Klondike.
Two of her upper teeth had been re-
placed by pieces OF FURNISHED metal,
and one Of her lower teeth also had a
twenty-five karat sheen about it. Her
companion had only one gold tooth,
but she kept it doing the work Of three
by constant smile.
"That's another case OF the old adj
age, All that glitters is not gold, -"
said the business mans friend. cone
Of the latest dental novelties makes
gold teeth possible to anyone at a
small cost and without even sacri.
6cing a healthy incisor to make room
for the metal. For a quarter you can
get a shell that can be stuck over any
front tooth, and with an excuse to
smile you can present regular gold
mine to The public. Actresses first
affected the gold tooth and then the
Yankee man got an idea. In short
time there was an epidemic OF gold
teeth. The novelty man came out
with his plated shells and sold them
like hot cakes. No one utthe dentist
has any kick against the imitation gold
tooth, and as a dazzler it is hard to
beat. That woman's teeth may be
the real stuff, but I believe she can
slip them Off when she wants to and
get them plated when they get tar,
nished. "--Chicago Inter Ocean.

A BUSINESS POINTER.

Several Washington merchants are
afraid to invite the trade of suburban
people for fear it mighS offend some
L their city customers who don't con-
dder it "the proper thing" to be seen
n a store with country people. They
want the cash of country people when
the same can be secured without any
outward sign Of a desire to reach out
Tor it. One of the largest hardware
firms in the city recently refused to
advertise in the columns of the CITI.
ZEN and gave the following reason;
"We're not out after suburban bust.
hess for the reason that we consider
the trade of the people of Virginia and
Maryland not particularly desirable. "

srnrgeon HeIpsd by an Eehe.

No orator ever less needed the aids
Of art than the great London preach
er, Charles H. Spurgeon. and none
ever used them less; but when nature
helped him, not only in himself, but
outside Of himself, he welcomed the
effect, as he had a right to do. One
striking instance of a sermon roin-
forced in this way is related by a
clergyman of the Church of Eng gland,
the Rev. d. A. Doudney.
Mr.. Spurgeon was holding outdoor
meetings in the county Of Hants op.
posite the Isle OF Wight, and one af-
ternoon he preached to a great throng
of people in a beautiful valley near
the market town of HaVant.
His text was from the fifty. first
Psalm. ''Then will I teach trans
gressors thy way" and the sermon
was a Gospel invitation. Tho air was
still, and cloudless sun was sinking
as he approached the end of his dis.
course, while the attentive hearers
caught every word.
Apparently they had not noticed,
carried along as they were by the
sweep Of his powerful voice, that the
valley was the home of echoes. Mr..
Spurgeon had discovered the fact. At
the close of his last appeal, raising HE
voice, he called TO the congregation,
"All things are ready Come 'The
spirit and the bride say comeP and
nature herself accents the heavenly
invitation again and again. Comol
Oomel Come"
The echoes took up the word, and
from side to side the breathless as.
sembly heard the repeated call,
"Comel Comel Oome" till it sank to
q whisper in the distance.
The narrator describes the effect as
''like an electric ehock." It was as
il the preachers eloquent peroration
had 'wakened supernal voices.
We have no written record of the
fruits of the meeting, but there was q
solemnity in the aptness Of its close
that lifted it above mere dramatic ar
tidce or any OF the devices employed
TO trick. Youths Companion.

NOT suPERcILlous,
Only Ordinary Human Feeling Infiu cnoed
the Young woman.

There was something strikingly
pictorial in the appearance Of a young
woman who sat in the upper left hand
corner Of New Orleans trolley car
during one of it's outbound runs. II
was due, no doubt, TO many things
to the aristocratic slenderness Of her
figure; to her wide, dreamy eses, the
exact color of wood violets; to the
great black forest of ostrich plumes
that formed her hat; to the geometric
curve OF the towering collar of her
cape. At any rate, she looked as if
she might have sauntered out of the
pages Of some elegant journal of FASH
iona beautiful denizen of picture
paper land, where skirts always hang
in Just the proper folds and trousers
never bag at the knee. Everybody
looked at her, the men admiringly
and the women coldly, as they always
do when another woman is better
dressed, and she withstood the seru-
tiny with regal composure. She did
not seem aware that anybody else
was present. At last the car neared
her corner, and when she had pressed
the button and the wheels were al
most at a stap dstill she arose calmly
aud glided down the aisle.
She was at the door when the ear
came to q full stop, and, seeing her
staggor slightly from the shock. the
conductor instinctively laid his hand
upon her arm. It was a courteous
aud respectful ACT, and one that might
have saved her from o fall, but the
instant his fingers touched her sleeve
the naughty beauty leaped backward
as if she had seen an appArition. Her
delicate face went pale and her dreamy
eyes blazed.
"Don't touch me, sirp she ex-
claimed. with harshness that shocked
and astonished every hearer.
The conductor was plain, kindly
man, and, flushing with modification
and chagrin, he turned back to his
platform, while the young woman
gathered her sk irts and pWssed swiftly
through the door
"Well I must say" remarked an
elderly man who had taken in the
episode over the top of his newspaper,
"that was about the most painful ex-
hibitIon of superciliousness I ever
witnessed in my life. She seemed to
think she would be contaminated il
that honest fellow touched the hem OF
her garment. Pshawl No wonder the
poor are embitteredw
There was q growl OF approval, and
the conductor thrust smiling face
through the doorway.
Don't blame de young lady,
gents" no said, cheerily. "She ex-
planned it all when she was gettin' off.
She didn't mean nothin'. You see,
she's been vaccinated and has a sore
arm"

a Dogs Recognition ora Song.

A touching little incident OF birth
ilay celebration of Whittier occurred
in connection with the visit of Mrs.
Julia Houston West, the celebrated
oratorlo singer, TO the Quaker poet.
After dinner Mrs. West was asked
to sing, and seating herself at the
piano, she began the beautiful ballad
Of "Robin Adair," singing it, as she
can, with all the longing and heart
break of the words and music in her
voice. She hardly begun before Mr..
Whittier'a pet dog came into the room,
and seating himself by her side watched
Der as if fascinated, and listened With
a delight unusual in an animal. When
she finished he came and put his paw
very gravely into her hand and licked
her cheek.
"Robin takes that as a tribute to
himself" said Mr.. Whittier. "He also
is "Robin Adair."
1t was true. That was the dogs
name, and he evidently considered
that he was the hero OF the song.
From that moment, during Mrs.
Vests visit, he was her devoted at.
tendant He kept by her side when
she was indoors. and accompanied her
when she went out to walk. When
she went away he carried her satche in
his mouth to the gate aud saw her de.
part with every evidence OF reluctance
and distress. Christian Register.

Democracy has but single over

There are several candidates for
each of the various Offices to be
filed by the Police Jury elected
last month. We believe there is
one exception. For the office Of
courthouse keeper the present in
cumbent will not likely have an op-
position. Judge Leopold Hirsch
has been a most faithful guardian Of
the temple of justice and there is
every reason to believe that the
Police Jury will re-elect him. With
out the genial countenance of the
judge to shed an occasional ray of
sunshine the jury-room would be
dull, stale and uninteresting. Were
it not for his benevolent smile the
austere dignity of the upper court
room would offer but little cheer to
unsuccessful litlgants and luckless
violators of the law. The Gazette
pleads earnestly for the reelection
of the judge. No matter from what
standpoint you view it he is entitled
to re- election. If you believe that
to the :tvictors belong the spoils"
the judge will get there on both
feet, for since prehistoric times ne
has been on the winning side, and,
on the other hand, should you be
an advocate Of civil service reform
and believe that merit ought to be
rewarded regardless of political pre-
elections, the judge will be retained
in his present position which he
has filled with answering devotion
10 duty, having been a. all times a
painstaking. accommodating and
diligent official.

Gen. Leon Jastremski has made a
very efficient State Commissioner Of
Agriculture and there seems to be
an earnest desire in all sections of
the State that he be re-appointed.
Gen. Jastremski IS familiar with
every foot of land in Louisiana and
thoroughly understands the needs
of the State. Long before his ap-
pointment to the Office of commits
sioner he was closely connected
with every movement which aimed
at the agricultural and industrial
development of this State. A
man who is eminently practical in all
things and always anxious to assist
in the material and moral advance
ment of his State, he is admirably
equipped to fulfill the important
duties of the Office which he now
holds. The re-appointment of
Gen. Jastremski will not only be
the retention in office of a compe-
tent and energetic official, but it
will be comforting an honor upon a
most worthy citizen.

PUBIC SUMMATION

We are informed that the town
authorities will take steps to enforce
the sanitary ordinances. We have
been told by a member of the
Council that all pr"periy-holders
will he compelled to clean their
premises and to use disinfectants
where needed. This matter has
been too long neglected. The SAINT
tary ordinances have never been
properly enforced and the conse-
quence is that the town is in very
unhealthy condition. The sanitary
laws should not be observed only
once a year. With the approach Of
summer people think Of the danger
of epidemics and spasmodic effor,
is made to clean up the town. The
police should be continually on the
look out for violations of this or
dinance whose rigid enforcement is
necessary to the health of the com
munity. People who are indiffer-
ent to their own health should
not be permitted to endanger the
health Of their neighhors. No man
has right to spread germs OF
disease, to corrupt even the air tina,
all must breathe. The Gazette
hopes that the town authorities will
do their utmost to enforce the sani-
tary laws. No exception should be
made. High and low should be
forced to obey these laws.
1t is a notorious fact that som
people in this town pay absolu tely
no attention to the most ordinary
laws of sanitation. 1t is this class
of citizens that the law is intended
to reach.
