LA COMPANIA
The Montgomery advertiser., 1901-11-10

One October day, as rode along a ridge of the Cumberland Mountains, rich and warm in the brilliant gold and crimson of the autumn woods, I caught up with a couple on horseback. The woman was n vouns "mountaineeress," arrayed in a hat that might have been plucked from an old-fashioned flower garden. and in clothes which paIed the intellectual glories of the frosted forest And she was not bad looking withai. being in the very flush of youth and health.
 The man was mountain type. green and gangling. and his new store clothes sat on his angular frame as though they had other duties which they preferred.
 When I said lon horseback I should have said lon a horses back" for they were mounted on the same steed. and the man was behind. Probably this added to the impression of extreme awkwardness he gave, for his feet dangied out of his trouser legs and swung idly at the sport of the winds.
 As rode alongside and sreted them they biushcd and showed such unmistak- able signs of embarrassment that be- came curious and interested, and con- ciuded to journey with them for brief season.
 If I may" I said in half apology. T will ride with you until I set out of the woods. I am going to Squire Martins, and this is a new way to me-" "weli. I reckon we kin show you the way right thar. mister" responded the young man, recovering his seif-possession quickly when spoken to. We air goin' -t~. f aS4fT Ax nA nudging the young lady in the back and chuckling to himself sleefuiiy, though se mewhat nervo1sly.
 The girl blushed and staninered, and l came to the rescue.
 "IndeedT' I said. "That will suit ex- .actly; I'll have company and have guides | as weli.''
 T reckon you will. mister" said the
 young man, and there was a lull in the conversation.
 Any thing going on at the 'squire'sT' asked. after a minute or two. Thar will be alter we git thar. woun'' thar. Lizy?" chuckied the young man
 again nudging the giri in the back. .I wisht you'd stop that" she said. pet

 He laughed, and 1 looked my interro-
 ga ton without mentioning 1t. Its all right mister" he explained ..Me and Lizy is goin' down to get sp!iced
 aln't we. Lizy?" and he slipped his arm
 around h.- waist and gave her vigorous hug. She responded with sounding slap | on his jaw, and he winked at me with a delightful expression of enjoyment that was irresistibly sincere.

MOUTH HYGIENE.

The mouth Is certainly the center of the system most favorable to the matching, development and preservation of microblc organisms. 1t contains moisture, heat air gnd products remaining in the cavity it. ss If. or remains of food. all of which are conditions that, according to recent re- searches. favor the reproduction of bac- teria-temperature of 90 to 35 degrees cen trigrade. oxygen contained in the air, aer- obes organic remains, alkali and acidity.
 It may, therefore, be said that hygiene of the mouth occupies an important place in the propnylaxis or disease. The ignor. ance of the public as to these facts can only be explained by it's indifference, for out of series of POO persons of every about 100 were found who took care of their mouths.
 Apart from the special care necessltated y decayed teeth, to which, without doubt, are due most of the septicomic accidents it is necessary to assure asepsia of the mouth by means of antiseptics. Not that

are from good houses and which are most charmingly elegant.
 The first is of velvet of deep purplish red, trimmed with sable. A deep sable cape covers the shoulders and is finished with black guipure lace in pointed design. Arc und the bottom of the coat Is an ap- pliaue of the same lace. The other gar ment is of a fine beige cloth, trimmed with high collar of fur and bands of braid. Still another coat that is made in the same shape and length is of gray cloth. trimmed with lines of black. which give @ most charming effect.
 The long half-fitted redingote, with fan cy collar and revers, Is also in fashion and is the correct demi-saison wrap. and is quite classic in its folds. It is made in lightweight and waterproof cloth, and can also be lined with fur, and have fur Gpl- lar. revers and cuffs If desired for mid- winter wear.
 The short jacket in bolero of Eton shape will be again fashionable. and while not nearly so new a style as the long coat Is rather Smarter and more youthful in appearance. The newest of these short coats are now made with long pointed waistcoats, which give much longer waist line than ever. Tn velvet there are any number of these short coats which are immensely smart, and are trimmed with the most expensive furs and real lace.
 The waistcoat of ivory panne, embroi- dered in gold, is one of the newest trim mings. The double capes and faiglon col lars are made of these same ivory panne, with the gold braiding. The skirts to be worn with these short coats are made with flaring fiounce and are trimmed with folds of the cloth.
 One costume in shaggy camers hair has hood collar and is trimmed with deen brown applique. This costume IS made with bolero and has deep cuffs of velvet.
 Fur is to be in great demand, and fox lynx, sable and ermine skins are made into collars and capes and a sable cape is very necessary in any modern. trous- seau.
 The heads and tails arc used in trim ming. but there are many capes and col | lars made absolutely plain. Fur coats are most fashionable. and some are long, the same models are used as for cloth coats. A ruff or boa is now necessary with ev- l cry out-of-door costume. For the moment,
 the ones made of cut tulle chiffon or os.
 trich feathers are the smartest. but those of fur are to be the correct style for mid
 winter.
 One of the fads of the moment is the
 wearing of natural violets. Punches of
 these fragrant blossoms are pinned on the
 hats. half hidden in the crepe bows on the mourning bonnets. but the violets are
 worn only by persons in mourning be it i understood.
 Another expensive fancy is for the fine applique medalllons of lace. in violet pat
 tern. on the black net gowns but the handwork and applique of today are al- ] most beyond belief In their beauty of
 workmanship and expense.

varieties of dentifrices are lacking. but a iudicious selection Is necessary, for in the first place those which are hurtful must be avoided.
 The composition of dentifrices has un- dergone a change since the declaration of war upon the microbe. Originally these preparations were used mainly to keep the mouth clean, to whiten the teeth. and at the same time to harden the gums. They answered their purpose to a cer- tain extent in regard to the first point because essential oils, which gave a con- siderable power in destroying bacteria, entred into their composition. Alkaline powders. however. as we'll as dentifrices of which alcohol s the base, are calculat- ed to dry the mouth

President Lincoln, in the first year
of the civil war. prophesied that, il the
secession movement could be promptly
suppressed, the United Stats would
have population of 3,208.O0o in
1900.
He based this prediction on the per-
centage of increase in population from
1890 to 1860. The increase fron 1890
to 1900 was little over 35 per cent.
From 1900 to 1910, the increase was
3G.O5 per cent. There was a decline in
the ratio of increase in the next dec
ade, but in 1850 there was an increase
of 35.S7 per cent, and in 1860 an in
crease of 1888 per cent, making an
average decennial increase Of 34.61 per
cent in population for the seven y
years from 1890 to 1860.
Assuming that this ratio of increase
would be maintained. Mr.. Lincoln pre-
dicted that the United S ates would
have population of 42,323 900 in 1870,
b6,s67 900 in 1880, 1851, 900 in 1890.
lO3, POS, 900 in 1900. 13S,91S,0O0 in 1910.
1856, 1884 900 in 1920, and 251 ,6sO.0oO in
1880.
But the civil war came. and the per-
centage of increase from 1850 to 1879
fell to 22.63 per cent. The perc ntage
of increase went up to 80 per cent in
1850, dropped to 24.S3 per cent in 1890.
and to 21.S3 per cent for the deca lie
ending with 1900.
The population in 1870 failed to
reach Mr.. Lincolns estimate by 3,76i,-
900. In 1880 the population wss
G,S11 900 below the estimate. IA 055 900
below in 1890, and 26,913 COD low in
1900. The ratio of increase for the last
decade was the lowest in ninety years.

For stains ON Marble.

In the treatment of stains much de-
pends on what has caused them. Mar
BILE is one of the most difficult sub
stances to deal with when removing
stains. Even the weakest acid will
attack the marble, and should not be
employed except in the hands of an
expert. says the Ladies' Home Journal.
The following treatment will remove
many kinds of stain from marble: Dis
solve half pint sal soda in one pint
of boiling water; stir into this half a
pint of quicklime and enough whiting
or fuller's earth to make a paste like
thick cream. Spread this on the mar
BILE and let it remain two days or long
er. Scrape off and wash clean. If all
the spots are not removed this treat
ment may be repeated until the mar
BILE is quite clean.

Thirty-seven Chlldren.

Salzburg, Austria, now puts in a
claim for the record birth rate of a
single family. Johann Steiner, a farm
er, married his wife, Martha, nineteen
years ago, when he was so and she was
25. In the nineteen years since they
have had thirty-seven children-trip-
lets three times and twins twelve
times, while the babies have come
along singly four times. OF the chill
dren thirty-four are living. and they
are all healthy and normal The
thirty-seventh child was born couple
of weeks ago, on the day on which
the father celebrated as his 72d birth
day The mother is still in robust
health. Who knows of record to beat
this?

He left his old life behind him, as
though 1t was a thousand miles away.
He wore what the college boys had
once dubbed "hand-me-downs" and a
cheap suit of that clothing. His per-
sonal belongings were all in small
and cheap trunk. The room he oc-
cupied was like a dry goods box,
walls. floor and door of unpainted
pine. A strip or two Of rag carpeting
partially covered the floor There was
cheap iron bed. cheaper table and
washstand covered with white oil
cloth. He was expected to wait on
himself" which meant to fill his water
pitcher from the cistern and make his
own bed except on Saturday when the
housekeeper from below took posses
sion and cleaned things up.
From the window at which he wrote
on O small table with wobbling legs
the panorama of life unfolded to Ce-
ell Van Vliet's wondering eyes. He saw
the daily routine of life among the
great struggling masses, he saw suffer-
ing, merriment, misery, death and the
happiness of the youthful and careless.
In the small yard below the German
WOuldh Spdueu anu SOWeu SeeQ ana set
out plants and vines. He often went
down to help her and was rewarded by
hot bread and coffee. He took long
long walks and lunched or dined at
wayside places Sometimes he rode on
hay wagons passing in and out and
sometimes he walked miles under the
starlit heavens. almost feeling his way
i the dark and yet with conscious
ness that never before had he been
awake.
In n month the old life had fallen
from him. The charm of simplicity
was with him day and night. This
return to primordial things had awak-
ened the truest life in him-and while
he grew more robust and the color
came into his face, he drank in real
life as thirsty man takes long
draughts of water.
