A Son and 100000.

Senator Dolliver is quoted in Sue
cess as saying:
Money making is the cheapest
kind of success. 1t doesn't indicate
the highest kind Of development by
any means. I will give you simple
illustration: A friend Of mine, pro-
fessional man of high mental attain
ments, had been offered salary of
$4,000 year by corporation epgag-
ed in transportation. He was strong
ly tempted to takeit, fer he is working
for the government at salary Of only
$4,000. He admitted to me, however,
that he is capable of far greater use-
fulness in his present work than he
would be in the employment Of the
railroad. Thereupon Istrongly advis-
ed him to reject the larger offer, and
he has done SO.
"But money is helpful factor in
life" the writer urged, "ald is con-
sidered indispensable nowadays in
climbing up the ladder
"Well," he replied, s.if [ had a son
and 100000, would keep them
apart" Sc

piled, for heroes are needed even more
in peace than in war. 1t is said that
truth is stranger than fiction" aud
it could be said with equal truth that
fiction is more interesting and takes q
stronger hold On most people than
"truth"-the reality-for which rea-
son I fear that the true stories Of my
"Two Heroes" whioh I got in both
cases from eye.witnesses, will be less
interesting if they were the pure crea-
tion of some story writer.

FRANK c. CASSIDY.
A Soldier in Prison, Who Sacrificed FiIaI
Affection TO his Sense of Honor.

For an. introduction to my hero, I
must take my readers to Northern
prison towards tho close of orr late
civil war. Among the Confederate
prisoners there held was a young
Irishman, whether an officer or not I
don't know, whose name was Frank G.
Cassidy. His name I must give, for
it is worthy to live. He had left his
parents in New York just before the
outbreak Of the war 20 come and live
with an uncle in Beanfort dist,iot, as
it was then called, Seuth Carolina.
South Carolina was to be his home,
and when the war began he espoused

Chinese Dentists ra;ii Teeth viii tt:siei;r,
Fingers.

A novel account of the manner in
which Chinese dentists operate on
their patients is contributed By 6
German naval surgeon who has just
returned from Pekin.
|, They use, he says, neither pincers
nor any other surgical instruments
such as are used in Europe, employ
ing instead their fingers for the pur-
pose of extracting teeth. This diff
cult operation they perform with a
dcxterity and skill that might well
excite the envy of their American and
European colleagues. The tooth
which is to De extracted is grasped by
the thumb and index finger and IS
then pulled out. the force necessary
for such work equivalent to 100, $50
and sometimes 100 kilogrammes.
The Chinaman who decides to be-
come dentist practices this feat
from his sixteenth year by pulling
out from an ebony plank ivory pegs
Of various sizes, which have been
firmly fixed in it. In this way he ac-
quires surprising knack, so that it
becomes easy for him to draw out
molar or wisdom tooth without ever
being obliged to make q second at
tempt. That his patients suffer dur
ing the operation is admitted, but it is
claimed that their pain is of very brief
duration.
For the purpose of cleaning his pa
tients' teeth the Chinese dentist uses
powder made from the bones of cutie
fish, which he applies by means Of
small bamboo instruments. His cure
for toothache is pill of opium and
some oil of mint, which is to be rub
bed on the jaws.
Of the art of filling teeth with gold
or any o,her metal he is profoundly
ignorant, and whenever he has to deal
with decayed tooth which he cannot
remove he satisfies himself by filing
it with paste made of ordinary pow

HITS OUT At GOAL BARONS
Q. r. Fl. REFUSES TO HAUL CROWS
NEST COAL To AMERICAN
BOUNDARY
BREACH OF CONTRACT CLAIMED
In Order to Get Their Goods Over
the Line. Mine Owners May
Build a New
Road.

Now that discussion on the Mellen-
Robin deal has been postponed for a
rev days, the Canadian Pacific Is en-
ploy1ng itself by throwing the hooks"
into the Crows Nest Coal company
company Since the owners of the coal
deposits decided to come to st. Paul for
the purpose of securing a better market
for their goods, the Canadian Pacific has
ADOPTED a policy of hostility toward it's
former friends, men who shared with
the company the profits accruing from
the rich and cheaply obtained coal dis
tr1ct. The railroad did not own the
mines, but was in fair way to do so
with the exorbitant rates it was exacting
for haulage and warehousing charges
The worm finally turned, and hence
forth great pogtion of the products Of
the mines will come over the American
border
At first the Canadian Pacific did not
seem to care, but when a deal was con-
summated, arranging facilities for the
shipping of the coal over the border, the
company came to time. Announcement
was made Of large additions to be made
to the rolling stock, and the service was
to be improved in as many ways, with a
presumptive reduction IN the rates. This
sop did not tempt the alienated coal
owners, and now the Canadian Pacific
has again shown it's tenth and has de-
clared that 1t will not haul the coal to
meet the Great Northern spur, now under
contemplation. The excuse given is that
the coal men are under agreement to
