miles east of Elma, in logging camp,
where Lambert was then employed.
This discovery gave Lambert the idea,
and he then and there determined to
find the whole alphabet. AS fast as
he found a letter thereafter he studied
the nature of the tree, and endeavored
to ascertain how it grew into fantastic
shapes, and investigate also the rela-
ton of the soil to such growtbs.
This study has been carried so far
that Lambert now considers himself
able to tell by merely glancing at a
tree whether it is worth while to
search among its roots or branches for
a letter.

in securing letters from tree growths,

at Elma, Washington, possesses a most
unique curiosity. For three years he
has been laboring with tireless watch
fulness to secure each of the letters
of the English alphabet from the acct
dental growth shapes he could find
in the woods. He has two or three
each of the letters, and is able to form
one frst-class and almost perfect lot
of twenty-six letters from his complete
collection.
Three years ago Mr.. Lambert found
his first letter A. 1t was very large
weighing over 100 pounds. He cut it
down, but was unable to carry it out
of the woods. This letter was vine

ST. Petersburg Needs Dentists.

st. Petersburg is slowly becoming a
city of toothless people. The Russian
capital should be, and eventually will
be, removed to Moscow mainly on that
account. This, at least, is the opinion
of a prominent merchant of the city
on the banks of the Neva, who says
he has heard much talk along that
line in the last few years. There are
two reasons for this condition. The
first, M. Zorokoff gives is the atmos-
phere of the capital city. The vapors
that arise from the marshes of the
Neva have the effect of producing the
decay of the teeth. The second rea-
son is the scarcity of good dentists.

Smoking Good for Soldiers.

An interesting experiment was tried
during the recent Swiss military ma
neuvers to discover whether smoking
was beneficial or injurious to troops on
the march. The trial resulted COM
pletely in favor of smoking. Instead
of destroying discipline, it preserved it,
and it was discovered that the troops
who had been permitted to smoke en-
route proved less sensible to fatigue
and were fresher and less tried at the
finish than their more abstemious
