Cost OF English Fox Hun ting.

The figures relating to fox hunting
in Britain are interesting and show
that large amount of money is an
nually expended on what is considered
by some as barbarous practice and
by its followers as the finest form OF
hounds in the United Kingdom-lSo
in England, twenty-six in Scotland
and fifteen in Ireland, and these packs
consist of 5000 couples of hounds. and
they necessitate the employment OF
100000 horses of the value of 5,OOO.-

Frenchman Would Tax Kisses.

Certain legislators in France are
talking of imposing several new taxes.
and political opponent suggests that
they put kisses on the schedule of the
articles to be taxed
A statistician, he points out. has
calculated that 1883 07 kisses are
given in France every day, and, If
these figures are correct, the national
treasury would receive a large amount
annually even though only a small tax
was imposed on every kisser.
He claims, however, that children
who kiss their mother should be ex.
empt from taxation. and that ten times
the ordinary tax should be imposed
on men who kiss married women.

TEETH OF GEORGE WASHINGTON
Interesting Particulars Which Have
Recently Come to Liqht,

recently Tome 10 Light.
George Washington teeth were
made from hippopotamus' and ele-
plants ivory
We know this from the records left
by his own particular dentist John
Greenwood, who, during the latter
years of our national hero. made sew
eral false sets for the general. These
pleased him SO much that on Jan. 6,
1893, he wrote from Mt. Vernon to
DR.. Greenwood, saying: If you should
remove to Connecticut, | should be
glad to be advised of it and to what
place, as | shall always prefer your
services to that of any other in the
line OF your present profession"
There is in existence a letter from
George Washington, which shows in
what esteem he held his dentist. We
give copy of it in full:
Philadelphia, February 16 1871.
"Sir: Your letter of the 9Th and
the box which accompanied it came
safe to hand. The contents of the lat

old oncs-and am sir.
"Yr Very Hble. Servt..

This is one of four letters that DR..
Greenwood left to his children in his
will. The other three letters from
Washington are in the possession of
descendants of his family. In let
ter written in 1860 by Isaac John
Greenwood to DR.. Taft the writer
says:
There is a pair of false jaws with
human teeth on now in the head of
President Washington, in the tomb at
Mt Vernon made by my father, John
Greenwood, in 1893. and they are
made with the bone gums think
