Grating Dentists:

The travelling dentists who So
journed with Savonburg people
about five weeks and decamped for
fresher fields one week ago last
Thursday, will not be welcomed with
that degree of enthusiasm with
which they were received should
they again drive stakes here.
From various sections of the coun-
try come distressing stories, related
by those who planked out their good
silver dollars, III amounts varying
from $500 to $1,000, and in return
therefor received highly polished
copper plates and flllings which cor
rode, crack, and in numerous instanc-
es have dropped out of the victims
mouths.
In some cases crowns were slapped
upon the teeth before the nerves in
the teeth had been killed, and many
heretofore pleasant countenances
have given away to the rigid lines of
anguish and pain. 1t is no manner
exaggersting to say that there is
weeping and wailing and gnsshing
of teeth. ."-Savonburg Record.

Old Bachelors Fined

In Argentina a man is supposed
to have arrived at the proper age
for taking a wife when he is twenty
years old. The man who does not
marry at twenty is fined S. month
for every month he remains unmar-
RED until he is thirty, when the fine
is $40 a month until he is thirty
five, when. it is increased to $50 a
month, and remains at that figure
for fifteen years.
II at fifty the man is an incorrig-
ible bachelor, he has to pay $50 b
month, and continues to do 80 until
he is seventy five, should be live SO
long. After that age the state real
ICES that his value in the marriage
market is limited, and he is fined
only $40 year, and even that pay
ment ceases should he live to be
eighty. Even if man has married
and has the misfortune to be wild
over, the state still declares that he
must not remain welded to his wife's
memory longer than three years, or
he must pay for the privilege.
The only condition under which II
man is exempt from the fine is if he
has proposed three times in a year and
been refused each time. That, how
ever, would be such sad confession
of lack of charm on the part of the
man that he would not be likely to
admit it, For the privilege, there
fore, of remaining unmarried, man
would have to pay, supposing he
lived his allotted period of seventy
five years, no less than $13, 700, and
though a wife would cost more than
that, it is only cynic who would
say bachlorhood is cheap at the price.

separate, and one party make
racket. which would start the watch
man on a run. BY the time they
reached the spot where one band had
been, the other gang would be raising
a disturbance three or four blocks
away, aud Of course they would have
another run for nothing. This was
kept up most Iall night. Some one
stretched a wire across the sidewalk
aud then raised disturbance couple
blocks away by humping the walk
with a board; away went Waterman
