Gettysburg at School:
Last Monday Miss Raffenberpel

Last Monday Miss Raffenberge
and the Eighth Grade of tn
Bl kfoot school received a pleas
ant surprise in the presentation tt
them by Percy Jones, of a pic
ture of the Battle of Gettysburg
together with record of the
movements of the armies. The
painting is about two feet by four,
and represents the final struggle
in that memorable fight. The
class is just studying the Civil
War, and this picture brought to
them by the son of a veteran who
participated in this and many
other battles of the Civil War,
added an interest to every cam
paign. The class wish to express
their hearty appreciation of this
gift, and to say that it is valued
the more because it was the treas
ure of one who participated In the
battle on the losing side, but who
within their own recollection bore
the flag to the fartherest point on
the globe to uphold the power and
dignity of united country, cap
able of giving freedom to the
humblest individual Of other
lands.
On Wabash Avenue, Chicago,
is a cyclorama of the closing hour
of the fight at Gettysburg, which
is visited by people from all over
the world, and so realistic is the
scene that as the visitors come
out in view of the awful struggle,
they usually stop as if taken by
surprise; while it is no uncommon
occurrence to see them step back
a pace or two as if on the point of
retreating.
Through the film of smoke that
hides the sun. one sees the Gray
advancing on the Blue; the blaze
of the guns, the smell of the gun.
powder, the dead, the dying, the
broken cannon, the crippled
horses, all combine to make the
visitor feel that he has. got into
the wrong place. But the still
ness of the place rivets him to the
spot, and his sympathy goes out
to the boys and old men advanc-
ing on the stone wall where lot

CROWN OF A TOOTH.
Il L. Composed of the Hardes'

II IL Composed of the Hardest
Known Organic Substance.
The crown of a human tooth is Gov
cred by a brilliant white cap OF ex-
treme density, the enamel, which is
not only the hardest tissue Of the hui
man body. consisting, as II does. OF 96.5
per cent OF mineral and OF 3.5 per cent
of animal matter. but also the hardest
known organic substance.
The whole Of the friction entailed by
the masticatlon Of food falls upon the
cutting edges of our teeth. and these
are protected by an extra thickness OF
enamel SO hard is this that only in
extreme cases. in persons who live on
very hard food requiring much masti-
cation, has It been known TO wear off.
This enamel cap is composed OF a
vast number Of microscopic rods, one
end OF each Of which rests upon the
dentine, and the other reaches the free
cutting surface. These rods vary in
shape and position, some being five
and others six sided. some straight and
others sinuous, but they are all arrang-
ed so that the maximum degree Of
compactness and strength is secured.
