Sugar and the Teeth.

There is prevalent notion that
if children are allowed to eat SUI
gar they will have bad teeth as a
consequence. There is no founda-
ton whatever for such a notion.
The negroes of the West Indies
areexcessive consumers of sweets.
They eat an enormous amount OF
sugar-cane, molasses and raw su-
gar. Yet these people have par
ticularly fine teeth. Whatever
other injuries sugar may be capa'
BILE of doing to the human system,
it is very certain that it does not
do any injury to the teeth, either
ia old or young persons. Medical

A HEDcERoW ARIsTocRAT.
Interesting Points About the Well
Known Sassafras Which May
Be New to Some,

An aristOcrat Of the hedge
rows is the sassafras, the buds of
which have recently burst into
clustered posies Of delicate green
ish yellow bloom. 1t is an Amer
lean cousin of the camphOr tree,
the cinnamon and the laurel, says
the New York Times.
Comparatively few of the many
to whom sassafras is household
word know that il bears flowers.
These appear simultaneously with
the first tender leaves, and, being
of the same color with them. are
apt to be overlooked by all but the
nectar-seeking bees. Yet these
blossoms are among the lOveliest
sights of our spring, contributing
much to the beauty Of landscapes.
The aromatic little tree was
highly esteemed by our fore
fathers and served them numerous
uses now all but obsolete. The
bark was employed in variety of
WAYS in medicine; the pith sup
piled a mucilage from which an
eye wash was made and as for the
wood itself it was thought to be so
repugnant to bugs that sassafras
bedsteads were said to be immune
from insect pests.

Clergymen Who Have Been Rewarded
for Their Ready Wit and
Righteousness.

Canon Melville, who died the
other day in his ninety-second
year, owed his earliest promotion
to a pun. When the late earl of
Dudley, who knew Mr.. Melville
sufficiently to remember that his
Christian name was David, had a
living at his disposal, he received
a letter containing only the words:
"LOrd, remember David. The
earFs reply was no less terse and
Scriptural: "ThOu art the MANI
Perhaps the earliest instance of
ecclesiastical promotion won by
pun is that of curate named Jo-
seph, who was prompted by Swift
to take this text for a sermon
preached in St Patrick's cathe-
dral. Dublin. before the vicerOy,
Butler" duke of Ormond: yet
did not the chief Butler remember
Joseph, but forgat him"
Rev. DR.. Mountain, who was the
son of a beggar, owed nearlyever
step of his successive promotions
in great part to his righteousness,
and won the last step of all by a
single jest. When he was con-
suited as bishop of Durham by
George III. as to the fittest person
to fill the vacant archi-episcOpal
see of York. he replied: "Sir,
hadst thou faith as a grain of mus
tard seed. thou wOuldst say to this
Mountain dramatically striking
his breas0, BE thou removed and
cast into this sea (see).' That
George IL. should so understand
and appreciate the joke as to ac-
cept its suggestion is perhaps the
strangest part of the story.
Apropos of puns, promotion and
the see of York, here is a good
story of living given by an arch
bishop of York in reward for an
impertinent personal pun. The
archbishop, Sir William Dawes,
entertained his clergy to dinner
shortly after the death Of his wife,
Mary, who appears to have been
regular Mrs. PrOudie at once to
his grace and to the diocese. At
dinner the archbishop apOlOgized,
with a sigh, for things not being in
the apple-pie order that prevailed
when his dear, dead wife. Mary,
was alive. Being himself an invet-
crate punster, he added, with a sad
shake of his head: "She. indeed,
was Mare Pacificumw A curatc
who knew too well what a tartar
the deceased lady was, rejOined:
cave, my lord, hut she was first
Mare Mortuum" and was absO-
Iutely and Immediately rewarded
by the archbishop for this impcr-
tinent pm with a living of $500 n
wear.
