TREATING A TOOTHACHE.
SOW tho Tantalizins Pains May Be
Speedily Allayed.

aow the Tantaizins Pains May Be
Speedily AIlayed.
Toothache is little thing in the
books, but many physicians would
rather meet burglar at the door on
dark night than call to cure
bad toothachc of several days con-
tinuance. Il hypodcrmie of NOR
phine cnly postpones the evil day,
and usually the patient is respect
fully referred to the dentist. The
tooth should not be extracted while
the jaw and gums are inflamcd and
the latter swollen, and it is the ply
slclan's duty to treat the case until
the above conditions are removed.
Always keep small vial containing
the following mixture: Chloroform,
git. X; glycerin, git. X; sat. sol. ac.
carbol., git. x; morphine, or. j.,
with small wad Of absorbent cot
ton. If the offending tooth has a
cavity or decayei surface, saturate
small pellet of cotton with the
above mixture and put into the cavi-
ty or against the decayed surface, as
the case may be. Never pack this
cotton in or the more is the trouble,
but have tho pellet small enc.sh to
enter without crowding. In most
cases this will end the trouble. When
the gums are swollen and tender,
paint two or three times, two min
utes apart, with a per cent solu-
ton of cocaine. The patient may
have been eating a good deal Of
fruit. The tongue and mucous men,
brane of the mouth are pale-sour
stomach--and next day the tooth
ache will return.
Give ten grains Of subcarbonate
OF bismuth and ten grains of phe-
nacetin at once and similar dose
before each of the three followin g
meals, with laxative, if needed, and
stop all fruit for a few days, and it
will not return. The same powder
every two hours with cessation of
fruit eating will stop the persistent,
tormenting neurelgias.-Exchange.

ANCIENT IRISH FORTS.
2iey Are Remnants of the Age of Cy.
clopean Masonry.

cIopean Masonry.
Off the coast Of Ireland, north,
west and south, lies island behind
island. F!w know them, and still
fewer realize the wealth of anti
quarian remains which have lain
hidden there for more thar th.ou-
sand years. First in interest, as in
age, come the defensive works Of
uncertain date, beginning in the
fourth century B. c. Of these the
promontory forts are the simplest in
construction, being defended, often
on three sides, by the high cliffs to-
ward the sea, neccssitating only Il
single line of defense on the land
ward side. They belong to an age
of cyclopcan masonry, when the
stones were piled together, one
above the other, mortarless, but
with power of resistance which
yields only to the hand Of man.
Some of the forts are constructed
in the well known "ring walP' type
to be found throughout the British
isles, central Europe and in Mashon-
aland.
At Fahan, near Bentry, the fort
was obviously residential instead of
being merely useds as in many cases,
for a place of short retreat during
the hasty raids of Danish or earlier
invaders. Here "souterram" is

Entitled 4a a Pardon.

Many anecdotes Of General Sam
Houston are told which show that
his tongue was by no means slow OK
his wit dull. AS General B. had
been financial agent to the peniten-
tiary for a number Of years and
warmly opposed General Houston's
last election as governor Of Texas
he feared he would lose his desirable
Office. He therefore presented pc
tition in due time asking that he
might be retained, his "long and
faithful services" being urged as a
reason for granting the request of
the petitioners.
