people can be as white. as daintily
delicate, as glossy and every whit as
pretty as the teeth of a woman Of
80.
If the teeth can be preserved until
middle age, they will be pretty sure
to last out ones life. The main dan
ger to the teeth comes in youth, when
the teeth are young and not very
strong, and when the enamel is still
tender upon them.
Children whose teeth do not seem
to get strong should eat cereals and
good, wholesome sweets. Good honey
does not hurt the teeth, but strength
ems them, and good maple sugar is
positively muscle and nerve builder
for the teeth as well as for the rest
of the body.

AFEW ODD RULES FOR RAIS.
ING A BOY.

Mothers don't raise your boys in
bandbox. /.
When the lid comes off and they
have to root for a living they will find
the ground hard, and the wind will
cut into their tender hides like prickly
pears into the nose of a new born
calf.
Take the lid off early and permit
the sunshine and breezes to tan their
complexion and harden their muscles;
then when they are forced to bump up
against the stern realities of life they
know how to take hold of the plow
handles and make showing.
Taking the lid off does not mean
that you should send them out into
the streets to be run over by the ice
wagon or to insist upon their falling
into the sewer. It doesn't mean that
your son should be decorated with
cigarette and taught how to swear like
his father does. That will all come
soon enough.
But what the boy needs is air and
room to expand. He doesn't want to
be made "mamma's boy" to such an
extent that he is kept inside as if he
were geranium or a night-blooming
cereus.
A little dash of Christian Science
to the extent of allowing the boy to
believe he is strong and healthy will
go long way toward making him
do SO, if you give him the opportunity
to drink in the pure tonic that is dish
ed up in the open air. No mother
enjoys seeing her son a puny little
fellow, with cheeks like sand lily
and voice like a peedee. Let the
youngster get out in the yard and
tear up few rods Of orchard grass
and kick holes into the azure zone
Let him get rid of few of those war
whoops that lie hidden in the throat
Of every boy.
If he gets his white waist dirt do
not lick the life out of him and send
him to bed.
1t is your fault. You should know
better than to put a white waist on
him. Brown ducking is what he
wants.
The fad who grows up like a hot
house plant has no show with the
one who sleeps up in the garret and
eats cornbread and milk.
Give the boy chance.

BY THE CRATE.

When the days got raw and chilly,
And the nights come down with murk.
And I'm home and playing "horseback'
With the baby after work,
And the hour grows late and eerie.
And the sleepy head bends low,
Then take her and l toll her
Dear old tales Of long ago.
Then I'd like good old fireplace
With the flames all white and rel,
And the shadows swiftly chasing
Through her curls and overhead,
With the corners dark and gloomy,
Then wish that things might he
As they were in my far childhood,
When my dad told tales to me.
presume when she is grown up,
And electric currents heat
Houses in: new tangled fashion,
She will sit and toast her feet,
And long for her far-of childhood,
And the days Of heat by steam,
As long for flames and shadows
And the CRATES romantic CLEAN.
And she'll rock q towhead baby
In her arms, and Grooming low
Sing the songs her mother sings her,
All the s0ngs used to know;
Songs my mother used to sing me,
Groom above my tousled head
When the dark was in the corners
And the flames were white and red.
And she'll wish for hot-air heaters.
Dear romantic old-style things;
Things she knew in this her childhood,
Things to which ones mem'ry clings,
But the world makes all for progress.
Knowing never stay nor wait,
Goes and leaves my spirit sitting
By queer old-fashioned CRATE.

Congressman Sulloway as soon as the
service was over.
He talked little while, and then he
made a number of strenuous efferts to
induce the gigantic statesman to COM

These efforts, which were indirect,
failed. Therefore the young man

The Prevention of Fires

Since the disastrous fire in Baltimore
some people have suggested that precau-
tons against fire should be taken IN
Alexandria, as a huge conhagration could
occur here under certain circumstances
as well as in any other city. For in
stance. should fierce fire start on the
river front during the prevalence OF a
high easterly wind and get beyond the
control of the fremen, there is no telling
where it would stop; aud should blaze
get sufficient Roadway in any other quar-
ter of the city with wind to spread j
the devastation might be appalling
Hence it has been suggested that especia
care should be exercised where ga'o
line or powder is stored. 1t is SAT-
that these dangerous articles are not prop
erly safe-guarded in Alexandria.

Immediate danger of food, but no one
can tell what may occur during the next
week or ten days should warm spell setin.
The recent fall in the temperature had an
appreciable effect on the river last night,
and the stream froze across again. The
ice which had come from above yester-
day packed closely abreast of this city,
and this morning no clear water could
be seen. Later, however, steamers and
tugboats set the ice in motion. Inc
Randall line steamer Wakefield will
leave here tomorrow evening for lower
Machodoc and intermediate river land
ings.
II is expected that when communica-
ton is again established with the
wharves along the lower river it will be
found that nearly all the exposed wharves
have been more or less damaged by the
ice drifting against them. 1t is reported
that all the landings between Alexandria
and Glymont have been damaged. AT
Fort Foote one corner of the wharf is
gone. River View wharf has been par

The Proposed Parade.

A meeting of the George Washington
Birthday Association was held last night
in the Friendship engine house. The
suggestion that the money which has
been collected for the parade be return
ed to the donors and that so far spent
by the committee be paid by the
individual members was not agreed to,
and it was determined to go on with the
preparations for the parade.
During the meeting proposition was
submitted setting forth that in view OF
the fact that a sister city, Baltimore, had
been plunged in distress, that the
proposed parade on the 22d be omitted
this year. that the money which had
been collected from citizens be returned
TO the contributors and that the sum so
far expended by the committee be paid
bv themselves Individually.
Several members thought the COM
mittee should adjourn until another
night before definite action was taken
in order to ascertain the sentiment OF
the people, and others thought it would
be best to ascertain the consensus OF
opinion before the committee proceeded
any further in perfecting arrangements.
After a further interchange of opinion
vote was taken, and these favoring the
resolution were found to be in the
minority-only six voting aye. Hence
the work of the committee will go on.
Those voting in the majority urged thai
the arrangements were too far advanced
to be stopped now, that invitations haC
been sent out and in some cases or
CARNATIONS had purchased new regalla
&c, for the proposed parade.
A dispatch from Washington received
here today stated that the President, oil
account of pressure of public business
has been compelled to decline the invita-
ton to participate in the celebration G
