. Word as to Tooth Brusl1eA
and Their Use.

A tooth brush should not be
too large nor too stiff. The
medium size Or soft quality is
recommended by the leading
Dentists. The proper employ
ment of a tooth brush does not
require the exercise of the same
amount of mucles as the scrub
bing of the floor. The principal
object of brushing the teeth is to
remove the accumulation of food.
The upper teeth should be
brushed downward, and the
lower teeth upward. This
method besides securing the
requisite cleanliness: more
thoroughly than any other way
also encourages the growth of
the gum around the neck of the
teeth. The tooth brushes sold
at Moss Pharmacy answer the
above description and are guar
anteed by them.

No one who is acquainted with it's
good qualities a be surprised at the
great popularity of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. 1t not only cures
colds and grip effectually and per-
manently, but prevents these diseases
from resulting in pneumonia. 1t is
also a certain cure for Group. Whoopl
ing cough is not dangerous when this
remedy is given. 1t contains no
opium or other harmful substance
and may be given as confidently to a
baby as to an adult. It is also
pleasant to take. When all of these
facts are taken into consideration r.
is not surprising that people in foreign
lands, as we'll as at home, esteem this
remedy very highly and very few arg

Ihe document which is the basis of
Inc charge of treason against former
senator Schaumann, father of Eugen
valoemar Schaumann, the assassin of
Governor General Bobrikoff, contains
long preamble, in which it is said
mat as everything is being done to
destroy the present military organiza-
tlon' In order to wipe out Finnish in
stltutions and reduce the duchy to a
state of subsection, it behooves the
whole nation to stand together in de-
tense of it's liberties. 1t proposes a
plan for the organization of rifle COM
panles throughout the country, which
would be constantly in touch, through
local and provincial commissions, with
a central organization and ready for
an emergency. It is charged that
Schaumann's son was the head of a
shooting club which was actually one
OF these rifle companies. The police
say they have discovered that Julius
Lusu, the Viborg agitator, was last
year engaged in carrying out the
scheme, the military instruct ors being
mostly school teachers.

much to give the common people educa-
tional opportunities; he has labored
zealously to make the public school
buildings centers for social betterment.
In his methods Pasteur Wagner is not
aggressive, but pacific, and for this rea-
son has been able to win the approval
and friendship of the prejudiced Cath
Ollie, the prejudiced free-thinker. In adj
dition to hispublic work he devotes much
time to individual help; visits the rich
in their homes if his services are en-
treated there, but most of all loves to
be of cheer to the lowly. The papers
have mentioned how even the unfriended
dead come in for share of his sympathy.
and how he not infrequently follows the
body of a poor person to- it's last resting
place, marching the long miles to the
city burying-ground. No respecter OF
persons, reverent to the old, passion
ately found of children, no hermit in his
nature worship, Pasteur Wagner is a
personality of vital interest and inspira-
ton.
The author OF ten books, but three are
we'll known in this country: "The Sim

strongest appeal. preaching, as it does,

the burdened world just now seems to

THE OLD.TIME PAhADR

marching club reached the zenith Of its
power in the Cleveland-Blaine CAM
paign, and the republican party swung
it's uniformed columns into line in every
section of the country. Small indeed
was the town that could not muster its
torchl1ght brigade. Lacking, most GER
tainly, was the mass meeting, at least in
the eyes Of the public, that was not pre-
coded by the parade, with its accom-
panying music of fife and drum or bugls
corps.
Barbecues have always had peculiar
charm for the hungry public, and the en-
thusiasm with which the muAtitudes
gather upon such occasions is indicative
Of craving not so much for political
knowledge as for the viands which go to
refresh the inner man. The barbecue
has always had stronger hold upon the
south than the north. 1t may almost be-
called democratic institution. But
think it has come to be generally recog-
nized that because one partakes with
genuine relish Of the good things at
democratic or republican barbecue is no
will bear the same stamp as the food.
Modern invention has had much to do
with shaping the features of the cam
paigns, and the button era began several
years ago, when machinery was made
that would turn them out cheaply by the
hundreds of thousands. The develop
ment of the railroads of the country has
had much to do with campaign meth
DDS, and the specials carrying the speak,
ers from ocean to ocean and from the
lakes to the gulf have been feature Of
almost every campaign since in the
eighties. Mr.. Bryan made the most re-
markable tour of the country ever un-
dertaken and successfully carried out by
any candidate or political speaker. A.
remarkable feature of the Mckinley
Bryan campaigns was the pilgrimages
which were made on fast specials to Can

full valley located about 40 English
miles east of Trondhjem Nearly all
the land in the settlement is owned
by company of capitalists, and there
has always been more or less friction
between the proprietors and the ten
ants. Now the proprietors are labor
ing under dangerous financial embar-
assments, and the tenants have held a
mass meeting and agreed to offer about
100000 for most of the ground; but
no offer has been made for some fac
tories and copper mines which the
company is exp ected to run.
In the governments budget for the
coming year it is estimated that the
Kongsberg silver mines will yield the
government net surplus of $39 1000.
1t is proposed to extract the silver by
a new method, instead of smelling the
ore. The change would cost $l4, 900
for the first year, but later on the
profit would be increased. 1t is esti-
mated that the forests of the mines
will give the government a revenue OF
$1,000, as compared with $4,000 for
the current year. The decrease is due
to curtailment of the output on ac-
count of the low prices of timber and
timber products.
Bjornsons new drama, "Daglanet,"
(The Land of Day., represents the
struggle between the good, but slow,

two forces are represented by father

for supremacy. The father finally
realizes that modern life has many SUI

Citation is effected between father and
son, that is, between the old and the
new state of things. The poetic beauty
of the new book is unquestionable.

of the costume. but this is but the
craze of moment.
Yellow, green, bronze and art shades
prevail in millinery as they do in dress.
Taking 1t all round, millinery is rather
pretty, though it apes the tendency of
the dress of the moment to be rather
heavy. Once more we shall wear huge
Josephine muffs of ermine, sable and
chinchilla. The full length, as well as
the three-quarter length redingote is

The fancy for simplicity is shown in
the craze for the princess robe. This
fashion will never become common, for

OF the great fashion authorities there
IS an inclination for ultra simplicity
In spite of the beautiful trimming and
fabrics at their disposal. There bids
lair to be a return to the Puritanical
era, though it will not be to denote
our dlsapproval Of beautiful and sump-

change and certain coquetry and chic
which dominate French clothes.
