BODY IN ICE FIVE YEARS.
Remains Of Norwegian Fisherman Is
Found on Behrinu Sea island.

Had Ole Sjostron's tomb OF ice on
an arctic island in the Behring sea
remained undisturbed 100000 years, at
the end of that ponderous stretch Of
time the face and form OF Ole would
have looked as natural and life-like as
at the moment of the fsterman's
death
Fiva years ago this young Nor.
wegian, Sjostron, disappeared from
Baranoff station. Nobody knew what
became of him, and finally people
ceased to wonder. A few weeks ago
the body was found completely i'm
bedded in the ice and so thoroughly
preserved that not even the slightest
indication of change had set in.
The barkentine City of Papeete has
arrived from Baranoff and the news
of this remarkable discovery was
brought by her first mate, Knute Pet
erson.
Five years in the ice," said Peter
son, has not made bit of difference
in his appearance. When they found
him he looked as II, asleep, but, sure
enough, he was cold in death-even
more so than the ordinary dead man.
They suppose that he lay down on the
glacier while intoxicated and fell
asleep and that after he had frozen
to death the ice formed over him."
Strange as this story may seem, the
incident is not strange to those who
know the arctic icefields. Bodies of
the mammoth have been found SINH
larly imbedded in the ice.
The sailors information about the
finding of Sjostron's body is meager,
but it is presumable that, instead OF
being caught and imprisoned in the
glacial ice, the fisherman died on the
soft soil Of the tundra and that his
body became covered up and frozen
with it.-Sau Francisco Chronicle.

Cultivate the Memory.

Many people complain OF having a
poor memory, and yet that faculty can
De developed as easily as can the
biceps muscle. Nor is 1t necessary to
go to any professor of memory or to
master any elaborate system in order
to accomplish this result. One does
not have to go to a gymnasium to
strengthen the arm or back. Chopping
wood or rowing boat will do It,
Similarly, memory may be cultivated

suits.

SMALLEST OF ALL REPUBLICS.
Located on Island Few Miles South
of Sardinia.

Of Sardinia.
Tavolara is said to be the smallest
republic in the world. 1t is situated
on the little island of the same name.
some seven or eight miles south Of
Sardinia Tavolara is about one mile
in diameter and inhabited at present
by ffty-fve people-men, women and
children. In 1886 Kari Albert, then
King of Sardinia, bestowed the su-
premacy over this little Isle upon the
Bartoleoni family, and for fortyslx
years king Paul l. reigned in peace
in his domain. He died on May so,
1882, and shortly before his demise
called all his faithful subjects to his
bedside and declared It to be his
earnest wish that none of his relatives
should succeed him as head of the
government in the island, and that he
considered 1t for the best that the
good people of Tavolara should gov.
ern themselves. After this last wish
no candidate for the vacant throne
could be found among the family OF
the deceased, who were used to con.
slider their Kings" wish law, and the
little island remained ungoverned for
four years. At last, in 1886, the little
island was declared republic. The
constitution gives the elective fran.
chise to both men and women. A

Rabbi Hirsch Of Portland. Ore
In his address upon THE Edu.
cational Problem" at the Nation.
al Woman Suffrage Convention
recently held in that city ex.
pressed himself strongly In favor
of women hayinga votein all pub.
lie affairs. He said in part;-
1T is a strange anomly in
American public life that we
have given our schools so largely
into the hands of women. They
are expected to teach the chll.
dren history and patriotism, yet
are not considered competent TO
vote. While even in Russia or
China a woman can be Empress,
and for 40 years a woman on the
throne of England showed what
a Christian woman could do in
that exalted station, yet here in
America a woman cannot even
be a constable.
We must have women in the
schools. and we must have all
the children in the school. Those
of us who are not wholly lost to
honesty admit that the way men
have conducted public affairs
needs improvement. Professor
Hunsterberg admits that we need
a leisure class, and the only one
in America is the women. Look
at what they have done in reforms
and IN securing improved legis,
lation in many lines. II Is they
who propose laws and pass them
and yet we say they are not ca.
pable to vote. We must have the
term people" recast In the pub,
lie mind so as to include women,
Il appeal for women in the
schools. The woman, because
she is a woman, is less easily cor.
rupted than the man who has for
gotten that he had n mother, II
we must disfranchise somebody
il had better be most Of the men
rather than the women.
Every right Rnas with a duty.
Women pay taxes and do ppblit
service, and hold mp before us
the standard of righteousness
and they ought to have a vote.

all of the gas which might create dis
turbance in the little stomach has evapo-
rated, the starch granues have ripened

best condition to be digested and abb

Just a little lime water in the milk
will often aid in establishing good teeth,
and where the little princess's first teeth
have not been especially good, either as
to color, shape or arrangement, the mat
ter can readily be corrected by careful
attention, first to the cleanliness of the
mouth and teeth, and next by diet.
Upon the care of the first teeth will
depend the quality and the beauty of the
second or permanent set. Only too
often do even the wisest of mothers
imagine that the first teeth do not re-
auire dentists care, arguing that as they
are but temporary it were money thrown
away to see to their filling and the like.
If the first set be in any way Irregular
or faulty the defect must be corrected
Immediately, for "as the twig is bent. so
is the tree Inclined" and as the first
J teeth are faulty or perfect so will the
teeth that the little beauty carry with
her through lie be affected.
The habit of letting the baby suck its
thumb or its fist is a fruitful source of
Irregularities of the gums and teeth. 1t
is bad enough when only the thumb is
constantly sucked; but when the whole
of the little fist is thrust into the tiny
mouth the gums are drawn out of shape
and the teeth grow outward in a aim
fully projecting fashion.
The use of those so-called pacifiers,
too, is another source of dental troubles,
and this scribe would joyfully see their
manufacture and sale prohibited by act
of Legislature. They are seldom OF
never properly eleansed, the rubber OF
which they are made is porous and abb
serbs all sorts of germs and bacteria,
aud their use is almost invariably at

digestive and intestinal troubles.

kept their teeth in good and healthy pres
ervaton to a ripe old age.
Inheritance, of course, may do much
either for or against a sound set of
teeth; but educati will do a great deal
more. Even a poor Inheritance in the
matter of teeth may be so improved upon
that the tendency to early decay need
not run beyond a single generation.
The old saying that to make a gentle
man you have 10 begin with his grand
fathers, nine generations back. might
just as well be applied TO the attain
ment OF perfect teeth.
The old Southern mammes were wise
in their day and generation; and they
brought up their young charges to take
, most particular care of the teeth and
lips and breath.
The day that dear little Miladi arrives
in this best of all possible worlds, is none
too soon to begin with the care of her
mouth. If the mouth, the oral cavity
as the doctors and dentists seem to pre-
fer to call it,, be not kept absolutely
sweet and clean the chances for good
teeth are spoiled long before they begin
10 appear.
The little rosebud OF a mouth must be
swabbed out several times daily with a
soft rag squeezed out in boiled water
in which half a teaspoonful of boriC
acid has been dissolved. Just as soon as
dentition begins, each little tooth mus
be carefully cleansed after each feeding
The soreness and tenderness of the gums
can readily be relieved by gentle rub

first been taken to see that the finger
is "surglcally clean;" that is. that sons

this practice.

The mouth being the gateway to the
entire system, as n prominent physician
puts it, the matter OF absolute eleahli-
ness here cannot be made too important.
Teach the small child this, and her
health will be established according.
Little disorders of the stomach have a
marked effect upon the teeth. Sour
stomach will soon give rise to tartar on
the teeth; and this is best removed in the
early stages by a dentifrice of powdered
pumice stone. This can readily be oh
tanned of any druggist; but wise pre-
caution is to run it through fine boltinS
cloth-or even a fine soft cheesecloth
will do-so that all gritty matter is re-
moved. The teeth must be thoroughly
brushed with this, and care must be
taken to remove every particle of the
pumice stone, since 1t is especially de-
structive to the enamel. The mouth
must be well rnsed and plenty of soft
bread. corn pone or cake eaten after
ward. so that there is not trace of the
ldentifrice remaining. If the tartar has
been permitted to grow, then it will need
the skill of good dentist to remove 1t
without injuring the teeth
In spite of all that is said against it,
|
hest dentifrice. No need to use ii oftener
than two or at the most three times a
week, and be careful to remove every
trace of it after using. If there is the
slightest break or irregularity in the
enamel of the tooth, the charcoal will
surely fine lodgment there, and dis
colored spot will result; but il soft bread
be ehewed, each tiny particle will surely
be removed. Charcoal has the property,
too, of opposinb putrefaction and de-
stroying vices of the gums.
An old-fashloned remedy for soft gums
and for loosening teeth is one that can
be readily made at home. 1t consists
of one ounce Of ooarsey powdered Peru
Wan bark stepped in half a pint of
brandy for a fortnight. A tablespoonful

to a wineglassful OF water used to rinse

dition of the teeth aud gums.
