Things Hoped.

If had son who was determined to ''play the races" I should hope that he would lose his last nickel and have to walk home after his first attend ance.
 If I had daughter who played the piano in the sitting room while her old mother did the work in the kitchen I should hope that I might find an oa, shingle and be given the grace to use it.
 If ever I were to catch myself being as mean and small as some men I know-and may-I hope that should hope for the benefit of the world, that the angel Gabriel would toot his horn for me very soon.
 If ever knowingly vote for scoun- drel because he represents my party hope that I may have the privilege of going to a school where the elements of decency are taught.
 If my wife should prove to be irasc- ble at times-but I don't admit it-I should hope that would remember the sort of luck the poor girl played in when she married me.-San Francisco Call

The Tooth brush.

Dentistry condemns the continued use of one toothbrush as all wrong The impossibility of cleansing so as to keep it free from microbes should insure the buying of toothbrushes by the quantity and the discarding of each brush long before it has served what once would have been considered it's term of usefulness. Soft brushes should be chosen, which is possible when they are only expected to have a short term of use. Warm water al ways should be chosen for cleansing the teeth, and when smoking is in- iulged in good antiseptic dentifrice which agrees with the mouth after some experimenting should be used freely.

 Jefford loved Nellie sincerely. but he had avoided these tete-a-tetes with Bobby religiously Now he watched the rest of the summer party down the road and lifted his eyes just in time to behold Bobby falling into the tiny fountain en the lawn He had to form his small body into an almost complete circ'a to accomplish this result. bEt he was successful and q moment later was dragged forth. wet and waiting 10 be sent upstairs to lis nurse to be tried out.
