Of Perfect
Teeth in Wilmington
Leaders of Social and Business
Circles Following New Fad.

Hundreds of residents of Wilmington and
vicinity including many leaders of social,
business and professional circles, have been
taking quick advantage of the offer of the
NEW METHOD" dental parlOrs, 61013
Market street. to keep their teeth in perfect
condition for year for one dollar.
The new proposition was offered to the
public a few weeks ago, ard since then the
NEW METHOD" parlOrs have been
crowded by eager clients of all classes. On
several days the number of visitors from
the surrounding country was so great that
the spacious offices were unable to contain
them, with the result that good many per-
sons were forced to wait their turn before
being admitted. Possibly this was due to
the fact that this is the first time this one
dollar yearly contract proposition has been
made in this country.
Despite the startling nature of the NEW
| METHOD" offer it has born the careful
scrutiny of serious investigation. The pro-
prietors of the NEW METHOD" dental
parlOrs are thoroughly responsible gentle
men with high ratings in all of the best
financial agencies and publications.
For one dollar they contract to clean, fill
and, if necessary, extract the teeth of a
client for one year. The dentists in charge
of the parlors are men of long experience III
! their professions The theory under which
I
are properly taken care of at the time the
first imperfections appear they will give
comparatively no trouble thereafter, pro
vided they are examined and treated at no
| too infrequent intervals All the work don,
in the NEW METHOD" parlors is guaran
teed to be painless.
So far as is known every patient of th'
| NEW METHOD" parlors has beer
thoroughly satisfied with the work don,
there number of unsolicited testimonia
letters has been sent to the manager, DIR. G
H. Frasier.
Mr. Daniel Humphries, manager of tn
Lyceum Theatre, which is Wilmington
leading family playhouse, writes as follow
to DIR. Frasier:
Dear Doctor:-W When saw your advertise
ment in one of our papers, / was sceptical
but as my teeth needed attention, decide
TO call on you. By paying one dollar an
receiving a card which entitled me to on
years work | became your patient for ths
length of time, and on that day receive
many times the value Of my expenditure
That was several weeks ago, and the filling
which you then put in have given me ever
comfort and satisfaction.
1t gives me pleasure to recommend yot
one dollar year plan and your parlors I
everyone interested.
Very sincerely yours,
DANIEL HUMPHRIEs.

Dying OF Famine

is, in its torments, like dying of con-
sumption. The progress of consump-

different medicines and good doctor,

Colophon was a city of ancient Ionla,
nine miles north of Ephesus, and near
the sea. 1t was said to be the birth
place of Homer, and near 1t was a IA
nous oracle of Apollo. The Greek prov
erb, 'eTo put a colophon to it," mean
ing to end an affair handsomely, is ex-
planned by Strabo as arising from a
belief that the cavalry of Colophon was
so excellent in quality that their charge
was always decisive in a battle. Hence
arose the custom of calling any device
or monogram or printers name or sign
or date of printing in old printed books
a colophon in the sense of definite,
satisfactory end.

An English nInntrnn.

A mantrap has been found in Afford,
Lincolnshire, England, which shows the
barbarity of a century or SO ago. 1t
is probably the largest mantrap in ex
istence. 1t is seventy-six inches in
length, and its jaws, with teeth pro
truding two inches, will open fully two
feet two inches by eighteen inches.
Old time landlords who chose to insist
upon their rights in their entirety, as
they often did, were at liberty to plant
these barbarOus engines about in the
underground Of their inclosed land for
the benefit of any trespasser or possible
poacher who might chance to set foot
near them. Their use V abolished by
law iu 1897.

THE SOMALI.

They Are HabituaIly Idle and Always
Merry-Their Peculiar Headdress.
BY nature SOmali are alternately
dOcile and savage. nearly always mer-
~ and habitually idle. Even in busy
Alden they work as little as possible
and then do no manual work, for their
inherent pride forbids that Cab driv-
ing. boat manning and grooming are
the general crafts of the Alden Somali.
In the interior of his own country his
Principal occupations are plundering
and cattle lifting, at which latter pur-
suit he is said to be unparalleled in
skill. In religion they are all Moham-
Inedans.
The great popularity of the SOmali
is, however, his hair, for, contrary to
the custom of most races processing
Islam, he does not shave his head, but
