Oyama loves peace. and no man in the

many other eminent Japanese, he is
said to be somewhat disgruntled over
the terms. but, unlike Field Marshal
Yamagata, he has always been docile
and tractable in governmental mat
tiers, and he will doubtless accept the
situation with good nature. The field
marshal is very amiable old gentle
man, generous and liberal, fond of
animals and intensely interested in
the welfare of his soldiers. During the
Chinese war he not only captured Port

yet he was not a quack. That name
might be applied to Il duck, but not to
a turtle As a dentist he was perhaps
a little slow, but he did his work well.
AL least he could pull tooth out.
whether he could put one in or not is
another matter
The little boy who owned this turtle
is named Philip. That means lover of
horses" A turtle is not a horse and
cannot travel nearly as fast, but he had
some attraction for Philip, and l think
that that boy might be called a lover
OF turtles, for he now has four of them.
One day Philip found that one Of his
teeth was getting loose. He had up to
that time had but one set. and a second
crop of teeth was beginning to push
the first crop out. Philips mother was
away. He could not wait for her to
come back. He thought it was impor-
tant that this loose tooth should come
out at once. So he went to the seam
stress and asked to have a thread tied
around his loose tooth. She did not
wish to do it at first, but at last con-
sented. Then Philip fastened the other
end of the thread to a hole in the shell
of one of his turtles. The turtle walked
Oil into the grass. Philip braced him
self and stood stock still. In a minute
the queer little dentist had pulled the
tooth out.
l am sorry to say that this dentist
turtle has since died, leaving family
of four. He was buried under the
grapevine with fitting epitaph.
On one occasion this turtle went out
for a little visit in a neighbours yard.
The servant had placed upon her back
stoop dish of doughnut fat to cool.
The dentist, left to himself. calmly
walked into it, narrowly escaping an
untimely death. He was rescued, and
after deal Of bathing and wiping was
restored to his former self.
The death OF the dentist turtle set
his master to thinking. The turtle
was silent before his death and has
been silent ever since. l suspect that
Philips tongue is not often so silent
as that of the turtle. 1t may have
been this fact. or it may be. his mother
thinks, that he heard the text about
silence in heaven for half an hour.
which prompted him to ask the ques-
ton, mamma, if should die talking,
