OLD TIM e DENTISTRY.
Queer Instruments In Harvard Den.
tai Schools COllecfi0n

9ueer Instruments In Harvard Den.
tai Schools Collection.
Like many other Of the new pro-
fessions, dentistry is very old one.
It is known that 400 years before the
beginning of the Christian era Egyp-
tian dentists filled teeth with gold, but
no trace OF their methods of doing their
work has ever been found. Aescula-
Plus, the patron Of physicians, was the
first famous dentist in Roman history,
and the old Romans used a toothpick
very much like the little wooden one
that is made today. The Arabians
ages ago produced dentifrice, but it
soon seemed to be very generally used.
The story Of dentistry is told in the
Instruments it has employed. AS they
are known today they had their be-
ginning in the sixteenth century, but
their evolution has been slow. In the
Harvard Dental school in Boston there
is collection Of instruments used by
dentists in the first half of the last cen
tury. One Of the formidable tools it
includes is what was called a kew.
doubtless from it's peculiar shape,
which was used for extracting teeth,
the process being to slowly and pain
fully twist and pry the offending molar
out Of it's place In order that no mis-
take should be made the dentist began
operations by hammering and prod
ding one tooth after another with
sort of bludgeon until he had satisfied
himself-not to mention the tortured
patient-that he had found the most
sensitive one and therefore the most
likely candidate for extraction.
The grandfathers of the delicate steel
tools that lie in rows on the modern
dentists table were small in number,
but large in awfulness. There are in
the Harvard collection chisels and NAL
let's, rude forceps for removing the
teeth, miniature crowbars used to re-
pair cavities for filing, files for sharp
ening the cutting and grinding sur
faces of teeth and one particularly
horrid instrument, known as the pei
lean, with which teeth We're ''lifted."
How rapidly and recently dentistry
has become one Of the important
sC1euceS appears III the IacC lnat IN
the middle Of the last century black
smiths We're doing their best-or worst
Ito relieve the victims of the tooth
ache, while today institutions like the
Harvard Dental school attract stu
dents from all over. the world Be-
sides, while it was sure torture to go
to the. dentist in the so called "good
old days." such visit now is COM
paratively comfortable, so far has the
profession gone in the direction Of per-
forming it's operations without caus-
ing pain.

An Interesting ExDeriment.

A vessel containing a certain white
powder is placed upon the table, when
the operator advances, waving his
wand and uttering some magic words
coined by himself, when, 10, of sud-
den the room is lighted up with bril-
liant light, SO effulgent that it dims the
eyes Of the spectators. The secret is
this: The powder is composed of equal
weights Of loaf sugar and chlorate Of
potash, separately reduced to fine pow
der and then well mixed together. This
is placed in a cup, and when the pow
der is touched with the least drop Of
sulphuric acid it will instantly burst
into fame. The end Of the glass rod

The Latest in Atrships.

The Pathfinder says, "a noteworthy
voyage in the air was made by the
Lebaudy airship a few days ago. The
vessel was steered from Nantes to
Meaux, some sixty miles, against the
wind, and later fifteen miles farther
dead against strong head wind.
Santos-Dumont, great rival au-
thority on airships, says this is the
greatest achievement toward proving
the practicability of aerial navigation
yet reached. The Lebaudy craft is
built on the same principle as Santos.
Dumont's: that is, it consists of an
elongated steerable balloon propelled
by a gasoline motor.''

SUBSCRIPTION SIS PER YEAR

Box Car Merchants.
The steps that have been taken
by the state dairy and food com
mission to make itimpossible for
the box car merchant to enjoy
privelig,s that are not enjoyed
by the legitimate merchant in the
line Of 6isposing of goods that
are not up to the standard are
certainly com mendable and the
cooperation asked for by the de-.
partment should be most
cheerfully given by the general
public. AS a rule the bulk of
the goods that are sold by the
box car merchant are of an infer.
ior quality and large portion of
the truck sold in that manner is
prohibited by the Minnesota
pure food law. The pure food
commission, however, can not
wage a successful war against
the illegal traffic of the itinerant
merchant without the assistance
Of the public, as the goods are
disposed Of quietly. The sales
man hops about from one section
of the state to another in order
that his presence may not be-
come noticeable.
The retail merchants through
out the state, as well as all pri.
vate citizens should make it a
point to notify the mission OF
the presence of the box car mer
chant in any community, the
commission will watch the
goods shipped, seize and examine
them and if any of them are in
violation of the state pure food
laws they will be returned. So
large percentage of the goods
handled by that class Of peddlers
are illegal, that if this plan wer.
followed out closely the itinerant
merchant would soon be driven
out Of the state completely and
the business all handled by the
legitimate dealer, who pays taxes
and is benefit to the community
in which he resides.

Taft on the Jury.

SECRETARY TAFT, besides be
ing a soldier and a stateman, is
something Of a student of politi
cal economy, and his investiga
tons have led him to believe that
the jury system which prevails
in this country in criminal cases
is vitality defective. He declares
that the enormous increase Of
lynchings is directly traceable to
our defective jury system.
During the past ten or fifteen
years the jury as applied to civil
cases has come in for a good deal
Of thoughtful criticism and many
students Of the law and of politi
cal science have advocated the
abolition Of the system. So far
as regards criminal cases, how
ever, Secretary Taft does not de.
sire the abolition of the system.
which in this country is designed
togive every man accused of crime
every possible means Of demon
strating his innocence, but he re.
commends radical changes, as
follows:
First, either the abolition of
the right of criminal appeal or
making reversals possible only
when a consideration Of the en-
tire evidence would lead the
higher court to believe that there.
should have been a different yer-
y ! = ~ X i
dict. Such a change says the
secretary would cut out 50 out
Of every 100 reyersals in Grim
inal trials.
Second, the restoration of the
right Of the court to comment to
the jury upon all of the facts in
every criminal case, and the
abolition of the right Of pre- EN-
tory challenges. This would in.
the secretary s opinion secure
conviction Of the guilty defend

Have Kidney Trouble
and Do Not Know IL.
unvu rn FINN n.,-
HOW TO FIND OUT.

It is the function of the kidneys to filter
and purify the blood which is constantly
passing through them.
When the kidneys are out of order the
other organs are affected Immediately
and you may have symptoms of heart
trouble, stomach and liver trouble, and
other ailments, which are all owing to the
kidneys being weak and out of order.
If you are sick FOley's Kidney
Cure will strengthen and build up the
worn out tissues of the kidneys so they
will act properly and the symptoms of
weakness, heart, stomach and liver
trouble will disappear and you will be
restored to perfect health.
How TO Tell II You Have Kidney Trouble.
You can easily determine if your kid
neys are out of order by setting aside for
"a hours a bottle of the urine passed
upon arising. If upon examinationit is
cloudy or milky or has brick-dust sed-
ime Mt or small particles float about in it,
your kidneys are diseased and FoIey's
Kidney Cure should be taken at once.
F0ley's Kidney Cure is pleasant to
take and acts directly upon the parts
affected and you begin to feel better
at once.
It corrects slight disorders in few
days and It has cured many obstinate
cases after other treatment had failed.
Doctors Said He Would Not Live.

: After doctoring for two years with the
best physicians in Waynesburg, and still
getting worse, the doctors advised me if
! had any business to attend to had bet
ter attend to it at once, as could not
possibly live another month, as there was
no cure for me. Foley's Kidney Cure
was recommended to me by a friend, and
/ Immediately sent my son to the store
for it and after taking three bottles be-
gan to get better and continued to inn
prove until was entirely well. =
