WellinEt0n's Integrity,

The great Duke of Wellington was
noted for his rigid integrity. Here is
an instance which occurred in refer
ence to his large estate. Some farm adj
joining his lands was for sale. and his
agent negotiated for him for the pur-
chase Having concluded the business.
he went to the duke and told him he
had made capital bargain. What do
you mean" asked the duke. "Why,
your grace, l have got the farm for so
much, and | know it to be worth at
least SO much more" Are you quite
cure of that?" quite sure, your grace
for have carefully surveyed it,"
"Very well, then, pay the gentleman
from me the balance between what you
nave already given and the real value
of the estate. "-Argonaut

old, a carpenter employed on the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad,
committed suicide at his home,
at Rock Hall, near Washington
Junction, Monday night last, the

mum. Barrett took eight ounces
of laudanum in several doses, and
died after physician endeavored
for some time to counterfeit the

The cause of the mans act is

four children, among them a
daughter. Recently this daughter
married in Washington, and since
the wedding Barrett has been

The RomnnsU scs Holly.

1t should prove o. m.-4case interes,
TO students of history that the earl,
Romans had festival at about Iii,
time of our Christmas and that thu
festooned their houses with holly Ii
honor of the god Saturn. This was
called the Saturnalia, and the charac-
ter of the celebration may be judged
from the fact that the name is still
the synonym for carousal and immor-
atty. At this time the Romans sent
their friends sprigs of holly, thus in
dicating their good wishes for pros
perity and long life. 1t is related that
the early Christians also decked their
homes with holly at this season for
the purpose Of escaping persecution.

THE JAW AND THE TEETH.
What May Happen If We Continue
Usfuu Soft Eonda

What May Happen If We Continue
Using Soft Foods.
The teeth are really appendages of
the skin, and not of the skeleton, as
people generally believe The jaw is
formed in accordance with the neces-
sity for providing a hold for the teeth
that is, If there We're no teeth to come,
the jaw would grow differently. and
would not have it's present shape. The
jaw is not an Independent part, as 1t
would like to be; it has to form itself
to accommodate tenants with which,
strictly speaking, it has no ties of kin
dred.
The use Of soft foods decreases the
size of the teeth, and they will ulti-
mately disappear, unless we make
more use of them.
AS there does not seem to be any
likelihood of a change in our habits,
we must expect to lose them in course
Of time. Then the jaw will assume
probably another shape. Further, the
gums might disappear, for there can
be no use for them after the disappear
ance Of the teeth.
The loss Of the teeth makes the lips
fall in, and brings US near to the Punch
form Of face! We find it impossible to
pronounce sounds, such as t, d, sh, CHI.
The change of face, so to say, will GER
tainly lead to a modification Of the
tongue, and this In turn to the inability
to pronounce other sounds.

GoDFREY's rANkARD.
A Seventeenth Century Relic Of ths
Plague In London.

A Seventeenth Century Relic OF the
Plague In London.
A curious historical relic of London.
is the large tankard of solid silver pre-
scented by Charles II. to Sir Edmund
Berry Godfrey for his valuable services
during the plague and the fire Of Lon
don, for which he received the honor of
knighthood in 1866. The tankard.
which is of plain silver, has a hinged
" and weighs nearly thirty-six
ounces. Its front is engraved with the
royal arms and the crest of the recipi-
ent, together with Inscriptions in Latin
and engravings Of scenes connected
with the fire, which are still in excel
lent preservation The engraving Of
the pesthouse men carrying corpses to
the dismal plague pit and that of the
crowded blocks of houses surmounted
by flames are very quaint and curious.
Sir Edmund, who was born in 1921 at
Sellinge, in Kent, was a timber mer-
chant, possessing wharfs at Dowgate
city andfat Charing Cross. He prosper
ed, became justice Of the peace for
Westminster and member of parlia-
ment for Winchilsea. In history, as no
reader of Macaulay and Green will
need to be told, his name is most IA
nous in connection with his mysterious
murder, which was popularity attribut-
ed to the zeal with which he had devot-
ed himself to unraveling the alleged
popish plot. His body was found in a
ditch nea Primrose hill, face down
ward and penetrated by his own sword,
under circumstances which precluded
the idea of suicide or robbery.
The excitement caused by this still
mysterious event is indicated by the
fact that when the funeral procession
left the city, with great pomp and
pageant, for the burial ground Of st.
Martin's-in-the Fields, it was preceded
by 70 clergy and followed by upward
OF 1000 persons of distinction.

Atomic Dyspepsia.

The ultimate cause Of atomic dys-
pepsia Is constitutional depression. 1t
may be due to overwork, and especial
ly to prolonged worry. Sometimes the
dyspepsia is the first manifestation Of
tubercular poisoning. Again, there
seems to be an inherent failure of the
digestive organs. Once established,
dyspepsia is, In turn, the cause Of loss
of strength, Of mental inertia and Wis
ceral weakness. Some degree Of sim
pie anaemia is almost inevitable. The
exciting cause may be an illness Of any
kind, the excessive use of tea, coffee
or other beverages, the lack of proper
food, some error in habits of eating.
Often it Is not d~iscoverable.
