THE JAW AND THE TEETH.
What May Happen If We Continue
Using Soft Foods.

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 q hold for the teeth
that is, if there were no teeth to come,
the jaw would grow differently, and
would not have its present shape. The
jaw is not an Independent part, as it
would like to be; it has to form itself
to accommodate tenants with which,
strictly speaking, it has no ties of kim
drcd.
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, oh.
The change Of face, so to say, will GER
tatnly lead to q modification of the
tongue, and this in turn to the inability
to pronounce other sounds.

sOlatOry.

A correspondent of an English paper
tells how some one visited q wild beast
bearing unmistakable signs of having
had a glass too much. A tiger scratch
ed the back of the hand with which the
man grasped a bar of the cage. The
laceration was severe, and the pain
was great. The sufferer danced about
and tWirled his shillalah, crying: LET
him out! Let him out till have me
will nv him. A companion tried to
sootke the irate dancer, with this neat
impromptu: Never mind, Pat Sure,
he only wanted to scrape acquaintance
wild ye."

Titles In Germany.

The question of title is one Of the
most delicate in Germany. a fact Of
which the stranger is constantly re-
minded in intercourse with the people,
particularly with the women. Frau
Professor. Frau Director, Frau Doctor.
are most particular about their hus-
bands titles being attached to their
own names, but when it comes to mill
tsry circles it is different, and both
men and women protest vigorously
against this sharing Of titles. Lieuten-
ant Won 3. objects to having his wife
addressed as Frau Lieutenant, which
title belongs as well to the wife of
Lieutenant Schmidt or Half Of a less
aristocratic regiment.

Gardening in America has reached
what one might call the awkward
age" Neither q man nor a country
goes a-gardening in early youth. Men
come to build stately sooner than to
garden finely" as Bacon once said. and
as every garden writing body has re-
peated until Sir Francis in Elysium
must regret he ever made the remark,
which none the less is true. Gardening
is essentially a middle aged enjoyment.
and America being, as nations go, still
young, her garden craft has the faults
Of youth. 1t has its incongruities. in
harmonies, and it often mistakes size
and expenditure for excellence.-Cen-

Maund md Maunder.

Neither maund, basket, nor maun-
der, to whine or grumble, is obsolete.
Both are still in common use in South
Motifs and Leicestershire, at any rate.
The former is used only, however. Of
a particular kind of basket, used for
carrying butter TO market. The basket
is nearly square in shape and has two
lids opening from the middle part.
where the handle is,. and it Is called
the "butter mawn" (maund). Maunder
is usually heard in such sentences as
"What are you Numbering att" A
Northumbrian will say, Hes a maun-
dering old fool" when the man of
whom he is speaking strings words to-
gether in senseless sort Of way some
what akin to maudling.-London Notes
and Queries.

The ultimate cause of atomic dys-
pepsia is constitutional depression. 1t
may be due to overwork, and especial
~ 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 1t is not discoverable.

GODFREY'S TANKARD.
4 seventeenth Century Relic of the
Plague In London.

.
Plague In London.
A curious historical relic of London
Is the large tankafd 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 1865. The tankard.
which is of plain silver. has hinged
cover 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

the pesthouse men carrying corpses to
the disma! 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
Seilinge, in Kent, was timber mer-
chant, possessing wharfs at Dowgate
city and at Charing Cross. He prosper

Westminster and member of parlia-

need to be told, his name is most ia

murder, which was popularity attribut-
ed to the zeal with which he had devot-
ed himself to unraveling the alleged
popish plot. Ills body was found in q
ditch near 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.
Martins -in-the-Felds 1t was preceded
by 70 clergy and followed by upward
CT 1000 persons of distinction.

In the Same Boat.

The Duke of Leeds before succeed
ing to his title was active in politics.
Once when canvassing he came upon
an English shoemaker, whose vote he
solicited. Sorry" said the shoemak-
er, '5ut I'm not going to vote for any
bloomin' aristocrat. l can't afford IT..
I've got four children to bring up"
That's nothing" replied the duke,
I've got FIVE, and they are all girls"
The shoemaker came up and touched
him on the arm. "All right, old chap"
he said. you shall have my vote. 1t
seems to me we are both in the same
boat, and we'd better stick together

'The real simon pure is one of those
phrases which every one understands
and not one in a hundred could account
for. Simon Pure was a Pennsylvania
Quaker in Mrs. Centlivre's "A Bold
Stroke For Wife," produced at Drury
Lane theater, London, in February,
171S. One Colonel Feignwell passes
himself off as Simon and wins the heart
Of Bristol heiress, Miss Lovely, after
which the real Simon Pure turns up.

The Color of the Ermine.

1t is a popular idea that the ermine
sheds Its brown summer coat and that
on the approach of winter a covering
Of snowy white fur takes its place.
This was natural conclusion, as a
possibility of n change in the color Of
the fur had not occurred to scientists.
Experiments. however have been
made. and the brown coated ermine
has been placed in a very low tempera-
ture. Almost Immediately a change
was visible in the color of the fur, and
without shedding the creature became
snowy white.

and bladder are out of order.
What To Do.
There IS comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr.. Kilner's
Swamp Root, the great kidney remedy,
fulflls every wish in curing rheumatism,
pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passage.
1t corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne
cessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and
the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root
is soon realized. 1t stands the highest
for its wonderful cures of the most dis
tressing cases. If You need a medicine
you should have the best. Sold by drug
gists in ffty-cent and one-dollar sizes.

NEED WAITING STATION
.EARLHAM ACCOMMODATION
Visitors to Beautiful Cemetery De-
pIore the Lack of Suitable Facili-
Car Service.

The need for proper accommoda-
tions at Earlham cemetery for street
car patrons who visit the place has
been apparent for long time but
perhaps never was so forcibly demon
strated as yesterday when there were
hundreds of persons who made the
journey to the cemetery over the
street car line.
Though there is sufficient space be-
tween the tracks and the cemetery
property line to provide for a plat
form there is nothing Of the kind. 1t
is especially difficulty for women and
children to step from the car at this
point. There is a crying need, it is
asserted, for a street car station of
sufficient size at the Ea-lham gate.
There should be a platform for
convenience in getting off and on the
cars.
