ton and D,teneration of the Teeth"
remarked that while the bones of man
and animals had decayed greatly dur.
ing the last 5000 or 1000 years. the
teeth had been preserved in much
better condition.
Teeth were not part of bones. but
part of the skin-they were, in fact,
dermal appendages. Old people were
surprised to find that when the teeth
of the lower jaw departed there was
very little of the jaw left. This pro-
duced what was called the nut-cracker
physiognomy. Referring TO the fact
that the crocodile had an animate ID
toothpick in the form bird. which
removed foreign matter, the lecturer
enforced the lesson OF the necessity
OF attending carefully to the cleansing
of the teeth and recommended atten.
tion to them at night as being more
;nportant than in the morning.

SPECIAL MEETING or ALDER-
 MEN.

Called for Monday Night to Consider
 New Plan for Collection of Garbage.
 Mayor John P. Studley has called a special meeting of the board of alder men for next MGnday night to act on plan which has been suggested for doing away with the present method of letter the contract for the collection of the city garbage. In their request for action on the new play the board of health stated that under the method now in vogue the contract Is not let to the lowest bidder which is usually so low as not to permit of thorough work on the part of the contractors. Their plan for which they are to ask the approval of the aldermen is to contract with some responsible party at a fair price and in such a way that they can insist on the work being done in a complete and sanitary way.
 This meeting will make it impossible for the committee on railroads and bridges to hold, as originally planned, its meeting for hearing on the pro- posed identification of the old Shore Line railroad tracks from James to Ferry streets and the building of a bridge over Grand avenue
 Considerable public interest has been shown in the first named proposition, and it is understood that strong eff fort will be made to prevent the plan of the railroad.
