When They Cut Their Beards.

In France Henry ". was the last
monarch who wore a beard, and he
had fine one. He was succeeded by
beardless minor, in compliment to
whom the courtiers shaved all their
boards except the mustaches. The sue
ceSSiOn of another minor confirmed the
custom, and ultimately the mustaches
also disappeared. The Spaniards, mora
tardily influenced by French example
kept their boards until the French and
English were beginning to relinquisl
even mustaches. Perhaps they would
have kept the cherished appendage, but
French prince, Philip ", succeeded
to the Spanish throne with a shaved
chin. The courtiers with heavy hearts
initiated the prince, and the people
with still heavier hearts initiated the
courtiers. The popular feeling on the
subject, however, remains recorded in
the proverb. "Since we have lost our
boards we have lost our souls''

In its many turnings the road had
left the river out Of sight; here it had

Laura saw the glistening ice of the

from falling into the river that the

and there was not the slightest barrier
between it and the edge of the descent

bad enough, but to come down that icy
track with heavily laden sled seemed
impossible.
Hold on hard, now, and in two min

when the terrors of the situation had
been sufficiently enjoyed.
The passage was made in safety,

grievous disappointment.

BABY'S TEETH.
Importance of Proper Care of First
Ones,

Importance of Proper Care of First
Ones.
Upon the care of the first teeth, de
clares the Washington Times, depends
the beauty and stability of the perman-
ent set.
Keeping the teeth clean is not the
only requirement. Proper diet means a
good deal.
Sugar and candies should be avoid
ed, not because their immediate con-
tact with the teeth is injurious, but
because they frequently produce an
acidity Of the stomach which greatly
affects the teeth.
II child is i'll during teething time,
it's system often lacks the necessary
amount of bone-making elements; and
in such cases little limewater in the
milk is most beneficial. When it be-
gins to take something besides milk,
plenty Of cereals that are rich in bone
making elements should be given.
Just as early as possible start train
ing the child in the care of its own
teeth. Select a tiny toothbrush, soft
and plant; use every inducement-
even bribery is permissible in this case
to obtain its regular use. Keep this
up until it has become a well-estab-
lished habit.
At the first sign Of decay consult
dentist. To lose the first teeth prema-
turely is pity, as it affects the dura-
bility Of the second ones.
When the second teeth commence to
appear, dentist should examine them
at least once year. Care must be
taken that they are not crowded or
allowed to come in unevenly. In this
way much pain and even later disfig-
urement may be avoided.
Teeth have often became blackened
and disfgured beyond redemption by
strong medicines given in childhood.
This seems like criminal carelessness
on the part Of the parents; of course,
it is only thoughtlessness; but the
results are just as cruel and far-reach-
ing as though a real injury had been
intended.
Medicine that may blacken the teeth
or injure the enamel should always be
given through a glass tube.

"I can!'' Laura declared with en-.
thusiasm. 1--WE must do as Trusty did,
go by the river. We have our skates,
and the wind has kept the ice clear of
the snow. Hurrah, Well have some
skating after all. Joe."
That might do if we were down
| there, but how are we to get down
The snow is as deep on the slope as
! anywhere else, and even without the
snow we couldn't do it; the bank is
too Steep"
DO as Trusty did, slide down. He
made track on purpose for us all the
way. What's the use of q bob-sled if
we can't slide down hill on it? Pitch
that wood off into the snow, get the
| sled over here, ride comfortably down
the hill, put ON our skates and go
| home"
Joe looked at her in speechless ad-
miration for an instant, and then with
out a word he began to work furiously
| at the load of wood. In five minutes
the sled was empty, the sound par. IN
| coupled from the broken half, and ev.
| erything ready for the adventurous ride
that Laura had suggested. 1t was a
swift and breathless flight that they
took down that long, steep hill.
But they did not exult for long. The
river had its perils as well as the road.
AS the skaters swept round q sharp
bend they were confronted by an enor-
nous drift, which the driving wind
had piled on the ice against the OBJ
structing hillside. The drift was far
too deep and wide for them to make
their way through it and too soft and
yielding for them to climb over It; and
it appeared to stretch the entire width
Of the stream.
Joe and Laura struck across toward
the opposite bank, hoping to round the
end of the obstacle there, but they were
met by a still more discouraging OBJ
struction. The river just here was mar
row and swift, so swift that no ice
had formed on the side they had come
to. The snow-drift ended abruptly at
the edge Of deep, fast-flowing and very
cold water.
Take off your skates, Laura" said
Joe in despair. 1--WE may just as well
lie down comfortably in the snow and
freeze right here Trusty must have
got through somehow, 1 suppose. but
the track he made has drifted full al
ready. Hello! What's that? Hey,
there! Help. Help! Help"
Men were on the other side Of the
drift. Their voices as they shouted
to each other could be heard above the
shrieking Of the wind. They shouted
still more loudly now in answer to Joe's
calls.
THAT you, Joe? Are you both all
right?" That was Mr.. Maitland's voice.
Keep steady for a few minutes and
We'll get at you. We are more than
half through the drift now"
They dug fast and presently rescuers
and rescued were face to face.
"Joe, you rascal! Why didn't you
come home when it began to SNOW, as
| told you to. l was sure we'd find you
with broken bones on the ice ct the
foot Of Danger Bend, when Trusty got
home by the river with his harness in
strings! What do you mean, sir?'
Mr.. Maitland tried 10 speak feru-
ciously, but his attempt was a failure,
for all of them could see the tears Of
JOY running down his face.
Now, don't try to scold." Laura
cried, hugging him rapturously. You
