The Toothbrush.

Dentistry condemns the continued
use Of one toothbrush as all wrong.
The impossibility Of cleansing so as
to keep it free from microbes should
insure the buying of toothbrushes by
the quantity and the discarding of
each brush long before 1t has served
what once would have been considered
its term Of usefulness. Soft brushes
should be chosen, which Is possible
when they are only expected to have a
short term Of use. Warm water al
ways should be chosen for cleansing
the teeth, and when smoking is In
dulged in good antiseptic dentifrice
which agrees with the mouth after
some experimenting should be used

1t was in 1917, when the Free Soil
state convention was held at Herki-
mer. There was a great gathering of
Free Soil Democrats and abolitionists.
In the ballroom of the hotel-it was
called a tavern in those days-before
the opening of the convention were
gathered the leaders, who were con-
structing the new party platform, slat-
ing the officers and committees and
doing other preliminary work. In
chair tilted against the wall was
Prince John Van Buren, running over
the manuscript of the great speech he
was to deliver. Occasionally he arrest
ed the work Of his associates with an
invitation to listen to a paragraph
which he considered especially good.
His readings each time produced laugh
ter and applause. Finally he read a
passage which excited shouts of laugh
ter and applause. When this had died
away somebody said, John, you ought
to have that part printed in italics"
Prince John affected surprise at the
suggestion. Gentlemen" he said, 81

Many OF our people think of China
as land Of ignorant coolies who are
so inferior to ourselves rs to rise
scarcely to the plane Of human beings.
The fact is that China contains great.
er number of educated and cultivated
people than any other country in the
world. Their culture is not like ours,
but it is based upon long study of lit
erature, ethics and philosophy, and it
has been transmitted through many
generations The Chinese have not
well learned how to act together 9th

Antiouitv Of Chairs.

Chairs were in use in Egypt SO long
ago as 1899 B. G. The Chinese en-
ployed them from about 1900 B. c. In
India they were used and are men
toned as dating from 100 B. G.
House chairs with backs were in use
in India A. D. 300. They are known to
have been employed in Rome so early
as A. D. 70, being mentioned by Pliny
at that date. Chairs with foot rests
were used in Rome A. d. $50.

BODY FOUND.
flOater Picked Up at HOquiam. Prob.
ably Nate of NewburQ.

Tuesday morning dead body was
found floating in the waters of the har-
Dor, near the dock of the Grays IIarbor
Lumber Co., Hoquam, and was taken
to the undertaking parlors OF the Nc
Taggart company. The body bad been
in the water for so long a time that theie e
was little lett for purposes OF identitica-
ton. However, there was found upon
the body suit OF gray clothes and
striped shirt, the dress betokening a
sailor and possibly mate or second
mate. In the pockets was found an
American Waltham gold watch and q
chain and a small locket. The case mum.
Der OF the watch was l,467 800, and OF
the works, S,S63, ,425. On one side of the
locket we're the initials "L. j: c." and
on the other a small diamond.
The body has the appearance OF hav-
ing been in the water for at least six
months, and this leads one to think that
it is probably the body OF the mate OF
the steamer Newburg, who was lost
therefrom between Hoquiam and Aber.
deem about six months ago.

pany some two years ago constructed a
framework of mill of large dimensions.
but on account OF the depression in the
lumber business which followed, work
was not continued. In December. 1905.
however. machinery was ordered and
work commenced on installing mode
plant. 1t is expected that this will be
completed February, 1906, and that the
mill will commence work with a capacity
OF 200 900 feet. The mill will be equip.
ped for coastwise and foreign shipme nts
more particularly; but gradually planers,
dry kilns and sheds will be added, en-.
ablng the company to enter the eastern
market. The shingle mill of this COM
paly, which is one Of the largest, if not
the largest, in the state. cutting an aver
age OF 100000 shingles per day, has been
in almost continuous operation through.
out the year, with the exception of the
authorized "shut down" OF the sh;ngle
association.
At Aberdeen, A. J. West, after sever.
ing his connection with the West & Slale
Lumber Company, secured site be.
tween Aberdeen and Cosmop lis on the
north side of the river and has COM
menced the building of modern saw
mill plant. This will have capacity of
about 100000 feet per day, and will be
equipped particularly for coastwise and
foreign shipments. Some OF the auxiliary
buildings are already up and the founda.
ton and site is being prepared for the
balance of the plant. No doubt 1906
will witness the completion OF this plant,
with its added capacity to the lumber
cut of the harbor. So far as appears at
present, this forms the record OF the i'm
provements and new plants installed for
1905, and as yet no new schemes have
been advanced for 1906.
