HUGLESS DANCING.
Chicago School Fad Like kissing Man
Without Mustache, Says Girl.

1luSIache. says
"Hugless" dancing and "waterless"
swimming were recently added to the
curriculum of the Chicago public
schools, says a special dispatch to the
New York World No youthful arm
was allowed to belt the girlish waist
and they didn't even know that they
were dancing, because in the curricu-
ium the hugless dancing is catalogued
rs fancy steps.
Instead of hanging their clothes on
hickory limb the children hang them
selves from flying hickory rings and
go through the motion of swimming In
midair. Instructions for performing
the two stunts" are contained in a
new prospectus Of the course of study
in physical culture prepared by Henry
Suder, physical director of the public
schools.
"Oh, yes, l suppose it is dancing"
said Professor Suder, but we call it
fancy steps. 1t Is intended to develop
grace of motion and feXibility Of body,
and at the same time 1t is an exceed
ingly important physical exercise"
ut Is like kissing man without a
mustache," says one of the girls.
In regard to the wetless swimming
Professor Suder had this to say, THE
teaching of swimming in the schools
was suggested following the wreck Of
the steamer General Slocum."
The swimming exercises, according
to the prospectus. are to be taught in
two ways. The children first are to be
put through the various strokes while
In slanting position. Later they are
to be hung from flying rings. and with
wide leather belt around their waists
to support them they will enjoy all the
sensations Of swimming without fear
Of cramps.

WWORLD'S RECORD
Old Horse, w. B. Gates, Has Won
One Hundred and Two Races.
SIRED BY SUBURBAN WINNER.

Tweive-y year-old Turf Warrior Can
Show Equine Youngsters the Way
to the Wre-Captured Twenty four
Events In One Year.
W. B. Gates. the horse that came
home recently at Oakland, Cal. at the
juicy odds of 80 to 1. has established
a decidedly unique record for races
won that is hard to equal.
Gates made it 102 winning races
when he beat Clandestine by a head.
1t Is claimed for other horses that
they have made an even century mark
in the way of earning brackets, but
Gates has a clear record-clear except
for one thing, that some of his races
were won on outlaw tracks, and the
results are not recognized in the turf
reports
He Is about twelve years old now
and can race in any kind of going
and with any sort of odds tackled up
against his name. Each time he races
it looks as If it would be the last time,
but w. B. keeps coming and ever and
again will be ahead when the judges
take the final peep.
His sire Is Prince Royal, who won.
a Suburban handicap, and his dam
Penelope. He was foaled at the Kings
ton stud and was sold by Garnet C.
Bennett Of Memphis for $1,000.
Ferguson named the colt after q,
wealthy Memphis business man, and
during the time that he raced under
the Bennett colors W. B. Gates won
more than forty races. R. R. Rice, Jr..
son Of Captain Rice of Arkansas,
bought Gates when the horse was
about five years old for $500. 1t was
a good buy. The first year that Rice
raced Gates he won twenty-four races,
and the next year at Union park, the
st. Louis outlaw track. W. B. Gates
won twelve handicaps. At Delmar
park, in St. Louis, Gates won three

Among the most noticeable whims
Of fashion this year has been the en-

A good point to remember in connec-

the placing of the fiat edge of lace

Though dentistry became a science under the hand of Professor Richard Owen as late as 1889, there are evil dences that il was practiced in a crude way by the aucients. HerodOtus refers to treatment of the teeth by the Egyp- tians, and evidences of attempts to supply artificial teeth have been dis covered in ancient skulls and num- mics. Gulcn was the first physician tO speak of treatment of troublesome teeth. and Amhroise Pare, in his work on surgery in I55O makes mention of the preservation or the teeth It is only since the middle of the last cen tury. however. that dentistry has be- come a branch of surgical science. Be fore that time bad teeth were extract ed. and mere tooth drawing constitut- ed dentistry early in the nineteenth century. The first dental school in the United States was erected at Balti- more in 1889. In lS4J Cincinnati boast cd of a similar institution, and in 1856 a dental school was erected at Phila- delphja.

A Gentleman of the Old school.

But he swOre, after the manner of the age. He was travelling at night on the continent alone in a post chaise when the Postboy while passing through d forest began to drive like a man anything but certain of his way. My fathers wrath soon rose, and the explosion of strong Ian guage which issued from the carriage so alarmed the driver that, murmuring, 'Je ne veuX pas conduire le diable' q will not drive the deviD, he pulled up and. having eZpeditiously unfastened the traces. made off with his horses at a gallop. My father I believe, passed the whole night alone in the woods"

Rinqinq Hogs.

Now is the time for the farmer to
ring his hogs, unless he has them in a
field which he wants rooted up, says
the Kansas City Star. Even then it
Is a wise plan to put rings in their
noses, for they are apt to break into
meadows and pastures and in two or
three hours destroy more grass than
they are worth. "Oh," you say, Il
would ring my hogs. but it seems SO
cruel, and they don't do well after
wardp'
Remember the pain is only for an in
slant. Then, it is better for the hog to
suffer a little than for your pocket
book to suffer a great deal. In regard
to a hog not doing well after he has a
ring in his nose. you are a little mis-
taken. He doesn't do well before it is
put there ga roofing hog never fat
tens is an old adage, but nevertheless
true. At least. this is my experience.
1t may be possible. that the fattening
hogs will not take on fat so fast just
after they are rined but the gain
afterward will more than make up for
the loss.
