AS spring approaches and the
snow begins to disappear it be-
comes evident that a lot of work
will have to be done about the
city this summer in the way of
building new sidewalks to re-
place the old plank walks. Many
of the sidewalks in the city are
in very poor condition and
some are even unsafe for travel.
A large number of the bushes
men and property owners are
willing to put in cement walks
as soon as the city furnishes the
grade. and according to the
members of the common council
this will be done as rapidly as
possible after the frost leaves
tie ground and work can be
commenced. The putting in of
these walks, while quite expen-
sive at the time, increases the
value of the property in the city
and gives it prosperous appear.
ance. we hope to see lot of
work done along this line this
summer.

Alcohol In Cold weather.

A scientist thus explains why it is SO
dangerous to use alcohol in the polar
regions: A moderate use of alcohol
causes a deposit Of fat Alcohol is not
turned into fuel in the muscle and
nerve cells, but serves as a pure fuel
in the organism and replaces the COM
bustion of fat Alcohol is therefore
dangerous in the extreme cold because
it assists the throwing off of heat in a
great degree. The effect is as if a
stove in room should be heated red
hot and then all the doors and windows
thrown open. Heat produced by mus
cular work in the body is best obtained
from carbohydrates in the food; but,
besides this, the Indispensable produce
ton of heat is best obtained by fats
This explains the instructive choice of
the food of men, In the tropics they
eat little fat and much fruit, while the
polar dweller requires immense quaint
ties of fat to keep up the bodily com
bustion.

THE JAW AND THE TEETH.
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 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
dred
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 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 facet We find it impossible tC
| pronounce sounds, such as t, d, sh, CHI
The change of face, so to say, will GER
| tainly lead to a modification Of the
| tongue, and this in turn to the inability
to pronounce other sounds.

Atomic DysDeDsia.

The ultimate cause of atomic dys-
pepsia is constitutional depression. It
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 it is not discoyerable.

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

a curious historical relic of London
is the large tankard 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
Ton, for which he received the honor of
knighthood in 1866. The tankard.
which is of plain silver, has a 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
with the fire, which are still in excel
lent preservation. The engraving of
the pesthouse men carrying corpses to
the dismal 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
Sellinge, in Kent, was a timber mer-
chant, possessing wharfs at Dowgate
city and at Charing Cross. He prosper
ed, became justice of the peace for
Westminster and member of parlia-
| ment for Winchilsea. In history, as no
| reader Of MacaUlay and Green will
need to be told. his name is most IA
nous in connection with his mysterious
murder, which was popularity attribut-
| ed to the zeal with which lie had devot-
ed himself to unraveliIg the alleged
popish plot. His body was found in a
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.
Martin Fields, it was preceded
by 20 clergy and followed by upward
Cf 1000 persons of distinction.
