in South Paris Monday evening, Jan. IA,
after an illness of several months with q

He learned the trade Of machinist with
the Portland Company In Portland, and
later worked at the trade In several

chine shop for general machine work
and iobbing. Some years later, ~ the
demand for modern plumbing increased
he added plumbing to his machine work.
In his work he has employed one or two
men all the time. He was . careful
workman, who fully understood all
branches of his business, and all bis
work was thoroughly done and reliable
Personally Mr.. Jones had the high re.
gard of all who knew him. He devoted
himself quite closely to his business, and
was rather quiet in his tastes, com
panionable man, but giving little time to
social matters.
Mr.. Jones leaves . widow. They have

Some time since the Democrat asked
what 1t IL which tears tho hornets nests
to pieces. One of our correspondents
suggested that 1t was the work OF blue
jays. Now, although not in direct
answer to the Democrats query, another
paper lays It to the woodpeckers. Ac-
c0rding to this authority, at the approach
OF cold weather the hornets promptly
end their mortal existence, and disre-
garding the time-honored injunction to
the rats, not to die In tho house, they
tuck themselves comfortably away In the
galleries and passages Of their nests to
breath their last. The woodpeckers, to
secure . juicy morsel, tear away the bot
tom Of the nests and dig out tho once
hot but now cold animals. Blue jays or
woodpeckers, the destruction of the
nests is evidently the work Of creatures
with wings.

How long to wait for
Artificial Teeth.

1t is better to insert artificial teeth
as soon as possible after natural ones
have been extracted.
BY waiting until the gums are
fully healed the facial expression is
lost and it is seldom that it can be
fully restored /; therefore it is better
not to wait longer than three or four
weeks at the most, except in rare
cases.
Our artificial dentures are natural
and perfect reproductions ofthe teeth
that nature gives.
