strong in most women, that they, too when in
charge of, or in company with children do not dream
of indulging in tobacco And in this way any latent
craving that may exist in the for the solace of
tobacco is killed, or, at any rate, denied anything
like universal qualification amongst women.

Commissioner Dunmire return
ed from a meeting of the board in
Tyndall Wednesday. He says the
bill for the operation performed on
Henry Harms which he asked the
board to allow, was held up for fur
Their investigation. It is true the
bill, which amounts to $500 seems
quite large, and the board is to be
commended for s%crutinizing such
matters closely, but we believe that
in this case the appropriation is
justifiable, as the bill includes
cost of the operation, services of a
trained nurse and care in the hos
pital for eight weeks. The opera
ton was for both a fracture and a
displacement Of a spinal vertebrae,
which is considered a very difficult
operation, and one that the ordin-
airy surgeon will not attempt to per-
form. Mr.. Harms is a sober, in
dustrious citizen, depending on his
daily labor for the support OF his
family, and has no means sof his
own to meet the expense.
While out driving last Sunday
evening in company with a young

TOO MUCH PERFUME.

Most American women on return
ing from a residence in Paris are
amazed at the way in which New
York members of their sex use per-
fume. One woman who made a
lengthy sojourn in the French cap
ital and who stopped in New York
for a week or two ON her way home
declares that in stores Of the latter
city she was almost ''knocked down.
by the odors of rank perfumes. "It
is so different in France" she says.
81 don't believe a French woman
ever uses actual perfume. There is
always delicate odor about her of
the sachet powder she keeps laid
away in her chiffonier with her
lingerie, but never perfume. The

SUBSTITUTE FOR THE CLOCK
Burning Sticks" Made Use of by the
Ingenious Chinese.

The Chinese have several con-
triyanees for keeping the time of
day. The water clock has often, been
described, but the use of burning
sticks is less familiar. These are
described by Col. Bridges in his
book, Ground the World in Six
Months"
We bought a small bundle of time
sticks. The sticks, each Of which
is 80 inches long, are used, as their
name more or less implies, for the
purpose of measuring time. For
use by day some are especially made,
while others, for service by night,
are particularly constructed. Each
burns during a period of II hours.
OF these 'King Alfred's candles, !"
as some of our party termed them,
we bought two, and from a printed
circular, or advertisement, which
was at the same time handed to us
by the man who sold them, we
learned the following particulars:
The materials of which these
time-measuring sticks are made are
prepared according to the directions
Of the official or imperial astron-
omers or astrologers. TIE duration
Of each time stick is adjusted ac-
cording to the clepsydra, or water
clock, so that the time which it in
dicates when burning may be re-
garded as correct.
Time sticks which are manufac-
tured to mark the hours of the day
must be lighted at day dawn, when
the lines on the palm Of the hand
are just visible, while those which
are constructed to mark the hours
ef the night nnst he LIGHTED at
dusk, when the lines on the palm
of the hand are not discernible.
Each stick, when burning, must be
placed in perpendicular position.
1t is also necessary that it should
be placed in a room free from cur
rents Of air-Youth's Companion.

Comfort is a relative term. In a

lightful which would hardly be
thought so at home. When, the day
after the battle of Gaines Mill,
John, a negro servant, came in for
supplies, says Mrs. Pryor, in her

after his masters well-being.

TOOTHBRUSH AS A FAD
Was Considered an Article Of Luxury
in Early Days.

Colonial diaries and letters make
it plain that our unfortunate an
cestors suffered much from jumping
toothaches, swelled faces and the
early loss by forcible extraction OF
teeth which at later period might
have been saved to render their own
ers many years of further service,
says the Youths Companion. NO
wonder, since the care Of the teeth
was little understood, and that lit
tie often but negligently practiced.
Toothpicks were known; the
toothbrush was not, although rough
substitutes were employed, made of
fattened sticks, split and pounded
at one end to a stiff, fibrous fringe.
1oothbrushes, when first introduced,
were regarded as by no means i'm
portant accessories to the toilet, but
rather as minor luxuries, and suit
able for women only.
The dairy Of a London merchant
trading to the colonies has this en-
try: Bought a toothbrush for my
wife, which, used together with
salte water, very strong, and a
wasshe Of herbs, she is told will
keep her Teethe from falling out or

they are not without impressions oi

his tragic career with Shakespeare.

The Independent.
We hear much of the reduction in
the death rate Of large cities in recent
years, but very little about improve
ment of the health Of small towns.
1t is well known that the infectious
diseases slay many less victims in
city life than they did twenty-five
years ago. and the reason for it is
not far to seek. Cities established
departments of health, gave to them
ample powers, and then insisted on
their being effective if their appropri-
ations were to be continued. The
consequence has been that not only
has much suffering been spared, but
thousands-uay, even hundreds of
thousands of people are now alive
who, in the words Of one prominent
sanitarian have no business being
alive-they would have been dead Il
the death rate that prevailed twenty
years ago still obtained. Had they
died their death would have been con
sidered as from the hand of God We
know that their living is the result Of
taking Of soms very simple measures
for the prevention of disease.
