Harvard now has Dental School.
The science of dentistry is fast
taking its place with that of medi-
cine as a preventive measure. Tooth
extracting is not now the first,
but the last resourse of the dentist.
Filling still holds its place, but
modern dentists are working hard
to educate the public that much can
be done to prevent the decay of
teeth by proper oversight and care.
Oral surgery is receiving the atten-
ton it deserves, so that within a
decade, dentists, who are studying
the latter, say it will be practised
by all recent graduates as much as
is the filling of today. The care of
the mouth and teeth is as impor-
tant to the health Of the individual
as is the care of the rest of the body,
which is usually left with the NJ. D.
And in both branches of the healing,
art, prevention rather than cure,
is the slogan.

LIGHTWEIGHT AND WELL.

DIR. f. 7. Smith quietly celebrated
his eighty-eighth birthday, Sunday,
by receiving calls, letters and cards
of congratulations. The Doctor
has snow white hair, but otherwise
he looks ten years younger than his
years. He gets out every day, even
the icy sidewalks having no terrors
for him. His parents both died of
consumption, but he credits his es-
cape to the fact that he rode over
the hills and valleys for forty years,
in fair weather and foul, in his work
as a country doctor.

Another and larger granite shed
is now assured for Barton, thanks
to the efforts of the Barton Granite
Promoting Co., and the excellent
showing of Barton stone. Ground
for this shed is now being broken
and the shed will be Ierected imme-
diately. This shed will be 30x100
feet and will accommodate 80 or
40 men, which number the concern
expects to work next summer, and
as soon as the shed is completed
will start with Is or 20 men. The
parties behind this concern are men
of experience and financial ability.
7. F. Roy, Of st. Johnsbury, who
has owned and operated success
fully a shed employing about 25
men, will be the actual manager
while the Asselin Bros, also of
st. Johnsbury, are financially inter
ested.
The work of the public service
commission in Newport recently
consisted of a continuance of the
hearing for additional train SER
vice between Newport and Lyndon
vile.
The hearing set for the New Eng
land and Passumpsic Telephone
companies was continued until Jan
uary Is to allow District Attorney
Alexander Dunnett, who has court
cases in Caledonia county court, to
complete his business there. The
States attorney of Orleans county
asked the commission to order the
telephone companies to produce all
books and papers relating to the
raise in rates and also all correspond
ence as to the formation of the
Passumpsic Telephone Co. by the
New England company. This re-
quest was granted and an order will !
be issued to that effect. This case
will probably attract a large amount |
of attention as it is the first case of
this nature to come before the com
for a hearing.

Feb. IA to 10. The winter courses
are business and not academic
courses, hence no standard of en-
trance requirements is insisted upon,
save that each student shall possess
a good common school education.
The registration in the course Of
home economies, which will naturally
appeal to women only, is necessarily
limited to twelve. The winter
courses are an evolution from the
dairy school, the first session of
which was held in 1891. Less stress
will be laid than hitherto upon
work and more stress upon
'arm dairy work and upon general
agricultural instruction. The eX-
Dense of attendance is small outside
Of the necessary cost of board and
odging. The entire cost of a four
weeks session need not exceed
thirty dollars.

We need quite few young and
middle-aged men for >under secre-
taries at our legations that they
may be in training to become our
ministers and ambassadors. The
able secretary of state realizes that
we must have young blood in the
diplomatic service, if we be prepared
for the future. A special board has
been appointed to pass upon the
fitness of applicants and these
same applicants have to pass oral
and written examinations on peril
nent subjects, but it is understood
that neither social nor political
influence will stand in the way of
appointment to the service. 1t

men had been working to within
fifteen minutes of the time when
the flames were seen bursting from
the roof. The cause of the fire is
unknown. About two thirds of the
factory was destroyed although
much machinery was saved. The
loss will not exceed $40, 900, al
though first estimates placed it as
high as $4,000 1t is we'll covered
by insurance. The E. L. Chandler
Co. is owned by the Parker& Young
Co. of Lisbon and all the orders
will be taken care of at that plant
until the factory is rebuilt. Work
will soon be begin on the new build
ing, which will give employment to
most of the men thrown out of work
by the fire.

Testimony at the inquest on the
Cherry Mine horror brings out the
fact that an inexperienced boy was
the instrument in the hand of Fate
which caused the fire in that ill
fated mine. He testified that he
pushed the car of hay over to the
third vein and left it standing near
a flaming torch. The Inspector
did not know that open torches
were being used in the mine. The
didn't know it was loaded" excuse
outlasts time and eternity with its
innumerable disasters.

If titles come high, the same may
be said of rich wives. Prince
Miguel, who married Miss Anita
Stewart recently, has not fulfilled
his part of the bargain with his
creditors, who agreed to hang off
awhile to see if he could not contract
a marriage with an heiress. 1t will
take about a million to settle up,
and it may take a law suit to bring
about a final settlement. The
Princes brother is also being tided
over in the hope that he will make
out as well as Miguel. 1t takes a
good imagination to gild over such
alliances with even a thin coat of
romance.
