CITY BRIEFS

Joseph Perry, colored has been ab- sent from the city since August 21 when he committed an assault upon Albert Dawson also colored. Satur- day night he returned and attempted to gain admittance to his former board ing house. 169 Housatonic avenue. A boarder notified Dawson and he in turn notified the police and Perry was ar rested. It is alleged that Perry at- tackled Dawson whom he discovered in Sam Chase's saloon drinking with a woman. Perry followed the couple outside where he whipped out a razor he had borrowed from Dawson pre- viously and cut Dawson in the neck.
 The Rosiano family has again at tracted the attention of the police by the presence of two of the boys aged 13 and respectively on the streets late at night. Last week another brother was sent to the reform school at Meriden to remain until he reach ed his majority. August and PasQutn- alo were picked up again after 10 o'clock, Saturday night by Patrolman Williams. They were taken to head quarters where Sergt Webb allowed them to go home after a lecture. The boys live with their parents at 115 Will lard street The father says he is un- able to control the boys and does not care if they are sent to the reform school. The boys gave evidence of neglect and say they are obliged to sell papers by their parents.

GIVE YOUR TEETH
 SOME EXERCISE
Don't Be Like Roman of Un- enlightened Age Who Bandaged Arms to Pre- serve Strength.
UNUSED MOLARS
 MEANS DENTAL
 BREAKDOWN
Favoring Teeth on One Side of Mouth Early Decay of Those on Other Side Not in Use.

TO preserve proper degree of health the teeth should be exercised 1 the same as the other organs of the body. We all know the story of the | Roman who after marvellous exhibi- | tions of weight lifting in which all
 rivals were defeated, finally met de- feat by an opponent. He was very 1 much angered and challenged the man who had defeated him to another contest at a stated future date. The
 defeated man then decided that for the weeks prior to the contest he would wrap up his arms in bandages ana not use them, thus preserving and
 saving, as he thought, a mighty force of strength. When the time of the contest was at hand he removed the
 bandages and in his attempt at weight lifting found his arms to possess no strength at all, he being as helpless as a. child. The experience of this
 Roman enlightened the people of his
 age and made clear to them that if
 bodily strength is to be gained, exer-
 else must be taken. 1t is the same
 with the teeth. If they are going to
 be healthy, if they are not going to decay they must be exercised, or used Is primarily that of masticatfon and
 like all other organs of the body they
 degenerate when not in active use.
 Thorough mastication not only strengthens the teeth, but prevents the
 deposition of tartar by the constant
 friction of the food upon the walls of the teeth. When using the teeth it is
 necessary that all of them be used
 Many people in masticating food favor one side of the mouth, possibly for no other reason than because some tooth on the other side Is in the beginning of a decayed condition and it is feared that further harm will come by it's use. The significance of having the imperfect tooth cared for by den-
 tist is very great because every day 1t is not being used the other teeth
 on it's side remain idle thus allowing tartar to collect and cause the early
 breakdown of the teeth of that side of the mouth, whichever it may be. If you have tooth in your mouth which for any reason, unsoundness or any, thing else, you are not using, you are doing damage to the entire condition of your mouth and you require the consultation of a capable dentist.
 r No matter what the condition of your mouth is, one decayed tooth or many, if you want dental work that is the most serviceable and absolutely non-detectable, which means it will be so natural that even experts will not detect that you have filings, crown or bridge work in your mouth, you should visit Dr. Weidlich, the famous Force lain Dentist, No. Citizens Building.

A Famous Story.

Every section has it's famous story. A famous story that is being retold in Oregon is about a very rich banker who got his start by doing work for the government. His bill was $5,OOO. and 1t had to be submitted to congress. Congress has a habit of cutting it's bills in two. To make allowance for this he jumped his bill to $10.0OO. He sent the bill to the governor for his approval. The governor, having also heard that congress generally appro- pr1ated only half as much as was ask ed, jumped it to $2O,OOO. The bill was then sent to one of the congressman. Being friendly to the contractor, he jumped it to $40,OOO and sent it to an other Oregon congressman for his ap- proval. The second congressman jump ed it to $S0.OOO Congress allowed the whole $s0,OOO, although the contractor was entitled to only $5,000. This is told as a fact in Oregon. The man who got the $8O,OOO got his start on it and is now a millionaire.-Atchison Globe.

Only the Truth.

A virtue carried to excess may be- come ridiculous. To such action one may well preach, Be temperate in all things" even in virtue. Amelia Opie, the English authoress, was not content with any half measures, as is shown in a letter from her quoted in Quaker Pictures" by Wilfred Whitten. Mrs. Opie's course of conduct is to be re- spected as proceeding from her con- scientious nature, but fiction readers may congratulate themselves that her opinions are not universal
 Before she became Quaker she wrote fiction. After her conversion she was asked to contribute a story to a magazine. Her answer to the editor ran as follows:
 ''Thou knowest or ought to know that since I became a Friend I am not free to what is called to make story. will write a fact for thy perusal or any little matter of history or truth or a poem If thou wishest, but I must not lie and say such and such thing took place when it did not. Dost thou un- derstand?'

Walk To Your Meals
 Like A Man
Eat What You Will And Learn to Enjoy Food
 And to Digest It.
HERE'S THE SECRET, FREE.

Make up your mind after reading this that you will let the next meal hold no terrors for, you.
 You can enjoy it. You can digest it. All that is needed is to give na- ture the juices she lacks, to give the stomach a chance to remove the ter rible irritating acids, alkalies and gases which turn food and nourish- ment into gas and decomposition.
 When a system is run down and depleted 1t needs building up. Ashes won't rekindle a fire and wrong diges- tive fluids will not take proper juices from food no matter how good the food is
 Is this common sense? Men spend years and even life experimenting on the human system, what it lacks in disease and what it needs in perfec- ton. This knowledge Is known to every physician or should be. Stuart Dyspepsia Tablets are compressed nat ural vegetable and fruit essences which when mixed with the saliva or the mouth go into the stomach capa- ble of digesting full meal and they digest it to the uttermost shred. Then such meal does a man good and II gIVeS to him the means to overcome stomach troubles. Forty thousand physicians use these tablets and charge you for writing a testimonial oA .iciT HerlC Wn1cn they Call d pre- scrlpt1on. Any druggist in America or Canada will sell you a box for soc. Ihlnk or It. Every druggist carries them. Here's common sense again. Don't this tell you there is merit?

SHRUBB SAYS
 SMOKE DID TT

There was a rumor last night that Al iShrubb had dropped dead in the street yesterday and the wires of the Empire Hotel, where Shrabb is staying fairly buzZed with anxious inquiries Last night Shrubb said:
 ''No, I'm not dead. I am far from it. In fact, barring bit of stiffness in my limbs am one of the liyeliest fellows in New York. You know a race like that in the Garden stiffens one up a bit. I wish to correct some of the statements in the newspaper saving that l came near dying after the race last Friday night. I was all in it is true. but not any more so than should be expected after a hard distance race. It was the smoke that killed me. That was terrible air for a man to breathe. I never will race in the Garden again unless smoking is prohibited
 3I have not made any future plans yet. It is possible that I will meet Longboat in a special fifteen mile race in Buffalo, near the end of the month. Sporting promoters there have made me good offer. also have been ask ed to meet Long boat in a fifteen-mile race in New York. I probably will contract tomorrow for one of the ra- ces''
 It is said that the Buffalo promoters have offered a $7,5oo purse, split $5,oOo

The Costly 6rIsr Pipe.

People don't unoerstand brier pipe making" said a dealer. 'Te they did they wouldn't consider a five or six dollar brier extravagant. Did you know, for instance, that brier pipe after its completion is put away to season for nine or ten years? French brler is the best material for these pipes. It isn't, though, brier, and 1t doesn't come from France. It comes from - etymologically speaking - the word 'bruyere,' which means 'furze.' French brier is really Italian furze root, a growth of the Tuscan Alps The plant is as carefully cultivated as tobacco itself. All the sprouts and leaves are kept well pruned; thus all the sap goes to the roots nourishment The root is cut when fully developed and boiled and dried before shipment Afterward the pipemaker hoils and dries 1t again. And when the pipe is finished he stores 1t away for further drying-a matter of eight years or SO. The best brier pipe is one cut cross wise of the grain, and the grain should be birdseye. Such a pipe lasts life time-can be handed down from father to son. Of course it's dear"

RElLLY'S BOND
 FIXED AT $l,5OO
Accused Ran Amuck in the a Water Street Lodging House and Gut up Charles Anderson.

The case of Michael Reilly, who ran amuck in Wells lodging house. 52O Water street, Saturday night, was con- tinued until the 18th by Judge Pullman in the city court this morning to await the result of the injuries he inflicted on Charles Anderson with a knife. Reilly applied at the lodging house for a bed Saturday night. but was refused on account of his well known turbul ent disposition. He came in again at 1 o'clock in the morning and was given a room rather than have fight with him. He had hardly reached his room when he attacked Charles Anderson, a regular boarder who occupied the room next to the one to which Reilly had been assigned. Reilly. made quick work of Anderson with his knife who fell to the floor seriously wounded. Reilly then turned his attention to William Coleman who had come to Anderson's assistance. Coleman es- caped a similar experience by using a mattress as shield against the in furiated man. The auto ambulance was out on another call and Anderson was brought to the emergency hospital in the patrol wagon. A stretchar was improvised from straw pallet and the wounded man was taken down the three flights of stairs with great diffl- culty. Anderson s wound is dangerous but not necessarily fatal. It consists of a deep cut in the neck made by Reilly's clasp knife. Reilly looks capable of a murderous assault with a knife. At St. Vincent's hospi al this afternoon it was said that Anderson was doing well and would probably recover.
 Reilly's bond was fixed at $1,500. an amount which he will not be able to produce.

A "L adv" Tn Pepys' Time.

There were worse terrors than the matinee hat for the man who sat be- hind lady in the seventeenth cen tury theater, as recalled by the Lon- don Chronicle. At least, we may sup pose so from MT. Pepys' experience on Jan. 2S, 1861, when he saw 'The Lost Lady" for the second time. Nine days earlier that play had not pleased him much, partly perhaps because he was troubled to be seen by four of our office clerks, which sat in the half crown box and in the Is. 6d." But on the second occasion the play did please me better than before, and here, I sitting behind in a dark place, a lady spit backward upon me by a mistake, not seeing me-" However, it was all right, for, "after seeing her to be very pretty lady, was not trou- bled at it at all.''

New F1esh-Colored Product That Heals and Hides Skin Imperfec-

New EIeSn-COlOred Product That
 Heals and Hides Skin Imperfec-
 tiOnS
 A peculiar feature of poslam, new skin discovery, is that it is naturally flesh-colored and contains no grease, so that when used on the face for the complexion, or for pimples, red noses, or any other inflamma tions, blemishes. or discolorations its presence cannot be detected. It can thus be applied In the daytime, the, natural color of the skin being immediately restored and the actual healing and curing pro- cess accomplished in 8 few days. If can be had of any pharmacist who sells pure drugs. Jennie Hamilton's Phar- macy makes a speciality of it. Fifty cents worth will answer either for the troubles mentioned or in curing ordin- ary cases of eczema Itching stops at once.
 The Emergency Laboratories, No. 32 West Twenty fifth street, New York are the sole dispensing agents for pos lam in the United States. and will send an experimental quantity free by mail in plain wrapper to all who write for it. This will show results after an overnight application.
