UGLY TEETH
 UNNECESSARY Red Flaring Rubber Gums Not Fit Substitute for
 Real Gums.
PORCELAIN CONTINUOUS
 GUM PLATES
Natural Looking and Acting Teeth-Expert Can Not Detect Them.

If every wearer of artificial teeth in this city knew how far ahead of the ordinary false teeth with rubber gums and plate Porcelain Continuous Gum
 Plates are there would not be any
 other worn in the city, The old style
 false teeth with hideous red rubber
 gums that so plainly bespeak the artd- ficial would be cast away and in their
 place with a naturalness that would defy detection at the hands of an ex-
 pert would repose the Porcelain P1afe.
 Red flaring rubber gums are not q fit
 substitute for the real gum. It is so absolutely unlike the natural that it
 requires but a word or smile from the wearer to have the most unobServant person detect its Ennaturalneas. Poc- celafn Continuous Gum Plates are the counterpart of nature and are an achievement in dentistry unlike all others. Being @ mineral they are. sam itary and durable and have a tendency to preserve the. most comfortable feel ing in the mouth as they fit faIltfess1y in their place and mucous membrane Of the mouth with which the plate comes in contact causing tendepness' and soreness that at times is almost, impossible to bear, especially when tha' teeth are being pressed against thesa' parts during the act of maStications5 This not alone provides perfect com fort for the wearer but assieks remark ably in a. perfect enunciation. Goodt clear speech is often impaired by an ii1S fitting plate. Not so with the Pocce~, lain Plate. On accounS of it's cont struction and material the plate is obliged to fit perfectly and will neTer alter in any manner no natter how much or how long it is in use. Ugly teeth are an unnecessary masfortane. Artificial teeth that look a3fificaa1 are equally bad. Only perfect Porcelain Teeth can give that firm soai6 heA1th- ful appearance that adds youth and makes them . pleasure to wear. The Porcelain Specialist of this city i& Dr. H. c.

Although a Stinging Blow to Medicine His Message Serves As Huge Relief
 To Sick.
A Work of Unusual Strength Pointing Way to Preser- vation and Regaining of Health, Strength and Hap piness.

Like the restoration of lost loved
 one to his people; like hearing to the deaf; and like sight to the blind does
 this great work of Dr. Louis Blumer, "The Revolution in Medical Practice, come to those persons who are bur dened with dread or disease itself.
 And not alone for the afflicted but for the we'll does this work which snlacks with common sense and 8 knowledge that every thinking indd- vidual should possess prove to be an emphatic boon. If Dr. Blumer has provided humanity with a Revolution in Medical Practice he has simultan- eously placed in its hands a "revela.- tion." He has landed a stingdng blow on the face of the medical profession that will not only cause consternation in this body but that will open the eyes of the people to it's drugging, pOis- onouS and even murderOus methods. This fearless author whose exnerience of Drugs in his earlier days proved to him it was simply guess work and not specific knowledge he then turned his attention to the studies of other methods of curing. In his book he has taken each of the curative meth OdS of the present day contrasting one with another eventually to bring with in the grasp of the reader a plan to regain and conserve health without the use of drugs or poisons, the hor- rible knife of the surgeon or the indul- gence in the many cults and isms of the supernatural savor. It is shown how everything earthly must ibe nat ural; if the body is in ill health it is an unnatural condition and poisoning oneself with drugs or kneeling in a prayer for relief will not right mat ters. In Revolution in Medical Prac- tice" Dr: Blumer has pointed the nat ural way to preserve and regain health. With all clearness he has indulged in the scaence of ''Naturopathy' a conn ttnation of all natural curative meth OdS and one that never fails and neither does it recognize incurable dis eases. It professes it to be the height of folly for an ill person to believe that his disease is incuraible-that this is as signing ones death warrant when the suggestion of regaining health will act precisely in the contrary. Where there is life there is hope and much of it, so if your doctor has given you but a month to live you are far from the grave.

 It was announced yesterday at the American league meeting in Chicago that Fred Parent. late of the New Ha- ven team. and with the champion Bos- ton American team in 1905 and '05, and last season with the Chicago American league team has signed White Sox'' contract for 1909.
 Up goes the stock of the Boston Nationals since the sale of "Cy" voung by their American brethren. Since the reported sale all Boston is up in arms and we'll they might for "Cy'' was their idol and could draw bigger crowd than the President of the United States. The fans of the Hub showed their appreciation last year of "Cy's' work when they rendered him monster benefit that netted thou sands for him. Since the sale the of- fees of President Taylor of the Ameri- cans have been deluged with kicks and appeals. while the newspapers have been advised by most of the fans not to stand for it. With Young out of the game with the Bostons. it marks the last of the team that won the American league championship for the season of 1904 and 1905 and the Worlds in 1905.

l hyenas. He looked older than when we last met him. and save for fringe i of white hair. which increased his mOnkish appearance, was quite bald | His face. too. was even thinner and more aged. and his grey eyes were more far-away than formerly: also he had grown a long white beard.
 Where did that buck come from?' he asked. looking at the dead creature. Rachel told him the story with the result that. as her mother had expect ed he was very indignant with her. It was most unkind, and indeed. un- Christian, he said. not to have asked this very courteous gentleman into the camp, as he would much have liked to converse with him. He had often re- proved her habit of judging by exter- nals. and in the veldt. lion and zebra skins furnished very suitable cover ing. She should remember that such were given to our first parents.
 "Oh! know. father" broke in Rachel. when the climate grew too cold for leaf petticoats and the rest Now. don't begin to scold me, because I must go to cook the dinner. I didn't like the look of the man. besides he rode off. Then it wasn't my business to ask him here. but mothers. who stood staring at him and never said a single word. If you want to see him so much, you can go to call upon him tomorrow. only don't take me. please. And now will you send Tom to skin the buck?"
 MT. Dove answered that Tom was busy with the fence, and, ceasing from argument which he felt to be useless with Rachel, suggested doubtfully that he had better be his own butcher.
 ssNo. mo-" she replied: "you know you hate that sort of thing. as I do. Let it be till the Kaffirs have time. We have the cold meat left for supper, and I will boil some mealies. Go and help with the fence. father, while l light the fire.''
 Usually Rachel was the best of sleep CTS So soon as she laid her head upon whatever happened to serve her for pillow, generally it was a saddle. her eyes shut to open no more till day. light came. On this night. however It was not so. She had her bed in little flap tent which hooked on to the side of the wagon that was occupied by her parents. Here she lay wide awake for a long while. listening to the Kaf- frs who. having partaken heartily Of the busk. were now making them selves drunk by smoking dakka. or Indian hemp. a habit of which MT. Dove had tried to vain to break them. At length the fire around which they sat near the thorn fence on the fur ther side of the wagon. grew low, and their incoherent talk ended in silence, punctuated by snores. Rachel began to doze, but was awakened by the laughing cries of hyenas quite close to her The brutes had scented the dead buck and were wandering around the fence in the hope of a midnight meal. Rachel rose, and taking the gun that law at her side. threw a cloak over her shoulders and left the tent.

Nashville.

Sharp, charged with the murder of ex-Senator Edward Car mack. to-day took advantage of the recess to develop some startling evil dence and secure new witnesses.
 Even as late as to-day and after the gruelling hours of Thursday the de- fense still maintained secrecy in re- gard to the names of their witnesses but 1t is known that the testimony for the defense will probably occupy a week. The defense will make public their story of the tragedy only when their three defendants take the stand.

trees prove a menace to the American
forests? Does it tend to denudation of

These are questions asked of tlte
United States forestry service by those

been sent out that there need be n

trees is done with discrimination.
In young pine forests. it is stated,
that thinning out process can DO no
harm. but where trees are slashed in
reckless manner the results are detri-
mental.
81 have thought a good deal about
the Christmas tree matter" said the
chief forester, "and have finally reach
ed this conclusion: Trees are for use.
There is no other use to which these
trees could be put which would con-
tribute so much to the happiness and
good of mankind as their use for the
children and family on Christmas day.
SO far as endangering the future life
of our forests is concerned the effect
is infinitesimal, compared with the
destruction caused by forest fires and
wasteful numbering"
It is estimated that four million of
Christmas trees are used annually. If
planted four feet apart these could be
grown upon 14O0 acres of land, a smal'
