 During his first year the amateur farmer discovered that all his little chickens, which were confined in coops were languishing at the point of death The novelist went over his Then litera. ture" to locate the cause of the trou. ble, but to no avail.
 Finally he called upon an old chap named Rawlins, to whom he put the question::
 What do you suppose is the matter with those chickens?"
 Well, I dunno" said Rawlins What do you feed 'em?"
 Feed themi" exclaimed the novelist. farmer. Why. don't feed them any. thingi"
 Then. how'd you spose they was a-goin' to live?'

Some idea of the general use Of false teeth may be gathered from the statement that 2O,OOO.OOO of them are exported from America to England every year. When we consider that probably not more than half. the in habitants of Great Britain indulge in the luxury of false teeth, no matter how many grinders they mayhavelost, these figures would seem to indicate that nearly everyone in England suf- fers from defective or missing teeth. As far as observation goes, the United States is no better off than England in this respect.

Passing of the Hostess.

The decay of the fine art of enter taining is much bemoaned by a Lon don paper. Once no woman would think of entertaining at any place but Tn her own home. Now she goes to a restaurant to save the trouble in the home. Moreover, there was time when the hostess prided herself on her own conversational powers and upon her ability to draw out her guests, who were generally chosen with regard to some ability in this di. rection. Now nobody talks, but some body sings or plays and the concert or rhetorical entertainment has taken the place [. of brilliant conversation. =
