TALK NO. 496 EYES AND TEETH


 EYES AND TEETH The eyes and teeth usually give out sooner than any other part of our bodies-they are very much alike in this respect. Some children have to go to the dentist at an early age. Some children have to wear glasses. In the majority of cases the older a person grows the more troublesome the teeth becomes It is just the same with the eyes. There is a vast difference, however, in the attention that is given them. At the very first indication of a decayed tooth it |. receives professional treatment. People want to preserve their teeth as long as possible. They do not lose a moment, but have them filled the moment the cav-1 ity is discovered. If the eyes show signs of giving out they should receive attention just as promptly. 1t is ten times as frn- portant to preserve the eyes as to preserve the teeth Putting off the matter as long as you can has the same effect as al- lowing the cavity in the tooth to grow larger-after a while 1t will be too late.

 LAST FEW MONTHS
Fire Boys Handicapped, but Do Good Work After Ar

One house was completely destroyed and two others were badly damaged in North Globe shortly after midnight this morning by fire of unknown ori' gin and of a decidedly suspicious na- ture.
 The fire apparently started in two story frame house situated near the west city limits, just north of Blake street. The flames communicated tc two adjoining houses, one a two-story frame structure owned by J. N. Por ter and another a brick house, the own CT of which could not be learned thi! morning.
 As the fire had secured considerable headway before the fire departmen could reach the scene of the blaze, lit tie could be learned regarding the ori gin of the fire. That the same house il which the fire started was partially de stroyed in an unexplained blaze sev eral months ago has aroused suspicion Il the minds of the fire department, how ever, and a further investigation vii probably be made.
 The houses were almost inaccessibl to the fire apartment and it was wit considerable difficulty that two line of hose were strung to the scene o the fire. Even under this handicap however, the fire boys were able to pre

 LATEST BILL Comedy Drama Well Pre- sented at Martin Theater
 Last Evening

"David Garrick," classical comedy drama, was presented at the Martin theater last night by the Quinn Stock company, and while not lengthy piece, it proved to be one of the most enter taining productions to be given at the Martin for several weeks.
 The piece has to do with the daughter of wealthy Englishman, who falls in love with David Garrick, an actor. The father summons the actor to his home and endeavors to have him leave the stage. He declines, but agrees to aid the father in turning his daughters af- factions away from him.
 He learns that the Englishman 's daughter is young woman with whom he was secretly in love, but he keeps his promise, and by feigning drunken ness, shatters the young woman s love The daughter learns ofsthe deception and to escape marriage with man whom she does not love, leaves hei home. She goes to Garrick's rooms where she is found by her father. The father is so impressed with the conduct of Garrick, however, that he not only sanctions their marriage, but asks Gar rick to pay him the honor of becoming his son-inlaw.

BIRMINGHAM'S POPULATION

From the Union Springs Herald.
From the advance reports 1t seems
that many cities will have to be salts
fed with a much smaller population than
they have been claiming. If present in
dications mean anything Birmingham is
the exception to this rule.
The Magic City has been claiming
only about $4,000 but the recent school
census would point to a population some
what in excess of that figure. The school
census shows that there are within the
limits of the city 39,54S children within
the school ages. Most cities estimate
the total population by multiplying the
school children by four, but 1t is safer
to multiply by three and one half. If
we multiply by the former number we
have 1876. If by the latter, 1877, 421.
In either case the population of the city
as thus indicated would be considered
over that claimed.
ut is an interesting fact" says the
Birmingham Age-Herald, "that the num-
Der of children of school age is 1884 in
excess of Birmingham's population in
1900. Very few cities will show anything
like the percentage of increase that Bir-
mingham will show, no matter what the
official figures may be.

FALL OF MRuBE. MADnELL

From the ST. Louis Times
The announcement that "Rube" Wad-
dell has been sold into a minor league
means more than the mere retrosression
of favorite exponent of the national
game
Mr.. Waddell was a great pitcher; he
possessed the elusive gift of making
people laugh-and now he has gone to
Newark.
1t would be unreasonable to imply that
Newark is the jumping off place, despite
the fact that the great pitcher we have
named has long shown a tendency to seek
an easy jumping off place, when the
water wagon rumbled over powders, or
may be viewed, In this connection, as
merely a symbolic city, it may be said
that every man who has the gift of in
spring laughter is sooner or later in
danger of being Newarkized.
How well do we all remember how.
when ''Rube' made his appearance on
the mound, a great shout of merrment
and JOY went up from grand stand TO
bleachers. There is no telling why
When Mr.. Powell took similar position
for instance people merely gave attentive
heed to the game. and hoped that slants
and surprises might be abundant But
for Waddell there was always laughter
What, we would like to know, would a
judge be able to accomplish If, upon his
appearance on the bench, a round of
hilarious applause were to so up? What
would a policeman do if bystanders all
united in a great gufraw when he tried
to arrest his man? What would the gro
Gerry man accomplish If the people wait
ing to be served began to shout with joy
when he undertook to measure seventeen
and a half pounds of sugar?
"Rube' Waddell has simply been
laughed from ST. Louis to Newark, and
now he Is a minor Lacquer.
Nevertheless, down in its heart the
public will always have a soft place for
the man who can inspire laughter of the
good natured brand And what are pres
tige and dollars or any manner of pros
perfty compared with the power to evoke
happy merriment, even though it should
carry a man to Newark, and into the
shadowy limbo beyond?
