jested him about his strict views Of
the Sabbath keeping. and his rigid
adherence to those duties which

Miss Johnston has allowed her sense

OF great refinement Of thought and
speech. OF unusual gentleness Of

little brother and I counted him a
boon companion and claimed his at

threshold. Could a man known and

these suddenly be metamorphosed

Miss Johnson paints?
Eccentric Is a word which may
unfairly be applied to General Jack

FREE CARE Of TEETH
FOR POOR CHILDREN
Dental Association Members
Vote to Contribute Services
Gratis in Deserving Cases.

Deserving poor children are to have
their teeth mended and cared for free
of charge.
This Is the humane purpose of the Ma
tional Capital Dental Association. Every
member of the organization is to con-
tribute two hours work each month, to
the sratuitous treatment of poor chill
drens teeth.
This was decided upon yesterday at
a meeting of the organization. Details
are not yet worked out. The method of
procedure is still problem.
That dental chairs and equipments be
established In several hospitals near the
heart of the city is the suggestion most
likely to be adopted. Each dentist, when
his turn comes around to give his time
to the poor. it is proposed, will handle. at
the hospital rather than at his office
cases assigned to him
This is a field of benevolence in which
Boston is the pioneer city Dentists are
of the opinion that there is little prospect
of loss of fees III the plan, as they have
all been doing much work for which
they are not paid.
