THE LIST OF HEROES.

The best thing about the Carnegie hero fund is the published list of gold& en deeds. We all know that this was a fairly good world, and that countless heroic deeds were done in it every passing day. That was always true since the world began, and always will be true. But it is exceedingly pleas ing to read how bravely kind many people in the next town, precise ly as they, are in our own town. And somehow, when you read the scanty little list that MT. Carnegie's commit tee manages to hear about nearly eV- cry one of the heroic deeds seems per fectly natural and just what was to be expected.
 That is, these exposures of self for the sake of others is human nature good human nature, to be sure, but really not strangely foreign to man as uaIl.-NeW York Mail

You Feel No Pain From Most Severe Denial Opera ratiOns
Yet You Are Wide Awake and in Full Possession
 of Your Faculties
That's What Analgesia In duced by Nitrous Oxid and Oxygen Has Done
 for Dentistry

A man of great wisdom once spoke pain from his operations and the pub- lie will descend on him in droves." This is very true because the fear of pain has caused people of all classes to idly permit their teeth to go to ruin with full knowledge of the fact that both their health and comeliness would likewise be affected.
 There was a time when such fear was well grounded but every year has witnessed some practical invention in the dental profession to lessen the pain which accompanies operations on the teeth. The crowning discovery of this kind and that which for the first time in history has really made a positively painless dentistry. is the stage of ANALGESIA induced in the patient by the administration of NITROUS OxID AND OXYGEN.
 This new method is not anesthesia and does not cause the patient to sleep nor OOeS TOD or a S1nSl0 faculty or lessen his power of under standing. He knows absolutely what is going on around him. he can talk, hear and makE use of every muscle of his body. THERE IS BUT ONE THING HE CANNOT Do-HE CAM NOT FELL PAIN.
 When in the stage of ANALGESIA, the patient acquires a restful mood. knows absolutely no pain and can undergo the most severe dental oper- pleasure. In fact ANALGEsIA IS A DELIGHTFUL STAGE pressing on the patient a happy, carefree mood to which there is no i'll effect during the condition or afterward.
 Where a patients physical condi- ton forbids the use of anesthetics the administration of NITROUS oxID AND OXYGEN to the extent of ANALGESIA is not only perfectly harmless but positively efficient. With people of neurasthenid tend encies, heart t-disease, kidney trouble or Bright's, where the administration of GAS, CHLOROFORM OR ETHER MIGHT RESULT MOST SERIOUSLY the state of ANALGESIA induced by NITROUS OxID AND OXYGEN IS ABSOLUTELY HARMLESS. In fact the oxygen utilized in connection with i the nitrous oxid is the greatest known restoration to weakened phy- sical condition and it's use has fre- quentlyy been the cause of prolonging 1 life for days in cases of mortal ill.,
 ness.
 In Keeping with the modern meth ods that have always been employed | by the Porcelain Dentists of this city, Dr. Weidlich, the proprietor has in troduced in connection with his up to-date dental offices, the use of NITROUS OxID AND OXYGEN

Gorgeous is the word which best describes the gown from which this sketch was made.
 First is a foundation of white char mouse, over which is a. softly puffed drapery of pale. cf1ampasne-co1ored chiffon and angel eleves of cream net. embroidered with fine gold thread. A gold and white brocade forms the overdress and the effect is as if the material were shaped to the wearer by pleats and sIashes, held by turn ed-back corners, faced with gold cloth and ornamented with fine rhinestone buttons.
 The gold embroidered neck frill is wired, and the red rose and girdle are of the most brilliant shades.

progressiveprinciples to a real
progressive audience. 1t was

Within two, minutes after the
rich melody of Bob Hodges
Scotch brogue floated out over
that vast audience the crowd was
climbing on chairs to howl its de-
light at the next governor of
Washington.
He was a revelation in oratory,
rhetoric, cultured phraseology

Through the story the person
aiity OF the man stood forth like
the embossed letters of a window

last they had found a real man,
who considered public service as
a trust and the people his real
employers and who had energy
and ability enough to carry out
the work entrusted to him.
Hodge Congratulated.
AS Hodge finished the crowd
broke for the platform and all
the way out the hall he was way
laid and congratulated. Many
women attended the meeting and
almost all of them remained to
grasp the sturdy candidate by the
hand and pledge him their sup

so near.
With his last $3.50 Thomasso
hired a horse and buggy and hur-
ried his dying wife to hospital.
Little thinking that his wife
would be refused attention, Thorn
asso drove off in haste. They
would take her, he thought.
Arriving at the hospital, he
told the authorities there of his
wife's condition.
'Have you any money!" they
asked, and would not let him in.
Thomasso turned away, tears in
his big black eyes. Speechless he
climbed to the side Of Theresa,
took up the reins, and drove away.
Back to the depot he went, un-
certain, unacQuainted, undeter-

asked the depot matron.
Telephone communication with
another hospital was rewarded
with a refusal to take the dying

left, and they called the Associated

William Hoover, manager, sat
at his desk when the telephone
rang.
"Send the woman to the county
