Until little more than century ago
humanity had to rub along without
false teeth, of which nowadays one
firm alone claims to sell over 12,0O0,-
900 year. The first successful maker
was Giussepangelo Fonzi an italian
dentist, who started practice In Paris
In 1898. and, thanks to his skillful
treatment of Lucien Bonaparte, soon
made his way. After years OF expert
ment he discovered the substance
from which artificial teeth are made,
and received the gold medal OF the
French academy of Science. One of
the earliest persons fitted with false
teeth was the empress OF Russia. Aft
er Waterloo Fonzi migrated to London
end then to Madrid where Ferdinand
VII. rewarded him with a yearly pen
sion Of 1,0oe dacats for set OF ealse
teeth.

ELIMINATING HORSE IN WAR.


Ks the horse to be eliminated from
warfare? European countries find ii
Increasingly difficult to provide horses
for the cavalry and artillery branches
of their armies, and their transport
and supply trains are increasing in
magnitude and tn their drain upon the
horse markets. At the recent British
army maneuvers some OF the cavalry
divisions did not take part because Of
the lack of horses. The Greek army,
after the Turkish war of 1897, was
obliged to rehorse throughout at enor-
nous expense with horses bought
from Normandy, Hungary and Eng.
land but when 1t came to purchasing
all the transport and supply animals
afreSh for the late war the Greeks
wisely invested in 100 INCORPORATES,
which together with those they al
ready had wers sufficient to do half
of the work of the whole army. Still
more interesting rs the fact that when
the Bulgarian war broke out certain
conSignments Of horses had not yet
arrived, and several batteries OF artil
Nlery could not be horsed Necessity
was the mother OF enterprise, and the
guns and limbers were harnessed up

tax was made at the sessions of the
county board on Wednesday afternoon.
The county school tax levied against
the city this year is $16,950, an in
crease of less than $4,000 over the
amount levied last year. Even smaller
increases were made on the various
towns in the county. This money is
supposed to be returned to the schools
by the state in an equal amount. The
taxes for the various towns and the

the board on Wednesday afternoon.
After the tax had been levied the
board listened to the annual reports
of the county clerk, county agent and
the soldiers relief commission and
these reports were referred to commit
tees for audit. Members of the board
then went to make the annual inspec-
ton of the municipal court and the
county Jail. They found the municipal
court in a badly disturbed condition
with the workmen of the Wisconsin
Gas and Electric Company busily en-.
gagged in making an effort to get some
heat into the building. The Jail was
found to be in excellent condition.
Plans for a new heating plant at the
municipal court were discussed but the
members of the board will probably
give the Central Heating plant another
chance to see what it can do.
