bites on them without thinking:
no more tooth troubles. From
the very day the teeth are put

One man left our office one
afternoon about 5 o'clock and
within an hour was enjoying

In years.
Another wanted corn on the
cob and another to bite into a
big, juicy apple-all OF them

eating line which they wish 10
enjoy again after being forced
to go without for years because
they had no teeth to chew with.
We will give you the teeth

What with the "Workhouse"
and the odd Folks Refuge"
Berne placed herself in the way
of limiting to Europe the plan of
a differential treatment of the
worthy and the worthless whom
poverty throws upon the charity
of a city.
To another Swiss city, to
Zurich, belongs the honor of
having set to the world many
years ago an example of high
consideration for the Children of
the state" Zurich has realized
the responsibility of the com
munity for these helpless lives.
Children are never sent to the
workhouse. The boarding out
system is universal.
The primary school is not con-
sidered sufficient. Children are
sent to the secondary schools
as well. A technical or COM
mercial education is given them
in order that they may never
need to claim public support in
after life.
Orphans are received in the
municipal orphanage by a COM
mittee of the City Council. And
ii is alleged that the whole idea
of the orphanage is to bring up
the children not rs paupers nor
as the recipients of charity, but
"as children of the Swiss middle
class"
And again politco- economic
reasons are alleged for this large
beneficence; It pays the city and
the state to lose money in build
ing men.
Switzerland has no coasts to
defend, and therefore no navy.
She has no spirited foreign policy,
and therefore no huge standing
army. She has no colonies. and
therefore her eyes are not in the
end of the earth. She has her
own problems of poverty and of
vice, But she knows how to

SCHILLER AND GOETHE,

c. E.-Schiller was. from all
accounts, much finer man than
Goethe, but in mental grasp and
artistic power the Sage of Wei
mar was head and shoulders
above his dear friend Schiller.
The Germans know this, and
while they love Schiller far more
than they do Goethe, they are not

CREOLES.

F. NJ. R.-Disabuse your mind
at once Of the idea that "Creoles"
are crosses between whites and
negroes, Indians or some other
non white breed. Creole is q
term originally used to designate
an inhabitant Of the Spanish col
onies who was descended from
the European settlers, as distin
guished from the aborigines, the
negroes and mulattoes. The same
thing applies to the French Gre
oles." The French Creole is the
descendant of the original French
settlers In this country, and is in
no sense a negro. Indian or other
nom Caucasian person.

W. H. E.-You can probably

could not do better than to turn

BIRDS.

S. NJ. A.-The first birds were
not much like those of the pres
ent time. The "pterodactyl,"
supposed to be the pioneer of
bird life, was a great feather
winged monster, with great
spears on the hinges of the wings
and a mouth full Of sharklike
teeth. The pterodactyl did not
sing, and could we have seen
him we would not have felt like
singing ourselves. True birds.
and especially the warblers, are
very late in geologic time. There
was no bird melody in the car
boniferous jungles. The singers,
in all probability, did not greatly
antedate the human race.

~ ETROSPECTION and intro

= - with the holiday season.
We love to look backward, to re-
call old times, old scenes and old
faces. The tendency Of the hui
man heart, at this time of year, Is
to spread the table OF memory
with regrets, and to feast upon
melancholy thoughts.
The holidays are holy days to
many people, who devote them to
the memories of missing ones.
