The Soldiers Have Toothache.

From accounts which have come
from the front, toothache would seem
to be one of the hardships of cam
paigning in the trenches. The seere.
tary of the British Dental association
says that start has been made to
provide an efficient staff of dental sur
geons for service at the front. Six
dentists, who have been given the
temporary rank of lieutenant in the
Royal Army Medical corps, have left
for France, and further drafts of quail
flied men are being chosen, if they are
not actually on the way, for service
near the firing line. They will also
have the temporary rank of lieuten-
ant-London Telegraph.

Superior Beef Type.

The nation needs more meat to feed
its increasing millions. The United
States in 1906 exported 584,239 head
of cattle, In 1910 our expectation had
decreased to 9,432. During the last
six months of 1913 there were i'm
ported into this country 20.000,000
pounds of dressed meat. and during
the first eight months of the present
year 100000, 900 pounds were import
ed. The opportunity presented to the
South today to raise the beef for the
nation that is now being raised in
other countries is as great and as pro-
ductive of prosperity as that which
the great western states have enjoyed
for many years in producing beef,
pork. lard, hay. oats, etc, for the
South.

Near the French town of Sedan is
the village of Bazeilles, where some
of the fiercest fighting took place in
1870. There is tavern still standing
known as the Last Cartridge, which
was the last French position desper-
ately defended by the marines in that
bloody war. The inn, which was the
only house not burned down, now con-
tains a small museum of relics of the
battle. and one of the rooms on the

1t is a bad practice to feed idle
