Anaesthetio For the Teeth Wanted.

Anaesthetic For the Teeth Wanted.
There is no local anaesthetic that
will penetrate dentine, which forms
the principal part of a tooth. That is
why dentists hurt teeth so much when
drilling holes in them for filings or
when grinding them down for gold
crowns. Any one who will invent
something that can be put on tooth
to render it insensitive for ten minutes
without injuring it has a fortune
awaiting him.
Cocaine and noyocaine, which are
used as local anaesthetics in other
parts of the BODY, have no effect upon
the teeth, as they cannot penetrate the
hard tissue Of which these are COM
posed-New York World.

its bonded Indebtedness than other
coast cities, City Controller Meads

The only s per cent bonds

CONFESSIONS
L. OF A WIFE

It alone.
They can talk about the good
times widows--either widowed by
death or divorce-have, but un-
less you happen to be a widow
who is in love with some other
man, you certainly can expect to
lead more or less of a lonely aud
unhappy life.
You can't always be calling on
your unmarried friends, for you
will find many times you make
the traditional three that spells
a crowd.
"And here Is another thing
which makes for unrest. What
ever your husband was, you had
gotten used to him, and woman
like, unless you fall head over
heels in love-and / don't think
you are the kind of a woman who
would do that easily-yOu will be
afraid to try the thing over.
Il expect, dear, that every mar
ried woman has times when sho
wishes she were not married, and
let me tell you, dear. that she ID
not alone In that feeling.
81 am sure that every married
man also gets tired of HIS monoto-
nous mate and longs for freedom.
80 you see, dear, the only DIFF
ference is that man takes a little
browse around and usually comes
back home quite content, and
woman just lets the notion make
her restless.
No. Margie, am not al
deliriously happy with Bill as I
was when We were married the
first time, but ! think / am more
content. / don't love him as much
as ] did then, but / like him bet
ter. / have come to the conclu-
sion that Kitty Malram-now that
she is dead--seems to Bill to be
the one great love of his life.
II sit some nights across from
him at table and watch his eyes
alight as he raises his glass to his
lips, and I know he is not drink
ing to me, but to memories of her.
II am farther from him at
those times than she, although she
is beyond the Eternal gates.
But what is the use of being
jealous OF a dead woman. Bill
loves me better than any living
woman, and II he gets pleasure out
of these memories they are about
the most harmless things which
can give blaze old Bill pleasure.
Whether Kitty would have
made him as happy as do, can
not say, but / truly think II she
were here and / were over In the
great land of : never more, Bill
would probably be drinking to
memories of me. Such is he per-
verseness of human nature.
THE one great fact about
the whole matter is Margie, that
you and / and most of our friends
have too little work to do. We
spend our hours in thinking and
magnifying our eg0es."
my dear, what are we that we
should evade the law and be the
only ones who know no sorrow
nor pain?"
Thank you, Donna l said, as
she bent over and kissed me.

Helena of Montenegro, daughter
of peasant prince.
Physically the prince of
Wales is pitiably slight
head Ill shaped and bOny,
arms and legs like pipe

not clever. Those who know
him best testify he knows
his limitations and shrinks
from being king.
Given sufficient spunk, the
prince of Wales could contract
secret marriage with a non-roy-
atty, as his forebears have done
ere this. But the union would
not be legal unless the king gave
his approval.
