DENTISTS IDEA OF HUM0R
Seems Mean to Invite Man to Lunch
and Then Fix Him So He
Can't Eat.

1t was noon when we dropped into
the dentists Office. The doctor greeted
us cordially as we fell into his chair
and prepared to submit ourselves TO
torture
There was the usual Clatter of in
struments on the white tray as We
opened our jaws and the dentist peer
ed into them. This time his object Of
attention was the cavity from which
he had recently extracted tooth.
"What are you going to do after l
get through" said the doctor mildly.
Between his fist and his mirror we
olurted out something about lunch.
GO TO lunch with me. will you!'
We nodded our assent and then it
happened. Something that felt as big
as q crOwbar is and was as sharp as a
new safety razor blade is supposed to
be went up into the roof Of our mouth.
When we landed down again on the
chair and the pain had eased off Il
trifle we started to laugh.

 One recruit, an Indian, stepped along showing such elasticity he seemed built of steel springs, while immediately behind him was a fat recruit with knock knees, a picture of awkwardness.
 Some of tho men look lean and fit. others are gross and overweight Very often, especially among the California recruits, men are found with arms and legs tanned rich brown while the remainder of their bodies are quite fair, due to the protection of their bathing suits.

NO INTEREST IN SOPHIA EXCEPT
 SENTIMENTAL
Underwriters Give Her Up, and Believe Search for Bodies Would Be
 FruitIeSS Now.

There is only sentimental interest left in the Princess Sophia according to Capt. w. H. Logan, representing Lloyd's underwriters, who is in Jul ncau aboard the wrecker Tees, which was chartered by the underwriters to make an examination of the wrecked vessel Capt. Logan says the vessel is a total loss, and the underwriters ,have no further financial interest in it.
 Capt. Logan says examinations by the divers and soundings disclose that the Princess Sophia is broken in two in about the middle, and the whole after portion of the vessel is lost in water too deep for eXamina- ton.
 Capt. Logan says the staterooms of the vessel have all been carried away, and he is convinced that it would be impossible to locate any more bodies in the portion of the Princess Sophia that it is possible to reach with divers. That is partic- ularly true now, he says, when the water is rough.
 The forward part or the vessel is in about 90 feet of water and the after portion of that which still clings to the shelf is in water over 100 feet deep. The surface of the lipht .penetrates the water He says water is constantly rough, and no ttcre would have to be an absolutely sr'o0'h surface to permit work.
 The recoveries of tho divers have already been described by The Elm pire. The smoke stack and top DOT tions of the vessel have been washed away. The door to the pursers of flee was discovered among the vreckage of the vessel miles from the scene of the wreck, and other portions of the superstructure of
