New Jersey Dentist First
to Fill Tooth With Gold

The first dentist to fill the nerve
cavity with gold was Edward Maynard,
who was born in Madison, N. j., 1O5
years ago. Maynard was also the in
ventor Of many Of the instruments
now used in dental surgery. He had a
varied career. His ambition was to be-
come q soldier, and he was appointed
to the West Point Military academy,
but resigned because of i'll health. In
1885 he graduated in dental surgery
and settled in Washington, where he
practiced for IS years. While Doctor
Maynard was experimenting with i'm
proved filings for teeth, and inventing
new appliances, Doctor William T. G..
Morton, a Boston dentist, robbed sur
gerry Of much Of its horrors by intro
ducing the use Of ether in operations.
This was in 1874, few years after
the first dental college in America was
founded In Baltimore. Doctor May
nard was also the inventor of the
breech-loading Maynard rifle patented
in 1851, which was the forerunner Of
the modern rifle. He died in Washing
ton In 1891.

FIunky Wastes Own Time
as Well as That of Others

The feeling that idleness is a crime
under present conditions is rapidly
spreading all over the country. A sher-
iff in Sherman, Tex, recently an
nounced that every man in his juris@
diction would either go to work or
go to Jail. The Ku Klux Klan recent.
ly reappeared in Birmingham, Ala,
with warning to all idlers. Sew.
eral states have recently passed laws.
providing that every able-bodied man
must work so many hours a day, and
many towns, and cities have begun to.
enforce laws to the same effect.
But the idea that superfluous and
unnecessary work Is worse than idle.
ness does not seem to have made so,
much progress. Yet it Is patiently
true, writes Frederick ]. Haskin, in,
Springfield Union. The flunky wastes,
not only his own time but often also.
the time and money of those he serves.
The man who takes job that WON.
an could hold Is not only neglecting the.
work he should do, but is deprivins
some woman Of the independent I'm
come that might release another man.

Longest Submarine Cable
Is 3,458 Nautical Miles

The longest continuous stretch of
submarine cable now working, that is,
without relay, is 3,45S nautical miles
that from Vancouver to Tanning is
land in the Pacific, and the average
distance without relay is much less
than this. 1t is evident, therefore,
that on the long transoceanic cables
such as those across the Pacific, is
lands must be found for relay stations.
This explains the rivalry Of certain
Of the European nations for the pos.
session Of small, solitary islets, scarce
iy more than mere rocks, and useless
except for just such a purpose as this.
This was the reason for Germany's
acquisition Of the Caroline and Mar.
ianne islands and later Of one of the
Samoan group, at the time of our war
with Spain. Similarly England is to
be found In possession OF conveniently
placed islands all over the world.

British Food Experts Tell
How Potato Butter Is Made

Butter, which formerly was an exclu-
sive product of the COW, will in future
be made from nuts and potatoes. The
latest substitute to compete with the
bovine nectar Of the meadow and the
silo has been announced by the con-
servation department of the United
States food administration to be pota-
to butter.
From the home Of the magma char
ta" comes a recommendation by the
British ministry of food that potato
butter can be made for ten cents a
pound. Here is the modus 0perandi: !:
"Peel the potatoes. Boil until they
fall to pieces and become floury. Rub
them through fine sieve into warm
ed basin. To IA ounces of potatoes
add two ounces Of butter or marga-
rine and one tablespoonful Of salt.
Stir until smooth. Mold into rolls.
Keep in a cool place. Use butter col
oring to improve the appearance. II

days, use butter preservatdvs.~

Automobiles Climb Fences.

In many parts Of the West and
Southwest where automobiles are nu-
merous 1t is becoming common to
drive ones car over fence instead Of
stopping to open gate, drive through,
and then shut 1t. The new and quick
er method Is made possible by the
construction Of inclines which make II
an easy matter to mount to the top
OF the barrier and then descend on the
other side.' The inclines are usually
composed Of two tracks. set the prop
er distance apart for automobile wheels
and supported by posts.-Popular Mr.

OUR LITTLE HOUR

Our little hour-how swift 1t flies
When poppies flare and lilies smile;
How soon the feeting minute dies.
Leaving us but little while
To dream our dream, to sing our song,
To pick the fruit, to pluck the flower.
The gods-they do not give US long
Our little hour.
Our little hour-how short time
To wage our wars, to fan our hates,
To take our I'LL of arrhored crime.
To troop our banners. storm the gates.
Blood on the sword, our eyes blood-red,
Blind In our puny reign of power.
Do we forget how soon Is sped
Our little hour?
Our little hour-how soon it dies;
How short a time to tell our beads,
To chant our feeble ntanies,
To think sweet thoughts, to do good
deeds.
The altar lights grow pale and dim.
The bells hang silent in the tower
So passes with the dying hymn
Our little hour.
