Blacksmith and Dentist,

It is astonishing to find that there
is anyone living at the present day
who has had his teeth pulled out by
the village blacksmith. Yet there are
such.
It was quite a common thing at one
time to go to the village blacksmith
for extractions. His principal quail
ication for the job was a strong pair
Of pincers. After gripping the offend
ing tooth with the pmcers he would
screw the long handles in a wise so
that the patient could not move.
Then, putting a bar Of iron in the
fire till it was blazing hot, he would
dab it at the victims nose. He would,
Of course, violently draw back, leaving
the tooth behind. It was all done
very quickly and cleverly.-London
Tit-Bits.
American physicians have started q
movement to make New York the med
ical center of the world. The wonders
performed during the war by Ameri-
can surgery uphold this claim, and it
is the more feasible since the fetch of
Germany as the supreme center Of
science and musical art has been large
ly destroyed in the general wreck Of

Look here, Sumner. That was all
very well year ago-when I made
the offer. You will not resent it, I am
sure, if I recall that you did not
amount to a great deal, financially and
ambitiously speaking, about that time.

burning log. A girls eyes persisted in
gazing at him from the fireplace, girl

way he (Gaylord) had been living a
year previous. He knew 1t well, be-
cause it was what had cost him the
girl. who mad meant very great deal
to him and who, now that she was
gone, he had come to realize was life
itself to him.
They had been engaged and their
wedding planned to take place in a
year. The year was up today, and
here was he, lonely and morose, with
out knowledge of her whereabouts.
The girl would have stood by him,
he was convinced in spite of his glar-
ing faults. and in spite Of the repeat
ed shattering Of his resolution to do
better; but there was her father to
reckon with. Gaylord could see now
that the father had been square
enough about it and had only looked
after his daughters happiness; al
though at the time the decree, "You
have bad your last chance" seemed
wholly unjustified. Twice the girls
father had tried to reason with Cay
lord and pursuade him to change his
mode of living and finally had given
1t up as hopeless and closed the doors
of his home to his daughters fiance
who then and there ceased to be 9
Nance. The girl insisted to the last
that she loved Gaylord and cried when
she gave him back the ring, but de-
cleared she knew her fathers course
was the best and that duty to him
made it impossible for her to disre-
gard his wishes. Furthermore, she
said, she knew Gaylord would not lead
the life he did If he really cared for

Layard leaned back and waited for
his friend to state his errand, but
Sumner seemed in no hurry. He sim

of smile and explained:
