Slow Start

“I’ll tell you one thing,” Baid the patient, as he composed himself in the dentist’s chair. “You needn’t tell me I’ve got a bad mouth, because I know it. I’m quite aware that it has been neglected. It I had taken care of my teeth they wouldn’t be in bad condition and tn that case I shouldn’t have had to come to you. I want to have that understood before I betin.” . “That’s understood,” said the dentist. “Lean back, please, and open your mouth and let me see what’s the .rouble.” “Walt a minute,” said the patient. "Don't you tell me that you intend to conduct the examination from the outside. I know that too. I’m not going to open my mouth any wider than I can without hurting it unless it’s necessary so you needn't be alarmed. I know that’s just a professional joke, but I don’t like professional jokes.” “I won’t make any,” ths dentist assured him. “If you think you’ve got to fill the tooth you needn’t get jocular about the dam that you’re going to put into my mouth. There are twenty-five dentists in this building besides yourself and I’ll bet |lO that there isn’t one of them that hasn’t sprung that bonmot every time he’s pulled a sheet of rubber over a tooth.” “I’ll keep it in mind,” said the dentist. "I wish that you would,” said the patient. “I’ll be obliged to you. And while you might be quite right in surmising that I, never expected to wear a golden crown until after I went to that bourn from whence—that jest, too, will be superfluous.” “Are you ready now?” asked the dentist. “Just a word or two more as a matter of precaution,” said the patient. “If you think you have to put In a bridge say so plainly and simply and don’t consider the possibility of a ferry answering the purpose.” “Well,” said the dentist, a little impatiently. "I’ve come to have my teeth fixed,” continued the patient. “That’s the purpose I entertained in visiting you. L expect to suffer physically, but I haven’t any notion of allowing you to inflict mental anguish on me at the same time, if I can help it.” “Quite right, and there’s no oosasion for it,” agreed the dentist. “You. needn’t tell me, either that you aren’t going to hurt me,” stipulated the patient. “That might go down with somebody who'd never been in a dentist’s chair before, but tbto isn’t the first time with me and I know blamed well that you are going to hurt me. The painless claims of dentistry apply strictly and solely to the practitioner. You need not ask me if you hurt me. You’ll hoar me holler and -feel me jump and that ought to be enough without asking fool questions, I should think.” **l haven’t any doubt that I shall bo able to tell,” said the dentist. “I might put a glass/of water handy for you to throw at me if I don’t seem to understand and you object to telling, however.” “I don’t want to offend you,” said the patient. “Don’t misconstrue what Fm saying. I want to get this over with as amicably as possible and Fm mentioning a few of the things that have a tendency to irritate me. You can’t cheer me up with witticisms. You couldn’t make me laugh wtth laughing gas and it would interrupt your work any way, if I indulged in fits of mirth I’ll tell you now that my worst tooth —the? one that spurred ma to action —has stopped aching. It st vpvd just as I was about to got in the elevator, so I feel quite independent about it. Some men would have turned around and left ttw building without *paying you a •sot for the effect of your name as they read it in the directory, but I’m not that kind.” “Are you ready to open your mouth and lot me begin now?” asked Ao dentist. “Oh, darn HI” said the patient I suppose if I must I must.*’

Modern Helplessness.

The beet inheritance that either boy or girl may have is that of reoourcefulpeas and self-reliance. It Is a common experience of those who employ the beet brought up children of the present day, the young men who go to the best schools and soquit themselves well at the universities, that they are afflicted with a kind of helplessness. This matter,, adds Country Life, to which the MSanttoo of education loadeee dbeuM

FISH IN ENCLOSED WATERS.

Wild Duck Stocked Fresh Pool wHh Finny Denizens. v Many people, not without education and a general knowledge of natural history, are mystified by the presence of fish In enclosed waters. For many years there was open-mouthed wonder over the perch, bream, and crayfish found in the newly cut dams near the Marguarie river in New South Wales. In some cases the water had scarcely settled after the rain had filled the dam than the fish were observed, and the Australian farmers started a theory' of spontaneous production. This obtained, and gained wide credence, until a Sydney professor chanced to pick up a wild duck and found its breast feathers and webbed feet well dotted with fertile and almost hatched fishova, on which the "spontaneousproduction” theory was promptly withdrawn.

Deserved a Thrashing.

The mother of the tw’ins found them fighting furiously. Willie, the larger twin, was on top. He was beating Tommy about the face and head. “Why, William, how dare you strike your brother like that!” cried the mother, taking the boy by the ear and pulling him off. “I had good cause to strike him,” answered Willie. “What do you mean?” she asked. “Why,” said Willie with a righteous air, “didn’t I let him uve my sled all last Saturday on condition that he’d say my prayers for me all this week? And here I’ve just found out that he’s skipped three days.”—The Housekeeper.

Sugar in the French Army.

In the French Journal of Military medicine and Pharmacy reference Is made to the fact that during some military manoeuvers for three weeks the soldiers were given from 60 to 165 grams of sugar, replacing one-half of the meat ration of two companies of French soldiers. The sugar was taken readily in wine, water or coffee and no digestive disturbances were noted. Five soldiers for three days took a larger amount of sugar, viz., 300 grams, in place ot the entire meat nation. The author’s opinion was to the effect that the men were in better physical condition and had more endurance than on their ordinary ration, all of which coincides with very many other similar observations.

Odd Bits of Fact.

The United States consumes 80,000,000 pounds of tea annually. A man can insure against loss in lotteries with a company at The Hague. - There are inore doctors per capita in New York city than anywhere else In this country. Sealing wax contains no wax. The Dutch throne has forty-one possible claimants. Potatoes steeped in sulphuric acid and subjected to pressure make an excellent substitute for ivory in the manufacture of billiard balls.

Power of Public Opinion.

The Internal waterways are like everything else In this country. If the people realize their importance and the impulme and vast Importance they will be to the national commerce and make up their minds they must have waterways, they will get them. There is practically nothing which cannot be done by the force of public opinion. All other forces and factors find themselves obliged to yield to its power.—Baltimore American.

“I Told You So.”

An old couple lived in the mountains of Eastern Tennessee; he was ninety-five and she ninety. Their son, a man of seventy, died. As the old folks crossed the pasture to their cabin after the burial, the woman noticed a tear roll down her husband’s cheek. She patted him tenderly on the arm and said: “Never mind, John, never mind; you know I always said we never would raise that boy.”—Success Magazine.

Anything But That.

Little John is the youngest of a family ot five boys. One day his mother said to him, “O, John, isn’t it too bad I haven’t one little girl? I could curl her hair and make such pretty little dresses for her. Don’t you wish you were a little girl?" John grunted disgustedly, “Why, mother,” he said, “I’d rather be most any other kind of an animal you could mention than a girl!”

The Revolver Habit.

Will the time ever come when the revolver will have had Its day in America and be relegated with the sword, the dagger and the bludgeon? The revolver argument settles nothing but the contestants. It is a perpetual non sequitur, as childish as it is frightful, and as frightful as it is childish. —Minneapolis Journal.

The Right Definition for “Weird."

I Little Frances, aged four, was being put to bed alone for the first time. “Mother,” she said, “I do not like this room, it is so weird-looking.” “What does ‘weird’ mean, dear?” asked her mother. “Why,” she replied, "weird is long and dark and no-father-and-motherisb looking.”

The Captain’s Story

“My house is the biggest,” said Reginald. "WteM, mine’s the prettiest," replied Ethel, tossing her curly bead. The two children sat digging on tte hot beach sand, and I found them thus disputing as I came upon them unexpectedly. "Why, Ethel r I exclaimed/ "what are you doing here? I have been looking for you for a long while; and sitting in aU that sand with your pretty white Areas!" 7 "Isn't my house the best?” she asked, shaking out her crushed ruffles and entirely ignoring my question. I wee obliged to smile at her assumed dignity as she stood regarding her house with pride and anxiously awaiting my decision. "Weil, I think that they are both attractive,” I answered, as I saw Reginald almost in tears with humiliation I stooped to look more closely at the two sand huts. "Yours is very pretty, Ethel. Now let me see yours, Reginald.” “Oh, mine’senot so good as Ethel’s; but it’s bigger and it’s got a real plank walk." “Sure enough, child. But where did you get this smooth piece of wood?" I asked, lifting it up. “And I really think that there is writing upon IL" “Oh, I found it up there in a little sand pdle,” interrupted Ethel, “and 'I gave it to Reggy for his house; didn't I, Reggy?” and she slipped down beside her playmate. “But here comes old Captain Williams,” I exclaimed. “I really think that you two children interest him more than ids own, old ship.” “How-do! How-do! Miss Hall; and how’s my two little sunbeams to-day? They’re coming with me on my next trip, aren’t you, dears?” laughed the old captain as Reggy and Ethel seized either hand. “Yes, it’s a fine day for a stroll, and we’ll take a walk along the sand for a bit. Well, well, Miss Hall, I guess you’ve ’bout got your hands full a-watching these two squirrels.” "Well, they are somewhat of a care; but I am very much interested in a small piece of wood which Ethel dug up. It is as smooth as paper, and I can distinguish a stanza of poetry carved on the back. On the other side is something which resembles a heart cut deep into the wood and containing some tiny initials. Really, the work is that of a master-hand." The old captain examined the bit ot wood, then paused reminiscently. “Well, I do deciare?” he said. “You never can tell; you never can tell. Years ago, Miss Hall, when I was just starting out as a sailor lad I came to this spot one»summer. That large, old bouse high up on the hin was the fashionable summer boarding house. Among the vkfftors was a fine young girl with the prettiest face I ever seen. She wa»; sought after by all the young men in the place; but she wouldn’t listen tornone of them. “By and by there •came a new one to the place, a youngrcbap, a sculptor who had just come 'back from the schools of France and Italy, and he followed the rest of the boys. But he was different from them. He was the finest chap I ever seen. He wouldn’t hold up his head when he passed an old salt, like me,' but-he’d just shake hands with each and all of us. “Well, he won the girl and there was the biggest rejoicing you ever seen among the sailors. But it didn’t turn his head a bit. He was the happiest fellow I ever seen. He and his bride ’ud walk uq> and down the Ijeach and the other fellers looked on a-wishing she was the4r*n. “One day I saw them sitting dose together on the sand and I slipped down sort o’ quiet Bke and there he sat a-carving a hearUon a bit of wood. On the other side hescut a poem, then he put their names \ inside the tiny heart. He dug a deepthole in the sand and put it at the bottojn, and when he’d covered it all up he says to his wife, ‘May the one who finds this be as happy as we.’ ” The old captain paused and returned the piece ot wood to its owner. Reginald caught it and, taking Ethel by the hand, they scampered off together. . Old Captain Williams looked after them, adding softly, “May they be as happy as was he and his bride.”— Melanie Eugenie Leßlanc.

After Twenty Years.

Lee McClung, was standing on a street corner down in Lima, Peru, a few years ago, startag at an able-bodied man who looked strangely familiar. "Pardon, but may I inquire your name?” asked McClung, when the mae got up to him. "Certainly," replied the man, pleasantly, "my name’s Channing." “Did It ever so happen that you played football some years ago?” "Why. yes,” admitted Channing; "I played halfback on Princeton in Then, with a slap on the shoulder: "Say, are you Lee McClung?” Then they proceeded to get acquainted again. It was the second time they had eVer met. The first time had been on the football field — twenty years before.

SPIRAL ARROW HEADS.

Perform Complete Revolution In • •pace of 30 Inches. According to an authority of the National Museum at Washington there have recently been found in New Jersey several chalcedony arrow-heads which are so peculiar in form that, if they are genuine relics of Indian times, they seem to indicate that the red men may have sought, in some cases, to give their arrows a twisting motion, like that of a rifle ball The arrow-heads in question are cut in a spiral shape, and one of them makes a fifth of a turn in its length of two and one-half inches. Dropped point down in water, it is said, it will perform a complete revolution in a space of about 30 inches.

Take Life Like a Man.

It is a pitiable thing to see a young man whining over his lot in life, and excusing indifference and inaction because of hard luck, or some cruel fate which has put stumbling blocks in his way. No matter what your environmenL or what you may be called upon to go through, face like a man, without whining. Turn your face to the sun, your back to the shadows, and look the world in the face without wincing. Make the most of your situation. See the beauties in it and not the ugly features. This is the way to improve an unfortunate environment —Success Magazine.

Only a Lion-Tamer.

He was a giant of a man, and brought his meek-looklng little wife before the magistrate on the charge of cruelty. He described her to the court as being uncontrollable and incorrigible. He seemed sincere. A writer in the New York Times tolls the story. The magistrate looked the big fellow over carefully, and glancing at his slip of a wife, asked the husband: “What line of business do you follow 7” “I am a lion-tamer,” he proudly replied. ,

Among His Books.

Exactly what it means to be "literary" is an open questiox Sometimes it implies that a person writes, sometimes merely that he is a lover of good reading. A new definition is suggested in the following story from the Denver Republican: /’Smith doesn’t strike me as literary," remarked a man, “yet he declares that he never feels so comfortable as when he is snugly settled in his library." “Oh, that’s not surprising,” explained his companion. "Smith’s bookcase is a folding bed.”

That Depends on the Point of View.

An Englishman and an Irishman were overheard discussing Miss Annette Kellermann and her "Diving Venus” act at the Fifth Avenue Theater recently. Said the former: “She came nearer swimming the Channel than anybody ever did." “How close did she co*-*?’’ inquired the Irishman. “Eleven miles.” “Which coast?” "The English, I think." “Then, begorra, that was close enough.”—Success Magazine.

Disposing of His Pretensions.

Military Germany versus pugnacious Ireland appears in an anecdote related in Everybody’s Magazine. “Dose Irish make me sick, alvays talking about vat gread fighders dey are,” said a Teutonic resident of Hoboken, with great contempt. “Vhy, at Minna’s veddlng der odder nlghd dot drunken Mike O’Hooligan butted in, und' me und mein bruder und mein cousin Fritz und mein frient Louie Hartmann—vhy, ve pretty near kicekd him outd of der house."

Metal Has New Properties.

When 70 per cent of cerium is alloyed with 30 per cent of iron the metal thus produced possesses the remarkable property qf giving off a shower of sparks when struck lightly by a steel wheel. This substance has been employed for making auto igniters for gas burners, miners’ acetylene lamps and cigar lighters. Recently it has been proposed to utilize it for igniting motor headlights, and oven as a substitute for electric ignition in the cylinders.

A Complete Disguise.

Little Jessie wad very proud of her new coat and bonnet that her mama had just bought for her. One day, not long afterward, she was going to visit her cousin. After marching around awhile with the new coat and bonnet on she exclaimed, “O mama, Dora won’t know me, will she? She’ll open the door and say ’Why! Japple Donneburger, who are you?*"

First Aid.

"If you were called upon to deal with a hysterical person," asked the examiner at the emergency class, "what would you do?" "I’d amputate his funny-bone," said the student, with a turn for surgery and humor.

Baby's Stomach, Hands and Feet.

Mothers have a tendency to overclothe baby In summer. If Its stomach and bowels Are properly protected by a flannel binder, then the less It Is hampered the better. So long as the baby’s hands and feet are warm and dry It Is all right
