Twenty-third street dentist's are
about 150 “human teeth mounted on thin
steel swivels about two inches long. A
man who sat in the dentist's ofllce the
otherda,holdingwithhothhanda a
he thought was likely to jump
head, it so bad, stared at
and wondered if it held trophies
holding an animated discussion with a
fair woman patient who sat in the big
chair of torture. Pretty soon he took this
ring of teeth from the wall. and the man,
withthc jumping hi-cnspid saw him go
through a maneuver that he thought ex-
ceedingly strange. lie stood in front of
his patient and, selectinga tooth fromthe
ring, he would hold it. by the side of her
face, and then look at «her as though he
were in some impossible way contemplat-
ingtheeifect. Then he would take an-
other and go through the same operation.
Finally he made an entry of some kind in
, a little book, told his patient to come
~’ Tuesday, and hung the ring up on the
' wall again.
When the man with the bicuspid had
climbed out of the chair with the tierce
edge of his toothache dulled a little by a
big wad of savory creosote, he asked the
dentist whatJis curious operation with
the casianei of tool h might mean.
“It was a very simple matter,“ said the
artist of the forceps and the nerve ex-
tractor. ”I was trying to find ntooth
that would suit her complexion. No, you
needn't laugh. It isn‘t a joke. It’s the
latest lad in dentistry, and when you
come to understand it, you will wonder
somebody hasn’t thought of it before.
Haven‘t you occasionally noticed that
somebody whom you have met has a set
of false teeth, and you know it perfectly
well, though you can't tell why? There
is something abut“ the appearance of the
teeth, you don’t know what it is, that
tells you, and in a vaguely unpleasant
sort of way, that they are false. Yousee
some otherwise good looking woman
laugh, for instance. and the first glimpse
you get of her teeth strikes you as disa-
greenble, although they may be white,
pearly and even. Did you ever guess
what was the matter?
"The trouble was that the woman's
false teeth, though excellent in every
other way, no doubt, and costing a sum
that probably made her husband wince,
were not of a tint to suit hcr complexion.
I know of scores of women. and no doubt
there are thousands and thousands of
them in New York, who have uncon-
sciously made perfect. spectacles of them-
selves that way. qujust think how a
woman with black hair and an olive. com-
plexion would look with perfectly white
teeth. The effect is the ghastlicst thing
you ever saw, when you more to think of
it. Yet I'll bet there are. 10,000 black
haired women in New York who are
wearing false teeth as white as a sepul—
chre. Then what. would you think of a
blonde with blue eyes and light hair and
yellow teeth like these! That would look
nice,wonldu’t it! Well, just notice how
many bloude women you see disfigured in
just that way. Think of the spectacle a
red headed woman makes when she opens
hernumth tolangh and showsthe teeth
some blacksmith of a dentist made as yel-
low as a South Brooklyn agne victim! It
h dreadful to all persons of cultivated
aenaihilitiea. Dark complexioued persons
should have teeth of about this shade,"
showing a yellowish tinted tooth on the
ring. “Light complexioned persons should
have lighter tinted teeth. Red headed
persons look best with a sort of gleaming
white that is not just a dead white, but
is not at all yellow. .
“It’s the same way nlmut the ages of
people. An old man with a wrinkled
skin and gray hair looks hideous with
white teeth. It's unnatural, and I think
that even the East river oysters must
know that such a man has false teeth,
and ill made false teeth at that. The
way we do now is to notice the complex-
ion carefully, and then strike a tint
that agrees with it. These teeth that you
seeon the ring are made of porcelain.
They are of every shade and variety of
lint known to the profession. Each one
is numbered. As soon as we find out the
almdethat is wanted for a customer we
send the number to the factory, and the
wholeset is made of that tint.
“That’anconsiderable advance in the
dentists‘ art, but it is small compared
with some other things that have been
accomplished since the days when false
teeth, plate and all, were all carved out
of asolid piece or ivory."
“When was that?"
“About a century ago. There is such a
set, or, rather, two such sets, one for the
upper and one for the lower jaw. that
were made for George Washington. in the
poaeeaaim of a New York dentist. They
were carved with almost infinite labor out
of solid ivory. On each side at the back
were little goldsprlngs that kept pressing
the two sets apart. That prevented their
slipping out, but made them terribly tire-
some to the unfortunate man who wore
them, and if he everwcnt to sleep with
them in his month they pried his mouth
open and made him snore. They were
very clumsy teeth, we would think, and
only to be used onetateoocaaiona.”-New
York Commercial Advertiser.

theory was all right except on one point-—
the rats declined to eat the pieces of

catch all the rats in the sewers without
hankrupting the city in their purchase.
The plan which works the beat. is to
huntthepeatawith dogs trained for rat
killing. Every now and then gangs of
men go down into the sewers, and by fol-
lowing severel converging galleries man-
age to drive whole armies of rats toward
a single point, where these dog are let
loose and great slaughter follows. The
men who keepthese rat dogs are paid one
cent for every rodent destroyed. Another
class of rat catchers operate on the streets
after nightfall, but their aim is to capture
the auirnal alive, so as to sell it to the
owners of terriers. These fellows receive
ten cents a dozen. for live rats, and are
permitted to keep the dead bodies, which
have a market value of from three to four
cents, the skins being excellent for kid
gloves, while the bones can be made up
into toothpicka and ear cIcaners.-—Parls

Glacier- ]: British Columbia.
Pushing on, email glaciers are visible
on all sides, winding their way down
through the mountain ravines. Ahead of
us one of the grandest glaciers of the
Selkirks is visible, pronounced by some to
be several hundred feet in depth—u sea of
ice slowly working its course to the valley
below, doingvbattle with and conquering
huge rocks on its way. Here we see
enormous slabs of clear, green ice, as big
as the side of a house, tumbled together,
some standing erect, like immense grave
stones. Now we are startled by a sharp
cracking sound, which rcsouuds through
the mountains, as some large bulk of ice
topples over, or settles deeper in its place.
One may read a lifetime and form no con-
ception of such scenes as here present
themselves; cold type cannot reproduce
them or do them justice. Turning from
the impressive grandeur of this enormous
field 0! ice, the eye wanders oil to the
“snow masses" of the wild mountains,
noting the ever changing effect of light

Recently I had occasion to look up some
old association records that dated back a
number of years, and it occurred to me,
much to my surprise I must confess, how
some of the most commonplace data is
overlooked by men who hold high and re-
sponsible positions as secretaries or clerks
of institutions. Take for instance one
item: The association had during the
couraeof several years made changes in
its quarters, and it washnportant toknow
the exact date that certain building: were
occupied. There was nothing on record,
noteveu in the minutes, toshow where
the meetings were held. Almatinvariably
the record would open “The association
met in regular-eaten president so and

members had to be hunted up, and infoar
