holding an animated discussion with a
nu- woman patient who sat in the big
chair of torture Pretty soon he took the
ring of teeth from the wall. and the man
withthe jumping bicuspid saw him go
through a maneuver that he thought ex-
ceedingly strange. He stood in front of
his potiont and, aelectinga tooth from the
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—
ingthecffect. Then he would take an—
other and go through the some 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 bi-cnspid had
climbed out. of the chair with the fierce
edge of his toothache dulled a little by a
big wad of savory creosote. he asked the
dentist what his curious operation with
the castanet of teeth might mean.
“It was at very simple matter,” said the
artist of the forceps and the nerve ex-
tractor. "l was trying to tind atooth
J that would suit her complexion. No, you
needn’t laugh. It isn‘t a joke. it’s the
latest fad in dentistry, and when you
come to understand it, you will wonder
somebody hasn’t thought at it before.
llaven’t you occasionally noticed that
somebody whom you have Inet has a set
of false teeth, and you know it perfectly
well. though you can‘t teilwhy! There
is something about the apical-once 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-
greeable, although they may be white,
pearly and even. Did you ever guess
what was the matte-rt,
"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 her 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. Now just think how a
woman with black hair and an olive (‘OIII-
plexion u'ould look with perfectly white
teeth. The etfcct is the ghastliest thing
you ever saw, when you come to think of
it. Yet I‘ll be: there are 10.000 black
haired women in New lork uho are
wearing false teeth as whiteas a sepal-
chre Then what would you think of a
blondewith blue eyes and light hair and
yellow teeth like these? That would look
nice. wouldn‘t it? Well, just notice how
many blonde women you see disfigured in
just that way. Thinkof the spectaclea

h dreadful to all persons of cultivated
sensibilities. Dark complexioned persons

showing a yellowish tinted tooth on the
ring. “Lightcomplexioned personsshonld
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 some way about theagesof
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
tint known to t profession. Each one
b numbered; . . soon as we find out the
shade that is wanted for a customer we
send the number to the factory, and the
whole set is made of that tint.
“'I‘hat'saconsiderable advance in the
dentists art, but it is small compared
with some other things that have been
accomplished since the days when raise
, teeth, plate and all, were all carved out
of asolid piece of ivory.“
“When was that?"
“About a century ago. There is such a
set, or, rather, two sut‘h sets, one for the
upper and one for the lower jaw. that
were made for George Washington. in the .
possession of a New York dentist. They
were carved with almost infinite labor out
of solid ivory. On each side at the back
were little gold springs 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 ever went to sleep with
them in his month they pried his mouth
open and made him snore. They were
veryclumsyteeth,we would think, and

men who keep these rut dogs are paid one

class of rat catchers operate on the streets
after nightfall, but their aim is to capture
the animal 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

Glaciers In British Columbia.
Pushing on, small 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~a sea of
ice slowly working its course to the valley
below, doing battle with and conquering
huge rocks on its way Here we see
enormous slabs of clear, green ice, as big
as the side of a heuse, tumbled together
some standing erect like immense grave-
stoues. Now we are startled by a sharp
cracking sound, which resouuds 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 of ice. the eye wanders off to the
“snow masses" of the wild mountains,
noting the ever changing etfect of light
and shadow on these snowy peaks and
the great white amphitheater. We stand
and gaze on the silent, lonely, but en-l
trancing scene. 3

TheShakore have a keen appreciation
of the housefly and dignity of labor.
Every one of them has some useful work
to do, according to age, sex and strength.
Perhaps no class of people has done more
for the country than they, when it is re-
membered how few they are in number.
They originated the drying of sweet corn
for food more than fifty years ago, and
suggested the modern improved kilns for
that purpose. They were the first in this
country'to institute the raising, papering
and vending of garden seeds in the present
styles. They originated in this country
the botanic practice 0! medicine, and first
ilried and prepared medicinal herbs and
roots for market. They were the first to
make brooms oi broom brush, and. in
fact, originated the entire broom business:
The first but: saw was manufactured by
the Shakers at Harvard, Mass, and used
both there and at New Lebanon. The
Shaken first invented and used the plan-
lng and jointing machines for dressing
flooring and ceiling lumber. They were
the inventors and manufacturers of cut
nails. The first machine for cutting and
hauling card teeth and punching the
leather for setting was invented and used
at Mount Lebanon, and for years the
Shakers hada practical monopoly of all
the above named trades and forms of
business—New York World.
Valuable lllat to Secretaries.
Recently i had occasion to look up some
old association records that dated back a
number of years, and it occurred to me,
much tomy surprise 1 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. Me for instance one
item: The association had during the
its quarters, Mid it was important toknow
the exact date that certain buildings were
occupied. There was nothing on
noteven in the minutes, to show where
the meetings were held. Almost invariably
the record would open “The association
met in regular-mien, president so and
so in the chair and the following members
present." Well, of course, some of the
