Sense and Sarcasm. There-1‘s sense as well as sarcasm in l"...~P1-esident Harrison’s declaration l ‘ at he can serve his country best by looping silent now, and that perhaps some others might help in the same way. The trouble is that while Mr. Harri- son, who knows by experience the per- plcxities and burdens under which the Chief Executive staggers even in time of peace, practices the silence he rec- ommends, nothing short of paralysis or death will silence the others of whom he speaks. They belong to the class who never mad that silence is golden~or perhaps may dislike it on that very account—~ and they haven’t sense enough to real- -:‘1zethe value of a still tongue. Mr. Harrison’s promise to keep silence himself will be kept to the letter. His suggestion of silence to others will fall on cars already deafened with the clamor of their owners’ tongues. ‘A‘ first.

When the first rich discoveries of gold on the Klondike were proclaimed, the topic at once became of absorbing interest. People we1e ovez—powered by the magnitude of these riches.

A Progressive Surgeon Gets a Picture of n Troublesome Buried Tooth. The most remarkable application of the X—ray was recently made in a case in which a. child’s mouth was made to do duty as a photographic camera. It was part of an operation in dental surgery. A progressive dentist in New York state had a. case in which he suspect- ed a delayed second tooth, but no ex- ternal examination could either prove or disprove the theory. He finally de- cided on recourse to the X-ray. A mold of the upper part of the mouth was made in wax, and allowed to hard- en. On it was chiseled a flat surface directly back of the portion of the jaw to be photographed and just large enough for a photographic film less with Denmark for the cession of St. "i’homas or other of her tin.- West Indies, but the question is ramps-taut since the Senate has V'ir- l 4....) decided against the p111chase. cncver have been convinced of the advantage of such an outpost to the IEniti-d States, either for commercial 01' possessions in i military purposes, and there would ‘ seem to be some decided disadvantages. if we had to worry now about the .531“er of St. Thomas, with the Spanish ' fleet assembling at Porto Rico, the nav- al situation would certainly not be in:- proved. Spain must have a coaling station to make naval operations possi- ble so far from home, but our own sta- near, and . Lions are comparatively while it would be more cenvenient for our ships to put in at St Thomas, the necessity/0f defending the place must draw. olfa- c-OnSI‘derable forCe that could : be better employed elsewhere. This is at least the way the matter . st: ikes the ave1age mind, though naval i 1511 ategists may see it difierently. ‘ and it 1 appears to be the view that prevailed in the Senate [‘1 1day. coupled withlf be important consideration that the v.raditional policy of the United States 7.; opposed to the acquisition of non-g . contiguous territory and that it is im- ’ poi-(ant just now not to proclaim that shit policy has been altered. While we are strenuously denying any selfish designs upon the Spanish possessions, it may, have been thought unwise to be- gin annexing other property in their immediate neighborhood._ «0.

The film is sim- ply a strip of thin celluloid, coated with an emulsion which is sensitive to light. ' In a dark room the film was cut to such a shape that it would lie evenly on the plain surface chiseled in the wax mold. It was then carefully protected by an double wrapping of black paper, so that i it would not be acted upon by common light. The film, together with the wax mold, was placed in the mouth of the patient, and the head held perfectly i still for several minutes, while a heavy . current excited the X-ray tube placed in front of the face. Although the photographic film would be absolutely in its readily penetrated this envelope and cast on the film a. shadow of all the parts intervening between the tube and film On developing the film in a. dark room two small first teeth were clearly shown in the jaw, but their roots were partially absorbed. Behind them, and too far uplto be shown by an exterior. examination, a large second tooth pro- :jeoted obliquely downward. Supplied gwith the negative thus obtained by means of the X-ray, the dentist had a. clear idea of the condition he had to deal with, and it only rested with his skill to adjust the difficulties. —Chica.- go Inter— Ocean. “Bridget. does your mistress assist You in cooking?"
