No man should apply for the position who has not health, a vigorous physique and a retentive memory { supplemented by pa tience and endurance. His duties arc of the most irksome and tedious nature. Ater receiv ing an appointment a clerk is put on a six months probation at the rate of £300 per year. Then his troubles begin.

Many who arc hunting soft jobs under the federal government, especially if a resident from a small railroad town, turns his eyes lougingiy to the railroad mail service.

He did not experience the least trouble with it aflev it hud been transplanted. Thi3, however, is not u new process, as it has boon practiced for a century. According to dental history it was quite common for the royal ty of England to purchase teeth from theii healthy subjects and have them transplanted in to their own mouths. The medical journals o the present day' frequently report instances of •the kind and some arc much more wonderful than the artificial socket referred to in Jlie paragraph quoted above. Perhaps there is no profession that has made more progress within the last few years than that of dentistry. An Enquirer-Sun representative learned this when he called in at one of our dental offices yesterday and asked the question: “Doctor, is there anything new in dentistry?” “Well, thut depends on how well posted you are. There are so many things going on in our profession that what I call old might be entirely new to you and a great many of your readers. Within the last fifteen years there has been rapid strides in materials, instruments and office ar rangements. It lias only been a few years since •the dentist went from house to house with a plain head rest made of wood, something like the back of a barber’s chair, with little iron brackets, which was attached to the back of a plain split-bottom chair. The dentist, with a half broken back, would dig out the decay and with ill-assorted in struments fill teeth and do other dental work that was needed. Now with improved chairs and dental engines, which are run by electric and water motors, with their many attachments, which are only to be seen to bo appreciated, the work of filling teeth for good patients often becomes a pleasure to us and very uiiie iuej.:- venience or trouble to the patient.” “Speaking of methods, wh.it do you mean by methods, doctor ?” “In tilling teeth the fir3t thing to be taken into consideration is the cavity and qpndition of the tooth and the material we will use. These con ditions often make us change our methods in treating the tooth. The different materials we may use are numerous, but the main objects to consider is the computability of the material with the tooth structure; the mechanical part of the operation is the last thing tc consider.” “You fill them with gold?” “Yes, although teeth are filled v ith different kinds of cements, and they uie often used to a great advantage, frequently better than gold; for, as I said before, there are limes when we must consider what is best for the patient in many re spects, before we conclude what material to use; but when wo find good tooth structure, and the cost is no consideration, we will, as a general thing, use gold.” “How about the methods of filling with gold ?” “The first method ofintroducing t he gold into the cavity, that we practiced, was packing it by hand pressure with smooth-pointed instruments, burnishing and polishing with flat-lieaded steel instruments. This method was practiced until just about the commencement of the war or a little belore. About that time Dr. \V. H. Atkin son, who was then living in Ohio, introduced a new method which was called mallettiiig, driving and packing the gold into the cavity with a small leaden mallet, weighing from three to teu ounces. This method embraces the various different methods of walietting in the goid— the automatic, and there are many kinds of them; then the electric and the mechanical mal- lett made by Dr. Bonnill. All of these instru ments I have used, and you see I have them here trying to get all the good out of them I can, for the benefit of my patients. But many of these instruments are not of much use to every dentist. There are some who are skilled in the use of one and like it—while others, vice versa. In the hands of some these various instruments are used to a great advantage, and dentists using them become quite distinguished. Still, all these various improvements are embraced in what we call the second or mallet- ing method. The honor of discover ing it belongs, and is generally conceded by the The principal event of local importance in Browneville the past week was the meeting at the Baptist church on Tuesday and Wednesday last of the Harris Association, a new association formed a year ogo, from portions of Bee and There were about fifty minis ters and delegates present, and the two days were appropriately occupied in tlie consideration of matters of interest connected with Baptist churches in the coalition nanud.

Suppose a clerk is on the east run from here, taking in the Southwestern rond. Macon is a distributing point for counties back of it and Fort Valley is another distributing point for all southwest Georgia and parts of Florida. So that between here and there three packages have to be made up—oue for Fort Valley and Macon dis tribution each and one for Macon, beside a separate pouch for every post office on the run. While at work a clerk labors for about sixteen hours a day on an average, and it is not strange that they break down and require an absolute rest. But sometimes it happens that when a clerk reaches his relief station, where he is sup posed to rest before the return trip, the clerk who should take his place fails for one cause or another to materialize and so the poor fellow has to hold on and labor hours and hours of over time. In some of the larger cities in the postoffico building there are dormitories where the tired clerks, who happen to reside a great way from the office, can, if they wish, immediately retire to rest after coming in off their run; or if they leave on an early train they can be called by the night watchman. A railway postal clerk is required to know thoroughly the railway and stage routes, the times of trains at junctions through the states for which he makes close connection. Every clerk is furnished monthly with a schedule of mail trains, and he must not only make a close study of it, and be familiar with the time in his own division, but also with the times of trains in other divisions, with which and by which he for wards mail. He must do all this and still hustle round, keep prepared for the periodical ex aminations which lie undergoes, find time to and this honorable body, acting as the grand in quest of the county, assign as a reason for this lnipny reform that it is mainly attributable to the closing of barrooms. Be it, therefore, resolved by the citizens of Browneville, in mass meeting assembled: 1. That we favor the total prohibition of the liquor traffic. 2. That we petition the legislature of Alabama to enact such laws as will most effectually pro hibit this nefarious business. 3. That we endorse the Stale Temperance Al liance and send six representatives to the next Montgomery on the 16th ins you can buy Smith's for a quarter, and two of pills wo* th attention i* rains or if it. rains the able Pills will net come uul through every lime /oil good. profession, to Dr. W.
