Colonial diaries and letters make It plain that our unfortunate ancestors suffered much from jumping ‘tooth aches, swelled faces and the early loss or forcible extraction of teeth which-at a later period might hnve been saved to render their owners many years of further service. No wonder, since the cure of the teeth was little understood, and tliut little often but negligently practiced. Toothpicks were known) the .tooth brush was not, although rough' Substi tutes were employed, made of flatten ed sticks, split and pounded at one end to a stiff, fibrous fringe. Toothbrushes wbcu Drat introduced were regurded us by no means Important accessories to the toilet, but rather as minor lux uries and suitable for women only. The diary of a London merchant trading to the colonies bus this entry: • “Bought a Toothbrush for my wife, whe-h, used together with salte water, very strong, and u wasslie of Herbs, she Is told will keep her Teethe from fulling out or getting hollowe. The suite and Herbes may well prove strengthening to her Gummes wch. are tender, hut for the brush It Seemes but u silly Toy, hardly like to ware the worth of Its price and Bcarce clenn- ley nuve when new. But she must hove It, belug a new thing late from France." In the famous collection of the let ters of the Veruey family, as well, the toothbrush is referred to as “an ele- gunt trifle, now used by the ladies of Paris.” But, when Sally Annls, a colonial belle, wrote of It to her sister she hud, like the London merchant’s wife, goad hopes of Its proving of mare then trilling value. Her seafaring father hud Just brought her one, along with other gifts. "Besides these, and ye emails Combe, be brt. me n new mouth-brush rutide of eyvory," she wrote, "the back parte lulnyeil very pretty with silver: und ye brlssles long and stiffe and sett very llrmo: wch he Is assured will help me of my Tooth Akes: web. you will guess deer Judy I do pray It may.”— Youth's Companion.

Closing of Pekin's Gate. From' the PCkln and Tientsin News. To this day the great gateB In the walla of Pekin are closed every even ing with the queer ceremonies that have been observed for centuries past The daily performance is marked with a due ceremony which la quaint and full of interest to the Intelligent on looker, as the closing by no means slgt nlfles the mere bringing together of the heavy wooden doors and the bar ring of the Emperor’s highway against all comers. At the appointed hour a preliminary signal is given by a large gong or Iron shield being struck with a big Iron bar fifty times In such quick success ion as almost to defy calculation and this Is followed by 100 double strokes commencing slowly and dreamily for the first half and gradually Increasing to half hurricane rapidity and this set of 100 blows Is repeated In precisely the same fashion three times. When: the third and last cycle of gong strokes’ Is entered on a number of old and, at this season, very much^ bewadded and muffled up old Charlies start a series or discordant yells to all and sundry to hasten or they will be shut out and this combination df signals Is followed by a jostling stream of people from both directions. t-t Presently the rush Blackens until only a solitary pedestrian or possibly a man on a donkey, full tilt, a belated ricksha or a heavily laden cart strag gles through. Then a movement Is made with the gates, yelling bursts out afreBh and another rush ensues, the gates being meanwhile half closed and occasionally opened a little way again until, the. outgoers having meanwhile ceased, there Is a final scrimmage to get Into the city, and'the process of closing, which has taken some half hour In all, Is concluded. !• . Then, the huge Iron-plated doors having clanged to„a monster Iron pole Is dragged up and placed across them on Iron supports, being retained In position by a padlock of enormous pro portions, and of the well-known Chi nese type.. There are In all In the city of Pekin, some nineteen gates and the same ceremony Is obserevd at each, but at such a thoroughfare as the Hat- amen there Is naturally more traffic and the process Is probably propor tionately longer.

Hotissaye attributes the muddle over orders at Waterloo to Napoleon’s execrable handwriting. This was the opinion of the writing master of Alex- uudre Dumas: “The emperor never lost a battle except by bis bad writing. His officers could never make out what he meant. Remember this, Alexandre, uud make your down strokes heavy and your up strokes light.” Grouchy declares that during the battle of Wa terloo he could not make out whether Napoleon wrote ”bata|Ue gngneo" or "butaille engugee," and be eonjectural- ly read "battle gained.”—Andrew Lang lu Loudon Post.
