Bishop Whipple ns a Dentist.
On one of the first of his journeys to
the west one of the Indians came to
Bishop Whipple and said, “Wi-bid-
akosi” (My tooth is sick), and asked
for relief. Bishop Whipple was unable
to give it and was greatly distressed.
Accordingly, upon his first visit to Chi
cago he went to a friend who was a
dentist and asked to be shown how to
extract teeth. He was told to separate
the ligaments around the tooth, to take
a firm grip and then to pull.
Equipped with an old pair of den
tist’s forceps, he went back to his work,
and when, after the service at White-
fish lake, an Indian came to him with
his hand to his face and asked for re
lief the good bishop produced his
forceps and started upon his career as
an unregistered dentist.
The A ‘siek tooth” was a large upper
molar, but the bishop never blanched.
Neither did the Indian! With stolid in
difference to the pain the red man sub
mitted to the operation, which. Bishop
Whipple confessed, must have been a
bungling one at best, and the tooth
was finally twisted out. and the bishop
had the satisfaction of hearing the ohl
chief afterward telling his people.

Suddenly he rose like one who has

Teapots and coffeepots do not go
back very far, since tea and coffee
were not introduced into Europe until
the seventeenth century, and no silver
tea pot or kettle is known of earlier
than 1700. Festoons and medallions
are characteristic ornaments of tea
pots of the time of the early Georges.
Not until the middle of the eighteenth
century, however, do we find silver
urns, tea strainers and tea caddies.
Cream jugs followed the fashions of
the larger pieces.
The first English sauceboat in silver
belongs to the*year 1727. Silver can
dlesticks are older, being found first,
with square bases and fluted columns,
in the reign of Charles II. Medallions,
festoons and drapery characterize later
candlesticks, and the Corinthian col
umn pattern, so great a favorite, was
first introduced about 17Go. Cake lias

Democracy In Switzerland.
The Swiss girl is taught to be hum
ble and practical from the moment
when, at four, she enters the infants’
school until, at eighteen, site returns
finished from the pension. There is
absolutely no difference between the
treatment of the masses and the
classes. They sit together at school,
are taught the same subjects by the
same masters, receive the same punish
ments and the same praises. Little
cares the daughter of the millionaire if
her bosom friend is the daughter of her
own father’s coachmaa. They have
been brought up together and remain
together without let or hindrance. The
Swiss girl is never ashamed of being
seen at her work, be that work of the
most humble description.
Old Mexican Reliefs.
Some old Mexican tribes believe that
the spirit is carried to the moon by a
coal black, monkey faced owl; that up
on arriving there it is met by its thou
sands of ancestors, who come with a
long train of white donkeys; that the
spirit is then escorted to a large cav
ern in the center of the moon, where
joy reigns supreme.
Her Objection.
“You are not singing that beautiful
song, ‘I Want to Be an Angel,’ with the
rest of us,” said the teacher.
The little one shook her head.
“What’s the use of telling a story
about it?” she demanded. “I’m having

Ah, the poor tyrant: now uc wicu
her! How she had known how to bind
him with her little hands, white and
perfumed as two iilies! For nothing in
the world would he have discovered the
truth, changed into certainty his fo
menting doubt. So she had only to ask
in order to obtain, for now for him
that love of which he doubted had be
come his life, aud he felt a painful
stricture at his heart at the mere
thought that a day might come when
he would be obliged to refuse her some
thing. Yet that day came. Suddenly,
by one of those mysterious complied
tions of business, his hank, which until
then had gone from triumph to tri
umph, underwent a violent shock. Not
a uoisy downfall, one of those open,
public ruins which produce great fail
ures, but one of those deep, intimate,
secret crises that must be borne with
cut a word, a lament, under penalty of
death: tnat can be overcome only by
force of small privations, little hidden
savings. It is then that strict economy
in the family becomes necessary. The
luxury of Gemma in those moments be
came absolutely ruinous for her hus
band; he ought to have warned her,
sought to check her. He dared uot and
continued to content her, but very soon
came the time when he could do so no
more.
It was on the occasion of a great ball
to which she was to go. She had order
ed from Paris a marvelous gown that
became her to perfection. Still she was
uot satisfied. Some days before, in the
showcase of the most fashionable jew
eler of the city, a diadem had set in
revolution, all the feminine imagina
tions; a superb jewel of antique style,
set in silver gilt, of a starry pallor,
where 'the brilliants seemed drops of
flame. Gemma wished to have it, and
indeed it would he difficult to find a
face adapted to the almost religious
richness of that jewel more than her
snowy profile of an angel in ecstasy.
Ten thousand francs was the price of
that jewel, and Marchis did not have
them. Mute, immovable, his heart op
pressed, he listened to Gemma’s words
as she described it to him. How could
he tell her, how could he ever tell her,
that he had not the 10,000 francs! It
was terrible. To another woman who
should have had that caprice one might
have proposed to have her own dia
monds reset after that model or per
haps even to have an imitation diadem
made. No one would have suspected
it. But he felt that the danger lay in
confessing his powerlessness. Yet it
must he done. And he made an effort
at courage.
Gemma had seated herself beside
him, throwing back and bending a lit
tle to one side her blond head with that
irresistible feminine movement which
displays the white throat, the pure
line descending from the slender neck
to the full bloomed bust, down to the
round and flexible waist.
“I would like to have it. It seems to
me that I should look well. Don’t you
think so? I have a great wish to be
beautiful. If you knew why?”
She laughed now deliciously, with
the air of her roguish hours. He was
silent for a moment. Then, fixing a
vague look upon the delicate designs
of the oriental carpet, paling as if from
an inward wound, he murmured:
“The fact is that I do not know—I do
not really know whether—whether I
shall be able to buy it for you”—
“Why?”
She had quickly raised her head,
much surprised, uneasy, looking at
him. Such a thing had never happened
to her.
March* wiped his forehead and re
sumed Ifis discourse.
“The fact is—you see, io a bank like
ours there are moments that—certain
moments in which one cannot—in
which it is impossible.”
What was impossible for him in that
moment was to finish the phrase. He
stopped and lifted his eyes timidly to
her, desolately, as if to beg her to help
him. She was very paie, with a sud
den hardness in all her features, in her j
compressed mouth, in her knit brows, ■ ousness and irritation, sleeplessness,
in her sparkling eyes. j muscular weakness, bearing-down

The evening of the hail Marchis
knocked at the door of his wife’s dress
ing room.
“Come in.” And he entered.
In the little dressing room so illumin
ed as to seem on fire, with the air filled
with fragrance from the little unstop
pered bottle of perfume, all gleaming
white with the disorder of feminine ap
parel scattered about. Gemma stood
erect before the mirror between two
kneeling maids, ready dressed for the
ball. She was truly radiant ie her
gown of white satin with almond blos
soms, with fresh sprays of almond
flowers around the neck of the dress, at
the waist, among the waving folds of
the train. Issuing from that covering of
delicate, pale, dawn tinted flowers, she,
too, was fresh as they, with her faint
ly rosy complexion, as if she were one
of those flowers become a person. But
under her lashes gleamed anon the
Cash of cold and cruel rancor.
Her husband had not given her the
diadem.
But, hearing him enter, she turned,
and, seeing that he held a casket in his
hands, she comprehended everything.
Witli a hound she was beside him, her
arms twined around his neck.
“Oh, how good you are! How good
you are! How I love you!” He trem
bled all over and was very pale. Gem
ma did uot eveu perceive it. All at
ouce. with one of her irresistible move
ments, she loosened her arms from his
neck, took with one hand the casket,
and with the other holding her hus
band’s hand she led him after her to
the mirror. She seated herself and
opened the casket. Among puffs of red
plush, under the burning light, the
diadem sent forth sparks like a flame,
she had a new outburst of joy, took the
husband’s head between her hands,
drew it down and kissed his forehead—
oh, the forehead of a corpse, icy and
livid! Thou, without looking at his
features, his wandering gaze, she of
fered him the diadem and bent before
him her biond head, which was so well
suited to that mystical jewel.
“Come, sir, crowu me!”
And while he sought to unite with
trembling hands the clasp of the gems
among those marvelous blond curls,
waving aud breaking into ripples of
gold at every movement, she, still with
her bent head, lifted her smiling eyes
to meet his look. And he answered
with a resigned gentleness to the smile
of those perilous blue eyes, he, the poor
man who. deceived for the sake of de
sire to,be deceived aud who bought for
himself a little mock love with—mock
diamonds.—Translated For Short Sto

And her voice was as bard as her
look, a profound hardness that star

changed expression, she recovered her
fresh, tuneful laugh, and the sweet
and limpid ray was rekindled in her
blue eyes.

She really believed that she had hit
the truth with her words. Indeed he
had so well kept up the illusion with
her, he had hidden so jealously his em
barrassment, that she did not know
how to explain this sudden restriction.
But meanwhile every word of hera was
