Sthe Jerald and ^duertisq. Newnan, Ga., Friday, Feb. 10, 18887 Fashions in Teeth. On a .steel ring about twice as big as a key ring, which hangs on the wall in a Twenty-third street dentist's offi<^, are about ICO human teeth mounted on thin steel swivels about two inches long. A man who sat in the dentist’s office the other day, holding with both hands a tooth that lie thought was likely to jump' out of his head, it ached so had, stared at the ring and wondered if it held trophies of the doctor’s art, and if the jumping tooth would soon be added to the collec tion. The dentist in the meantime was holding an animated discussion with a fair woman patient who sat in the big chair of torture. Pretty soon lie took the ring of teetli from the wall, and the man with the jumping bi-cuspid saw him go through a maneuver that he thought ex ceedingly strange. He stood in front of his patient and, selecting a toot h from the ring, lie would hold it by the side of her face, and then look at her as though he were in some impossible way contemplat ing the effect. Then he would take an other and go through the same operation Finally he made an entry of some kind in a little book, told liis patient to come Tuesday, and hung the ring up ca the wall agfiin. When the man with the bi-cuspid had climbed out of the chair with the tierce edge of his toothache dulled a little by a big wad of savory creosote, lie asked tlie dentist what his curious operation with the castanet of teeth might mean. “It was a very simple matter,” said the •artist of the forceps and the nerve ex tractor. “I was trying to find a tooth 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 of it before. Haven’t you occasionally noticed that somebody whom you have met has a set of false teeth, and you know it perfectly well, though you can’t tell why? There is something about the appearance 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. You see some otherwise good looking woman laugh, for instance 1 -, and the first glimpse you get of her teetli strikes you as disa greeable, although they may be while, pearly and even. Did you ever guess what was the matter? “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 winos, were not of a tint to suit her complexion. I know of scores ol’ 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 com plexion would look with perfectly white teetli. The effect is the ghastliest thing you ever saw, when you come to think of it. Yet I’ll bet there are 10,000 black haired women in New York who are wearing false teetli as white as a sepul- •ehre. Then wliat would you think of a blonde with 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 sec disfigured in just that way. Think of the spectacle a rod headed woman makes when she opens her mouth to laugh and shows the teeth some blacksmith of a dentist made as yel low as a South Brooklyn ague victim! It is dreadful to all persons ot cultivated sensibilities. Dark complexioned persons should have teeth of about this shade,” showing a yellowish tinted tooth on the ring. “Bight complexioned persons should have lighter tinted teeth, lied headed persons look best with a sort ol gleaming white that is not. just a dead white, but is not at all yellow. “It’s the same way about tlie ages of 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 Fast river oysters must know that such a man has false teeth, and ill made false teeth at that. The wav we do now is to notice the complex ion" carefully, and then strike a tint that agrees with it. These teeth that you see on the ring nre made of porcelain. They are of every shade and variety of tint known to the profession. Each one is numbered. As soon as we find out the shade that is wanted for a customer we send the number to the factory, and the whole sot is made of that tint. “That’s a considerable advance in the dentists’ art, but it is small compared with some other tilings that have been accomplished since the days when false teettt. plate and all, were all carved out of a solid piece of ivory.” “When was that?" “About a century ago. There is such a sot, or, rather, two such sets, one for the upper and one for tlie lower jaw. that were made for George ashington, 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 witli them in his mouth they pried his mouth ooen and made him snore. They were very clumsv teeth, we would think, and only to be used on state occasions.”—New York Commercial Advertiser. Painters of Advertisements. Pincc the laws prohibiting defacing natural scenery were enacted the adver tising companies have cut down their regular staffs of painters to very small proportions. Before ployed gangs that were as Convenience of Natural Gas- Natural gas can be used in any coal or wood stove, grate or furnace. In a base burner, for instance, the fire pot pipe empties its discharge into a hollow iron casting, shaped like a cake or round loaf of bread. The surface of this casting is covered with small holes. After the cast ing lias been adjusted it is covered with pieces of pipe clay or brick, alighted match is put into the stove, and the thumb screw on the mixer turned. A flame at once flies up, and if tlie full channel of tlie mixer is oj>en tlie flame will attain a height or twelve or fifteen inches. This size of flame would melt a stove, and the mixer is turned.to throw a flame of about three inches. S"tich a blaze is blue and steady. Its heat is very great, and the fire clay is soon white hot, so that in look- ing'into a stove where natural gas is used the effect on the vision is that of a coal tire—tlie stove simply being full of white hot coals. In furnaces the plan is virtually the same. Tlie gas is distributed over tlie surface of the fire pot, fire clay bricks dif fuse the beat, and the temperature is reg ulated bv the thumb screw on the mixer. “Charles Egbert Craddock.” Most persons who have seen Miss Mnr- free have formed three distinct concep tions of the author of the mountaineer tales. Reading Craddock's stories before the secret of the pseudonym has been revealed the writer of them might have been easily imagined as a thoughtful, poetic natured man. A southerner with tremendous possibilities and a tremendous earnestness. A man who had lived face to face with nature and the eternal verities, to whom the brawls and strug gles of urban existence were of less mean- HOW DO WE DIO ODE GRAVES ?

The cleanliness of it is one of its most popular features, and it is always the occasion for demon strations on the part of consumers. I know a miller who carpeted his furnace room with brussels, papered the walls with entravagaut white tinted paper, and dressed his fireman in broadcloth. When all this had been done the fireman brought down an easy chair, decorated with the whitest of tidies which his ‘best girl’ had made, and he sits there all day long, dressed with the neatness of a clergyman, reading light literature and turning the thumb screw of his mixer as an occasional glance at the gauges may suggest.—Chicago Times. # Extravagance at Funerals. The worst part of the carriage extrava gance or abuse prevails among the tene ment population. Not long since I saw a funeral in one of the poorest tenement neighborhoods, and heard the boast that there were not less than sixty carriages behind the hearse. I was told, too, that at a previous funeral in the same neigh borhood the deceased had the honor of being followed to the grave by eighty car riage's, filled with mourning relatives and friends. An old woman in one of tlie shabbiest of the tenements informed me that she liad lost her only daughter not long before, “but,” she added, with a touch of pride in her voice, “she had the finest funeral ever seen in the First ward.” Hiring a carriage fora funeral is no small item to a tenement family of the average kind. The cost is from to $8, according to the distance, and there al ways are some incidentals. Now or $8 is a pretty large sum in a tenement, and the outlay of it for a carriage to attend a funeral is in many cases simply the throwing away of money that is needed at home. Too otten when the landlord or agent calls for his rent he is told: “I had to go to a funeral, sir, and there isn't a dollar in the house.” Very often, too, when the grocer asks for his bill, be is also told that the*money was spent at a funeral— possibly of a mere acquaintance or some distant"relative—and there’s nothing for him. The funeral abuse is certainly a serious one among tlie working people in New York, but how it is to be cured I do not see.—New York Cor. Detroit Free Press. Flowers for the Deatl. T want to say a word with regard to tlie offerings of flowers sent to adorn the coffin of the dead. The idea of laying fresh blossoms on tlie dead is a beautiful one, but it is overdone. People in society wince now as much at the notion of a burial as at that of a bridal, for both mean an outlay. The number of wreaths that a fashionable personage with an ex tensive circle lias to buy yearly is some thing alarming. What slaves people are to the decrees of society! Especially those people on the borderland who are afraid to drop them, ever so little, lest they should appear outsiders. Yet far more happy and respected are the outsiders of similar rank, who live as they choose, and do not fret themselves to death by en deavoring to keep up in customs and tra ditions with those fate has made higher and richer than tliemselve^ dropping com forts and pleasures within their means to grasp after impossibilities. It is piteous to see the coffin of a man smothered in expensive exotics when it is known for a fact that his whole income died with him —that he has saved nothing for his fam ily, and that henceforth his widow and children are dependent for support on the grudging allowance of relatives and friends, who, perhaps, themselves need every penny they can earn.—Clara Belle in Cincinnati Enquirer.

Old John Walton and wife—may they sit side by side through all eternity as cheery, radiant and loving as I always find them at Russell street, Portland! He is over DO years of age now, and it is a de light to listen to his tales of the days and ways when the century came in. Among his earliest and strongest recollections was a peculiar feature in the burial cere monies of the hero of Tripoli, Commodore Edward Preble, in Portland, 1807. “They liad sent out all the country over,” he relates, “for band music. No entire organization could be got. But more than 100 musicians came, sort of on their own hook. When they got here it was found that, while the town was overrun with every manner of musician and mu- sicai instrument, that there was not one dirge or march they could all play to gether, if they were to be hung for it. The funeral obsequies in every other re spect were more imposing than ever before or since, known here; music must be had whether or no; and it was finally discov ered that the musicians could all play just one composition. I don’t remember the name of it, but anyhow, it was a rol licking Irish jig; and the mournful cortege actually moved up and down the streets of Portland, and finally to the old Eastern cemetery, to louder and livelier strains of wild Irish music than ever crazed tlie heads or bedeviled the toes of lads and lassies at a Tipperary fair.”—Edgar L. Wakeman’s Letter. ' The Bathln&T Buffalo. Beef cattle are not indigenous to any portion of jungle covered Malaysia, the buffalo finding subsistence there. But the buffalo is not used for dairy purposes, and it is seldom eaten except by the poorest classes, chiefly Chinese. The meat is tough and has an unpleasant flavor. But at heavy draught, plowing, log hauling and sncii uses the buffalo is at home. He is larger and stronger than the American ox. He must have mud holes and creeks in which he can wallow and bathe. The natives make great use of him for culti vating rice. But he must be unhitched when he gets restive, for that is a sign he wants to bathe. And if the desire isn't gratified the buffalo straightway becomes dangerous. These buffalos,, the consul says, are often, in size and weight, about half way between n very large ox and an average elephant. They have ponderous and pe culiar horns, somewhat like those of the American buffalo, only much longer. They are mouse colored generally, have a very thin coaling of hair, and sometimes none at all except at the end of the tail, on the ears and on the head. This buffalo thrives best when he lias access to a pond or sluggish creek. He will take to this water, bury himself in it. up to the neck, and remain there happy and content for live or six hours a day.— Globe-Democrat.

Working the “Mind Care” Idea. I know a lady who for years, during the winter mouths, rose at night after lier husband was asleep, and noiselessly opens a window about two inches, top and bot tom. If lie knew of it he would declare it gave him cold; if he didjiot know of it he was not affected, except that lie would get up particularly bright and well and frequently remark to his wife: "You see it is all nonsense, your idea about opening tlie windows such weather as this. 1 have no headache, never felt better in my life, and if you would tell the truth you would say the same.” His wife, who always rose first, closed the window as noiselessly as she opened it, and turned on the register, had the self restraint to say nothing, knowing that argument could do no good.—Jenny June in St. Louis Republican. Pneumonia a Ptouse Disease. Dr. Seibert, a German-Ameriean physi cian in New York, a competent authority ou the subject, holds that pneumonia is a house disease and is infectious, but not contagious. He says: “In the warm air of the house the system is made sensitive to the cold, but the cold is only the pro ducing cause. It prepares the coddled lungs" for the pneumonia poison, which has its real origin in damp and dirty rooms or cellars. What is the cure? Well, the steps to the cure have unhappily ad vanced but little. But the relief and the prevention "are no medicine and plenty of fresh air.—Public Opinion. Russia’s Cold Climate. This being such an extremely cold cli mate. wood is the principal commodity, and its production affords employment for a large percentage of the people.

This disease has puzzled the physicians and still puzzles them. It is the commonest of ailments and yet the most complicated and mysterious.
