Forty years ago the United States
stood sixth in point of population among
the civilized nations of the globe, and
twenty years ago it stood fifth. Twen

will not political, Social and industrial
supremacy come with pre-eminence in
population? Perhaps, but, hardly so
soon. The United Slates leads the na

natural resources. It is already first in
wealth, as well as first in the value of
the product of its farms and factories.
Undoubtedly it will eventually achieve
supremacy in the other great avenues
of human endeavor.
Within the lifetime of thousands of
Americans now living, it seems alto

questionably the great social centre of

Wanted to Pay the Debt in Pennies.
1 i’i • vurg Pr.-s«
It is related of Willard, the Washing
ton hotel man, that upon one occasion i
j some years since a man got judgment!
against him fora debt that Joe claimed
he didn’t owe. Resolving to get even
with ids persecutor, Joe scraped togeth-
, cr all tile pennies he could get hold of
and presented them in part payment of
; the debt. There were about $.490 worth
of the pennies, and it took a darkey
with a push-cart to carry them to the
creditor. Joe thought he had scored a
point ou his enemy until the latter
sprung upon him the law showing the
maximum amount for which pennies
were a legal tender to hut 25c. Joe
had to cart back the pennies and pay
the mail in genuine coin of the realm.
It is said that Joe still has the pennies,
no one being inclined to take them off
las hands.
Respectable Rascality.
Is there any such thing as respecta
ble rascality V This seems at first
glance somewhat paradoxical, but on
reflection it will be seen that there is
in modern society such a thing.
Only a few who are classed as practi
tioners under this head are ever stigma
tized with the appellation, but every
conscientious thinking man is ready to
admit that there is such a thing, and
that respectable rascality is but the
fruitage of some man who is really a
respectable rascal.
Successful rascality is always respect-
V able, and whenever the government
tig .legalizes it by any enactment she only
increases inducements, and educates
her subjects to look upon trickery and
■harp games as accomplishments, and
the man who succeeds best is the ag-
' -gresrive and worthy citizen. After
(, this state of affairs assumes respectable
proportions and becomes the ruling
sentiment of the country, backed up by
the recognized government, then the
effect is appalling. It intimidates good
people, and many who are outspoken
on all subjects, where wrong is not
ctable, are struck dumb with
ince, because of the fearful odds in
favor of what they believe to be crimi
nally wrong.
It is always questionable as to the
wisdom of legislating on any evil which
only looks to the protection of isolated
Cases. Such legislation always ends
fly finding the country with deception,
■A and in the building of a fortification
^ Of protection around respectable ras-
treation of the homestead law,

Experiments in Implanting Teeth.
New York Ht-raid.
If, as many eminent physicians assert,
the dietary and rnasticative habits of
Americans arc rapidly causing wide
spread dental degeneracy,the recent suc
cessful experiments in implanting teeth
are of national importance. Dr. Young
er, of San Francisco, has demonstra
ted that it is practicable to replace lost
teeth, even after the socket has been
filled up with bony substance. He sim
ply drills into the jaw, gouges out a new
socket, and then taking a foreign tootli
that has long been extracted, cleans it
thoroughly, soaks it in bichloride of
mercury and inserts it in the socket
thus artificially formed. Ur. Gray’s
microscopical examination shows be
yond question that the tootli so im
planted is actually revived; that circu
lation is established between the socket
and the implanted tooth, and that the
socket takes an active part in anchor
ing the tooth. Dr. G. M. Curtis, of
Syracuse, N. Y., has successfully re
peated Dr. Younger’s experiment, and
found that a tooth which he had im
planted was so firmly anchored that it
broke when he was extracting it. The
value of these experiments to afflicted
humanity can hardly be overrated.
Dentists who learn to implant teeth
will be almost as great benefactors of
the race as the discoverers of modem
anaesthetics. As good teeth are indis
pensable to healthy digestion and nu
trition of the body, the discovery of
means for replacing them when lost is
about as near an approach as we can
ever expect to the discovery of the fa
bled fountain of perpetual youth.

Why They Have Not Married.
Richmond Mime.
We sent out a few days since a not
of inquiry to a number of bachelors In j filing was want
the city, asking them to give us, confi
dentially and briefly for publication, j are claimed to
the reason why they never married.
Over one-half of them have answered,
and we give our readers some of the
causes assigned:
“Am only 45 years old. Consider
myself too young.”
“Haven’t been properly urged.”
“Some other fellow married the girl.
1 owe him a debt of gratitude. She
made it lively for him.”
“Heard that my fiancee snored, and
1 broke off the engagement,”
“My best girl had fits.”
“Came very near being married once;
T asked a girl and she said ‘no.’ ”
“The happiest man I ever saw was
one who had just been divorced.”
“1 had a friend who was married.
He sent me a book called ‘Don’t.’
“1 know a man who put in his resig-
“And so Tom has got home from col
lege, Mr. RusbeeV I understand lie is
quite a linguist?”
“He's the boss linquist,” replied the
old man, but not proudly; “he lingers
down town till 2 o’clock in the morn
ing, and lie linge/s in bed till noon, and
he lingers at the table long after every
one else has gone away foundered, and
there’s going to be a reform in this lin
guist business, or you’ll hear of a case of
felo-de-se in this family by the wearing
of a young man out with a hickory gad.”
And the old man looked resolute, then
melted into thoughtfulness, and said
that was the first Greek he had used in
forty years, since he clerked in a drug
store and studied the old masters on
bottles and jars.— Burdette.
“Aside from my passionate devotion
darling,” he said tremulously, “my fu
ture prospects in a busii.ess way are
flattering in the extreme. I have just
patented a nutmeg grater which my
trieuds all say will bring to me not
only fame but an immense fortune.”
“Mr. Sampson,” began the girl shyly,
“While I confess that I am not wholly
indifferent to you, I must have time to
think it over before 1 give to you the
wealth of my young heart’s first affec
tion.” “How long a time, dear?” he
asked. “Until we find out how the
nutmeg grater goes."
A Griffin man was creeping softly
along tiie bed-room floor on his hands
and knees, and was feeling tend, r y
under the bureau fur something he had
hidden there the evening before; but
his wife awoke and said, “Peter, what
under the heavens are you doing?”
“Dear,” said he, “1 am walking in rnv
sleep and dreaming that 1 am plucking
water lilies from the soft blue bosomoi
1 the lake.” But how to get that flask
| out of there before she got up in tin
what reallv worried him.
