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 ty years hence it will stand first. And will not political, Social and industrial supremacy come with pre-eminence in population? Perhaps, but, hardly so soon. The United Slates leads the na tions in extent, value and variety of 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 gether safe to predict, the United States will be completely and un questionably the great social centre of the world as it is already the centre and creator of much of thlxt which most powerfully contributes to the world’s moral and material advancement. make you a good husband.” 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, iarious other method's of protect- mpposed subjects of pecuniar} as, have become schools of grade, from which come iium- full-tledgcd rascals annually.

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. ii t.and ft 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. w H M > O M ft CD STEAM ENGINES.
