T ART OF DENTISTRY. Waa Practiced by tha A Thousands of Ysars Ago. ' It will surprise many persons to learn that false teeth, gold caps and fillings and dental bridges are by no means modern creations. Six thousand years'" ago 1 and probably long before the dawn of Greek civ ilisation the- skill of the dentist had reached a high degree of perfection. Cicero in his treatise "De Natura Deorum" ascribes the invention of tooth drawing to Aesculapius, third Of that name. The first mention of dentistry, according to the British Medical Journal, is found in Hip pocrates, who in several parts .of Lis writinga has a good deal to say abou toothache. From the Phoe nicians the art found its way to the Etruscans. At the international congress held in Borne in 1900 Pro fessor Guerini exhibited several pecimens of dental art which prov ed that something very much akin t bridge work was practiced in an cient Italy so efficiently that it has locked thirty centuries. Artificial crowns have also been found in Etruscan tombs. Artifi cial dentures go back to a remote antiquity. Dr. Deneffe states that In the museum of the University of Ghent there is a 6et of artificial teeth found in a tomb at Orvieto with jewels and Etruscan vases. He S'ves their date as from five to six ousand years before Christ. In a collection of antique surgical apparatus made by Dr. Lambros there is an artificial denture found in a tomb at Tanagra, near Thebes, which is believed to belong to the third or fourth century before the Christian era. Teeth stopped with gold have been found in Greek tombs. In the temple of Apollo at Delphi there was, according to Era eistratus, a nephew of Aristotle and physician to Seleucus 'Xicator, king of Syria, 354 B. C, a leaden instru ment which was used in the extrac tion, of teeth. Obviously an instru ment of lead could have lsen used only for loose teeth. In the laws of the twelve tables made by the Roman decemvirs in 450 B. 0. it was expressly forbidden to bury or burn gold with dead bod ies except when used for "wiring the teeth. In the construction of false teeth recourse was had by the an cients to bone and horn. Some times human teeth were employed. Benzoni found in some mummies artificial teeth made of sycamore. In the first century of our era false teeth were very common among the Romans. Dentistry shared in the decay of the arts during the middle ages, nd we read that when St. Louis died in 1270, although he was only fifty-five, he had but one tooth in the upper jaw. French surgeons, notably Ambrbise Pare, took a lead ing part in the revival of dentistry. Louis XIV.'s dentist used only in struments of gold in operating on the teeth of his august patient. From the time of Pare onward the highest dentistry was in the hands of surgeons, extraction being left to barbers and quacks. Bank of England Notes. When a Bank of England note re turns to the bank it is never re issued, says Tit-Bits. It is canceled by having the signature of the chief cashier torn off. A day's signatures thus detached often amount to a weight of twenty pounds, so some idea may be gathered of the enor mous quantity of notes dealt with in a day's business. After the sig natures are torn off the notes are pricked off in the register and sort ed into the dates of issue. They are than placed in boxes in the vaults, where they are kept for five years, after which they are burned in a furnace placed in a courtyard. Every morning at 7 o'clock this fire is lighted, and the notes which were received at the bank five years pre viously are consigned to the flames, 420,000 notes being consumed in this manner every week. j Fine Taste In Word. Dinah came in to ask her mis tress to write a letter. Name and address being furnished, Mrs. Ross waited for dictation, which was not forthcoming. Dinah, being, urged, insisted that she didn't care what went in the letter, "she jes' wanted a letter writ to him." "But," said Mrs. Ross, "you must tell me something to say." "Well," answered Dinah after a long pause, "I alius did think 'nev ertheless' was a mighty pretty word." New York Times. When He Couldn't Sleep. The lecturer on health had fin ished his discourse and invited his auditors to ask any questions1 they chose concerning points that might eeem to need clearing up when a lean, skinny man rose up and asked : "Professor, what do you do when you can't sleep at night V I usually stay . awake," replied the lecturer, "although, of course, very one should f el t liberty to do otherwise if he choosus. Are there any other questions 7 mwm, NOTES BY CflBAENITZ sxvnsna PA. COBKK5PONDC4CE SOLICITED WHERE ARE THE TURKEYST Yes, where are the big red headed turkey gobblers that spread their tails, displayed their crimson cravats and posed and strutted on tbe fence at the old wagon shed? 1 A few years ago as we drove through the country we gazed on flocks of giant bronze and Hollands, white as snow, gathered round the big barn, roosting in the trees and gazing and gobbling from the fences and the yards. Today we may drive for miles through fertile farm lands, we may go from farm to farm "when the frost is on the pumpkin and the corn Is in the Bhock," and never hear the gobble of the strutting turkey cock. THE FARMER TELLS TJS WHY. "Yes," says he, "we used to raise a smart lot of turkeys round here. "The weasels, minks and hawks got soirie, but these all fired smart town chips got to huntin round our fields and timber and shoottn our turkeys and takin' 'em home, and passin' 'em off for wild turkeys, and we got tired of it and quit "Then," continued the farmer, "it brought on so 'much scrappin'." ' Well, of course," we innocently re plied, "turkey toms will scrap, and AS IT USES TO BE. especially at breeding time, when half a dozen go to courting one old hen." "Young man," said he, "yon don't catch my meanin'. There was folks round here who never set a turkey egg, and yet when the fall roundup come they had more turkeys than all the folks for five miles around. These folks was always complataln' 'bout the foxes ketchin' their turkeys, and all the time it was the two legged foxes. "Well, we had a whole lot of law suits, and it ended with the lawyers gettin the turkeys that the other foxes didn't get, and Maria and the rest of us, Jest worn out by these scrappin's, let the turkey business go. "Another thing against turkey rais in,' continued the farmer "help is scarce. "We can't keep our boys and girls on the farm any more. These newspa pers are blowin' round that the farm er' havin a good, easy time of it be cause there are self binders and hay forks and hay loaders and manure spreaders and windmills. They have us all Bittin' In rockln' chairs, cutrin coupons and smokin' quarter cigars." As if to give emphasis to what fol lows, the farmer shook the ashes from his cob pipe and said: "I want to-teli you, young man, there are some wind mills in these editor offices, and they're run by hot air too. What do these kid gloved city chaps who sit behind glass doors and drink champagne, know about farmin'? "Yes, I know they are teliin' us how to do it "BUI West tried one of their pre scriptions on his old gray for the wind colic, and that horse just up and died tbe next day. He went into town the next week to see the editor, and they told him the editor was away lookin after his fences. "What do city editors know about fences and farmin', anyhow? "Well, one day a paper came here, and at the top it read, 'Go west, young man, and grow up with the country ' "That night my boy John skipped, out, and the rest followed, and now Maria and me are left alone, and we cp n't do all the farm work, let alone foolin' with turkeys." "But," we asked, "can't you get help?" "Hardly," he replied, ."and the fel lows you do get are lazy, good for nothin'. "It used to be, when the children were home, we all took a hand with the work. John had the horses, Bill slopped the pigs, Mary had the chick ens, Dave had the cows; Jennie, the 1 oldest had the turkeys, Sallie had the butter,' and Maria and me took a hand wih al of them. "But now," said the farmer as he wiped a tear from his eye, "they're ail gone, and mother and me are left alone to shift tor ourselves, anTturkey raisin' is out of the question. To explain this turkey panic there's Wtbixic nor i want to mmj." mM Katobygxven.ttheTiew tW flu-mer -and tkaf a bot black Tpnted by ordinance No. H3 of the tbe tanner, -anu xmmvm mown oi atyof corvalli , to view 'he aawer or- .

" "But," mused the honest old farmer, "the turkey days on the farms are over, and the time's a-comln. when all the turkeys will be hatched and raised In machines and be done up in tin cans and be sold In grocery stores, like oth er. canned goods." , CHICKEN FEATHER MILLINERY, Some of our lady friends who still wear feathers In their hats in defiance of the Audubon society will not hold their heads so high when they learn that many of the swell millinery estab. lishments have a large and Increasing trade with . some of . our big poultry plants. We have seen many a sickle feather adorning a thirty dollar hat, and many a blackbird perched on a belle's bonnet Is simply a cushion stuffed with Black Minorca feathers, while often a church choir prima donna has kept : time to her solo with a plume plucked from a Japanese bantam cock. Vhe Seabright bantams, the Sliver Spangled and Golden Penciled Ham burgs, the Gold and Silver Polish, the Houdans, the Games,- the Andalu sians, the Leghorns, the pheasants, the pigeons, the ducks and the geese, af ford ail variety of color and furnish materials for fads and fancies to glad den any debutante's heart. Indeed, the day is coming when the fastidious fashionable will run chicken millinery plants of her own or compel her better half to breed stock that will bring only feathers that are in style. And, as the styles often change over night, the poultryman will be at his wits' end to keep up with the' proces sion. That will be a sad day for the poul try business, for only the poultrymen who can control the styles or get tips from headquarters will have success, while the rest will be hung up in the garret with the old bonnets, cloaks and hoopskirts that are out of date. . FEATHERS AND EGGSHELLS. Turkeys are thick as grasshoppers in Texas. The Lone Star State has shipped 10,000,000 pounds of turkey this season. That's a nice bunch of money for the rangers who have tak en the blue ribbon for turkey produc tion. Go to Texas if you wish to get the "know how." When the authorities of the Dan ville (Pa.) Insane : asylum advertised for 1,000 pounds of live turkey only one reply was received fromHhe home county. Center county filled the con tract All the turkeys 'were nine pounds or over at 18 cents per pound. It takes 8,600 pounds of turkey for the Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner at this institution. "When the cat's aw-lfy the mice will play" in that patent dry feed hopper which 1 warranted to hop. ' Whether It brings a big crop of eggs we know not, but it certainly is an automatic sure hatch mouse incubator. Have you heard the news from Mis souri? Her last annual report shows a poultry product of $40,000,000. Her hens laid 107,155,658 dozens of eggs, worth $ 16,000,000. Missouri heads the band. The great American hen has knocked out the great Missouri mule. How phall I get fresh eggs? Fresh eggs are composed of good strains, good pains, good brains and good grains. Mix these well in a "scientific manner, and you will have eggs to bum. Every time a hen cackles she does not layV any more than every-time you speak you say something that will make you famous. The hen tells a lie to get some feed and drink that you have neglected to give her. We will forgive hei but we can't forgive you unless you do better. In distributing gifts of poultry don't forget the poor preacher. If you do, then that good joke that is one of the traditions of the fathers will die out However, let us quietly remind you that the Baptist preachers prefer wa terfowl. ' - When your hens get the roup, be sure to call the neighbors in. They will surely tell you what you ought not to do. After you have filled them up with red pepper, castor oil, axle grease, pat ent poultry feeds and bug juice, top off with liniment. Liniment will cure any-, thing from a corn to a cracked smoke pipe. It's the great American panacea. If these all fail, call in the family phy sician. "The early bird catches the worm" bas Its exceptions. You will not get early winter eggs if you snooze all morning. The best hens lay early. If you feed a fifteen minute mash at 8 or 9 o'clock, your best hen will be on the nest and will get left If she gets Vert, you get left Do you prepare your birds for the shows? Let conscience and the stand ard guide you. These people who cut off extra points, pull out feathers and dye wing flights here . may get blue ribbons in this world,' but the devil will get them- in the next ' win ne nirectiv nenefited nv such sewer arid to estimate trie Tjrorornonate share of Citv -f Conmllis, and the prooertv ascer tained and determined bv said viewer to be directly benefited bv said sewer anil the extent and proportion of such benefit isasfo'lows: , - Block iTo r, Original Town of Marys- viile, now citv of Corvallis: Lot Lot Lot No No No No 1 l-?6th 2 T-?fith 3T.7fith -4 l-6th 5 I-.Vth 6 i-?6th 7 T-3tb 8 i-fifh . 9 T-?6th IO T-I7th of total of total of ftn1 of total of total of total of total of total of total of total of total of total cost sewer cost sewer cost sewer cost sewer cost aewer cost sewer cost sewer cost sewer cost sewer cost sewer cost sewer cost sewer Lot Lot No Lot No Lot No Lot No Lot No Lot No Lot No it 1 -36th Lot.
