years, but they frequently last much longer.
All full upper sets are retained by atmospheric

art. In Japan dentistry exists only as n me

practice it is not very high. It is, iu fact,

I've a great ileal to do, a great deal to do,
Don't speak to me, children, I prays
Tbesa little boja" hata muil bo blown off their heaJa
And the littlo glrla' bonnets away.
There's a great deal of dnat to bo blown In tho air,
To trouble the traveler's eye
Those frult-atalls and stands to bo thrown to the
ground,
And this tart-woman'a puddings and pics.
Thero aro bushels of applta to gather, to-day,
And oh 1 there's no end to the outs;
Over many long roads I mast traverse an ay,
And many by-lanes and short-cuts.
There arc thousands of leaves lying lazily here.
That needs must bo whirled rouud and round,
A rickety house wanta to ace me, I know,
In the most distant part of tho town.
That rich nabob's cloak must havo a good shake,
Though ha docs hold his head pretty high)
And I must not Blight Betty, who waKhes ao nice,.
And has Just hung her clothes out to dry.
Then thero aro algns to bo creaked and doors to be
slam med,
tooso window-blinds, too, bo be shaken;
When you know all tho buslnesa I must do to-diy ,
You'll aeo how much trouble I've taken,
I saw aomo ships leaving the harbor to-day,
do I'll e'en go and help them along,
And lisp tho white sails, and howl through the alirouds.
And Join in tho sailor boy's song.
Then I'll mount to the clouds, aud away they will sill
)u thi Ir gorgeous wings through tho bright sky,
I bow tu no mandate, save only to Illm
Who ro.gneth In glory on high.
Mn. Monkey and Miss Pusst. A little girl
ot sea bad two pels on board a monkey and n
cat. Sho gave tho monkey a tin plate, und
made him understand it was for his own use;
and, when dinner was ready, ho would bring it
to tho table, and hold it out to hor that sho
niicht nlnco upon it whatever sho thoncht best
suited to his taste.
As soon as served, ho would carry his dinner
to somo quiet comer, pussy nlwnys following
after with noiseless step. Placing bis plate
carefully on tho floor, Mr. Monkoy would seat
himself; and, while ho was occupied for a mo
mcnt iu arranging his tail in a graceful position,
pussy would slyly seize tho dainty morsel, and
eat it up before he knew what sho wns about.
Uu turning rouud ho would glanco at tho
empty plato, then dart at pussy, ond pressing
her head tightly against his breast with his left
hand, ns if preparing to extract a tooth, with
his right hand lie would force hor mouth open.
Then, bending forward, ho would look far down
her throat us if to discover whether his lunch
had gouo that way.
This Imppeneit quite often; for Monkey
seemed to forgot from day to day tho losses he
hod sustaincil. Yot ho was not without his re
venge. Uvory ovenlng ho took dollght in sut
prising pussy in her promenades by springing
nt her, seizing her by the tail, and ho.uiug her
over tho ship s side, where ho would swing her
backward and forward uuUl her shrieks brought
somo one to her rosouo.
After all, pussy had tho worst of it.

Boys Usiso Toiucco. A strong, sensible
writer soys u good sharp thing, und u truo one,
too, lor boys who uso tobacco: "It has utterly
spoiled und ruined thousands of boys. It tends
to the softening und weakouiug of tho bones,
nnd it greatly injures tho brain, tho spinal mar
row, and thu wholo nervous fluid, A boy who
smokes early nud frequently, or in any way
uses large quantities of tobacco, is never never
known to mako a man ot cnorgy, nnd generally
lacks muscular nnd physicnl ns woll as mental
power. Wo would p irticulorly warn boys, who
want to be anything iu tho world, to shun tobac
co as n most baneful poison."
Attention to the Old. A liitlo thoughtful
attention, how happy it uiukoa tho old. They
havo outlived most of the friends of their early
youth. How lonely their hours 1 Ofton their
pattuers iu lifo havo long tilled silent graves;
often their children they havo followed to the
tomb. They bland solitary, bending on their
siutr, waiting till the call shnll reach them.
How often they must think of nbsent, lamented
faces; of tho lovo which cherished them, ond
the tears of sympathy which fell with theirs,
now nil gouo. Why should not the young
cling around nud comfort them, cheering their
gloom with songs nud happy smiles?
All bodies get larger as they get warmer
To this rule thero is no exception amongst
gues, aud only three or four amongst liquids
and solids, uud those exceptions only occur' at
special temperftturea. A solid without anv
structure that is, haviug neither a crvstallin'e
form lior auy kind of lamination or ttbration,
or "graiu," expands the aamo fraction of its
messuremont in all directions when heated. A
sphero will remain a sphere, n cube a cube; the
hot body will bo as similar in shape to the
cold emu as a near body is to n far one. Thus
a wire a hundred luches long 8nd n hundredth
of an iuch thick, will, when heated to n certain
temperature, increase u hundredth of its thick
ness nud a hundredth in leugtb, thus increas
ing one tcn-thousandth of au inch in thicknos.,
aud ono inch in length. Instead of taking
wires of enormous leugth in order to get ap
preciable elongation, can luulUply tho ap
parent elongation by tho mechanical means of
levers, or optically. The examination of .the
expansion of liquids, is" more simple, because
they have merely to be enclosed in flasks pro
vide! with narrow tnbes. tho bores of which
may be mad; exceedingly small in comparison
with the capacity of the flasks. When such
vessels are heated, tfce glass at first expands,
and forms a flask of greater capacity, bo that
the liquid falls in'the tube. Out anon the liq
uid expands, and as, invariably, the expansion''
of a liquid is greater than that of glass for'
the sauio increase of temperature, the linnld
rises in the tube.
A cixtKNT to stot) cracks in class vessel, to
resist moisture and heat : Dissolve caeine in
cold saturated solution of borax, and with this
solution paita strips of hog's or bullock' blad
der (softened in water) on the cracks of glass,
and dry at a gentle heat; if the vessel is to lJ
heated, coat the bladder on the ontside, before
it has become quito dry, withaiute of a rather
concentrated solution of silicate of soda and
quicklime or plaster of Paris.
