' Other engagements - have changed and varied,' but the Evening Telegraph has been constant for eiglrt een years, during which time I never missed a week, in sending my letter. It was always a vision xf mine to return one day to'my own dear city, Philadel phia, to see old friends and-old places, but, like many other aspirations in . this world, that one was destined to be unfilled, To my dear, and loyal, and firm friend, Mr. TCar burton, whose kindness to me and'mine has been Un failing and untiring, and to my many friends in ; Philadelphia, and -to 'the good people who have read my letters, and. though not acquainted with me .personally have written me kind let ters and spoken of me. kindly; to my .dear old hpmo, I say farewell.- Every one has been kind to me and mine has bena happy life, but it is ended nbw; like Tiny Tim in the 'Christmas Carol; teanonlyodU i- .t . ... , nriiTicTo iu - ntntp DENTISTRY .

A writer inn ine icmps, spoaiung or tnip, says lat he went recently to a den t$st in a , smfcll town to feet relief from $ tooth ache. iThe operator- had been highly reoommended to. him as very ' skillful. ,When he saw him, however, he recog nized him as a retired gendarme whom ho had long known. 'Where, did you learn dentMry?" he inquired. Seizing his pincers,, the. ex-gendnrme replied: ""With t,his, monsieur, .thero is no need ?of "study. It is a beautiful instrument.
