When to Clean tug Teeth. Ot all tho people who clean their teeth regularly, It is certain that a very large proportion only do so once n day, and that generally at tho time of their morning ablutions. A much smaller number also do so at letiring, but the number of thoso who make a practice of regularly brushing their teetli after oat- ng, tho most Important time of all, is in. deed very small. It is while eating that all little cavities or Insterstlces between tho teeth become the repositories of fragments of food, or Iraccs of some acid in thu food uro left on the teeth, to cause incipient de cay, and hasten It where it lias already commenced. It is ot course desirable to brush the teeth on rising In thn morning and before retiring at night, but it is ot in finite more importance that they 6hould bo thoroughly cleansed after eating.

Wallek, Jr. Mar 13 3w An exchange says that under the laws of Pennsylvania bakers cannot by law collect a bill for the sale of bread ; that all bread shall bo sold by the pound ; that bread scales shall be kept on the counter or in somo conspicuous place In nil bakeries: that unless tho bread be weighed the sale Is illegal nnd the seller liable to a fine of ten dollars and costs for each offense, and that half of this sum shall go to the in former. This law was passed lu 1707, and has never been repealed. Wn believe it to bo a dead letter, however, mid Its enforcement would be a greater inconvenience to tho buyer than to the baker, as It would stop tho running of bread wagons, and compel all purehaseis to go to the bakery to buy bread. There are many laws on the stat uto books that ought never to have been passed, and which might as well be re pealed, us they are not, and ought not to be, enforced.

The Hazlcton Sentintl In referring to tho Hazleton Edison Elcctilc Illuminating Company of Hint city thus remarks ("Many of the principal business houses and nianu factories have been wired and nro now using tho electric light exclusively, while many new customers have been added weekly. Tho supeilority of the incundes cent elcctilc light, over nil other menus of Illumination, is apparent to the most cas ual observer.

There Is absolutely no danger of tiro from use ot the light, for the Instant the pear shaped glass nlobe In which the light bums Is broken the air rushing In do stroys tho vacuum that Is essential to the existence of the light, tints of course Inline dlntely extinguishing the light itself. This fact alone would render it the light pai er cellence to use in factories, hotels, opera houses, and all other largo buildings par ticularly exposed to danger from lire." Ammonia is cheaper than soap nud cleans anything that it touches. A few diops in a kettle that is hard to clean makes grouse nnd stickiness fade away and rolis tho work of all Its terrors. Let it stand ten minutes before attempting lo scrape off and every comer will be clean. It cleans thu sink and penetrates into the drain pipe. Spots nnd linger marks on paint disappear under its meglcnl influence, nud it is equally effective on tho floor and oilcloth, t tough it must bo used with care ou the latter or it will injure the polish There is nothing lo equal it in cleaning sit verwaro, nud it gives a hlghur polish and keeps longer than anything else.

Ebitohs: Sirs: During the inclemency of the win ter, and temporary suspension of out-door work In consequence thereof, there Is am pie lime for observation and relleci'.lnn, and to witness the doings of tho world nmong the affairs of men. In nil business transac tions there enter two csssntlal factors, 1. c, cash and credit. Many a man has built up a fortune from the latter alone. And all who have thus succcded, have become our foremost und most prominent men, both as to character mid Integrity. It Is true that good opportunities are great helps in the path of success. But many fail to avail themselves of good opportunities, couse queutly become financial wrecks. And It oftentimes happens that In their failures they involve many others so as to render them fluanclal cripples for life. Many well-to-do men have been induced to en dorse, or to become bondsmen on ball bonds und notes, lu default of which have lost their all through negligence, or dishon esty of tlio parties favored. Thcne is u motto some udopts "Get money or prop erty honestly, if possible, dishonestly if necessary " In other words, "get it, get It If you can ; If you can't, get It anyhow." It Bcems absolutely necessary that men should have credit, without which many could never succeed ut all, and any man may succeed without serious defaults If he will preserve Ids Integrity nnd manhood, except, however, In case of accident, loss or reverses, circumstances over which he has no control. From past experience lu business transactions lu which so many do. luulted, or failed, seriously Injuring many others who were bound with them In their obligations, it Is a little doubtful whether eo nuny Joint notes und other joint obllga Hons will be effected lu tho near future umong Individuals as there were In the long past, Muuy look upon tho defaulting scheme, either us of criminal negligence, or of willful robbery In other words, lawful robbery. A man should never attempt to engage In nu enterprise without lirst nscer. tiilnlug his abilities to meet ull thu demands upon reasonable stipulations. And In case disinterested parties become bound with him lu his fluanclal obligations It is his boundeii duty, In honor, to secure Ids bondsman from loss, cost or trouble. The muu who borrows another's credit and falls to return or preservo It, deserves to be treated as un outlaw. As it rule there are but tow meu who havo a surplus of fuml to sacrltlcu In such u manner, us to allow the persons for whom they are financially bound to squander and lavish us fancy may dictate, and then bust" und lot ttiocred- J itor whistle.

There's nothing on earth so mysterious. ly funny ns a newspaper advertisement. The prime, first, last and nil the time ob ject of an advertisement Is to draw custom. It Is not, was not, nnd never will be de signed for nny other human purpose. So the merchant waits till tho busy season comes, uud Ids store Is so full of customers that ho can't get Ids hat off, aud then ho rushes to the newspapers nnd puts lu his advertisement. When the dull season gets along, und there Is no trade, nnd he wants to sell goods so bad Hint he can't pay bis rent, ho takes out his advertisement. That Is, somo of them do, but occasionally a level-headed merchant puts lu a bigger one nnd scoops all tho business, while his neighbors nro making mottgages to pay the gas bill. Theio nro times when you couldn't stop people from buying every, thing in the store if you planted a cannon behind the door, and that's the time the ad vertisement is sent out on its holy mission. It makes light work for tho ndvertisement, for n chalk mark on the sidewalk could do ull that wns needed nnd havo a half holi day six days In the week, but who wants to favor un ndvcrtUement? They uro built to do hard work, and should be sent out In the dull days when a customer has to bo knocked down with hard facts nnd kicked insensible with bankrupt reductions und dragged in with irresistible slaughter of prices before ho will spend a cent. That's tho aim and end of an ndvertise ment and if you ever open a store don't try to get them to como when Ihey aru al ready sticking out of the windows, but give them your ndvertisement right be tween the two eyes in the dull season, and you will wax rich nnd own a lust noise, and perhaps bo able to smoke a good clgnr onco or twice a year. Write this down where you'll fall over it every day. The time to draw business is when you want business, and not when you havo more business than you can attend to already. Hentoii.
