work done in any and all Dental Establishments
in city or country, and is better prepared than
wother Dental oprator in the vicinity to do
ork the best adapt e d to the many and difftrent
cases that present themselves oftentimes to the
Dentist, as he understands the art of making his
own artificial teeth. and has ,facillUes for doing
the same. To those requiring under seta of
teeth he would call attention to his new kind of
work which consists of porcelain for both plate
and teeth, and forming& continuous gum. It is
more durable, more natural In appearance, and
much better adapted to the gum than any other
kind of work. Those in need of the same are
invited to call 'and examine specimens. Teeth

Warta.—A- bcientifio - writer says
that water which has stood in in oc
cupied bedroom Over night is Utterly
filthy, a deleterious poison, and nn•
fit for drinking. The water is a
powerful absorbent of 'gum, taking
in during the , , night all the poison
that is thrown off by respiration.—
The colder the weather the more im.
pare -the water will become. At or
dinary ,temperature a pail of water
will contain a pint of carbonic acid
'gas, and "several pinta o! ammonia.=
- The capacity is nearly_ doubled for
reducing the temperature of the war
ter to ice.
.
Of course the matter comes don
doubly
Serious when, a smell or close;
room is ocupied. Thse facts disclose
another of considerable importance
in domestic oconomy during this cold
weather viz : the water may beused
as an.aestorbent of trim& Planes tub
of - water in a cold cellar over night,
and in the morning the vegetables
will be found untouched' by• frost
even though she water .should' be
frozen solid. Water Is excellent as
a purifier, but people. - who l / 4 - regard
their health should be tertain` that it
is itself, pure before applying lila the
person either ezternitlly or internally,
A STORY FOR SWZARIMS.-A I gentle
man once heard it liiboiirinair
swear dreadfully in the presence of a
lair - Fiber otbis companions. He told
him it was a cowardly . thing to swear
so company. The man said he
wtis not afraid to swear it any time .
or any place.: ' - -

gentleman, "if you will, go into the
village' •ahrurch-yard. to-night at
twelve o'clock, and sweat the same
oaths iwhich you have littera here.
whenyen are alone With you 00d,"
"Agreed," saidihe. man; "ids an .
'easy way of earning ten dollars."
" Well, yen come to me tomorrow
and say you have done it.• and the
money is yours." - '
' The time passed on ; - Midnight
came. The man went to 'the , grave
yard. It was a night of pitchy dark
ness. As he entered the graveyard
note sounewateheard all *as still
as death:• ' Tnen the gentleman's
words," shine With God," cam over
' him 'with a. wonderfal' power. The
'thought .of
- the wickedness -he" had
committed,and what he _caw there
to darted through his mind lice a
flash of lightning. He. -trembled'-at
his; folly. Afraid to: take. another
step, he fell on his Irnees,,andhietead
of the dreadful oaths he had wine to
utter, the earned cry went ep---
" God be merciful tome a sinner I"
The next day he went to the ;len
tlenian in thanked him for . what he
had done, and said he . had resolved
not to Swear 'another oath as long as
he lived
