Thoroughly terrified, and convinced that Blackman could find out whatever e desired, the butcher told the whole tory. I delis you true, be said. • Trot man s a young feller, short and Vick, mit ack hair and eyes, and a Brooked se, Corsen ! the man exclaimed. Further questioning served to trengthen the impression that , the hief was Corsen. Td find and arrest rim was the next thing to be done. It was found that he generally stayed with a young' man of his ac- quaintance at a cabin thirty miles down the river from the city. An. old woman, an aunt of Corsen's crony, kept house for the.n. ' The cabin stood al the foot of one of the high, rock -crested Mississippi bluffs.'and within a stone's threw of the river -bank. Antisiiatnng trouble in 'making the arrest, - Blackman called out a few more men on his way down the river. There was another all-night ride, wearying alike to mea and horses. At the end of it, Blackman's patty, in- creased to a dozen men, dismounted and tied their horses a short distance from the cabin. It was morning, but the sun had not yet risen. A gray mist hung over the valley,shutting out distant objects. The cabin itself was seen indistinctly, and showed no signs of any stir with- in. ...-su•....... -L ` 'rli men rrounded t'",Niend Black - advanced to the door ate knock- ed.

You might as well understand; said Blackman, speaking slowly, that ybtu will be taken ; if not alive,,then dead. You need not expect my men to come in here, one at a time, for you to shoot down at you leisure. Instead of that they will set fire to the bouse,and. you will be roasted out otily'to be shot down like a dog. I But what about you ? cied Corsen, with a triumphant gleam i1 his eyes. I'll shoot you dead if then undertake that! You will do as you pleitse about that, replied Blackman. To see him one would have thought it was a mat- ter of small consequence. But the men will capture you just the same, and in that .case they might not treat you well, I can't say what they would do. . Corsen could easily guess what would he done. In imagination he saw himself dangling from a limb of the nearhsttree. The vision caused hint to waver. ' What will you do with me if I sur- render ? be asked.

Children have 20 teeth—l0 in the upper arch and 10 in the lower. Ad- ults have 82 teeth -16 in the upper arch and 16 in the lower. As the jaw and face grow .larger it is necessary for the teeth to be larger and a great, er number. A current belief is that persons, especially those of the older generation, have a double row of teeth. The facts are that the teeth, by at - triton from rnalarticalation, become worn down so that the -cutting edges of the incisor teeth present a double surface, and to the casual observer seems so.
