She held a handkerchief to her face and was evidently suffering from a severe toothache. '"1 have a very bad toothache," she said to the dentist. Want the tooth extracted ?" he asked. "Yes," she said, shuddering a bit. "Well, get bat° the chair and I will have it out in a jiffy." " But it will hurt, won't it ?" " A little perhaps." The woman held back. The dentist se- lected a couple of instrements and said again "Get into the chair." Oh !" said the woman, "this tooth does ache dreadfully, but I don't know whether ,you wifl pull it or not." " Why ?" asked the dentist in some sur- prise. "Because I haven't got any money." " Haven't got any money ?" " Not a oent." Well if your tooth' aches so badly I will pull it for nothing, then. Get into the chair." The woman shuddered a Jew times and groaned a while. Then she sat down in the chair. The dentist opened her mouth and plied about with one of his instruments,she groan- ing loudly. In a minute he touohed the sensitive tooth and the woman shrieked and jumped oet of .the chair. "Get back there," said the dentist. "No ! I won't," she replied sharply. "1 won't be tortured by you or anybody else. I think it is a shame that you will hurt your customers like that. I don't think you're much of a dentist anyhow." With that she flounced out of the office and it was a long time before the dentist could think connectedly. Graham of Claverhouse. FROM THE ST. LOUIS GLOBE-DEMOORAT. Last summer a little Sootchwoman came over to see the World's Fair, and with the thrift of her race eecured a poSition as man- ager of one of the atate buildings. One day a woman entered the parlor and stretched herself on one of the cushions. " It is against the rules to lie on these couches." "But I am tireil and want to rest." "1 wp1 bring you more cushions and make yon ac comfortable as possible, but you cannot lie down here." " Why, I am from ---," mentioning the State which the building represented ; " this place is created just for us, a,ndewhy shouldn't we be comfprtable ?" "1 can't argue that with you. I am here to enforce the rules, and must obey my in- structione." The other woman continued to protest, growing more offensive as she Was met with continued firm, though civil reaistance, and at last she played what she considered her trump card. "Madam," she exclaimed, drawing her- self up, " it is time that I let you know who I am. I am a aecond cousin of the Dukesof Argyll." • The Scotchwoman's eyes gleamed. "That settled it," she replied instantly .and de- cisively. "1 am a Graham of iClaverhouse, and between your family and mine is a feud of 500 years' standing. No Argyll tres-- passes here while a Graham is in charge." A Quadruple Husband. Men leading what are called "double lives "in great cities like New York or London are often heard of, but here is the case of a man whe lived a quadruple life for many years and no one ever suspected if until his death, which occurred,not many months ago and served to bring to light cer. taiti facts which he -had always sedulously concealed. This man was well known in the social life of thelown. It was known,too, that for along time he had been on bad terms with s his wife, and there were a few of his intimates who knew of his intimacya with a certain English actress who had gone far enough by the attractive period of life to make her l very tenacious of any good thing that fell into her hands. And this man:was certainly a "good thing" in every sense of the word, for he provided for her liberally, and told her, moreover, that he had insured his life for $15,000 in her favor. He was taken sick some time ago, and with the thought of the life insurance in her mind, the actress calmly and heroically awaited the end. He died and his family SOMETHING UNUSUAL,. as a medicine, is Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. And, because of that, there's eome- the wan- of selling thing unusual in e -es_ it.

It is not 'easy to describe her feelings when she discgvered that three other claimants had been there before her and that she must take her chances with them. The wife ehe knew about, but the other ladies .were strangers to her and I have it on good authority that the three be- reaved ones sat down together and com- pared notes with results that were surpris- ing to each. The actress had always be- lieved that he was engaged in the wholesale drug business,'bersuse he had been in the habit of going down to his office, as he said, it all Wars of the day and night—but she learned now that he had never had any occupation, except that of amueing himself, and that when she had thought him hard at work at his desk, he had been lavishing his smiles and caresses on women who lived within three or four blocks of her. One of these women she reeognized with a keen pang of rage of as being plump, pretty and fully twenty years younger than herself, while the other, although not beautiful, was refined in appearance:sand clever in conver- sation. There really was $15,000 insurance OD the man's life a-nd it is thought the true wife will surely get it, which is about the only feature of the matter which-. is as it should be.—Kans. A Ball of' the Cowboys. One night the patron gave a kali, The vaqueros all came with their girls, and a string band rendered music with a very dancy swing. I sat in a corner and observed the man who wears the big hat and who throws the rawhide as he cavorted about with his girl and the way they dug up the _dust out of the dirt floor soon put me to eoughing. "Candles shed their soft lustre —and tallow" down the back of our neck°, and the band scraped and thrummed away in a most serious manner. , One man had a harp, two had primitive fiddles and one a guitar. One old fiddler was the leader, and as he bowed his head on his instrument I could not keep my eyes off him. He had cony from Sonora,and was very, old ; he looked as though he bad had his share of a very rough life; he was never handseme as a boy, I am sure, but the weather ad starva- tion and time had blown him and crumbled him into a ruin which resembled the pre-ex- isting ape from which the races sprung. If he had never committed murder, it was for lack of opportunity; and Sonora is a long travel from Plymouth Rock. Tom Bailey, the foreman, came round to me, his eyes dancing, and his shock of hair standing up like a Ciacassian beauty's, and pointing, he said, " Thar's a woman whe'es prettier than a speckled pup; put your twine on her." Then as master of cere- monies he straightened up and sang out over the fiddles and noise "Dance that., you fellers, or you'll git the goat," In all adjoining room there was a very heavy jug of stroug-water, and thither the men repaired to pick up, so that as the night wore on their brains began to whirl after their lege, and they whooped at times in a way to put one's nerves on edge. The band scraped the harder and the dance waxed fait, the spurs olinked, and bang, bang, bang went the Winchester rifles,in the patio, while the chorus, " Viva el patron" rang about the room—the Old Guard was in action:— From an Outpost of Civilization," by Fred- eric Remington, in Harper's Magazine for December. Washing out the Stomach. During the past year, says the Scientific Acnerican, several physician° in New York have tried, with gratifying success, a novel treatment for dyspepsia and cancer of the stomach, by washing out that organ. The process is very simple and not dangerous. A long flexible pipe is passed down the throat until one end is in the stomach. The upper end has a fennel attached, into which hot water is poured until the stomach is filled. The weight af the water in the pipe and funnel gives a hydraulic pressure sufficient to distend the stomach. The pipe has an an apertnre big enough to hold a lead pen- cil. After the stomaah has been filled, the funnel eud of the pipe is turned down until it is lower than the bottom of the stomach, and the stomach is emptied as a barrel of any fluid is emptied through a siplien. The pro- cess may be repeated several times. The result is that the undigested:food and mucus are washed out, and the hot water closes the blood vessels and asdesses inflammation. The relief is immediate. The dyspeptic may have his stomach weshed out before a meal, so that he can take a fresh start. After a sufficient time for ordinary digestion the stomach may be washed out again. This process has been in use at New -York Hos• pita], we are informed, for some time. News Notes.. —Michael J.
