Colonial diaries and letters make It plain that our unfortunate ancestors Buffered mueiv from Jumping tootb- a<*ln*s, sv’jggil faces and the early Toss or forcible extraction of teeth which at a later period might have been saved to render their owners many years of further service. No wonder, since the care of the teeth was little understood, and that little often but negligently practiced. Toothpicks wore kuown; the tooth brush was not, although rough substi tutes were employed, made of flatten ed sticks, split and pounded at one end to a stiff, fibrous fringe. Toothbrushes when first introduced we»e regarded as by no means important accessories to the toilet, but rather as minor lux uries and suitable for women only. The diary of a London merchant trading to the colonies has this entry: “Bought a Toothbrush for my wife, whch, used together with salte water, very strong, and a wassbe of Herbs, she is told will keep her Teethe from falling out or getting hollowe. - The salte and Herts's may well prove strengthening to her Gummes wch. are tender, but for the brush it seemes but a silly Toy, hardly like to ware the worth of its price and scarce clean- ley save when new. But she mnst have it, being a new thing late from, France.” In the famous collection of the let ters of the Verney family, ns well, the toothbrush is referred to as “an ele^ gant trifle, now used by the ladies of Paris.” But when Sally Annls, a colonial belle, wrote of it to her sister she had, like the London merchant's wife, good hopes of its proving of more than trifling value. Her seafaring father had just brought her one, along with other gifts.. “Besides these, end ye snmlle combe, he brt. me a new mouth-brush made of eyvoryshe wrote, “the back parte inlayed very pretty with sliver: and ye brissles long and stiffc and sett very firme: wch he is assured will help me of my Tooth Akes: wch. you will guess deer Judy I do pray it may.”— Youth’s Companion. 1 A” w: FOR THE HOUSEWIFE. o Melted butter will not make a good cake.

It is caught for its oil, which is tried out in factories. Men haden fishermen use purse nets, which are tarred to preserve them. To keep their hands from sticking to the tarred nets they rub on them a freshly caught menhaden, handling it somew'hat as they would a cake of soap. So oily is the menhaden that the simple pressure thus applied is enough to bring through the scales oil sufficient for the purpose. Lawynr Fined by Judge Speer.
