Thoro nro mnny questions not connected
In any wny with tho business of tho

paper has its quota of readers who want
Information nbout nil torts of queer
things. Theso nro turned over to vnrlous
men, with regnrd to their nblllty or con
veniences for nnswerlng them. If pcoplo
who send odd queries to nowspnper offices
know tho trouble they wero making somo
poor man I think thoy would bo less frco
with their questions, often questions In
which no ono In tho wldo world Is In
terested but themsulves. It Is n sort of
rulo In nil newspaper offices that theso
oucrlca nro to bo answered, nnd n nowa-
paper docs not llko to own tip that thero
Isnuvthlmr that anybody wnnts to know
which it ennnot find out. I hnvo known
ftioportcr to spend n dnyortwo looking
about town for nn ntmwer to ono 111 tlo ques

nnd upends half a day looking up tomo
disputed point for n counlo of readers who
lmvo mado n wager, nml I hnvo seen tho
mnnnglng editor send out two or thrco
telegrams, nt his own expenso, in order to
got, and get promptly, nn nnswer to somo
question which could bo nnswerod only by
a mnn fatnlllar with tho history or poli
tics of another city or stato.
You lmvo no Idea of tho quantity of
manuscript newspaper men usually call
It "stuff, though meaning no disrespect
which comes Into n big nowspntierotlico.
Thoro nro stories nnd poems nud essays,
and all sorts of things which somebody
must read, upcclul articles written for
pay If they prova acceptable lnnttmern
bio letters or travel ami almost number
less letters from seaside nud other sum
mer resorts. So many pcoplo Imnglno
that as soon a3 they got ueross tho ocean

Ingly nnxloun to bear from them, to know
how t Iiov took a trii on such nnd such a Inko
or liver, how thoy danced nt tho casino or

hnvo seen and thought on their travels,
to tho extent of n column or more.
Usunlly thoy nro very much disappointed
when tbev discover that tbolr con
tributions hnvo becu thrown Into tho
wasto basket, but why thoy should bo Is
ono of tho mysteries of human mituro. A
great many pcoplo will save themselves
unnoynnco nnd lobsof tlmo if they will
try to understand that newspapers llko
all other things which nro tho product of
brains nud skill nnd experience must
largely bo tlio work of men who know
what to writo nnd how to wtito It, nnd
that tho chances nront least ten to ono
tlio nmnteur ennnot wrlto anything which
an editor would enro to print. Tho fact
that you nro in Europo or tho wilds of

tho editor's mind, for ho U In dally, al

that you nro in Asia or Knmschatka does

The above cut shows the teeth of a man 43

with this affection In the teeth lu various forms
nd deurecB. The ends of tho crowns seem

""H mat molar teeth aro of llttlu account,
....1 n t theru aro by default; after which all
thu force ot tlio muscles aro extended to the
front teeth, wearing them down rapidly.
The best, anil nrly remedy, Is to cover and

which wears llko steel and aves them man
