Store Teeth by the Million
"The man or woman who is much troiia
bled over the necessity of having an artln
flolal tooth Inserted , " said a popular denv
list the other day , "may take consolation
from the fact that there are about twenty
millions of such tooth manufactured anil
sold annually In the United States , allowing
on an average one artificial tooth every four
'cars ' to each man , woman and child in the
ountry , Including Indians , negroes and
ramps.
"On the authority of the greatest manufacturer -
ufacturer of dental supplies in the country ,
hero are over forty thousand ounces of
iure gold worked up annually for dentists'e
use In material for filling teeth , In plates
and solders , the value of this gold approxi
mating one million of dollars. In addition
hero are about 60,000 ounces of platinum
used annually by the various manufac-
urors of porcelain teeth , to eay nothing
of the largo amount of silver amalgum
> rcpared. for Inconspicuous fillings , such
as fchoso In the Iback tooth.
"There Is no other profession which has
made greater strides during the last few
years than has dentistry , and the number
of practitioners has steadily Increased until
now there are 20,422 dentists In the United
States. Even the llttlo towns of Alaska
lave their dentists , there , helng nine en-
.aged in practice In the territory.
"As figures do not He , the majority of
these men cannot have very much to do ,
because 20,000,000 of falso. teeth and $1,000-
000-worth of gold for fillings , etc. , divided
equally between 20,422 dentists allows only
about 100 teeth and a ijttlo less than $40
worth' of sold per annum to each dentist.
As the population practitioners In large
cities use many times these amounts , many
of them earning from $8,000 to $15,000 ft
year In the practice of .their profession , Jt
will readily bo seen ithat a good many of
the smaller ones must fall * ar below the annual -
nual average.-
New ThtnKS In Bentlstry ,
The use of electricity has worked wonders -
*
ders in dentistry. TJntll the , discovery of
the X-raysJtwas often necessary to remove - -
move a .tooth , ln order to ! learn ) the nature
of some' trouble , at "the .root ; but now the
root and a portion of the Jawbone- may ) be
[ > hotographed by means ' . .ofthe Roentgen
rays , the cause of the trouble [ located .and
the tooth generally saved ; . . - . _
"The average person , ( however , , 'considers
"
Ibo discovery of what Is called" 'dental
oataphoresis' to bo of , far. greater im-
pprtanco to ithem personally , because- KB
unprecedented power to deaden pain.
"Cataphorcsls , " continued the doctor , -"Is
the process of driving anaestnetlcs Into
thV'bono .tissue , or dentine , by means of
a gentle current of electricity applied to
the cavity itself. The method Is ra.ther lnr
teresting. The cavity Isfirst , cleansed as
thoroughly as possible without , causing1 discomfort -
comfort to the patient , and is then closed
with.a plug of cotton Just largo enough
to flil It without .undue pressure at any
point The electrode is'placed In the moistened -
ened hand of the patient , who is required
to grip It Just tight enough to secure good
connection , the anaesthetic to bo used is
drawn Into the barrel of the syringe and
Injected Into the cotton. The current Is
then turned on and gradually Increased
till the proper amount Is reached" . It complete -
plete Insulation Is secured , " 'tho process is
not accompanied .by sensation of any kindi
and the subsequent drilling which' la , nee-
essary In order to cleanse the cavity prjor to .
filling It can bo * done with no appreciable
degree of pain. "Without , the aid of cat-
nphoresls , bo'weyer , there Is no such thing
as good workmanship In painless dentistry.
"But tho-new 'cataphoric bleaching * Is
even more appreciated by women. The
bleaching fluid Is driven Into the tooth by
means of'a current of electricity Itf a way
similar to that In which an anaesthetic Is
driven into sensitive dentine. Even a
tooth that has become , yery-muc'h ' discolored
as 'a result of thp improper .treatment of
a dead neryo may be rendered beautifully
white byr fhls means. Jfl fact , electricity .
Is now used by the , up-to-daUj dentist , for
nearly everything connected , with .his. . work.

Old. Method * Shelved.
"The dentist of twenty-five or even ten. i
years ago , who had not kept abreast .of t
the times' , would hardly know what to >
'make of UIQ many Improvements _ In. the >
modern practitioner's operating room. The
Iterlllzer , for Instance , Into , which every
Instrument ta placed after being used , > s
now considered as neceesary a , part of the
cfflca ' furniture as the' treadle "or the 'hy-
d'raullo chair , ' The certainty .that every
Instrument put Into the mouth .baa been
thoroughly sterilized since being previously
used means a great deal to a sensitive
patient.
"Another special horror baa been done
away with through the Invention of the
dental speculum and the "drainage tube.
The former protects the lips from abrasion ,
while the latter , when placed under the
tongue , taken up and carries away the
troublesomn 'drool , ' which under the old
fashioned system of dentistry was the cause
of such aversion to fastidious men and
women.
"If dentistry Improves proportionately
during the next fifty yeara as it bas dur
ing the last decade , by the middle of the
twentieth century women will look upon
a visit tothe depttet with BO greater dread
than is now inspired by the proapeci of
a Bhoppleg tour , It Is probable , too , that
artificial teeth will become more and more
natural every year. Even now the bluish
white teeth so common a few years ago
nro seldom soon , and the porcelain 'fillings
which are dally growing in popularity are
eo identical In tint and appearance with
the : teeth of which they form a "part that
their presence can hardly be detected. Their
preparation and Insertion , however , require
considerable skill. They are generally first
shaped to the cavity , then baked , glazed aud
carefully Inserted. The superior beauty of
; these : flll"Ei ) over the conspicuous gold
ones Is apparent to the people most con
servative In adopting new ideas. "
Connubialities
Three months after a girl gets'married
her husband knows -the secrets of most of
.
her intlmato girl friends.
As long as married pcopfo read aloud
to each other every evening they are still
in 1 love.
Little do the loving couples who plight
their troths while occupying single seats
dream that they are forming a chair trust.

there became , enamored 'o.f the proprietress. '
to whom ho afterward proposed marriage.
In course of conversation , however , ho
found out .ho was making love to his own
sister , and this , of course , prevented their5
marriage.
The wedding of Miss Julia Dent Grant ,
the only daughter of General and Mrs. Fred
erick Dent Grant , to Prince Cantacuzeno of
Russia , Is announced to take place In Newport -

Poor Railroads in Guba
When one wishes to leavo.Havana ; by rail
to I see something of the real Cuba say , to ,
tako'a 1 trip to Pinar del nio or to .Cienfuegos
he must get up 'very early , writes a.corre ;
spondent i of Harper's Weekly , The through
trains I leayo at 0 o'clock in the morning. I
asked i the chief engineer of the railroad to
Pinar 1 del nto why so early a sta'rt was made
for : a , town only 100 miles away and ho. said
It \ was so as to got bactetbe same day.
The American traveler Is not only likely
to grumble when he Is compelled to hurry
to the station In the thick gloom of the
morning ; , but when he reaches the station
and flads that he must pay about 5 cents a
mile In gold and from 7 to 8 cents a.mllo In
Spanish , silver to ride In the back-breaking
cars known as first-class carriages and that
for a"n ordinary trunk be must pay about
half fare , ho Is Inclined to scoff at the prlra-
Ulve mode of travel and to long for the
luxury of even stage-coach journeyluge on a
western mountain road. The amazing
amount of computation by the ticket ageni
before be sells you a ticket , the smoky lamps
the three preliminary toolings by the engine
before tbo-train starts , the final ringing o
a bell by the baggage master as a signal tfoat
the train Is really gqlng , the crowded 9ondl-
tion of the aisles , choked with luggage , for
which the passengers do not care to pay
toll , and every raan in the train , from $ he
conductor to the barefooted brakeman , smok
ing tobacco of varying degrees of excellence
all this Is likely to worry the American
traveler used to the luxury of Pulfraan cars
A few hard Jolts soon after the train leavsa
the station bring up to the imagination the
prospect of a miserable trip and one acllnec
at the very outset to rail at the crudities o
travel by cars In the Island of O.ba ,
