Last evening the parlors of the Western Presbyterian Church were thronged with the members of the congregation and the numerous friends of the pastor, Rev. T. 8. Wynkoop, to bid him good bye and God speed to his destination in India, where he goes to accept the position of secretary of the North India Bible Society. The parlors of the church were handsomely decorated with flowers, ferns and potted plants. During the evening Dr. Wynkoop was remembered by his people by the presentation of several substan- tial gifts, such as a case of solid silver fruit forks from the primary depart- ment of the Sabbath school; also a pair of salt cellars and spoons from the Junior En- deavor Society, together with a book of autographs, with resolutions engraved thereon; also a purse of gold, containing a handsome sum from some of his congres: tion. The presentations were made by Miss Edith Wilner on behalf of the primary de- partment, the autograph bouk by Eldey W. H. H. Smith in his happy and pleasant manner, the purse by Col.

Tartar is deposited at an abnormal rate, and this carbonate of lime secreted from the saliva pushes the gums back from the teeth. After a while, if nothing is done to prevent, the trouble gets as far as the sockets, which become inflamed. Finslly the teeth fall out. “A well-known statesman came to me fourteen years ago with a bad case of the disease. Every tooth in his head was loose, and one of them was so far gone that I took it between my thumb and finger and quietly lifted it out. Within three months I had fixed him up so that all the rest of his dental equipment was perfectly solid in his jaws. It was accomplished suuply by removing the destructive tartar and pre- venting it from accumulating again: also with the aid of a little medicine applied to the gums. The distinguished patient of whom I speak comes to me every two or three months and undergoes a ilttle treat- ment. In that way I have been able to keep his teeth for him thus far. “It 1s a very peculiar disease. In a case co far advanced as the one I have described it can hardly be cured. That is to say, the tendency to an accumulation of tartar can- not be stopped. All that can be done is to prevent it from accumulating by scraping it away at intervals and by medicinal ap- plications to the gums. In an early stage, however, the complaint is perfectly curable and the tendency in most cases can be overcome. But muqb/care and continual ettention are required. Otherwise the per- son will have lost some of his teeth by the time he is forty years old, and after that the rest of them will go rapidly. ‘The mak- ing of false teeth has arrived at great per- fection, but at best they are poor substi- tutes. “As I have said, this may be regarded as a new disease. At all events, it is oniy in recent years that it has become prevatent. It is important that people’s attention should be called to it. From seven years to twenty care must be taken of the teeth lest they decay. There {s little danger of that after the twentieth year ts passed. But from that time on one should look out for tartar. A mouth affected in the way I speak of is almost worse than 2 badly de- cayed mouth. The trouble means certain loss of the teeth unless looked out for and treated. —__+2-____ A Happy Dream.

Rev. Frank Sewall of this city, writing in and Building News, advocating e govern- “Buildings erected by the government at immense cost, but of unworthy design, and calculated to bring ridicule on our national culture and to be a means of con- stantly depraving instead of elevating the public taste, are simply a gross abuse of the public. trust such as no enlightened nation should submit to; and yet our peo- ple have had to helplessly face such pro- ceedings more than once and to meekly pay over the money to foot the bills. The same is true of public monuments conspicuously placed, whether oa streets and parks or in the corridors of the Cap'iol. on whose merit there has been no competent judg- ment passed as to eithc: the design or the location. The people pay their money and bear the ridicule and draw a sigh of relief that the thing is no worse than it is, and at the same time are exhorted to admire the diligence and sound common sense of their legislators in Congress, who have no time to devote to such “trivial matters” as it why should the American citizen be at such disadvantage beside the Englishman, Frenchman or Ger- man, who knows that no public building or monument could be erected in any public space in ‘those countries without the ordeal of a criticism by a government which calls into exercise the best profes- sional skill the nation possesses? Is that @ genuine economy, is it even an honest dealing with the people’s money, that al- lows the vast sums appropriated for pub- for the whole country, to be under the con- trol, practically, of a single supervising ar- chitect of the treasury, the emolument of whose office is so smail that no architect of prominence in the country could afford to accept it, and yet to whose brain and those of his subordinate draughtsmen the country must look for the architectural in- vention which shall give shape to the gov- ernment buildings of half a continent? This is not a matter that our legislators are justified in neglecting on the plea that greater practical questions preclude them from giving attention to such minor de- tails. It is no minor detail with a man who is building a house for himself at a large cost to secure the very best design and location for his house, and if he is aware that his own taste and education are defective he is all the more careful, if he is @ man of wise economy, to secure theljudg- ment of @ skilled and accredited archi- tect. “On what principle of justice or economy can Congress do otherwise in the expendi- ture year after year of millions of dollars of the people’s money? And how can it administer such a vast expenditure as that which is required for public buildings of the United States without a suitable bureau or commission composed of the ablest men the country affords, who shall perform a service for the American taxpayers anal- ogous to that which the office of works and public buildings does for the English nation and the ministry of fine arts does for tne republic of France? It is not the individual private notion of a few persons here and there that sees here a great pub- lic need, such as a truly economical Con- gress, and one legislating for the real in- terests of the people ought to give serious. attention to. The creation of a commission of control has been urged upon Congress in recent years by some of our wisest and most experienced legislators. ‘The Fanction of the Bureau. “It should be borne in mind that the func- tion of this bureau would be purely admin- istrativ it would not interfere in any way with the legislation of Congress in regard to public buildings, the determining what building should be erected or at what places or at what cost; nor would it abolish the work of the office of the supervising archi- tect of the treasury, but rather embrace this as one of its chief features. It would constitute @ means of bringing out the best architectural ability of the nation through competitive designs for public buildings, of exercising @ careful and skillful supervision over all the work being carried on by the government and of preventing unworthy structures being erected and the wasting of the money of a generous people in the pur- chasing of bogus works of art. Finally such @ bureau could be made the instru- ment by Congress of securing the archi- tectural development of the city of Wash- ington upon a plan of broad magnificence, dignity and symmetry such es cannot be secured by any amount of random legisla- tion at odd intervals, giving license to the ambitious ventures of any single govern- ment employe or to spasmodic exhibitions of “economy” by some Congress bidding for votes. Such a bureau should consist, of course, of practical engineers and archi- tects as well as of men of acknowledged judgment in works of art, and these should receive pay for their services proportionate to the time and labor required for the per- formance of their respective duties. “Mention was made above of the need of such a bureau of public building as being gn urgent one at the present time. This ts im view of undertakings now in progress or lkely to be begun in the immediate fu- ture, the direction of which will very co! siderably control the aspect of the capital’ most conspicuous avenue. Besides the Con- gressional Library and the District post office, buildings “now under construction, there are bills before the present Congress for the erection of a new city hall for the District of Columbia, and of a new building for the government printing office, the largest establishment of the kind in the world. The new District post office is lo- cated on an imposing site, oceupying an entire block on the south side of Pennsyl- vania avenue at the intersection of D street. The building is to be of granite, eight stories in height, with a tower. It will stand about midway on the nation’s great thoroughfare, leading from the classic Porticoes of the Capitol at the one extremity to the grave and beautiful front of the ‘Treasury at the other. The building itself is wholly without ornament or grace, we might almost say devoid of style of any kind. Without condemning it in the least as a building suited for commercial or manufacturing purposes in a crowded busi- ness thoroughfare, one can hardly help feeling that here an opportunity has been lost for gracing our broad national avenue with » building of distinguished beauty, in harmony with the other government build- ings, and capable of lending itself to a com- prehensive architectural scheme for the adornment of the entire avenue. We do not know who {ts immediately responsible for the selection of this design, but we cannot help regarding it as somewhat singular that the style of a building of such imposing di- mensions and so conspicuously placed should be left to the choice of any single official of the government, and decided upon without any opportunity being given for the hearing of suggestions or criticism from experts of the profession, or from the ular judgment. P'lin the erection of the District office buildings now contemplated and likely soon to be begun, it is probable that another central and spacious square on the south side of the avenue will he converted into a Permanent and conspicuous architectural feature of the city. In considering the style to be adopted, will any regard be had to its combined effects with other buildings Hkely to follow, or to the possible architectural unity of the avenue as a whole? Such a unity can, of course, only be secured by the pursuance of some broad and comprehen- sive scheme which may worthily match in architectural grandeur the spiendid design which Maj. L’Enfant furafshed to Gen. Washington for the laying out of the city. Among the plans suggested for this build- ing is one which looks like a feeble tmita- tion of the War, State and Navy building, a style of architecture which whatever be its merits or demerits is sufficiently rep- resented by that extensive strusture with- out needing a duplicate. “But the main question is not what style shall be adopted for this or that building that the government may be called on to erect, but what shall be the grand total ef- ington as the capital city? “Shall there be any such final effect in view? A Question for Congress. “How can the vast sums of the people's mofiey here to be expended in government buildings be made to produce results that will compare most favorably with govern- ment architecture in the national capitals of the patriotic pride which every American should feel? “The question will arise, if not for the resent, then for some Congress soon to { Ewe of providing buildings for the now tem- porarily and poorly housed censur, edven- tion, Indian, rafiroads, geological, Jahor and other bureaus. Why should not ‘the design for these buildings enter now into suine comprehensive scheme whose realization is wholly feasible and economical. provided the scheme and its execution can be in- trusted to a permanent and efficient board or bureau, and not left to the hazard of changing administrations and occasional Political jobbing? “A series of buildings of the dimensions of the patent office alone, would, if ar- ranged continuously in a single facade in- stead of being built in a quadrangle, occupy the front of four entire squares on Penn- sylvania avenue. These, together with the squares above mentioned as already ap- Propriated and those devoted to the Botanic Gardens, would comprise a very large pro- Portion ‘of the south side of the great thoroughfare from the Capitol to the treas- ury. e reader imagine the imposing effect that might be produced under com- Petent architectural direction by such a continuous line of buildings. How many decades will pass by before the increased demands for office room and for great na- tional institutions, such as schools and con- Servatories, museums, galleries and hibra- ries, will require a similar occupation of the ‘squares on the north side of the ave- nue? Should not these be inciuded in the Prospective design for the avenue's archi- tectural completion? Not hidden from view by the narrowness and darkness that char- acterize the chief thoroughfares of the cities of the Old World, the magnificent breadth of the avenue would bring out and | display a noble range of palatial buildings such as few cities, ancient or modern, could rival. And yet the possibility of this thor- cughly feasible achievement under suitable government control is of random special legisiation and the at- sence of a permanent organization intrust- ed with the carrying out of any general scheme.” ————_+-e+______ ‘The Chinaman Tries Phonograph. From the Chicago Tribune. Did you ever see a Chinaman @ phono- graph? No? Then you have missed one of the best things this world has to offer. At the beginning the Chinaman hasn't an all-abiding confidence in the phonograph.

There was a solemn expression on his face, too, as if he was preparing to attend his own funeral. Then he got the strains of “Papa Won't Buy Me 4 Bow-Wow,” or something simi- lar, and he grinned.’ His eyes stuck out, and the proportions of the grin increased. He began nodding his head and shuffling his feet. His companions sermed to think he was going crazy. They all began talking at him at once. The head kept going in time to the music us if it were set on a pivot, and the play of his features was a whole show in itself. ‘When the alr was finished there was animated discussion among all the China- men in the party, and then each in turn tried it, each showing the same lack of Gonfidence in the beginning that the first ‘Then they moved to another phonograph and got a new tune.

From Harper's Weekly. “I had a large cork and bung factory in Grand avenue and 1 needed power to run my machinery. You know, of course, that there is an immense amount of stored up electricity In a cat. The problem for in- ventors has been to invent a way to ex- tract it profitably. In the rear of my fac- tory I constructed a one-story circular ‘building, some sixty feet in diameter. On the floor of this I cofled a giass pipe of six | inches in diameter. The first coll ran around the outside of the room, the coils gradually growing smaller till the lastin the center, was no larger than this table. It gave me something like a mile of pipe. The top and sides this pipe were lined with rather stiff hair brushes, the bristles being little more than an inch in length. “At that time Milwaukee was overrun with cats. It was imposible to sleep nights. I put a notice in the paper that I would pay 10 cents a dozen for prime cats deliver- ed at my factory. I got sixty dozen the first day and stored them in the basement of the power house. The motor operated thus: Placing in the outer end of the glass pipe an imitation rat made of rubber and propelled by a small interior storage battery, I would then adjust a cat tmme- diately behind it. Thé rubber rat would start off at a terrible rate—it was made to go through the mile of tubing in from two to three minutes—and the cat of course followed furiously, thinking to catch the supposed animal throughout the entire dis- tance. “Gentlemen, it was exciting to watch a healthy, active cat whip about those spi- rals, with the mechanical rat about a foot ahead and going like a cannon ball. The at's back and sides rubbed against brush: nd her electricity was thus extracted. With a storage battery, and by sending a cat through every five minutes, I gen- erated enough electricity to operate my entire plant, light my factory and sell power to run neighboring ele- vators and small machinery. It also took the yowl out of the cats, and gradually the city became quiet. At the end of a week a cat could be caught and used again.” The Singer of the Morgue. From the London Telegraph. ‘One of the most affable functionaries In Paris, to wit: M. Clovis Pierre, registrar at the morgue, is about to retire from his mournful office after many years’ service. Notwithstanding the lugubrious surround- ings in which he has lived during a long period, M. Pierre has always been noted, not only for his urbanity toward unfortu- nate people who periodically make ingul- ries at the morgue for missing relatives, but also for his gayety of heart and his tal- ent as a humorous versifier. A fervent ad- mirer of old Beranger, the registrar of the morgue has composed over 30) songs, some of which have become as popular as those of the late McNab, one of the bards of the Chat Noir, who during his lifetime was a clerk in the post office. Among the most entertaining of the ballads by “Abel Ce- pak,” M. Pierre's nom de guerre. are “The | Englishman at the Morgue,” “The Morgue Pigeons,” “The Identification,” “The Abuse of Water,” and “My House.” In the last mentionei ditty the author describes the city dead house in a vein of Molieresque humor, which is intelligible only to those who know Paris well. During his tenure of office at the morgue M. Pierre made a Uttle garden outside his rooms. It is full of pea blossoms and flowers. The seeds of the peas were found in the pocket of a dead person fished out of the river. The tiring registrar is about to devote his proaching leisure time to further lyrical production, and many amusing songs and ballads may accordingly be expected from his fertile pen. ————_ce+____ An Unselfish Proposition.

Dr. Cari Peters in the October Forum. I desire to say that I do not belivee that the time will ever come when, as Dr. Herts- ka pretends, a thickly gettled European population will live in the savannahs and among the mountains of Central Africa, but I do think that in time not far remote Africa will be honeyeombed, ag all points and places fit for them, with European settlements.
