Replacing Teeth.
A correspondent writes, describing ft sled accident, by whioh a ten year old girl had two front upper teeth knocked out. She was taken to & dentist, who replaced the teeth and strapped up h^r jaw. For two days abe could scarcely apeak, no solid food waa allowed, but the operation was successful, and the teeth are as firmly set as ever. Thej are a little chipped, but later on, when it is safe to work on them, they can be patched with gold and be about as gcod as ever.
A young man blackened hia moustache with a lead comb and then took hia girl out for ft moonlight stroll. When the fair op* appeared in tho bright light of the family circle, a cjuple of hourd later, her face looked like ft railroad map.— Lowell Courier.
