Sir Charles Tennant‘s house in Grosvenor Square, says a London correspondent, is one of the most popular in London. This is ow- ing chiefly to the bri 'htness and cleverness of his daughters. ' ‘liere were originally four of them, but the second, who married the Hon. Alfred Lyttelton a few yezus ago. died suddenly the season before last. still remain, however, Lady Ribblesdale Mrs Graham, and Miss Margot Teunant.

It I happen to be looking down the street when Mr. llowser getsoifthc car I can tell whether he has a headache or not. He comes slumping along, arms hanging down, “'ant to let the typhoid \Vhat‘s eves on the sidewalk, and as I open the door , fdr him he growls out : " Lemme git on to that lounge as soon as possible." "\Vhy, what’s the matter '1" “I'm next door to death !" “Have you been hurt, Mr. liOWSCI' “No. (lot a headache. \Vhole top of my head is loose.

I’ll have three doctors tip after tea and have the am- biilance come. at the same time." Then Mr. llowser sheds tears and I go and heat a brick for his feet, tie a towel around his head, send 'baby upstairs and stop the clock so that nothing may annoy him. I don‘t suppose that onohnsbaud in abun- dred sets out to find fault around the house. It’s just thoir way, you know. They are boss and they feel that they must keep this fact dilly impressed on the minds of their wives. No husband is ever to blame for any acci'd- out about the house. The wife always is. For instance, a water pipe down in the basement burst the other day. Mr. Bowser at home just as I was about to telephone im. “Pipe busted l Who busted it?" he shout- ed, as he pulled off his overcoat. “Why, no one.” “Yes, they did ! \Vatcr pipes don't. bust without help !

That‘s the w.iy-â€"tlie minute I leave the house something ha pens. Now we shall have a plumber arouin here for a week or more with a bill of forty or fifty dollars.” The back kitchen door had to be taken off its hinges and planed off a little and in re- hanging it Mr. llowser got in a. hurry and 01th int one screw in the lower hinge. The cook ound thc other! nndflaid them aside. One day, after he. had got home to dinner the door fell Mkew, as might have been ex- pet-ted. “ Now, what have you done ‘2" shouted Mr. llowscr to me as the cook came in and reported. “ l-â€"-l didn't break the. door." “ You didn't.

SHOW IN THE SIERRAS. A Hermit Living Forty Feet Beneath The Surfaceâ€"A Lost Cabin. HarryHartley,who is wintering at Meadow Lake, writes that the snow in that brightest gem of the high Sierras is forty feet deep on the level. He constitutes the whole and sole population of the once famous town, and has about him whole streets of houses that are inhabited by nothing except the ghost of dead hopes. He hasa dwelling, the most desirable twostory house in the place. This he enters through a trap-door placed in the i‘qu and opening downward. His stove- pipc stands fifteen feet higher than the top of the roof, yet snow has this winter been over the top of it. He has from the trap door in his roof an incline in the snow. in which steps are cut, that lead up to the general surface of our planet. This he frequently finds filled with snow of mornings on letting down his trap door. A principal part of his work this‘ winter has been digging his way to daylight. d tist in the rear of his residence is a three- story building which he uses as a workshop. In the beginning of winter he entered this by a door on the ground floor ; later he reached it through a window leading in from the balcony of the second story, and finally he was obliged to use as a door, the upper- most window in the third story ; even this l he has often found it difficult- to reach, the i snow being smooth and level over the top of i l the house. On one occasion this winter Mr. Hartley ascended to the surface, mounted his snow shoes, and glided down the mountain to the Fordyce dam in search of mail matter. He was only a few minutes in going a distance of three or four miles down a hill ; but to return was the difliculty, for while he re- niained waiting for dinner a furious snow- storm had come up. He started for home in the midst of the storm. In the light snow and going up hill, his snow shoes were of little use. In the blinding storm he lost his way, and was for several hours wallowing in the snow. At last he ran his head against the sharp end of the branch of a. pine. 0n examining this he knew that the limb was one he had lop- ped off a tree that stood within about one hundred yards of his house. From this point he got his bearings, and at last reach- ed and dug his way down into his homeâ€"«a house beneath a level plain of snow forty feet in depth. ' A couple of the owners of the Butte Saddle mine went up there last week to see if every- thing was all right. They did not take a shovel with them to dig in the snow for the cabin, because they had before any snow fell tied a shovel thirty feet higher than the cabin to a pine tree, in order that they might have it in case. they had to go up to the mine during the winter. \Vhen they arrived at the spot Monday they could only see a little of the pine tree. It is believed to be about sixty feet deep. ‘ The boys of course came back to town without finding out whether their cabin was under the snow or not. but they think that it will turn up all right in the spring, with the shovel bang- ing to the tree. ' » Cleaning the Teeth. Dentists are daily committing the error of not instructing their patients in regard to the proper methods of cleansing their mouths â€"-brnshing, picking, rinsing with warm water after meals and at night before going to bed. Our observations must show that people who do these things faithfully, have ittle or no dentistry to do. It is astonish- ing what ignorance exists among people of all classes and conditions, as to what clean- ness of the mouth means. They will tell you frankly that they do not brush their months as well as they might to, for they did not know they were oing to be ex. amined, and when you lodlted, you really thought so, and the second thought was probably not for a month. Cleanly hab- its are part of an individual's education and can be formed only in childhood. Too much care can not be bestowed on the object for the little ones. Each individual must see it thoroughly dotieâ€"diavc it done for him and experience having it well rubbed in with a brush. Not much dentifrice of any kind is neededâ€"small quill tooth-picks are best, narrow strips of rubber dam for spaces the quill will not clean. \Vuter used frequent- ly for rinsing. with a. motion of the tongue on the surfaces of the teeth and gums, lingual, palatal, labial and buccal. So much for prcvctitivc dentistry. which should be our highest aim. _â€"â€"â€"-â€".â€"â€"â€"-â€"â€" 'I'lic \Vaterous Engine \Vorks (‘0. of llmnt~ ford have just completed for Duncan McCor- iimck of Montreal. at i'assclniaii, Uni” one of the most complete saw mills in Eastern Ontario.
