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 has a dwelling, the most desirable two-story house in the place. This he enters through a trap-doorplaced in the roof and opening downward. His stove- pipe 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 hia work this' winter has been digging his way to daylight. J ust 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 he has often found it diffictilt to reach, the snow being smooth and level over the top of 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 difficulty, for while he re- mained 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 np hill, hia 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. On examining this he knew that the limb was one he had lop- ped off a tree that stood within about one hundred yard3 of his house. From this point he got his bearings, and at last reach- ed and dug his way down into his home â€" 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. When they arrived at the spot Monday they could only see a little of the pine tree. It is believed to be Bjbout sixty feet deep. The boys erf 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 hang- ing to the tree.

Our observations must show that people who do these things faithfully, have little 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 mouths as well as they ought to, for they did not know they were going to be ex- amined, and when you looked, 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 doneâ€" have it done for him Mid experience having it well rubbed m with a brush. Not much dentifrice of any kind is neededâ€" small quiU tooth-picks are best, narrow strips of rubber dam for spaces the quill will not clean. 'Water 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 nauch for preventive dentistry, which should be our highest aim.

Sir Charles Teimant's house in Oroerenor Square, says a London correspondent, is one of the most popular in London. This is ow- ing chiefly to Uie bru^tness and cleverness of his daughters. There were originally four of them, but the second, who married the Hon. Alfred Lyttelton a few years ago, died suddenly the season before last. There still remain, however. Lady Bibblesdale Mrs Graham, and Miss Margot Tennant. A more remarkable girl, even in this remark- able Age, than Miss Margot does not exist in society. Bright, clever, full of wit and " go," she is to be found wherever anything interesting is going on. Smart dance. Court functions, private view, first night â€" it is all .the same to her so long as amusing and pro- minent people are to a» met there. On the same day I have seen her hanging on Mr. Gladstone deep in conversation, and not six hours after engaged in a cosy tete-a-tete with Mr., Arthur Balfour in a quiet comer. In- deed, the Irish Secretary was staying at the Glen, one of Sir Charles' places in Scotland, not so many weeks ago, and it was even said that he was about to take the lady for his own. â€" The increase of deer in Maine the past year is reported to be due to the fact that they have been driven from Canada and La- brador by large bands of gray wolves. Discretion and good nature have always been looked npon as the distinguishing ornaments of female conversation. The wo- man whose price is above rubies has no par- ticular in the character given of her by the wise man more endearing than that she openeth her mouth with wisdom, and in her tongue is the law of kindness. " The Jingling of the Qoinea Helps the Hurt that Honor Feels." But there are deeper hurts than those that honor feels. The seeds of disease are sometimes deeply sown, the system is secret- ly and surely giving away to some deep seated malady. Especially among females are many sufiierers from infl^unmation, ulcera- tions, prolapsus, and other displacements weak back, sick headache, nervousness and kidney diseases. For all these affecticms peculiar to women no surer remedy than Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, prepared for their special benefit, can be found. It is the only medicine for women, sold by druggists, under a positive guarantee, from the manu- facturers, that it will give satisfaction in every case, or money will be refunded.
