BOWSER AT DENTISTS I • 1 Wife TeRsjrf Case of Toothache 1 and How It Was Relieved. HEAD OF HOUSE A SCOFFER. u. Until Ha Had Troubla With His Molars and Had to Saak Madical , Halp In Ordar to Rslisvs Hie Buffsrinom. 1 I Copyright. 1J08. by T. C. McCTur®.] I had been suffering with toothache for a couple of days before Mr. Bowser became aware of the fact. Knowing bow be woul'd "perform." 1 dliVni.v best to conceal tbe matter, bnt after having suffered soch pain all night that 1 could not close my eyes In sleep 1 had to teU, him that I must pay a visit to the dentist "Oh. you must g6 to the dentist, eh?" queried. "Been out wading In a mud puddle in your bare feet! Well, what did you expect?" "You know I have done nothing of the kind, Mr. Bowser. In going to the 6hop the other day I forgot my rubbers and probably got my feet a little damp." "A little damp ! You probably got /em soaking wet! That's like a woman— tq her rubbers and go strolling about In a shower. By thunder, Mrs. Bowser, but how you have managed to as long as you have beats me!" "But Isn't everybody liable to have toothache'?" I asked. "No. ma'am, everybody isn't. For In-

•T.EKWHIZ! rEMIMl !" stance, I never bad It (n my whole life. I

Only people without brains enough to ( take care of themselves have such all- 1 meats. Well, don't look for any sympa- 1 thy from me. On the contrary, J hope 4 the dentist will gouge and file and 1 probe and hart as much as he can. No 1 use crying around about It, but get on t your hat and go through with It" 1 "Do you think he'll have to pull It?" 1 "Of course, and It will hurt like I biases." "And you won't stay and go with I me?" "I'd like to see myself!" "But may I telephone yon about a noon ?" 1 "No, ma'ain, you mayn't. If the den- < tlst pulls your bead off. I shall find It a out when I get home, and that will be time enough. No woman that forgets her rubbers when it's raining cats and dogs deserves any sympathy. If you 1 are crying around this evening, don't 1 expect me to put myself out In the f least. Forgot your rubbers! Humph!" ' With that he was gone, and I took j ' my sorrowful way to the dentist He j 1 found a cavity and had It plugged with I 1 cotton batting in ten minutes, and the ! * ache soon disappeared. When Mr j 1 Bowser came home at night 1 had quite j * recovered my spirits. 1 started to tell him all about the enre. but he waved : bis band and interrupted: ! .' "1 don't want to hear about it. It won't tie over a week before you will j 1 be sitting on a chunk of lee or dolf-j j I some other silly thing and have to a ■ 1 I through with it again. \ mau loam- | by experience: a woman must liavi i 1 head." ' 4 Mr. Bowser's words may look brutal in cold print, but I know that he didn't really mean them that way. I didn't hope for revenge, but It came to tue ■ Jusl tbe? same, and only a night or two later. He bad been out fussing with I the dm in In the back yard and got his | feet damp. Two hours later as we sat | i reading he gave a sudden start and i j carried his band to his jaw. J "Did you bite jour tongue?" I asked, j "Why don't you ask If I have bitten I my big toe?" he demanded. i ! "But you gave such a sudden start." | I "Can't a man give 6Udden starts in | bis own bouse if he wants to?" She Smelted Camphor, j Then he slipped upstairs and was | gone ten minutes, and when he came . down I studied camphor on his breath j I snspected then thai one of his teeth i I bad glveu him a twist. He sat down | and tried to get very busy with the i : newsiiaper. but after about five lain utes ho was fairly lifted out of his ' chair and almost uttered a warwhoop. | "Mr Bowser, have you sat down on "Gee whiz! .letuliuy "' he groaned. - with uis hand pressing hls jaw: , "You've got the ®o:linohr'" "I-I deny it.*" "You went out In that wet yard r-. d ] worked at th:it ojd drain v Itiiou: v ' rubbers on. ami t otbache is the rtsv.l* That's tbe way with a man.

fioer. It w bo on to try t» dbeelva any longer. 1 had to lead him over to _ the lounge and' assist him to lie down, and by that time his v groans sounded < Mke> bona In Its dying agonies. Dur- k Ing tbe next half hour— He asked for camphor, ne asked for peppermint. 3 He asked for wintergreen. He asked for arnica. He wanted hot salt He wanted hot ashes. "Well, yon are In for it." 1 said as . none of tbe remedies did any good- "If J had had your rubbers an, yon seeBat yon didn't have. "You Just went sloshing out there and never thought of tbe in. If you live until morning yon will have to go to the dcntlsfa." < "But HI live, Wont ir be asked In . , a pitiful vote*. e "Possibly, but when the toothache | selnr- n man like you that's never had [ It liefu-v It goeh hard with him. Have , you any:!:!::? on your conscience thai "• yo.t w!-!i to confess, Mr. Bowser?" "Ca.:rc->-lo-j be hanged!" he roared , as he drew" up his legs. "Mrs. Bowser. i can you stand by and see me suffer the way 1 do and not move a finger?" "You'll have to do as I did, dear. I-et 1 , me see your tooth." , "Never! Never In this world!" ; "Well, you'll have to-6tand It aouu | way uutll morning. I think It's an o!.: j root and will have to be dug out." lito the digging down Into your Jaw won't hurt much. Even If It hurts ever r- ' bad you won't bother me about It. 1 have my work to do and can't bqtbei ~ with a husband careless enouglTYt leave bis rubbers behimL" s From thence until bedtime Mr. Bow ser groaned. Now%and then be cursed. New%and men tie curseo.

Once 1 can::'--: lil:u repeating some thing like the Lord's Prayer. Did Not Sloop a Wink. Once also the "Jumps" left him fo: '■ about two minutes, and lie was begin nlng to get chesty when they came back and almost twisted his face ' around to the- back of his ueck. Not a wink did .either one of us aleep that night. Nothing 1 could try had any beneficial effect. When morn lng came at last I suggested a call upon the dentist without loss of time, but Mr. Bowser groaned out: "Never! If I am to die. it will be right here?" Two hours later be said be would go If I would go with him. but it was two more before I got him out of the bouse. Then lie wanted to walk around the block and to go back home and wall an hour longer and to put it off till next week. If a gang of boys hadn't followed us. grinning and chuckling, he would surely have got away from me. He was finally landed In the dentist's chair, ahd by my holding both hands and calling him honey and dear be was induced to open liU mouth. The dentist said it was s nothing and then seized a double tooth in his forceps and yanked it out Bowser's yells continued for three minutes and then died away, and In ten we were homeward bound. He was quiet and humble until we entered the bouse, and then be turned to uir with: "Mrs. Bowser, let this be an object to you." "What do you mean 7" "Why. If ever you have the tooth ache again don't suffer a minute. Walk right to a dentist and have it out and over with and without any fusa, as I did." M. QUAD now Menry Irving Wantea to uic. "What have I got out of It?" suL I stroking his chin and smlli iv slightly. "Let me see. Well, a g<»«: cigar, a good glass ot wine. e«nmI Here he kissed my hand with courtesy. Always be was so ! courteous— always his actions, like j this li: He one of kissing my hand, were | so Iteautifully timed. They came just i before the spoken words and gave ' them peculiar value, i "That's not a bad summing up of 1! all." I said. "And the end— how would you like that to come?" I "How would I like that to come?" | He repeated my question lightly, .vet I meditatively too. Then he was silent i for some thirty seconds before he snap. I pod his lincers— the action again lie j fore the words. ] "Like tliu. .'" - Ellen Terry In 1Clure's Magazine. Microbes. "Speaking of the ark." be said.
