Robert Bridges the new British poet
laureate is a fastidious critic and
hence sees little to admire in the com-
monplace verse of Alfred Noyes
Noyes once brought to Mr Bridges
two very long odes that he proposed
to submit to the English Review
"I’ll read them both aloud” the
young man said "and afterwards you
will tell me which Is In your opinion
the more likely to be accepted by the
English Review”
Poor Mr Bridges sighed and settled
himself In his chair and Noyes in his
loud harsh voice read the first ode
It was very long and at its conclusion
Mr Bridges leaped to his feet and
said briskly:
"Now my young friend I can ad-
vise yon Send the other ode to the

Mexico City Oct 20— Provisional
President Huerta has not resigned nor
has he fled from the capital When
seen at the national palace at 5 o’clock
tbla afternoon he said he had no In-
tention of doing either
“When I resign” said General
Huerta "it will be to seek a resting
place six feet in the soil When I
flee the capital it will be to shoulder
a rifle and take my place In the ranks
to fight the rebels”
This was President Huerta’s answer
to queries as to whether there was
any foundation for the reports which
have freely circulated in the capital
and found their way to the United
States
General Huerta looked the picture
of health and energy Attired in a
new dark sack suit he greeted the
Associated Press correspondent with
extreme cordiality motioned him to a
seat asked for a cigarette and listen-
ed to the explanation of the motive
for the visit
"So It is reported I have fled” said
the president "You can see for your-
self that D am at my post To say
that I have resigned or intend to re-
sign is an absolute falsehood 1 have
no intention of resigning
"Should the elections which will be
held as I have promised indicate an-
other for the presidency I shall step
aside Until that time you will find
me here complying with my promises
to the nation which are to re-
establish peace"
President Huerta Interspersed his
talk with anecdotes illustrating his
points
“Another thing” said the president
"I have money for my requirements
Don’t think that I haven’t Where did
I get it? My secret” he responded
tapping his chest with a satisfied
smile "But I have It’1
On the question of pacification he
declared that before the end of the
month the government would have re-
taken Torreon and made headway to-
ward the pacification of the state of

First False Teeth
Until little more than a century ago
humanity had to rub along without
false teeth of which nowadays one
firm alone claims to sell over 12000-
000 a year One of the first successful
makers was Glusaepangelo Fonzl an
Italian dentist who began practice In
Paris In 1798 and thanks to his skill-
ful treatment of Lucten ' Bonaparte
soon made hla way After years of ex-
periment he discovered the substance
from which artificial teeth are made
and received the gold medal of the
French Academy of Science One of
the earliest persons fitted with false
teeth was the empress of Russia After
Waterloo Fonzl migrated to London
and then to Madrid where Ferdinand
VII rewarded him with a yearly pen-
sion of a thousand ducats for a set of
false teeth
