A man Is known by tho teeth bo keeps. The worst thing thnt can hap pen to our teeth la for them not to fenvo enough to do. It la tho worst thing that can happen to us nlso. plr ItunlUcd and cultured as wo have be come, wo Btlll tight the batllo of life vlth our teeth, though wo no longer chow our enemies' ears or throats. Bono cored, enamel coated and rock ribbed ns the hills, our teeth nro Hioro absolutely under our control thnn almost any other structuro-of the body. Neglect thoiu and they decay at once. Olvo them proper nttentlon and they will go on repairing themselves for torts, fifty, sixty years. Olvo children plenty of roughening food to chew, iitul they will get the pearly vigor of the savage tooth with tho endurance of the Caucasian's. Above all, the food should bo of such a character aa to give exercise and inyisstige to the gums. Part of this can W given by plenty of coun.e food In addition to real food-not as a suhstl tut i) for It nnd part by Intentional mid vigorous friction with the toothbrush. To brush the gums well Is half the value of brushing the teeth. Keep the mouth mid gums strictly clean, mid the teeth will take euro of themselves. There nro thirty-three dis tinct mimed mid Libeled sorts of bacilli or bugs In our mouths ns normal parlor boarders, but they'll behave with per fect propriety unless you give them carrion to get drunk on.
