Bleeding gums nr* one o f til* *lgns o f scurvy, a dreadful dis­ ease. of which, happily, we hear less now thnn I d the days when meu had to take long voyagas on sailing ships and ronld not get fresh food. Mild cases o f It are found among children who have tiecn fed on condensed milk ouly. As soon as the*»» children nro given a |>roper diet with fresh milk the gums cease to bleed and grow hard again Many other constitutional dis­ order* besides scurvy cause bleeding gums, but most cases are owing to local conditions and need to be treated by the dentist rather than by the doctor. If your gums bleed because you have discarded a soft tooth brush for a stiff one yop can re­ lieve the trouble by a mouth wash o f salt and water or by putting u little myrrh In the wa­ ter. If. nevertheless, the gums contlnnt^to bleed visit the dentist at once, for spongy gum* soon cause loose teeth In many cases he will find suppuration round the socket* o f the teeth or tie tween them. It is possible for that to he the case, although the teeth them selves show no sign of disease. It can even hap|ieti to the most cleanly people, for the brush, even when conscientiously used, will not reach the affected spot. If neglected the condition is sure to lead to trouble, because the patient constantly swallows the poisons that are formed, to the detriment o f his dlviwtlon nnd hi* general health.
