The rvculsr us of Uie tooth
brush la inwssuiry not only to re
move the -kl lnorustatkna that

to gwwp away the gvrn's of
nmny diseases. Those find the
ntvts of the twth an Meal nest
ing nlnee.. They multiply a mll
Uonfolil tu a few hours unless
washed awsy, then they go down
the tlmvat, enter the limps, the
stomach, the eustachian tuties
and the passages behind the
nose. Thorv they cause eou
sumption, diphtheria, earache,
catarrh, bronchitis, tonsillitis; In
fact. It would be ditticutt to say
with certainty what diseases
may not arise from the genus
that have grown nnn the teeth.
It ta now considered almost cer
tain that many rases of ap'Hnuli
rltls hare this as their origin.
Hence there Is no process of the
toilet so luiportnut as that of
brushing the teeth.

Tr.atm.nt of Anaamia, '
In the treatment of anaemia
there Is need for a complete
change of environment The
means to be adopted to Insure re
covery are that the patient should
live In fresh country air and
have a generous diet. Including a
little meat daily. A little Bur
gundy wine may be taken once
or twice dally at meals. The
remedy upon which reliance Is
placed by physicians Is, of
course, Iron, this being admin
istered by way of adding to the
red corpuscles of the blood an
element lu which they are de
ficient This Iron may be given
in the shape of the tincture of
perchlortde of Iron or similar
preparations to the extent of
from ten to fifteen drops twice
or thrice daily in water after
meals. Dlalyzed Iron is also
given In similar doses.
In taking any tonic which con
tains iron It must be remember
ed that Iron has a very bad ef
fect on the teeth, tending to turn
them black, and for this reason
the medicine or tonic should be
taken through a glass tube.
There is no especial diet for
anaemia, but those Buffering
from it should eat nourishing
foods, such as red meats, rare
roast beef, potatoes, peas, corn,
plenty of bread and butter and
drink milk and other fattening
substances.

Concerning Lumbago.
A very common form of back
ache Is lumbago. The sufferer
must be somewhat careful in his
nse of sweet foods, meats and
alcohol. He should also avoid
wearing damp clothing, staying
out too long in his garden dig
ging or of remaining for too long
a period In a bending or stooping
posture when planting, etc.
If he be wise he will always
wear a warm woolen undershirt
next to his skin during the win
ter season and until the warm
days of summer are in full
sway. Then he may safely don
a thinner woolen garment with
out fear of taking a nasty pain
In the back. It is far more sen
sible to take a little extra core
to avoid lumbago and other back
troubles than to be careless and,
as the result of such careless
ness, to be compelled to suffer
as so many people do.

Suggestions For Sloep.
Tbe bedroom should be well
ventilated, a window being kept
open all night, If that can be
managed without a draft playing
upon the sleeper. Where there
Is a chance of drafts ventilation
may be safely accomplished by
inserting a board six inches
broad so as to raise the lower
sash and fill the gap completely.
Air then enters between the
sashes in an upward direction
and becomes diffused In a harm
less fashion.
About his bed, bedclothes and
pillow the sufferer from Insom
nia must not dogmatize, but try
experiments. Sometimes an ex
tra high pillow does the trick.
The covering should not be ex
cessive, but the feet must be
kept warm by an eiderdown
across them, a hot bottle or bed
socks-siuee chilly extremities
are fatal to sleep. The same
latitude must be nllowcd In re
gard to supper. Sometimes no
supper is liest, sometimes a liirht
supper rather more than an hour
before retiring, sometimes a glass
of hot milk or hot gruel when
one Is uctually in bed.
A short, smart walk before
bedtime enables many folks to
slip Into dreamland. Tor oth
ers a hot footbath Is better. Still
more obstinate cases will y'eld
to the soothing effect of a com
plete hot bath, with or wlthoct
some mustard.

Cur For Quinsy.
It U stated that the Juice of
the frwh plueapple ha been
successfully used In quinsy.
When the aluresa has formed
aud the overlying tissues have
become damaged the Juice read
ily dlgcota them, opens the ab
scess without pain, obviates the
use of a surgeon's kuife aud
shortens by several hours or days
the period of misery often en
dured by the tliuid ersou who
is afraid of a surgical vra
tion. In casea where a boll hss wine
to a head and the patient Is
afraid of the knife the applica
tion of fresh pineapple pulp will
cause the tissues to dissolve and
give relief In a short time.

Care of Babiss.
Dr. William Howard Griggs of
the Children's hospital of New
York has Issued the following
list of "dont's" lu the care of ba
bies: Learn how to pick up your
baby properly and carry It right.
The mental treatment of an In
fant Is Just as Important as Its
physical treatment
Teasing has ruined tbe dispo
sition of many a child.
Don't permit everybody to fon
dle and kiss your baby.
Nothing is more Important for
the welfare of your child than
It should be happy.
Never tell your child an un
truth. Whatever you say to your child
should be enforced.
When you say "Don'tr or
"Nor to your baby mean It
Don't allow your baby to put
in Its mouth everything It picks
op.
Anger and threats have no
place In tbe discipline of a child.
Don't feed the baby every time
it cries.
You must be tbe boss, not the
baby.
Don't handle yonr baby all the
time.
Every mother should study ber
baby's own individuality.
Remember every child inherits
certain traits from its parents.
Tell your child wholesome
fairy tales.
Imagination Is a big factor In
the life of a baby.
It won't hurt the child to tell It
of Santa Claus.
That a child should have a
healthy mind is no less impor
tant than it should have a
healthy body.
It is a good sign when a child
asks questions, and the habit
should be encouraged.
To frighten a child with stories
of "the bogyman," ghosts and
hobgoblins Is very pernicious.
Treat your child in the same
way you would like to be treated.
It is dangerous to punish your
child too frequently.

Yellow-Whit Hair.
When the bair becomes yellow
and streaked In changing color
all you can do is to take as good
care of it as possible and wait
for nature to whiten it Any
bleach is ruinous to the hair,
and nothing will bleach hair
white. A little blue water used
for rinsing the hair after a sham
poo may improve the color
slightly.

Operation Not Always Needed In
Appendicitis.
Tbe best opinion now Is that
an oiierotion is not necessary in
every case of appendicitis. Jur
gens says in International Text
book of Surgery, "The dictum
that every case of appendicitis
should be operated upon as soon
as a diagnosis is made is not to
be accepted." Treves, an eminent
English authority, says: "In a
fair proportion of cases no sur
gical Interference Is called for,
aud in many of these cases much
can be done by diet, attention to
elimination and by placing the
patient under favorable condi
tions. Itenders. a well known
authority, records more than 00
per cent of recoveries from ap
pendicitis without operation."
Appendicitis should be prevented
by proper diet and exercise. The
diet that most favors nppendl
citls Is Hne, fresh white bread
and cake wltb meat. A liberal
use of Knvdered charcoal and
bran will aid materially In pre
venting it. When appendicitis Is
suspected the stomach and bow
els should be promptly evacuat
ed, followed by a fast from
twenty-four to thirty-six hours,
followed by an exclusive fruit
diet for several days. The prac
tice of removing the appendix
whenever the opportunity occurs
is nut advisable, for good au
thority holds that the appendix
has an important use.

Any time any whiskey tastes
so rough and strong it makes
you shake your head and say
bur-r"let it alone.
Never put anything into

That's why nature gave you
