It was a long story, all about a Memo
rial Day parade which Tommy had seen
last year; and an none of tlvese village
school children had ever Been a Memo
rial Day parade, you can Imagine how
pleased they were to beta this Interesting,
though noisy account.
Tommy had told tlm nil about the

"Pretty good," aTiswored little Charlie

Sure enough, Tanimy hadn't thought of

went and looked over the wnll which di

So the next dny, which was Memorial

They did not speak and the younger

him to break, the'sllence. Ills eye hap

"My lord," Bald he, turning to the
bishop, "were you ever in Botany

a look of severe displeasure. "Eat your
soup, sir!" thundered the old gentle
man; "eat your soup!" And then it oc
curred to Hamilton that the bishop
thought he was asking whether he had
ever leeu "transported," for at that
time Botnnx Bay was where desperate
criminals were sent.

It Is but a little thing, yet on Its

teeth should be so rotten, is a question
which has' often - been" 'deMted, and
probably thfetrfy? ahswef ignore com
plex than some would think. Many
'good mothers are content "t(f put all
toothache down to lolly pop9 ; but that

bad teeth :l proved by the splendid
"Ivories'' often possessal by negroes,
who : practically live upon the sugar

that for long to come the- tooth brush

those minute accumulations can be re

mischief. A few elementary lessons

would show them the futility of trust

If people, instead of looking at the
tooth brush from an esthetic point of
view and scrublug away with tooth
powders (!) to make their front teeth
white, would regard It merely as an aid
to cleanliness, they would see that the
time to use It Is after meals and at
night, not Just In the morning only,
when the debris left from the day be

acid all night through. They would
also see how Inefficient an instrument
the common tooth brush is unless it is
used with considerable Judgment. One
of the secondary advantages of spend

Is that at least one learns the value of
one's teeth. By the time we have got
them dotted over with gold stoppings
and gold crowns we learn to take care
of them, even although that may in
