Roosevelt's, Pershing's
And Billy Sunday's Teeth
During the world war period,
when we needed men like Theo
dore Roosevelt more than anything
in the world, his teeth killed him.
General John J. Pershing led an
army selected from American
manhood, from which over five
million had been rejected as unfit.
When the war was over he became
an important factor in diplomatic
s -vice and when the discussion;
,ta De,8ht ln ch,U tne notedj
uncral was ordered home for
lental treatment.
The Rev. Billy Sunday, the most
talked of evangelist, finds too

common thing as an Infected

fighters outfought by an absolute
ly preventable thing. Ironic, isn't
This little incident serves to il
lustrate the important part that
teeth play in the general health.
They are not. as some people con
sider them, a collection of minia
ture mah long tiles set in the
mouth for chewing purposes only.
Nor are they made primarily for
adding to one's good looks
They are connected with the
rest of thf body and Ihir health
will affect the general well being
of the individual.
These r.ipn were world cham
pions in their line, supposedly in
perfect condition -yet they have
been stopped In the prime of their
life from a preventive cause of
disease.
Here were strong men pre
sumably !n better physical condi
tion than you and I cut off from
their share of the world s Joys tv
n abscessed tooth. If it could
attack these men, the ailment is
serious enough to be prevented by
the average person who is soft
from lack of exercise and hasn't
the full amount of resistance to
disease that he should have.
Danjrer Conies From Abscess
Before a tooth can get into a
dangerous condition of this kind
it must become abscessed. This
abscess results from the decay of
the pulp which becomes infected
a condition brought about at the
start throngh a small opening in
the tooth where decay begins from
the outside of the tooth and eats
its way inward like a worm bur
rowing its way to the center of an
apple.
As the enamel and dentine back
of it are slowly destroyed, the
opening gets larger and larger,
until It reaches the pulp of the
tooth. It takes but a few months
for a tooth to decay to the point
where the pulp is reached.
At this point, there is the first
sign of trouble. A shriek for
hlp is fftven by the stricken tooth
In vhe form of a toothache. Most
people are only interested in stop
ping the shrieking pain instead of
getting at the cause of it. This
ache Is a sign that inflammation

end of the tooth.
When the toothache first comec
on. the tooth feels "too large."
for it is shoved out of its norma'
position In the pocket by the in
flammation around the tooth.
When the teeth are closed, it
causes pain because It is the first
tooth to touch the opposite side

surface a few dys after the tooth

increased the size and the pus col
lects and heads toward the mouth
or the outside of the face.
The pus enters fh- blood stream
and floats around In the body.
TIdie it has ideal living conditions.
Tt may stop at anv of our vital
organs heart, kidnev. liaer oY

diseases caused by these abscesser
Ht various points of the body, such
;ih rheumatism, head aches, back

ear trouble, nervousness, tired
feeling, and a great many other
.Jlmenfs.
This was the propible type of
abscesses that afflicted those
JT. Jirong men for they had an ab
C,!-",wed tooth that resulted ln
"loou poisoning, Lowered pnys-
al resistance following an over
exertion might have hurried the
case along to its fatal results
but it was neglect that caused the
final crisis.
Insuring Against Such Trouble
Periodic examination and treat
ment by a dentist will ordinarily
discover and take care of decay
before it causes an exposure of the
pulp. The real lesson to be learned
from the death of such strong men
is not so much to fear an ab
scessed tooth as to fear neglect
which may cause it. and the real
ixation that further neglect of that
tooth may cause even death. A
regular examination of the mouth
is therefore much like taking out

important Influence.
"Some of the anatomical modi
fications which were tried out dur
ing geologic time proved more
successful than others. As a re
sult, old species continually dis
appeared and new ones took their
places." No traces of hind legs
have been found ln living toothed
whales, although they appear, ln
undeveloped form, in the skeleton
of one found in Egypt which died
at least 3,000.000 years ago, and
are present today In the structure
of whalebone whales, burled deep
in the flesh of the hip region. The
bones, muscles, blood vessels and
nerves of the forelegs have been
overlaid with blubber, forming
flippers to enable the whale to
ascend, descend, or turn, while
powerful horizontal flukes have
been developed at the end of the
tale to provide a means of pro
pulsion. A blanket layer of fat affords
protection against water tempera
tures much lower than those of
the whale's body, which Is only
a few degrees cooler than human
blood heat.
To keep water from entering
the lungs while swimming with
open mouth or feeding, the nasal
pascsages, instead of leading into
the throat, as ' in land animals,
connect directly with the wind
pipe. The nostrils have been
pushed back from the snout to
the highest point of the head, the
first point to rise above the sur
face, and are equipped with pock
