GOOD TEETH VITAL
TO HEALTH.
(From State Board of Health.)
The importance of the care of the
teeth needs no argument. A well
cared for mouth and aet of teeth are
a mark of well being, refinement and
character. Bad teeth are an unnec
essary evil. Tooth decay Is perhaps
the most common of al) diseases to
which man is heir. Tooth decay
sooner or later causes toothache, but
toothache is only a fore-shadow of
what is likely to result if the tooth
is not properly treated by a dentist.
Toothache is the danger signal but
it is frequently sounded too late to
enable the dentist to save the tooth.
We used to think that toothache, the
good, old-fashioned, "jumping tooth
ache," was the worst punishment any
one could receive for the crime of de
cayed teeth. Now we know that poi
son from bad teeth and gums has
a far reaching effect in stomach dis
orders, rheumatism, heart trouble
and a number of other disorders
which cause ill health and disease in
almost every part of the body. It
is cheaper, less painful and better for
the health to go to a dentist, twice
a year, and have the teeth kept in
good condition all the time instead
of going only when one decays or
aches.
The teeth are living, sensitive
tlructures, lying in sockets which re
seirhie a bony joint. Strong teeth
and a healthy body have a much
greater power of resisting decay than
otherwise. Teeth need exercise by
eating the right kind of food in the
proper way. A soft pulpy diet weak
ens the teeth and invites trouble.
Tooth decay is often an expression
of general malnutrition and is fre
quently associated with enlarged ton
sils, adenoids and other signs of dis
ease or degeneration. It is probable
that sound, vigorous teeth have a
definite power of resistance and it Is

now believed that structural changes
within the teeth render them suscep
tible to outside influence. The teeth
ar dependent on the general nutri
tion of the body. A well balanced
diet, rich in vita mine, including
whole grain, fresh dairy products,
and green vegetables is one of the
best preventatives against tooth de
cay. The most frequent cause of
tooth decay is unclean teeth and
mouth. The teeth almost always de
cay from without as a result of acid
formed by bacterial fermentation.
The common explanation is that cal
cium is disolved by lactic acid form
ed by the fermentation of food in con
tact with the teeth. Cleanliness
helps avoid the immediate causes of
decay.
For the cleanliness of the teeth we
can well content ourselves with a
tooth brush, some silk floss and clean
water. While it is preferable to
brush the teeth the last thing before
retiring, the first thing on arising
and immediately after each meal,
many persons find it inconvenient to
brush the teeth more than twice a
day. A good method of brushing is
known as the rolling stroke method.
To brush the teeth and gums with
this method, place the toothbrush
(ends of the bristles up for the upper
teeth) between the cheek and the
gums; turn the brush toward the
gums, sweeping the bristles down
over the gums and teeth to the cut
ting edge of the teeth. Reverse for
the lower teeth and brush up. This
motion brushes the cheek side of ail
teeth and the tongue side of the
back teeth. Brush the inside of the
front teeth by putting the brush,

bristles up, on tbe roof of the mouth
for the upper teeth and on the floor
of the mouth for the lower teeth, and
polling the brush outwards over the
gums and teeth. Brush the grinding
surfaces of the teeth with an in-and-out
and side-to-side stroke of the
brush, fiinse the brush in clean w
ir frequently while brushing the
teeth. !
The advice of the dentist should be 1
rought as to the condition of the !
teeth especially as to whether there
is any decay or destruction of enam
el. Periodic examination and clean
ing by the dentist are the only safe
means. Prevention is greater than
cure.

REGULARITY
The secret of successful saving is
regularity.
Any person who will adopt a
method of saving a regular sum at
regular intervals if only a dollar a
week, will create the habit of saving.
To save, when the habit is once
acquired is as natural as breathing,
and the final reward is financial independence.
