MINERAL SALTS RESiST
TOOTH DETERIORATION
NEW YOltK. UP) Teeth are
much less liable to dtu-ay if the
blood brings them enough min
eral salts that counteract mouth
acids from within.
- That Is a theory developed by
Dr. Charles V. IJodecker, professor-
musical saw are called Jntp oper
ation to produce the Ilyh t lilting
melodies in which the piece
abounds.
Some German critics aro Inclin
ed to think the discoverer his
toric character ts treated with too
much levity. There is no hint of
a denial or even an implied doubt
that Columbus discovered America.
Hut that was not the purpose of
Arthur Zweiniger, who wrote the
book. Tho sub-title reads "The
Prelude to a Discovery."
"Poor Columbus" Is represented
here as a rather greedy money
grabber, a boaster of no scientific
attainments. In fact he cut any
thing but a heroic figure until the
last cene when the skyscrapers of
Xew York furnish a brilliant back
ground to a grand apotheosis.
The opera, which already has
been performed In the provinces,
had a somewhat mixed reception at
Its first Berlin production at the
i municipal opera house, Charlotten
i burg, but the ayes seemed to have
1 It at '.lie finish.

Teeth which are healthy Inter-
i nally resist decay even if they rc
ceive no external care, Dr. Bo
decker says. If a way could be
found to assure the teeth enough
of the mineral salts they need
to resist mouth acids, decay would
be greatly retarded, he believes.
