would have been satisfied had it finished thus;
but the reader started, and with look Of surprise

a strong impression existing among parents, that

! years, are all temporary milk teeth, and are
unworthy of attention, because, (they say) they
are the first set. This mistake, which has been

to correct through the public prints The first
thing would impress on the minds is, that there
are twelve teeth IN the avs that ppear but once,
and four OF them appear before the child is nine
years Of age and eight more before the child is
\ twelve, these are frequently mistaken for tempo
rary teeth consequently they neglected until
they become painful and Of course be yond preser-
walton. Hence we frequently young persons
deprived Of nearly all their molar hbefore thew
arrive al the years of maiurity.-The idea Of de-
siroying the Of such teeth, and filling them
with cement, or any other subsiance,is most shame
full quackery, and will early produce assesses
gum-bos, diseased jaws &c, especially in the
young subject. Homes, dentistry is painful
