All the theories that time and again have
been advanced in answer 10 This inquiry,
have long since vanished before the true doc
trine of ,heac'ior of external corrosive agents.
The great and all-powerful de,royer of the
human teeth is acid, vegeiableIand mineral,
and il matters not whether 'he acid is formed
in The mouth by the decomposilion OF parti-
cies of food left between and around the teeth,
or whethef il is applied directly 10 the organs
themselves; the result is the same, the en-
ameli dissolved, corroded, and The tooth de-
stroyed. Much, very much of ,he decay in
teeth may be attfibuied 10 .he corrosive ef-
fecls Of ascelic acid, which is not only 10
common use as condimeni in the form OF
vinegar, but is generated by the decay and
decomposition Of any and every variety OF
vegetable matter. When we consider how
very few persons, comparatively, lake espe.
cial pains to remove every particle OF food
from between and around their teeth imme-
diaiely after eating, can we wonder that dis
eased teeth are 90 common, and that their
early loss is 50 frequently dsplcreds

"There can be no offence more narrowing

pursues the shrinking guilty soul through all

that soul escapes 10 its God. But who would

/ Recent observations have forced me to the

AT this season of the year (as well as for
some months previously when these forms Of
disease most prevail, the Usual diet of all
classes of persons CONSISTS chiefly Of fruits
and vegetables This, though the best
adapted to preserve health in the hot months
of SUMMER, is not suitable for maintaining
the greatest degree of physical vigor in the
cooler and more changable months of au:
tumn; and hence when the cool nights and
hot SUNS of this season severely try our
physical resistance, we are found wanting !;
the blood is too thin, it contains too little of
the carbonaceous element; vital heat (life)
is not generated In sufficient quantities to
maintain the requisite temperature and
| equilibrium in the circulation /; therefore we
have chills, levers, sweats, pains, and physic
too, and sometimes poisons also, and after all
scarcely ever get right again, until steady
cool weather, and the absence of the copi-
GUS supply of vegetables and fruit, and the
use of more generous animal diet do the
| work for u.s. eS
If these views are correct, let the people
live on fruit and vegetable diet during the
hot weather, but when September comes
let abundant supplies Of beef, mutton, chick
en-, game, ham, eggs, etc, take the place Of
the fruit and fatinaceous and you may bid
defiance to agues, and we believe, to au-
tuninal fevers generally. Debility resulting
