ed with arsenical paste, and the crown
removed with cutting perhaps. There
is not half the pain in this operation as
there is in extraction. A tooth set in
this way, Is called a Pivot Tooth, and is
very durable if the root is good upon
which it is fastened. They often last,
from ten to twenty years. In the older
States people are much more careful TO
preserve their teeth than in this new
country. There are thousands here who
neglect having their teeth plugged when
necessary, consequently they soon ache,
and the nearest physician extracts them.
After while feeling the loss Of the tooth
to be greater than anticipated, the per-
son at last resorts to the Dentist, and
finds that his best opportunity is lost for
ever The tooth must now be set upon
a plate adapted to the mouth, costing two
or three times AS much as it would have
done if pivoted TO the natural root.

Hints on the Teeth.

The operation of Pivoting or Engraft-
ing, is much more common at the East
than in Iowa. This is partly owing 10
Ignorance, and partly the result of the
characteristic recklessness of Western
pSople. The operation consists in fast
ening an artificial crown upon the natur.

Sanitary Efforts.

BANKS, writes to his wife as follows. rel

the Aid Societies. Ii will be seen that
he earnestly urges continuation oil the
efforts in that direction
The Sanitary institution is one of the best
things connected with the army, and | know
from my own observation, and from the tcsti.
mony of men that can be trusted, had it not
been for the supply of sanitary goods that was
then on hand. many, during the seige of
Nicksburg, would have suffered greatly, aud
the per cent. of deaths would have been much
Increased. So far us my own knowledge cx
tends, have drawn from the sanitary com
mission many things in fact, all that | want
ed for the comfort Of the sick and wounded
both in clothing, bedding and the diet suitable
to the feeble aprettes of the sick.
Ny field Of observation has been somewhat
extended and must say have seen utlittle
of the sanitary goods used but for the object
intended, but see every day the good effect
produced by the products of Aid Societies.
would say to the ladies of Independence
through y0H, not to forget the soldiers. Your
efforts have done much good and have made the
couch Of the dying soldier easier, and have
been the means Of lcssn.ng the suffcrings of the
afflicted, not only by the comforts sent, but hy
SO doing you remind the soldiers that they

Sanitary Convention.

E An earnest call has been issue
by very large number of Ladies of this
State prominent in the Army Sanitary
Enterprise, for convention Of Delegates
from the various Aid Societies and Aid
Commissions Of the State, to meet at
Des Moines on the 18th day of the pres
ent month, with view to adopt some
means to make more effective the great
contributions which the people of the
State are making TO the Sanitary fund.
This call is endorsed by very large
number Of the prominent gentlemen OF
the State, and there can be no question
that the Convention will be potent for
the good of the cause, and should be
recognized and participated in by every
Aid Society in the State. We trust that
the Aid Societies of this County will
take immediate steps to be represented.
The great liberality of our people in con
nection with this enterprise gives us a
great interest in this Convention, and
certainly our county should not be left
unrep~esented. The railroads and Stage
Companies will carry delegates at hall
fare.
Colonel ALLISON, our member of Con-
gress, has written us as follows in be
half Of the move ment:
DUBUQUE, Iowa. Nov 5th, 1863.
FRIEND RIcH Il enclose YOU a call
for Sanitary Commission nj Des Moines
on the 18th of November. The call full
" sets forth the object of the Conven-
ton, which is a laudable one know il
is difficult now 20 make a trip to Des
Moines, yet il is important that some re-
formation should take place in this branch
OF the service, so that this large tax mp
on the generosity Of our people, will be
surrey distributed as intended. Now
sanitary stores are variously sent, and
generally TO PARTIES who render no &C.
count. We have, doubtless, in this State,
donated 100000, at least. annually to
this cause, and who knows how it has
been distributed !? It is the intention oil
this Convention 10 organize a perfect
system Of accountability, which in view
Of the many complaints as to distribution,
seems necessary. | hope you will lay
this circular before your people, and, i
possible, send delegation TO this Con.
vention. Il but one person could 90 tie
object might be very much aided.
Yours in haste,
WIN. B. ALLISON.
