SERMON ON TEETH Did you ever
think of what inestimable value is a sound
well-formed set of teeth to man, and
more especially to woman-what infu-
ence they have upon the character often
through lifes Independent of their ami
ma uses, their moral effect is greater th; n
one would suppose. For instance, take
two girls OF fifteen; say the one with beau
tiful teeth. the other with very defec
tive set. We will suppose they have
equal beauty Of person, and are equal in
all intellectual endowments. You will
fad vast difference in the development
OF character as they mature into woman
hood. The oas with splendid teeth will
soon know they are the admiration of all,
and We are apt to dwell upon what We are
most admired for. She will court every
opportunity to show her tseth ready TO
smile, and laugh, and be gay; while the
other, unfortunately, will be constantly
told Of her misfortune ! "What beauti-
full girl, but such teeth - She unlike the
more fortunate one, will try to conceal
her teeth, will laugh as seldom as posi-
bile; and, when she does laugh, it is a
suppressed iaugh-s sort of pucker Of
the lips.
