but it should on no account be used
every day. OrrIs root does the teeth
no harm and gives pleasant odor to
the breath. and if all our dentifrices
were composed simply of orris root
and prepared chalk they would be
harmless enough. if not beneficial.
INV own plan is to use moderate
ly hard brush and plenty of cold
water. and nothing else, and my teeth
are in excellent condition. If people
would only pick their teeth carefully
after each meal. making sure that not
the slightest particle of food remains
near the gums or between the teeth,
and would, also. before retiring at
night, run a piece of soft thread
through their teeth. they would not
have any necessity for a dentifrice.
OF course, sweetmeats and candies
are bad for the teeth; SO is smoking.
or taking very hot or cold drinks; but
bad as all these undoubtedly are. /

has is the so-called dentifrice. Take

THE HOTTEST DAYS.
General Greedy Tells When a vacatIo
Should be Taken.

General Greedy Tells When Vacation
Should be Taken.
The incomes and conditions of the
greater part of the American people
forbid their leaving permanent homes
for any considerable length of time.
and to such classes it is a matter of
great and sometimes vital Importance
to know exactly what period of the
year should be chosen. so that they
shall obtain the greatest relief from
extreme temperature during their
brief summer outing. 1t too frequent
ly happens that men and women hay
ing but a weeks vacation are tempted
by the first heated term to take it at
that time, long before the maximum
summer heat prevails. The sun is
nearest the earth at the sum-
mer solstice, the 21st of June,
but the amount of heat re-
ceived by day continues greater than
that radiated by night for consider
able period after the solstice. reaching
its maximum when the amounts re-
ceived from the sun by day and radi-
ated into space by night are equal. 1t
goes without saying that the hottest
single day, OF even the hottest three
days. for any summer can not be alb
solutely foretold. since this period may
be slightly advanced or retarded by
violent atmospheric changes in the
shape of severe storms. The series
of observations made by the signal
service of the army have been con-
tinued for such number of years
that we can. however. speak with GER
tain confidence. based on the normal
daily temperatures, as to the
dates on which the three hottest
days should fall While these dates
vary in different sections of the coun-
try. it is sufficiently within the scope
of this article to say that the hottest
three days east of the Mississippi
river should occur between the 125h
and 18th of July. If, therefore, any
single week is 10 be taken with the
hope of escaping from extreme sum-
mer heat. it should commence not
later than the 10th of July.
Travel and residence in the extreme
western part of the United States are
most Objectionable on account of sum-
mer heat from the 18th of July to the
18th of August. General 4. W. Gree

SAVE YOUR TEETH.

Some Valuable Suggestions That Are
Welt Worth Trying.
What should a man use to clean
his teethP" asked a reporter of a we'll
known dentist recently.
Nothing but water. There are
more good teeth ruined by so-called
dentifrices than by all other causes in
the world put together. The object of
the makers of these dentifrices is. of
course. to produce a preparation that
will. with very little rubbing of the
brush. make the teeth look perfectly
clean and white. To accomplish this
they put pumice stone. and sometimes
strong alkalies IN their preparations.
Pumice stone viii unquestionably take
all the enamel with it. An alkali will
make a yellow tooth look white in a
few seconds. but before a week has
passed it will have eaten away nearly
all the enamel and utterly destroyed
the tooth.
lin walking along the street you
often see fakir,' by way of adver-
Using his patent dentifrices, call a
small boy from the crowd near by. and
opening the boys mouth. rub the
dentifrice on his dirty teeth. and in a
minute almost takes off all the tartar
and makes the teeth look perfectly
pure and white. Now. man like that
fakir ought to be arrested. for he has
forever destroyed the boys teeth. His
preparation, composed of powerful
alkali. is eating away the enamel Of
the boys teeth. aud in few months
the boy will not have sound tooth in
his head. The dentifrices, composed
chiefly of pumice stone. are not as bad
as those cont aiming an alkali. because
they will not destroy the teeth so
quickly; but. if used habitually. they
will certainly destroy them in the end.
should advise any man by all means
% use no dentifrice of any descrip-
non. unless it be prepared chalk II
Inis Is used not oftener than once

CARE OF THE HAIR.
Simple Directions for Securing a StroI
and Healthy Growth.

Simple Directions for Securing a Strong
and Healthy Growth.
The hair should be washed only
when absolutely necessary for pur-
poses of cleanliness, and should not
be wet when dressing it for the day.
The frequent use of water removes the
natural oil from the hair. rendering
it harsh and increasing the tendency
10 split. The ends of the HAIR should
be clipped every four or five weeks.
thus keeping it free from split ends.
If the hair is uneven. cut to an even
length and continue the clipping. But
beyond this. the secret is in the free
use of the hair brush; as often as ono
brushed-until the scalp glows, and
while brushing. at least once day
give as MANY as one hundred and fifty
strokes of the brush. This requires
but a few minutes, if given rapidly,
and is not too MANY for a head of soft
shining tresses.
When 1t becomes necessary to wash
the hair take the yelk of an egg.
slightly beaten, and rub we'll into the
roofs, WITCH ncdrIJ VI IluSc tuo hcd,t
in tepid water. into which is poured a
very few drops of amomnia. Then, by
he fire, rub the hair with fowls until
peri .ctly dry, brush and part the hair
with the fingers The egg rendeR the
hair fine and siIken and the ammonia
promotes Its growth. Or, instead of
the egg use sage tea; put two OF three
spoonfuls of sage into a cup and pour
boiling water over it. When the tea
is cold rub the scalp with it and rinse
as above. The hair brushes used
should be of the best kind. with good
bristles. which penetrate to the scalp.
Do not use wire brushes, they break
the hair and injure the roots. Plenty
of exercise in the open air and sun
shine strengthens the hair and makes
it grow. This proves that natures
remedies are always the best. Cor:

An Unostentatious Visitor which Never

The cyclone is variety of patent

when it is all over and the natives be-

ears and hunt around for "a missing

advertisement and an aching void

with which an eighteen carat cyclone
saturates a town with climate and
splatters it over the surrounding seem

seen one (from distance). 1t is very
