What Makes Teeth Rot?

A discussion that should be of great
value TO society is being at present
carried on at the annual general meet
ing of the British Dental association,
which ut present is holding sitting at
London, says Harold Frederic in the
n. Y. Times. The dental surgeons in
coul Gil assembled appear TO be un.
anlmOuS rs 10 two great causes of the
obvious deterioration of human teeth.
Among the causes of the loss primarily
was the fact that people were lavish in
their waste of teeth. They had them
pulled out on yer: trivial provocation.
The second cause was that, with all
appearance of health and strength,
many teeth were starved. The mod
ern methods of preparing flour and
bread, the use of timed preserved
meats and fruits. together with the
scarcity of fish as Il common article of
food. tended to eliminate the earthly
salts most necessary TO the uourish-
ment and preservation OF teeth Edu-
cation also had something To answer
for. for Il child's brain was overstimul-
ated and i'll activity aSsimiated more
than its due share of the phosphates
from the circulation, and the teeth
therefore are starved.
Another cause of tooth failure ia the
chronic dyspepsia produced by con-
tinual swallowing OF masses of bac-
tera. To give IN idea of the minute
ness Of these organisms one of the
members of the association said that in
one case al least it would require no
fewer than u 800 O00. 900 TO cover a
square inch. The sitlings of the as
sociation continue, but as yet no
speaker has brought forward perma-
nent cure for toolhache or an antidote
for decay.

HER MOTHER MADE THE CALENDAR
Unique Arrangement for the Pleasure of a
Travelling Woman

Some one the other day thought of
Bazar. A daughter was to 90 away.
TO he gone a long time. on the other
side of earth. SO the mother. thiuk-
ing 10 bring her good cheer, bought
her Il calendar.
Now the ordinary calendar differs
little from its fellow, except happily
now and then in the way of quoted
phrase, or blilhesome child. or maybe
decorative fruit or flower. More than
that, no ordinary calendar seems an
individuals very own. As how could
it, with its counterpart on anybodv's
desk, and its mates all manufactured
bv the dozen?
But the calendar this mother made
could be duplicated by no one. for this
is what she did. Below the date on
each leaf there was bank space.
She therefore took the calendar apart,
sending its 500 leaves to as many diff
fereut friends and relatives asking
each 10 write some sort of salutation
on this blank space below the date.
When these were returned they were
bound together again and the calendar
was given TO the daughter, who knew
nothing of what had been done. She
was made 10 promise. however. to tear
off no leaf until the day had dawned
when the leaf was due.
What Il source of delight such a
calendar would be TO an exile from
home can easily be imagined. Every
day a different greeting from Il differ
ent friend! EVERYDAY new surprise,
and never to know till the morrow
what friend was to send a~ word of
good cheer.
The one addition this mother might
make on another calendar of its kind
would be to ask each friend to keep IA
record of the date when the greeting.
rs it were. fell due; then TO remember
both greeting and date. so that when
the exile read it in one of these tar
away countries she and her friends ut
home might, for moment ut least
stand consciously face t" face.

FLoCKING INTO THE CITIES.

The Hooking of the people to the cities
as demonstrated by the late census. is fur-
nishing matter for the thoughtful to talk
and write about. City people are presum ed
to be somewhat more wicked than those of
the country. 1t is assumed that the Young
man who leaves the farm with its STEADY
toll and hum-drum ways, and goes into the
city no live, will at once begin the descent
IN the scale of morals, and that unless he
shall prove to be unusually strong in the
matter of resisting evil influences he viii
sooner or later fall a victim to the machina-
tons of bad men and evil women with
whom he must necessarily come in contact
in the cities. Some of our moralists are
expressing fears that in the course of few
years-a generation or so at most-the
stalwert men of Inc country from whose
ranks the city's population is recruited
the men stalwart in morals and the virtues
as in physical structure-will be unknown
and then the American race, being unable
to strengthen itself with new and clean
blood from the farms, will deteriorate and
pass swiftly to decay. 1t is indeed a
gloomy picture of the future which some
of our editors and magazine writers are
painting. If one were to place confidence
in these morbid drawings and believe
what the prophets OF evil say, he
would be in state of constant sorrow
over the certain downfall of mankind. Our
minds will be in better condition and we
will require less sack cloth and ashes if
we permit reason and common sense to as
sert themselves.
1t is doubtless true enough that the ten
dency of the people is towards the cities.
This has always been true, and perhaps
always will be. If that tendency has
grown stronger within late years, it should
occasion no alarm; or, at least, no such
alarm as some entertain. There is cause

WHAT is FREE TRADE?
The poor old 1ntsr-oeean explains tina

AHe poor Ola Llter-Ucedn explains that:
The taxes on land in the British empire aver
age seven shillings sterling, which is equal to
sl.1o per acre. This is the estimate of Null
HOLLAND, an eminent English statistician, and
who happens to be a vehement free trader. The
taxes on land in the United States average l2I5
cents per acre. The Farmers alliance men
can put these two facts in contrast before de-
Gliding between the American method of raisiny
revenue by tariff duties md the British method
OF raising it by internal taxation.
The other fact that the Inter Ocean forgot
to mention was that there is a similar diff
ference in the rents paid for land in the
two countries; and that the land tax has
no connection with the question of free
trade or protection. The British govern
ment collects over $1,000 600 annually on
imports, mostly luxuries, aud in such a way
as not to foster monopolies. This govern
ment collects more than double that amount
yearly on imports, mostly articles of prime
necessity, and IN such a way as to encour-
age the formation of trusts and monopolies.
This is the difference between free trade
and protection. A tax of 100 per cent
levied equally upon all imports, is free
trade tariff: so is uniform tariff of per
cent; so is no tariff at all. Equality of
import taxes is free trade; discrimination
on import taxes is protection. A fair field
to all and favors to none, whether there be
tariff of l per cent. or of 100 per cent.
or whether there be no tariff at all except
on luxuries, as in England--this is free
trade.
An average tax of 60 per cent. on all arti-
cles imported or bought by the farmers,
with mostly useless tax of 10 per cent. on
articles produced by the farmers-this is
protection.
The word protection is a misnomer: the
proper word is discrimination. Without
discrimination there can be no protection.
A fair field and no favors, is all any tariff
reformer demands Equal taxation is sim
pie justice, to which, one would think, no
honest man could object.
