This man is trying to joke his wife
about her cooking ability.
He says the household will suffer
from dyspepsia. It's poor joke.
Americans eat too much rich food,
without taking advantage of natural
antidotes to overcome the bad effects.
Nobody wants to diet. 1t is a
natural desire to want to enjoy the
good things in this world.
Read what prominent New
Yorker writes: he had been troubled
with equity rheumatism and its attend
ant painful symptoms for eighteen
months:
81 have subjected myself for
months to the severest rules of diet
recommended for such conditions,
and used almost all the remedies rec
commended for gout and rheumatism,
without any benefit, until 1 heard of
your imported Carlsbad Sprpdel
Salts, which I used faithfully for six
weeks, dieting for. the first three
weeks and afterward eating almost
anything I desired. All the gouty
and rheumatic symptoms left me after
the fourth week, and my general
health and spirits have become excel
lent once again. Your Carlsbad
Sprudel Salts deserve the widest pub
licity, and take great pleasure in
bringing this fact to your notice"

Romantic actors who want to retain their

melodramatic brethren, must keep good
company. 1t is in the artistic and not the
moral sense that this is meant: star of such

travel with support so weak that which
made a great many who visited the Bijou
last week very, very tired. 1t is not square
deal with the public; and II Mr. Mantell is

HUMAN TEETH AND HAIR.
The Time Il Coming When Both These
Features VIII Disappear.

With Us there is. TO say the least, a
strong and decided prejudice in favor
of luxuriant lresscs and pearly teeth.
says writer in the North american
Rertea0. But it is only prejudice, and
by no means universal. We see no
lack of beauty in the infants naked,
rosy scalp. or in its sweet little. tooth
less mouth. We even see Il kind of
majestic beauty in the ivory dome that
covers the sage's busy brain. A white.
shining billiard ball is by no means
unpleasing to the eye, and no one can
fancy its beauty improved by covering
half of it with coat Of hair, however
soft and silky, lustrous, brown or
golden. Birds had teeth once. How
should we welcome II prospect of the
return, Il rctrogresSion. to their former
semi-reptilian condition! Would YOU
think your canary or your brilliant
hued cockatOo improved in its appear
ance if the smooth. even edges of its
bill were garnished with saws of pear
ly teeth. like Il feathered and winged
alligator? The possession of full
com plement of teeth has always been
regarded as IN indispensable condition
OF perfect health. 10 our prehistoric
ancestors. who had no other grain mills
than their molars. it must have been
so; and the modern soldier in active
service would find his hardtack and
leathery salt beef rather unsatisfactory
fare without the dental integrity which
the examining surgeon so properly in-
sists upon. But the constantly improv-
ing science of cookery supplies the
remedy for the civilian. and. us to the
soldier. he is, like his teeth, relic of
undeveloped civil cation. The dogs
of war must go, teeth and all. En-
perience has demonstrated that the
luxurious diet of civilization, which
gives so little for the teeth to do, is. on
the whole, more conducive to vitality
and longevity than the hard fare of
savagery. Long before toothless gums
shall have become the rule all occasion
for teeth will have passed, either for
beauty Or use.
