When to Clean the Teeth.

OF all the people who clean their teeth
habitually each day, probably only small
number make practice of doing so regu-
larry after eatinE-the most important
time OF all. 1t Is while eating that all the
little cavities or interstices between the
teeth become the repositories of fragments
of food, or traces of some acids in the food
are left on the teeth to cause incipient de
cay and hasten it where it has already
commenced. 1t is, of course, desirable to
brush the teeth on rising in the morning
and before retiring at night, but it is of
infinitelynore Importance that they should
be thoroughly cleaned after eating.

a Astonishing FaStS.

Writing on the subject of long fasts, a
correspondent of The Times of India saws
that in India fasts of thirty to forty days
are common among the Jains, from among
whom, once in each year, some individual
comes forward and undertakes to fast
thirty-fve, forty, and even sixty days
They do this with nothing but warm water
to drink, and viii die rather than take
food during the Dr ,scribed period. Quite

Vincent recently made large number of
observations of skin temperature in the

formula by means of which the skin tenn
perature may be approximately deduced
from those four elements He experi-

relation could thus be determined between

which soon appeared was that the relative
moisture of the air has but little influence
on skin temperature.

The Working Man,

The problem of the age is
how to elevate the working
man and give him better clothes.
better food, more leisure and
more Of the comforts of life.
This is the base of thought. the
goal towards which all the eff
forts Of our modern thinkers
tend. 1t is evident that the
great thing and the enc that
will go farthest in lifting the
working man in the scale. is
good health. Without this all
his labors are In vain. One of
his drawbacks is a tendency to
contract bronchial difficulties.
A cold upon the lungs will dis
able him for days and cause
him to lose time that cuts ser
iously into his savings and
tends to discourage him. Reid's
German Cough and Kidney
Cure will cure any malady OF
this sort and is the greatest
boon that the working man
ever received. This great rem
edy can be obtained every
where and of all druggists.

Fifty yards away we saw a big fellow
