White bread and fine flour are named
by Sir James Crichton Browne as one
of the causes of the increase of dental
cares. Failing to eat as large proper
ti0ns of bran as our ancestors did, we
are deprived to a large degree of the
fuorinc which they contain. The
enamel of the teeth has more iluorine,
in the form of fiuoridc of calcium,
than any other part of the body.
Fluorine might, indeed be regarded as
the characteristic chemical constituent
of this structure, the hardest of all ami
NAL tissue; hence supply of fuorine,
while the development of the teeth is
proceeding, is essential to the proper
formation of the enamel, and any de-
ticiency in this respect must result in
thin and inferior enamel.

Trolling With Live Init

The improved fishing device shown
in the accompanying illustration, and
which has been patened by Mr.. Henry
j. Walsh, is designed to keep the bait
used alive for an indefinite period.
The hooks, instead of being attached
TO the line in the usual way, are white,
and are secured by swivel and white
wire leaders to an annealed, Hanged,
flint glass tube, through which the
water circulates, and in which is held II
live minnOw, or other living bait the
glass magnifying the size of the fish in
the tube, and its effects being such
that, at distance of foot, only the
half fish in the tube is seen by the fish
in the water outside, the hooks cscap-
ing observation, says the Scientific
American.
An opening in the front of the tube
and one in the cap closing its rear pro-
yideS for Il free circulation of water
through it, SO that one small bait fish
may last for a day, the fish being in
serted in the tube by unscrcwing the
rear cap. 1t is said that this device
has been successfully employed in
catching muskallonge, pickercl, pike

New Use FOR Cotton Seed OH.

\ new coating for the protection of
metalwork and woodwork from the
effects of the weather or of water is
based on the adaptability of cotton
seed oil to unite with lead. Melted
lead is poured into cotton seed oil under
continual stirring, and the mixture is
allowed to cool. When the oil is poured
off the lead will be found at the bot
tom, but reduced in weight by the
absorption of a part OF it in the oil.
The operation is repeated, with the
lead left at the end of each trial, five
times. When cold, the oil has the APP
pcarancc of thick varnish, and is ready
to be applied with a brush or a sponge.
This coating unites quickly and firmly

stoves without ITres.

There has recently appeared fresh
illustration of what knowledge is of
most worth" in the dangers that come
from the pitiful ignorance of the sim
plest facts of science still prevailing
among presumably well-informed per-
sons. Certain patent fuels" have been
put on sale to be used in stoves without
chimney connection, and are advertised
as being entirely harmless. The natural
result has followed. Gulliblc mer-
chants, ministers, and even doctors
have been buying them and nearly
smothering themselves or their friends
with the gases which must result from
the combustion of any form of carbon.
The makers of these fuels state that
ventilation is required with their appa-
ratus, but their customers reason, Why
let in the cold air if the fuel is harmless,
as stated? or they imagine that one
opc,ing from room into hallway Sc
cures ''ventilati ton" Probab bly, most of
the victims of the patent fuels have
read about the process of combustion,
but they have not learned its nature
from experiments that would make
this knowledge real to them. Their
education has been of the Anticipated
but not yet abandoned kind which sub
stitutes the study of books for the
study of things AS an explorer who
tries to cross a deep river is drowned
if he cannot swim, SO any one who
lives in the present age, when natural
forces are being put to service as never
before, is badly off if he does not I'M
derstand how to use these forces with
out letting them overwh elm him.
Science is doing many wonderful
things in these times, but its achieve
ments always consist in employing the
laws of nature, never in circumventing
them. Unpopular Science Monthly.

Royal Baking Powder never disappoints;
