PRACTICAL REFORM.

Some very plain talk was INDUCED in
at the Twenty-fourth street meeting
yesterday. and considerable light was
let in on the question of the degrade
ton OF reputable neighborhoods. One
important feature of the situation as
revealed by the proceedings was the
helplessness of decent property holders
who have no desire to draw an income
from vice. but who are practically CO.
creed into doing 1t by their neighbors.
Another revelation, not novel, but not
unimportant, was the depressing proof
that vice is very profitable. and that
law breaking is both safe and remunera-
tive.
But the great underlying evil Of the
whole situation. the one condition with
out which none OF the troubles would
exist, is the constant inevitable and I'M
endurable alliance between the police
and vice. between the guardians Of the
law and the law-breakers. In West
Twenty-fourth street. as in every other
locality in which the establishment of
disorderly houses has been opposed, the
police are utterly unable to see what
they are paid to see and TO do what
they are paid to do. And whenever an
attack Is made on any Of the strong
holds of vice the first head which pops
up behind the breastworks has q police
! cap on 1t.
But. in spite of all the advantage
given to the traders in vice by these
circumstances, there IL no question OF
the final result in any case when the
friends Of decency are determined They
have only to push their case to win It.
| and as for those who resist, they should
| be made to pay the full penalty Of their
| nfyepsa

The Dalpy Teeth.

Some children begin to teeth at the
age of half "a year. others take more
time, and usually grow better material
At the age of seven years the baby teeth
should number twenty. AS soon as the
delicate milk pearls are cut decay begins
TO prepare the foundation for the second
teeth, which number twenty-eight and
should be perfect, strong. and beautiful
about the fourteenth year. The wisdom
teeth are often as long in coming as the
twenty-frst birthday. Teeth are the
parents gifts TO the children. Bad teeth
may be improved, but good teeth cannot
be made; like genluses, they are born.
Teeth degenerate through bad food and
administration; they can be strength
ened b. proper food and thorough mas
tlcation. Chewing not only helps diges-
ton. but preserves the teeth, which
without the exercise become weak.

This is the fourteenth week Of THE

More About Gains Wife.

To the Editor:
Adam. at the time OF the murder OF Abel, had
only two children. Cain and Abel. After the
death OF Abel but two male persons remained,
providing the Bible is correct when 1t states that
Adam was the first person created.
Now, the question is, Where did Cain get his
wife! Certainly not from among his father
daughters. as "A. X. S. c." writes. Adam and
Eve were not blessed with any daughters until
after the birth of Seth. who born after Enoch.
the Of Cain.
Hence he must have met his wife among other
people. And. strange enough. Cain succeeded in
getting a wife. despite the fact that he was q
marked man and every one knew that he was q
murderer
How many women would to-day marry pub
licly known murderer, and especially after being
cognzant OF the fact that he was one cursed BY
God to be a fugitive and vagabond?
And II there were other people existing, why

why is man corporal? And why did God permit

For Tired Feet.

relief will be found by using cushions IN

bles These may be made with several
thicknesses of old cloth, bagging. carpet
lining, or horse blanket, stitched to-
