Don't expect to have clean teeth or q
sweet breath while there is tinge OF
white on the tongue. 1t is an unmistak-
able evidence of indigestion. Drink sour
lemonade. eat ripe fruit and green vege-
tables for purgatives, exercise freely,
use plenty of water internally and ex-
ternally, and keep up the treatment UNI
til the mouth is clean, healthy and red.
Various things are suggested to coun-
teract an unpleasant breath resulting
from bad tooth, wine or garlic scented
dishes. Cinnamon, mint, creams, orris
root, cloves, mastic rosin and spruce
Euin will disguise some odors. Ten
drops OF tincture of myrrh in glass OF
water will sweeten and refresh the
mouth. Ateaspoonful of spirits of cam
phor or peppermint in the same gargle
is among the very best antiseptics, and
a few drops Of myrrh and camphor in
the water are recommended in case OF
cold, throat trouble or any slight indis-
position which may affect the breath. -

Fame's Eternal Camping Grounds. Where
Sleep Our Soldier DSssl.
Eighty-thr national cemeteries, wherein
$50. 700 soldiers are sleeping their last long
sleep, have been established within the
boundaries of the United States. The lay
ing out of these great gardens of graves
and maintaining them in such way as to
deserve this latter appellation have cost the
nation sum of money large enough to dis
prove, at least in measure. the old time
saying that republics are ungrateful."
But the money that has been expended to
properly mark and adorn the resting places
of the brave men who died that the nation
might live is not and has not been expend-
ed grudgingly. 1t has been paid out freely
as the last and only possible tribute to the
memory of men as brave as ever lived, and
who fought for home and liberty. In thus
commemorative the deeds of her common
soldiers the United States is quite unrivaled
by any other nation, ancient or modern.
This noble work could not have been ac-
complished but for wise and patriotic fore
sight exercised almost at the beginning of
