Take Care Of Your Teeth.

Don't blame your dentist for poor
work if your newly filled teeth ache
when brought in contact with lce-cold
water.
Don't brush the teeth with soap
unless you want them to turn yellow
in time, and don't use charcoal paste,
because it will discolor the gums.
After using acid foods and drink
don't fail to rinse the mouth thoroughly
with tepid water in which pinch of
baking soda has been dropped
Don't fail to cleanse the teeth even
more frequently in summer than in
winter for heat causes greater fec-
mentation of the PARTICLES of food left
between the teeth than cold.
Don't take iced drinks into the
mouth too fast. Ice brought in direct
contact with the teeth cracks the
enamel contracts the metal Filings in
the teeth causing them to leak and
decay again.
Don't stop eating candy unless you
want to, for candy of itself does not
hurt the teeth. 1t is only by allowing
portions of the candy to remain on
and between the teeth long enough to
decompose or sour that the teeth are
injured.

To take the part of Trilby with the
sh%pely foot, Miss Summerville was
Obliged to reduce her weight to 1876
poends. This she did by heroic treat
m9nt and rigid diet. She became tall,
stdtueeque and pretty. And now. ap-
patently not satisfied with her tri-
uItphs. she seeks the Lillian Russell
m6hod of adding to her fame. She
wants a divorce from Mr.. Summer
vile, whose born name was Runnells.
Runnells evidently thinks his duty
ceased when he married an actress.
He took the stand that as his wife's
business was better than his own, she
SHOULD be the bread-winner.
The couple have been married for
sixteen years and lived together until
two years ago, when they quarrelled
ana separated. Two children had been
born to them, and both were given into
the custody of the mother.
AS she stood before New York mag
istrate recently, dressed in a neatly
fitting suit, with natty sailor hat. she
magic a prettier picture perhaps than
she ever did on the stage. She was ac-
coIrpanied by her attorney. and she
asked that her husband be arrested for
non,support. She said all she wanted
was to get a divorce. The matter of
adEeytising was not mentioned.

HOME MADE ICE.
Heps are Directions How to Make a Sim
pie Ice Machine.

A small ice-machine for the house
bolu, which in fifteen minutes will fur
nish a small cake of pure ice. consists
of a double sheet metal cylinder. COW
ereti on the outside with a protective
layer of asbestos for the purpose of
heating Insulation, and hung in sockets
by two central pivots. The receptacle
is filed with distilled water up to with
in half an inch from the top, and after
the rubber washer and metal cover are
adjusted il is tightly closed down with
a ssxew. The cylinder is then turned
arduAd once and the other cover un-
fastened. This permits the filling of
the space between the outer wall OF
the outer cylinder with chemicals used
for generating the cold temperature
in this case an ammonium salt and
water. After turning the cylinder
around rapidly for about fifteen min
utes the inner receptacle is withdraw
from the cylinder, held for minute in
hot water, and upon being opened a
piece of ice exactly the shape Of the
inner wall will slide out wlthou,
trQpble. Another round cylinder il
provided for the quick cooling of any
futd. The salt may be crystallized ou
ara used over and over again.

The hat when it reached the mistress
Of She White House was of pale green
stro~ with brown dots scattered over
it. These were small knots of grass.
One side of the hat was trimmed with
