Care of Children's Teeth.

Dentists urge mothers to take
more care of their children's teeth
during the FIRST years of life. From
the time when the little white points
come pricking through they should
be cleaned carefully at least once a
day, for ON the care of these first
teeth depends to great set. A
small soft brush should be applied
night and morning, but if only
once can be managed, then at night.
A little grated CASTLE soap used
two or three times a week is good
thing for children's teeth as we'll as
for those in older jaws. A pinch
of precipitated chalk on the tooth.
brush with the soap makes a COM
bination that cleans the teeth better
than anything else. The first teeth
should be watched closely, for
cavities, which should be promptly
filled with soft filling, the idea be-
Ing to retain the temporary set until
the jaw has stretched sufficiently
to receive the second teeth. Moth
ers often excuse a row of blackened
stumps in child's mouth with the
remark that poor teeth are an in-
heritance" from one parent or the
other. This is true, undoubtedly,
but it should be the incentive to
redoubled effort on the mother
part. Two or three generations OF
care will produce sound teeth, and
that then will be the heritage passed
on. 1t is worth any sacrifice to
secure this double blessing and
beauty.
A point often neglected by moth
ers during the teeth forming period
is to see that the proper food is sup
piled. A teaspoonful of lime water
often to the baby in arms, and later
soft.boiled eggs and other bone-pro
ducing foods, should be provided.

The Ants Talked.

It is becoming the general belief
among naturalists that all living
creatures have some communication
with each other, at least to the ex.
tent Of making their wants, fears,
etc., known to others of their spe-
cies. A writer On ants recently in.
vestigated the matter as far as those
interesting little insects are con-
cerned. He saw a drove of ants If
a small black variety, which we're
apparently moving to new quarters,
those going in q certain direction
carrying eggs CT sick and helpless
relatives, while those moving in the
opposite direction appeared 10 have
just deposited their burdens and TO
be returning for another load Of
'.household effects"
They were probably pretty we'll
along with their work, jud9jog- BY
the leisurely way. in which they
would frequently put their heads
together AZ though chatting about
their new quarters, or some other
interesting subject. Il being :
question in the naturalisAs mind
whether they we're really talking OF
not, he hit on the sxpediept OF
numbering one Of their numbsr. to
zee if the others would run and
tell what bad happened. He says |:
