The coaching parade. which has been an annual
fixture in New-York for more than twenty seven

A PERNlCIoUs HABIT.
How to Stop Children from Sucking
Fingers and Thumbs.


Fingers and Thumbs.
The habit Of sucking the thumb
among children is one probably of very
ancient origin. 1t may have descend
ed from our simian ancestors, although
no observations bearing upon this point
so far seem to have been made. An
other explanation of the habit may be
that the pressure of the thumb in the
child's mouth causes some relief DUR
ing the period of dentition, and thus
helps to allay the irritation present in
the gums. But whatever the cause
nay be, the habit is undeniably bad
one. and when persistently and extern
siyely practiced calls for correction.
Many devices, of course, have from
time to time been introduced with this
end in view. Some have proved sue
cessful; on the other hand, OCCASION
ally all have ended in failure. A med
zeal man relates in the Boston Medical
and Surgical Journal how a difficulty
of this nature was successfully sur
mounted in the following way: For
two years every available plan for stop
ping the habit had been tried on a little
girl of five years of age, but without
any satisfactory result. Accordingly
the practitioner proceeded to immob-
ilize the elbows of the child at very
obtuse angle. a slicate of potash ban
dage was applied to each arm, reaching
nearly from the shoulder to the wrist.
After these had hardened they were
split at the sides and removed. They
were then covered and lined with fan
mel. These two long tubular band
ages could then, like gauntlets, be
pulled on and off as the parents wished.
This method proved perfectly success
full. In two weeks time the child was
cured of the habit.-N. Y. Journal.

The Way to sen Fruit.

In order to effect ready sale for
fruit of any kind in these times of great
competition, it is necessary to grow
large and highly-colored fruits, TO

the marlet-more than quantity, al.
though the latter must not by any
means be overlooked. Let it be noted
If fruit is to be sold privately, that

through a market agent, favor will
count for. nothing; but rich color and
soundness of condition are everything
towards securing the highest price. All
fruit should be grown as large and high.

packed before it becomes soft and over.

BRUSHING THE TEETH.
The Proper Way in Which TO Perform
This Imnertnnt OperntiOn.


This Important Operation.
The upper teeth should De brushed
downward and the lower teeth upward
from the gums. Do not brush the teeth
crossways, as they are apt to become
loosened and the gums will also suffer.
The inside of the teeth should be
brushed in the same way. Tepid water
is the best to use both for cleansing the
teeth and rinsing the mouth out after
ward.
The tooth brush should be small and
curved, so that the bristles can get in
all the interstices of the teeth. 1t should
not be too hard, and, when new tooth
brush is purchased, it should be soaked
in water for several hours before using.
II the brush is dried on a towel after
being used, and stood up on end in the
air. it will last much longer Tooth
brushes should never be kept in closed
receptacles.
Tooth powder should be chosen with
great discretion. For general use the
following will be found a very good
powder: Mix together half an ounce
of powdered bark, a quarter of an
ounce of myrrh, one drachm of cam
phor and one ounce of prepared chalk.
Another simple recipe is as follows:
Add two ounces of camphorated chalk,
two drachms of very fine powdered
boraX, half an ounce of powdered orris-
root and half drachm of powdered
myrrh; mix the ingredients thoroughly
together and keep the powder in a stop
perd bottle.-San Francisco Chronicle.
