Brushing the Teeth.

The upper teeth should be brushed down
ward and the lower teeth upward from the
gums. DO not brush the teeth lengthways,
as they are apt to become loosened, and the
gums will also suffer. The inside of the
teeth should also be brushed in the same
way. Tepid water is the best to use both
for cleaning the teeth and rinsing the
mouth out afterward.
The toothbrush should be small and
curved, SO that the bristles can get into all
the interstices of the teeth. 1t should not

CARRIERS
WHITE
LEAD
IS STRICTLY Pure.

The Carter White Lead Company
stands ready at any and all times by
practical tests to prove that the Garter
Lead will cover one-fourth more sur.
face, and do it better, than any brand of
lead manufactured by what is known as
the old Dutch Process. and also to prove
it's superiority in body whiteness and
durability.
We invite practical painters to make
independent tests by carefully measuring
surface and weighing the leods to be
tested and then comparing results,
which will in every instance prove that
Carter Lead will cover one
fourth more surface
The superiority of Carter Lead is due
to improved methods and the putting
into use the very latest machinery by
which a perfect corrosion is obtained,
and, consequently, when you purchase
a keg of Carter Lead you get keg of
Lead that is perfectly corroded.
A keg of Carter White Lead is
All Paint.
The new plant recently put in opera
ton in Chicago is the largest in the
world and the combined output of the
Chicago and Omaha factories places the
Carter Company in position to fill all
orders promptly.
There is more Carter White Lead
sold than any other brand manu-.
featured in the United States.

Lord Salisbury has agreed to submit the
question Of boundaries between British
Guiana and Venezuela to arbitration has
not been accepted by the British colo
