What the Consumption of Sweets Il
Doing for Americans.

What the Consumption of Sweets Ia
Doing for Americans.
There is a dlsagreeable suggestive
ness In a declaration made by Il prom
lnent dentist of this city last night in
peoples lecture" delivered in a pub
lie school building under the auspices
Of the board of education. The doc
tors subject was "The Care of the
Teeth and Mouth" and in the course
Of his remarks he announced that we
are fast becoming a toothlcss people
because of the absence Of intelligent
care. He pointed out that many chill
dren at the age of 2 years have de-
cayed teeth, while 1t Is very common
to find girls Of IA and 16 well supplied
with artificial teeth. These evils, he
said, can be avoided if parents will in
sist upon proper care and will impress
upon their children its great import
ance.
With only this published summary at
hand 1t may be easy to do the lecturer
an injustice. But If he went no far
ther than is here indicated 1t cannot be
said that lie struck at the root of the
evil which constituted his subject This
root is found in our inordinate con-
sumption of sweets II Is pitiful TO
contemplate the complaceney with
which unthinking or ignorant parents,
rich as well as poor, consent to cater
crlminally to the infantile demand for
candy. The effect is less disastrous.
perhaps, among the well to do, for the
reason that the stuff consumed is man
ufactured from superior materials. But
certain 1t is that with American chill
dren of every class the confectioner Is
patronized more generously than is the
butcher or the baker. 70 this fact Is
due most of the destruction of teeth
In youth, as well as many of the trou-
bles having their rise in the stomach.
Care of the teeth and mouth Is essen.
tial, of course, and will go far to mini
mize the evil results complained of.
But no amount of care will avoid the
evil" so long as parents continue to
destroy their infants feeding them up
on candy and consent to inordinate
consumption by their children of larger
growth. 1t Is the prevalence of the
''sweet tooth that threatens to make
of us a toothless people. New York
