The world has wondered at the com.
pleteness which dental surgery has
obtained in the United States. The
main reason for this exceptional supe-
riority is explained In the fact that
sound teeth after the age of puberty
has been reached, is very rare among
our people, and the science Of deptis-
try has been accordingly fostered.
The great increase Of decayed teeth is
noticed, especially among children, by
cautious observers. Eminent dental
surgeons agree in the belief that the
decline of the teeth is due to the pres
ent artificial mode Of living, to adul'
terated provisions, and to the habit oi
cooking everything until tender.

copal Church. Of which 1.-THE Churchman" Is
an influential organ, has generally declined to
recognize any such comfy on the ground that

In commenting on this statement The

clares that great changes are coming over the
temper Of Christian organizations toward one

adoption by the Episcopal Church of "a wise

competitions with other Christian bodies. The
difficulty so far as the Episcopal Church is
concerned is that It Ia against denomination

II Is reported from Havana that General
Gomez Is preparing to take advantage OF the
dissolution of the Cuban Assembly to forward
his programme for the consolidation or CUBAN
sentiment In favor OF the withdrawal or Onlted
States authority from the island. The full
meaning Of this propaganda is not clear, but
the suggestion is that Gomez Is likely again
10 become by his own choice and CALCULATION

Cuban affairs. as he has been on more than
one occasion in the past
1t is not unnatural that man who has done
and suffered so much. and who Is justified In
placing n high estimate upon his military ser
vices TO the Cuban people. should be somewhat
impatient under existing conditions, and should
seek to establish his personal ascendancy by
the means nearest at hand. Nor is there any
reason to censure him for taking such n course,
provided that he does nothing calculated TO
excite resentment against the United States
and impair the authority which our Govern
mont must Of necessity exercise in Cuba for
longer or shorter time in the interest OF both
countries. aDd indeed, Of all the world. SO
long as Gomez devotes his talents and influence
to the cultivation OF just and humane senti-
ments. to the promotion Of order and industry
potriotism. no one will have cause to complain,
even though his activity may seem to be in
spircd by keen personal ambition
But It IS important that General Gomez and
all whose demeanor is to n greater or less ex-
tent directed by his will should understand
that no policy or action can be acceptable 10
or tolerated by the Government OF the United
States which seeks to undermine its authority
and 10 make more difficult and less successful
the processes Of rehabilitation which it Is con-
Quoting in Cuba That authority is now exer-
csed so far as prudence permits through native
agencies, but 1t IS absolute, as 1t Is indispensa-
bic 1t Is not diminished in the slightest de-
gree by It's delegation in various places ana
forms to Cubans, and it's termination cannot be
FASTENED by such demonstrations as General
Gomez is reported TO be fostering. How long
II may last nobody IS competent to say. bur it
will certainly continue until, In the Judgment
of the United States, no further need of it
exists
