when the proprietor is not in they en-

tied success. Having nothing to do, l
watch their mouths-their mouths that
cannot be stationary.
Up to the age Of 2S, have learned,
a mans mouth closes and opens like q
child's, and what teeth are displayed
are the upper ones. At 80 the lower
lip becomes loose, and the lower teeth
are as much shown as the upper teeth.
At so the tops or edges Of the lower
teeth are blunt, but they are still white.
At 81 the upper teeth don't show at all.
The lower ones edges then are a pale
brown.
"And so on, as the years so by, the
lower lip droops more and more, the
lower teeth become shorter, and their
edges grow blunter, thicker and dark
er. 1 have often wondered why it Is
that the lower teeth wear down in this
way, while the upper ones don't do 1t,
and why only the upper front teeth de-
