Their Proper Care.
The care OF the teeth should, and
generally does, begin before their ap.
pearance but after the painful task Of
cutting teeth is over they are too oft
neglected. The childs first teeth
should be preserved as long as it is
possible to keep them in good condi.
tion. This lnsures the regularity and
soundness Of the later ones. 1t is,
however, this last set upon which SO
much of our health and happiness de.
ponds. Once lost they can never be
regained. The mouth and face be.
comes disfgured, the digestion poor
and the health OF the entire body at.
fected. There are many tooth pre-
partitions offered the public but the
most valuable and least harmful pre-.
server and beautifier can be made at
home from the following receipt:
English precipitated chalk (best) 5
or powdered Florentine orris root, /

green may be added if desired. This
quantity Of powder will fill four of
the ordinary bottles and together with
water aud good brush is all that's
needed for the proper care of the
teeth. l will fill this receipt, using

WICHITA. Kan. Jan. 21.-Mrs. Carrie
Nation came back to Wichita to-day, after
her recent incarceration under smallpox
quarantine and the net result OF ten nin-
utes of her work this afternoon are two
wrecked saloons. the pieces of which are
being sold tonight for souvenirs.
Mrs. Nation was assisted by Mrs. Julia
Evans. Mrs. Lucy wilhoit and Mrs. Lydia
Muntz all of the local w. c. T. U. organ
ization. With hatchets concealed under
their cloaks, they entered the saloon OF
James Burns. on Douglass avenue, and die
not leave a complete piece of glass or
working slot machine in the place. All
show cases. both for liquors and cigars.
as we'll as the plate glass windows and
doors, were broken. With lightning speed.
they ran to John Herrig's saloon, and had
everything in the front room, including
the plate glass windows. broken, when he
appeared with a revolver. placed IL at Mrs.
Nations head, and said that he would blow
out her brains IL she did not desist. She
yielded before the pointed revolver. and.
with her companions. ran to the Carey
Hotel bar, where she made her first at
tack on the saloons of Wichita three weeks
ago. There three policemen met her. ana
she struck at Detective Sutton with
poker. He showed her aside. and youth
struck him In the face. A policeman
struck the youth and knocked him down.
The police then overpowered Mrs. Nation
and her friends and took them to the city
prison. followed by 1900 people. Mrs.
Evans tried to push her way through the
crowd and begged for the release or her
mother, but the policemen were deaf to her
entreaties. Chief of Police cudbon dis
charged the prisoners after they reacneo
the iail and is condemned by the citizens.
They made him a promise not to wreck
anv more saloons before noon to-morrow.
Mrs Evans's hand was badly cut by brok-
en- glass.
After leaving the city building Mrs Ma
ton. in the coolest manner. began a street
lecture TO the immediate crowd that hao
surrounded the city building. saying that
she expected to begin saloon wrecking
again at noon tomorrow. when her truce
with the chief OF police expires. shak-
ing her fist at the crowd she said: Men OF
wichita this is the right arm Of God ant
I am destined to wreck every saloon IL
your city"
The women procured wagon and rode
through the streets In IL singing Nearer
My God to Thee" and kindred hymns.
They halted In front OF the saloons they
had smashed and held a prayer meeting.
The damage done by the three women
is estimated at between $500 and 5000
David Nation, the husband of Mrs. Ma
ton. was in the city but took no part in
the wrecking of the saloons, nor did he go
to the city jail when his wife was arrested.
The affair created intense excitement and IL
is estimated that 5000 persons. men and
women. viewed the wrecks.
