Why do colorcd people as II rule have
such splendid teeth? Mostly because
they have lived on coarse food, which
made demands on the teeth. People
rs II rule now do not want to do any
chewing. They demand meat which
Is SO tender that it will melt in
the mouth, etc. Nature, prodlgal as
she Is, never bestows anything where
it Is not used, and the result is that
the civilized races are losing their
teeth. If the style continues to forbid
our teeth to do any grinding, our prog
eny of, say, 20O2 a. ID. will be born
toothless or with only rudimentary
teeth. AS individuals we cannot grow
good teeth in our heads by eating
coarse food. We are beginning to get
