Watercress and Its Worth.

There is always appetizing appearance
about plate of fresh, green watercress,
dainty and cool, tender and pungent. When
made up into tempting sandwiches, the
plate usually leaves the table empty
When the watercress season begins in
spring, peoples systems are usually a little
run down through want of green garden
vegetables and fresh fruit. There has been
strain put upon the organs of the body by
the cold. The blood has used up many of
its acids and salts and needs to replenish
them.
In watercress there is a pleasant means
of providing the blood with a good supply
of natural salts, potashes and acids This
quick-growing water plant is more largely
endowed with such matters than any other
vegetable, excepting alone spinach, the
notable mineral giyer.
One would not consider the watercress to
be possessed of more salts and acids than
the sour rhubarb another of spring S
food medicines, yet 1t contains twice the
quantity. Rhubarb contains oxalic acid
and also malic acid, the mixture giving its
excessive sOurness. The acids Of water
cress are various. They are not nearly so
keen as in rhubarb. and their action is
somewhat covered by the sharp taste Of the
volatile oil in watercress, such Oil being
entirely absent In rhubarb so that the
work of its acids is not softened or alter
ed at all.
This Oil in watercress is in somewhat fair
quantity though not in amount enough u
make its presence felt as oil. 1t is distrib
uted about the tender leaf and stalk in the
shape of tiny flavor bodies. each small mite
of oleaginous nature. The pungency owned
by these flavor bodies is derived from the
keen nature of the race whence the water
cress springs.
This race is that of the cross; hence the
word 'cress." which in one of its meanings
has reference to the cross shape seen in the
flowers of all the plants of the extensive
family of Crucifera, the cross carriers.

though this may be crowded with as much
lace and ribbon as the wearer likes.
All the points of fashion except the train,
mark the costumes shown for commence
ment wear. Skirts escape the floor or touch
it, sleeves are deliberately picturesque, and
the hips are made slight by many devices
in narrow down-running tucks and pleats.
If the graduating girl is too much like
lead pencil in figure, a pulled hip yoke Or
deep encircling tucks may build her out at
this point. But the tendency is to have the
costume below the waist look as much like
inverted V as possible, which means, If
the fad increases. that we will come to
lacing again after while. Meantime, the
waist is left at a comfortable limit, but the
sloping girde is intended to decrease the
effect of it's size.
The Hair Dressing.
AS it is the fad on commencement day
for the pupils of country colleges to walk
about the grounds with only brilliant para
soils to give them a touch of color, the grad
uating couture is now carefully arranged
Pretty and youthful styles displayed by
prominent coiffeurs show the hair twisted
in heavy bunch at the nape of the neck.
The locks are divided evenly at the back

wrapped around the coil, which may be

white bow straight across the top. The

GOOD TEETH DON rs
MoLARS NEED SAME CARE AS
YOUR COMPLEXION.
Three Brushes Are Needed for Thor
ough Cleansing Every
Day.

Don't think you can be beauty without
good teeth.
Don't bestow less care upon the teeth
than upon complexion and hair
Don't stand up when brushing the teeth'
The duty is certain to be performed much
more thoroughly and carefully when si,tlhs
and at ease.
Don't brush across the teeth but up and
down; the upper teeth from the gums oowh-
ward, and the lower teeth from the gums
upward. ,,
. Don't think one toothbrush enough. Three
are needed One should be rather hard and
one moderately soft, while the third should
be small and round.
teeth for it is at night, when the tongue
is in repose, that the acid of the saliva gets
in its work on the teeth.
Don't sleep with the mouth open. Dust
and gritty particles floating in the atmos-
phere enter the trap thus set for them and
injure the enamel by irritation.
Don't let tartar accumulate on the teeth,
for it brings a whole train of evils IN its
wake Have it removed by dentist at
least twice year.
Don't use tooth powder which contains
gritty acid or irritating substances, as the
first two act injur4Ously on the teeth ana
the last on the gums.
Don't fail to rinse the teeth thoroughly
with an alkaline wash after taking acids.
such lemon juice, vinegar or strong
medicines
Don't swallow food without mastication.
Modern cookery, by making mastication al
most unnecessary, is responsible for much
decay of the teeth.
Don't use one side of the mouth only when
eating. for then the teeth have not all the
same amount of exercise and decay sets in
more rapidly on one side than the other.
Don't crack nuts or bite thread with the
teeth
Don't fail to ponder occasionally on these
facts:
That without good teeth there cannot be
thorough mastication.
Without thorough mastication there can
not be perfect digestion.
Without perfect digestion there cannot be
proper assimilation.
Without proper assimilation there cannot
be nutrition.
Without nutrition there cannot be health.
Without health what is life worth?
Hence, the paramount Importance of good
teeth.
