 better than artificial teeth. A skillful even crooked and misproportioned teeth. The natural teeth will usually last a lifetime with proper care, and American dentists are the best in the world. The main thing in preserving teeth is to keep them clean. The best time for brushing them is invariably at night, after your last meal. This is most important mat ter. It is the particles of decomposIns food sticking in the interstlces of the teeth that attack and make them decay. Never go to bed with your teeth un- brushed or your mouth not thoroughly cleansed with water Rinse the mouth morning after you have been drinking coffee. Next to tobaco, nothing discolors the teeth more than coffee. You can sec what 1t will do by looking inside a cof- feepot that has been used some time.
 Have your teeth thoroughly put in or- der at regular intervals by a first-class dentist. If they are not inclined to decay, once a year is often enough; if other wise then twice or three times. Have

Padua's Palace of Reason.


 Padua Correspondence of The Pal Mall
 Gazette.
 Italy should really have the riches of all the mines of Golconda to maintain her artistic and historic treasures as they should be. There is scarcely a village which does not have its antiquity, so that 1t would be impossible for the richest government in the world to do what is expected of comparatively poor Italy.
 This was brought forcibly before me today in the magnificent hall of the Pal ace of Reason here. The hall itself-said to be the largest in the world-is in good enough repair but the palace requires mill lions to put 1t in order. It has practically only one big vaulted frescoed room, con taining 8 colossal wooden horse by Don atelo; nothing else. Across the center lies a strip of white marble, put down by no less a person than Calico, to mark the noon hour The great horse was made for a cardinal to simulate the taking of Troy. but is dear to all patriots, as five men lived in it for eight days under the Austrian dominion while the Austrian po- lice searched for them high and low. They lived to tell the tale, the last, Cap tain Beltrami, dying only a few months ago.
 It is, however, the university and its memories which dominate the town. Eng land has her interest here also. Among all the coats of arms of great students that of William Harvey is proudly exhib- tied. He studied here and left his mark among his contemporaries. Other Eng. fish and Scottish names are also to bt seen. The building, however, breathes the spirit of Calico. In the great hall he gave his lectures from a wooden pulpit ' still preserved. which is nothing but rough boards stoutly nailed together and much shrunken from the knives of foreign sou venir hunters. Some of his bones hang in the anatomy room, poor reminders of a great man. the glory of the university and of Italy.

each decayed spot filled at once so soon as it is large enough. Then, say twice a year. have the dentist scrape and polish your teeth. This takes away stain and discoloration and makes them gleam white and pearl-like. In cleansing them every night use a moderately stiff brush, Pass the brush up and down between the teeth as well as across. This removes bits of food and the clogging matter that sometimes lodges between them.
 One dire enemy of the teeth Is tartar that incrusts them roughly about the gums and loosens them. Have your dentist keep watch of this and remove it once or twice a year, as Is necessary. Twice a week use a good dentifrice. An excellent one-nons better-hkewise very cheap one, is made by mixing one ouncs of pulverized whfee castle soap with two ounces of precipitated chalk and adding about a teasponful of powdered myrrh. In this same proportion any quantity of the dentifrice may be made. The drug gist will mix it for you.
 Children should be trained to brush their teeth as they are trained to wash their faces and to consider 1t as much of a necessity. Keep watch of the growth of their permanent teeth, and if these come crooked or crowded have the defect remedied. You will often save thus 0 child's future beauty. 10 Is for woman to regain for the civilized human race the splendid teeth of it's savage state.
 No object is more offensive to contem- plate than a toothless mouth or, one con taining black. snaggy, decaying teeth. If through neglect or disease you have lost your natural teeth replace them of course with artificial ones, but be careful that these are not too large and too white. It is to the credit of Americans that when they are unfortunate enough to lose their natural teeth they supply the lack with manufactured ones and so preserve the symmetry and sightliness of the mouth as well as their own good digestion. This Is well, very we'll. But let me speak of one unpleasing point: Many women who wear artificial teeth have a habit of removing them at times and appearing in presence of their families with bare gums This is downright horror. Tn no way can a wife and mother more ef- fectualy repel her husband and children from her personally.
 The old way was to take artificial teeth out at night and deposit them In a bowl of water. This is not now done, for "store teeth" have reached such per- lection that 1t is not necessary. Simply cleanse the set thoroughly and replace 1t in the mouth, and let none see you without 1t. folding rubber cup is made that is a great convenience in travelling to take along with one and FbrusA tfie artificial teeth in.

 Simultaneously with the change in its sailing day the American line will begin operating it's ships on a four-weeks turn as 1t is called. That is to say each oi its vessels will make one round trip voy- age from New York 70 Southampton and back each month instead of one every three weeks. This will give the ships a week fin port between crossings. The American line officers announce that this change is made in order to allow more time for the overhaul of the ships and be- cause they believe it will enable them to keep the vessels In perfect condition to carry out their government contracts satisfactorily.
 Some idea of the tremendous extent of the commercial importance of this ocean mail business may be gained from the fact that last year the foreign branch of the New York postoffice handled over 100, ,O0O, 900 pieces of mall This does not include the closed mails which pass through the office in transit, from such cities as Chicago, St. Louis and San Francisco and from foreign countries like Mexico.

Save for my daily range
 Among the pleasant fields of Holy Writ, I might despair. -Tennyson. Fourth ouarter. Lesson VII. Psalm
 xiii. November 15, 1908.
 Daxid's Trust in God.
 There are some pslams which set forth the general providence of God. This is not one of them. This is the psalm of special providence. Only those who are in covenant relations with Cod have a right to this Hebrew hymn.
 Jesus Is the Shepherd. His blood has constituted the flock. The Good shep- herd giveth his life for the sheep. He who believes in the Shepherd and his vicarious sacrifice, who hears his cat and obeys, to such an one the psalm be- longs.
 In Eastern lands the comfort and safe ty of the sheep depend largely upon the shepherd. his judgment, courage. love. He must know where to find pasture, and how to conduct his flock safely from one to another; how to keep away from the mountain torrents. tut lead to the still and safe waters. He must have courage tc meet and strength to drive off the robbers-humRn and brute. How perfectly does Jesus meet the require ments of a true shepherd In the infinite ness of his wisdom. love. and power!
 But the shepherd's office are not all and always those of genteness. The must often be rebuked. One feels the sudden and violent wrench of the crook drawing 1t back from danger. Another feels .the correcting rod striking 1t to earth. David had gotten out of the right path moro than once. and afar: but he Dlesses the Shepherd who mad restored hio soal."
 The fifth verse witnesses a change of figure from an outdoor to an indoor scene. from animal to human lite. Yet, radical as the change is. 1t is scarcely mo- ticed by the reader--the one part glides so imperceptibly into the other. It is no quet-room. The tabel is laden. There re- cline the guests. while servants anoint them with fragrant oil, and i'll their cups to the brim. Tn the Orient yet the banque t-room is open to the public: and whoever will may enter. and, standing against the wall, may witness the goodly scene. The very enemies of the. guests may come in and witness the prefer ment of those whom. defended by their royal host. they can not harm. Sc. of- ten, Poverty and Pain stand aside, glar- ing impotently at a child of God reclin- ing at his royal banquet-table. Then, too. a child of royalty must have attendants. So Goodness and Mercy follow his eteps.
 One supreme experience, one crucial test remains--death! An eminent French man exclaims, Neither the sun nor death can be looked at steadily" But this psalm of the soul has It's note of cheer even for the hour and article of death: Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow, I shall fear nc evil" If I see not my Shepherd.

 But do not think this psalm ts to cioss with even the triumphant strain of vic. tory over death. Jt reaches .one higher note. 1t overlsaps the chasnn, and fairly joins the invisible choir, "I will dwen in the house of the Lord forever"

 The full meaning of this psalm can hardly be obtained without some ac- auaintance, direct or indirect. with Ori- ental life. For example. the pasture of the East is unlike the pasture with which VIC are familiar. It is fenceless. It is necessarily large. So much barren land intervenes. Ravenous beasts, robbers. and storms are common. The importance of the shepherd is enhanced by these circumstances. 4 flock without @ shep- herd would be an anomally in the Orient.

Columbus, Ohio, May 10, 1908. Six years ago I had a severe attack Of Inhammatory Rheumatism. I was laid up in bed for six months. and the doctors had did mo no good. They changed medicine every week. but nothing they prescribed seemed to help me. Finally I left on their treatment and began the use of 6. 6. Q. My knee and elbow joints were swollen terribly. and at one time my joints were % swollen and painful that could not close them when opened. Twas SO bad that could not move knee or foot. In fact, had one of the sever. est cases of Rheumatism ever heard of. I was getting discouraged, you may be sure. when began s. s.

BAN ON

Children of Catholic Parents

Priest

Tarrytown. N. Y, Nov. 1s.-Rev. T.
J. Early, rector Of the Catholic Church
of Irvington, has forbidden the chill
dren of Catholic parents in his parish
to attend the sewing school which for
years has been maintained by Miss
Helen NJ. Gould.
About 500 children attend the school.
Farther Early's first objection was
made when some OF the Catholic chill.
dren attended a lucheon given by Miss
Gould on Friday. At this luncheon
meat was served and the Catholic chill
dren partool of 1t, unmindful Of the
day AS soon as Father Early learn.
ed Of this he put the school under a
ban. Since then there has been some
correspondence between the priest and
Miss Gould. Another thing the priest
objected to was that hymn was sung
at the opening OF the affair In her
reply TO that complaint Miss Gould
told him it had been her wish to have
the daily sessions OF the class opened
by readings from the Scriptures, but
out of difference to the Roman Casho-
lie children she had refrained from
having this done In the future her
original wish will be carried out.
