we depended upon the patronage of
men and women who have passed the
prime Of life. 1t is a mistake to as
sumo that most of the false teeth are
made for old persons. l venture to eay
that scarcely a day passes that pa
tient well in the sixties does not come
to my Office for some slight treatment
to an almost perfectly sound set of
teeth
Il have frequently treated men and
women past fifty who never had a
tooth out, and but one or two slight
cavities that required filling. On the
other hand, we are repeatedly called
upon to make artificial teeth for very
young persons. / attribute it to the
use of the hard toothbrush, which is
a comparatively modern invention
The use of hard brush, even oc-
casionally, Is great mistake. The
softest kind Of hogs bristles makes

COUPLES BROUGHT TO ALTAR
Enticins Premiums Caused "Epi.

enticing Premiums Caused "Epi-
demic" of Marriages.
In certain quarters of the world en-
ticing premiums are put upon early
marriages. Some years ago the mayor
of southern town in France offered a
reward of 500 to every couple under
the age of "a who sought the malri-
monial altar during his term of office.
The mayor expended many thousands
OF francs in the manner described.
Many years ago, when the number of
marriages in a certain Alsatian town
was far below the average, the muni-
cipal authorities publicly announced
that all persons who married within
certain period should be exempt
from local taxes for the space of five
years. An epidemic of marriages set
in at once. A well-known Austrian
nobleman was anxious to encourage
matrimony among the peasants on his
estate. He undertook to provide each
bride with four pairs of gloves yearly.
The offer acted like a charm.

Measures Growth Of Plants.

The United States department of
agriculture has clever little instru-
ment which is used to record the
daily growth of a plant. The top leaf
of a Seeding is held in tiny clasp
which in no way harms the plant.
To this clasp is attached small lever,
the point of which is furnished with
an indelible pencil, which rests light
ly upon paper record. AS the plants
grow the pencil naturally travels up
ward and leaves on the paper record
OF the plants growth This shows
the exact increase in growth of plants
reared by electricity to those grown
normally.

The knowledge That PAYS.

If you glance round at the work
of some of our big men you will be
surprised to see how many have
made their reputation by doing one
small thing, but doing it well. If a
man gets to the front in the narrow
subject the world credits him with
knowledge of all the rest. 1t is, how
ever, even easier to acquire a large
knowledge than an advanced special
knowledge of one narrow subject. The
speciality must not be too narrow,
either. 1t is often said that the pur.
suit Of knowledge has a nobility of
its own. But what knowledge? No
knowledge is worth obtaining for its
own or any other sake, unless it is
or will probably be useful to man.

The Choice OF a Wife.

A German professor selects a wo-
man who can merely stew prunes-
not because stewing prunes and read
ing Proclus make a delightful har-
mony. but because he wants his
prunes stewed for him and chooses to
read Proclus by himself. A fulness OF
sympathy. a sharing Of life one with
another, is scarcely ever looked for
except in a narrow, conventional
sense. Men like to come home and
find a blazing fire and a smiling face
and an hour of relaxation. Their
serious thoughts and earnest aims in
life they keep on one side. And this
is the carrying out Of love and mar
riage almost everywhere in the world
and this the degrading of women by
both.-From One of Mrs. Browning's
Letters, 1916.

official was going over farm with the
owner when they came to a crawfishy
piece of land just back of the barn.

Il am inclined to think" remarked
the agriculturist, that this land is too
acid for productivity. We can de-
termine this in a moment"
Taking blue piece of paper from
his pocket he stopped and dipped the
paper In some of the soil water that
was standing in COW track. To the
owners establishment the blue paper
changed to a red color as soon as it
was immersed.
There" said the agrculturist, I'VE
have our proof. This is just piece
or litmus paper. For cents you can
buy similar piece at any drug store

sour land any more than children

Remedies for Toothache.

Toothache. that unwelcomed guest,
is something to be dreaded. Until
a dentist en- be consulted and the ex-
act cause of the disturbance located
and professionally treated, it is an ex-
cellent thing to moisten the finger and
after dipping it into some bicarbonate
of soda. rub it on the gum around the
sore tooth. 1t is also a relief to mix
a teaspoonful of this bicarbonate of
soda in half glass of warm water
and rinse the mouth with some every
little while, holding little in the
mouth for few seconds SO that it
penetrates all the crevices. The soda
being an alkali serves to neutralize
the acids in the mouth, which are
often the cause of toothache.

sugar is placed over an apparatus apex

Keep your blood clean as you keep your

1t is a matter of surprise that many peo-

Everyone knows that uncleanness breeds
disease; that those who do not keep their
bodies in a wholesome condition and who
dwell in filthy surroundings are the first to
fall when some epidemic of disease sweeps
the country. But foul blood is more dan
gerous to the individual than a foul body.
An unclean body is rather a passive than
an active hindrance to health. But unclean

ing place for disease.
1t is part of Natures plan for human
safety that in many cases where the blood
is impure or corrupt she sets sign on the
body in proof of the corrupt current that is
flowing through the veins. Scrofula with
its dishguring sores and scars, eczema with
its irritation, salt-rheum, tetter, erysipelas,
boils, pinples and other eruptions are only
the outward signs of the impurity of the
blood. But often in the earlier or simpler
stages of the blood's impurity there are no
outward signs of this condition; only dull
languid, sluggish feelings, which are COM

of the liver.

PLAY BY CYRUS BROWN

,"The Campers is to be the histri-
onic attempt of the Roosevelt club on
the boards of the Metropolitan opera
house next February. The play was Sc:
lected frofm a score offered by local
talent. The author is Cyrus Brown, well
known as a capable amateur actor.
!. The plot is confined to Minnesota,
and makes use of the romantic ele-
ments arising from the contact between
the primitive red man and the cultured
white. The prologue opens upon a
fort in northern Minnesota and in a
few bold strokes the idea is given to
the audience that the commander onco
had daughter who was stolen when a
child by the Indians. The first scene
opens upon camp Of Minneapolis So
ciety bellies who are entertaining a par
ty of English noblemen. The soldiers
in the nearby forts are pursuing some
Indians who are reported to be hostile.
The Indians are accompanied by their
women, one a beautiful girl. She comes
to the camp Of the whites and series
of complications follow, in which she
falls in love with the hero, who is sup
posed to be in love with someone else
She exchanges clothes with a white girl
who is in turn arrested by the soldiers
The curtaian goes down with every one
wondering where he or she is to escape
from the deluge Of difficulties.
In the final act there is a grand re-
union in Minneapolis and the true
lovers are readjusted and re-exchanged
to everyone IS satisfaction, and the In
dian maiden proves to be the com
mander's daughter.
