Shut Your Eyes.

Every member of the body has its
own use. Teeth are to bite with, ears
to hear with. brain to think with, etc.
One day little girl was being ques-
toned by her mother, who asked,
What are your eyes for?" ITO see
WITH" replied her small daughter.
The next question. What are your
eyelids for?" was rather difficult, and
the little girl pondered for some mill
utes. Then she replied, "'rhey must
have been given to us to keep our eyes
from seeing what they ought not to
see"
This was clever answer. The eye
lid Is. of course, to protect the eye
from dust and undue exposure. but it
can also be used to great advantage
in protecting this delicate organ from
looking upon things that are injurious.
Shut your eyes, children, from all
dust. from every little particle Of evil,
and let them shine only in the pres
ence Of good things.

The Care of the Teeth.

Children should be taught to use a
tooth brush and some good dentritice
after every meal. and especially before
going to bed Mt night. There are few
things more offensive to the sight than
foul, neglected mouth, and few
things easier to avoid. If proper care
Is given the teeth. One of the cheap
est and most effective dentrifices is
common table salt. dissolved in a little
water. and II used with a good brush
regularly. very little else will be need
ed There are many tooth soaps on
the market. at reasonable prices, and
many Of them are very good. but often
they are harmful. and 1t Is as we'll to

are tender and inclined to bleed easily,
select brush adapted to their tender
condition, and do not give them excess
siye friction Your dentist will tell
you a preparation for hardening the
gums without harming them. A great
many persons cannot use a hard
brush. A very good tooth soap Is
made Of prepared chalk six parts and
good, pure soap, one part, rubbed to-
gether thoroughly. Charcoal, powdered
pumice stone, cuttle-fish and similar
substances are not readily soluble In
the mouth. and often do more harm
than good. The teeth should be brush
ed downward from both sides Of the
upper teeth and upward from both
sides on the lower teeth, and the
mouth we'll rinsed with a simple soltl-
don Of water and powdered borax, or
water and table salt. A bit OF thread,

to the influence on the health of such

Again, there Is a notion that heart
