DECAY OF THE TEETH.
The Three Principal Causes-Food That
Is Cleansing in Effect.

OF all physical ailments to which the
human race is subject decay of the teeth
is perhaps the most general and wide
spread. This is true at least of modern
times, for examination of ancient skulls
has shown that although the ancients
suffered from decaying teeth they did
not suffer to such an extent as we do to-
day. The examination of the school
children of the present day betrays an
appalling state of affairs i'll this regard.
We know that the tooth itself is Gov
cred with a shield of enamel which is
intended to remain intact and preserve
the dentine. or real tooth material, from
the assaults of harmful germs formed in
the mouth principally by reason of the
Judgment of particles of food between
the teeth or in small depressions and
dents. Certain kinds of food, especially
sugars and starchy foods, if allowed to
remain in contact with the teeth set up
an acid fermentation, during which the
bacteria which are produced literally
feed upon the teeth, first eating away
the enamel and when that is gone bur-
rowing down into the dentine until the
pulp of the tooth is exposed. AS soon
as they reach the nerve of the tooth a
terrible toothache announces the fact
There are three causes behind all this
trouble-improper food, wrong ways of
eating and lack of cleanliness. The mis-
take Oh serving 100 uluCu overlooked.
soft food is responsible for much of the
trouble, and this is just as true for little
children as it is for adults. The teeth
were giten us to bite with and to chew
with. and if they are defrauded of their
natural work they become unhealthy.
In addition to this, certain articles of
food, sukh as raw apples and nuts. which
call for mastication before swallowing,
are absolutely cleansing in their effect
upon tlA teeth. Mechanically they re-
move masses of soft decomposing ma

turn helps the growth of the good germs
which ate needed to fight the bad ones
for it should be remembered when it is
said that the mouth is always full of
bacteria that the good germs are MAX
ing a brave fight there as well as every
where else in the body.
Finally tooth brush should be the
first birthday present, and its regular
and persistent use should be made a
most important part of the child's early
training. A simple alkaline toothwash
or cream should be used once n day. and
the dentist should be consulted at regu-
lar intervals, because there is no matter
in which. prevention is 50 surely better
than cure as in the care of the teeth

FADS AND FASHIONS.

1t is an almost forgotten fact that
there are babies in Paris, and it is
usually overlooked that Paris makes
fashions for its babies. The ottoman
silk baby cap is the favored one, and
pale blue and rose are the accepted col
ors. A lace frill is added round the
edge to make them becoming to the wee
faces.
The trend of fashion is pretty we'll as
sured for the first part of the coming
year-supple fabrics, extravaganza braids
and gallons, fringeS, tassels, buttons,
embroideries (both of silks and jewels,
and heavy pronounced laces and nets.

Linens have improved vastly in color
since their reign began several years
ago. In the mast no one looked for as
good deep color in cottons or linens as in
silks and woods, but some of the linens
brought in for the coming spring are of
surprising luster. Among them one finds
catawba, deep rose. dull blues and the
grays prominent. All the shades of
purple, as matter of fact, are out in
the linens-the layenders, violets, etc.

So many people are looking forward 70
cement construction as the solution OF
the problem of economy as well as of
the problem of safety against fire that
the recent widely published announce
ment of a combination of the cement
mills of the country caused something
approaching CONSERVATION. The Inn
provement Bulletin, evidently anxious to
allay alarm, essays the following ex-
plantations:
What has happened has been Joint ar
rangement for the use of certain patents in
connection with a fuel blower, whereby all
mills interested use the patents on the
same terms. So far from being a combina-
ton, it Is distinctly the other way, and
amounts to the same arrangement as when
number of concerns use a device under
royalty arrangement, though in this case
the royalty feature is not present. The
action will serve to steady and equalize
prices Of cement, which have been exceed
lngy erratic during the period of the open
ing of Il number of new mills, and the wider
development of older ones.
The first part of the Bulletins para
graph would have been more reassuring
without the last part. Many of those
who were most disquieted by fears of
a combination will form their concu-
sions not by what any publication as
serts, but by what they deduce from
observations of the course of the mar
ket.
