BY means Of this remarkable inven-
ton, owned by ms, known as the
"Alveolar Method" we are able to re-
store missing teeth and place them In
the jaws so perfectly that no one. not
even yourself, could tell where natures
teeth left off and the Alveolar teeth
began.
We follow natures plan and set eact

II is a very difficult matter to explain
the Alveolar Method of restoring mis-.
sing teeth without the use of plates or
ordinary bridge work at long range or
in the. brief space of a newspaper ad-
vertisement. II people would only come
to our offices and talk with us they
would soon be convinced that we could
do all that we claim we can do. We are
going to ask you to read the letter Of

THE PRESIDENT ON HIS
BEVERLY PLAYGROUND
Confined from Page Nine.)
RenuhIicanism in the South.

Missouri, one of the most populous
states OF the Union, is now almost he
publican. II has voted twice for a
Republican President but by only very
narrow margins. The present Governor
is a Republican, but is elected for four
years Next year in Missouri there will
be battle royal for congressman and
for tine election of United States Sen
ator to succeed William Warner, Re-
publican. who came in On the Roosevelt
landslide of 1904. Ten of the sixteen
Representatives in the House from Mis-
souri, now are Democrats and the mar
gins are SO small in some of the districts
that both parties VIII make very deter
mined campaigns next year both to holu
what they have and to make some gains.
Elk Governor Joseph W. Folk, Democrat,
is already out for the seat of William
Warner. So there is every reason why
the President should help the Missouri
Republicans along with census patron
age.
Kentucky has a Republican governor,
because of Democratic discussions III
that state. OF the delegation of eleven
Representative in the House, three are
Republicans. Tennessee is the only
state of the four mentioned, that elects
a governor next year. Two of its ter
Representative are Republicans. North
Carolina has three Republican Represen
tatives, ont of delegation of ten. And
while it may be very improbable that
either Kentucky, or Tennessee, or North
Carolina will vote for a Republican fol-
President in 1912, it is not unlikely
that Missouri viii do so and it is not
unlikely that these southern states may
come close to having deciding voice
as to the complexion of the next House
Of Representatives. 1t is expected that
the Republicans will lose several seats
in the West and unless they hold al
they have in the East they may come
dangerously near losing control. Blu
if Missouri sends six Republicans o.
more and North Carolina three and Ken
lucky three and Tennessee two, which
makes fourteen seats where only few
years ago the Republicans had but foul
seats from those four states, the Demo

HOW WIRE is DRAWN.
Securing Length and Firmness-Pre'
venting Brittleness.

From the Chicago Tribune.
Bars of metal four inches square are
heated and passed while hot and plastic
through rapidly revolving rolls, reducing
them to wire rods which vary from one
quarter of an inch to an inch or more
in diameter, depending upon the finished
size of wire wanted.
These rods, which are formed into coils
as they pass through the rolls, are dipped
in acid baths to remove loose scale and
provide a lubricant for drawing. Draw
ing consists of pulling rods while cold
through holes of gradually decreasing
diameter drilled in steel plates. During
this process the particles of metal become
elongated and strained. making the wire
harder and more brittle. To restore it to
proper temper it is necessary TO heat
or anneal it.
When a fine diameter is required there
must be repeated annealings and draw
ings. This may be done until the bar.
which originally was four inches square
and four feet long. becomes reduced to a
diameter of a single thousandth of an
inch and extended 1900 miles in length.
Before so fine size is reached the wire
will cut into the steel of the die plate,
so the usual die plates must be discard
ed and the drawing continued through
holes drilled in diamonds, the diameter
of these diamond dies decreasing by frac-
t1OnaI parts or q InOEDdnuln VI all lifcll
This wire affords a striking illustration
of material made more valuable by the
application of labor.
From the time the bar of metal enters
the furnace nothing is added to 1t. All
the work Is done with one article, which
is passed through rolls and drawn
through die plates until finished. The
wire Is made from an extra high grade
of steel worth in the bar cents pound,
which is much above the price of the
greater bulk of steel. In the finished
wire the value is increased from cents
to $50 a pound.
Wire for fencing and the common
grades of so-called market wire do not
involve a high labor cost and sell at a
small advance above the price of the
metal bar Other wires drawn for more
exacting purposes sell at higher prices.
Wire one one-thousandth of an inch in
diameter is of course exceptional. being
prepared for delicate electrical tests of
such Importance that 1t is deemed adj
visable to go to great expense to make it
exactly the required size.

ventor is working at The wings he pro-
poses are formed by aeroplanes made
after the Wright brothers flying machine.
The trains are trolley style, and the aero
planes are above each other.
The lifting power of an aeroplane Is
enormous, so that when the car gets up
speed the aeroplane assumes part of
the load. The inventor figures when the
train gets to going, say, $50 miles an hour,
the train will weigh practically nothing.
Whether the New York inventor Is sue
cessful or not, 1t may be safely predicted
that in the near future men will travel
by rail 100 to 200 miles an hour.
Which leads one to ask, Where do all
such modern inventions lead?
Is the world really better because of the
multiplication of appliances for greater
speed in transportation, greater facility in
manufacturing, larger saving in human
labor?
Each saving In human labor means
that much leisure for human improve
ment Every increase in the facilities for
quick transportation and the dissemination
of intelligence means the bringing of the
worlds peoples closer together and the
fostering of human brotherhood.

Each train weighs 1,250,O00 pounds.
Each train carries 70 passengers, who

as its passengers. And it costs each pas

New Orleans, La, Oct. S0--"The
plan for a deep waterway is an ac
complished fact. all we need now is
action" declared w. X Kayanagh
president of the Lakes-to-the-Guli
Deep Water Ways Association, in his
address at the opening of its conven
tion today The history of the Mis-
sissippi river has been a story of in
action and of niggardly appropriations
which have been fought through the
rivers and harbors committe through
congress without rhyme or reason,
said the speaker "The whole valley is
sick with the congestion of its trans
portation system, and only this deep
waterway can relieve it. The people
of the Mississippi valley must have de
finite assurance that this carrier is to
be completed at a certain date, and
that date must not be much more re
mote than the completion of the Pana-
ma canal"
Mr. Kavanagh said that the people
looked to President Taft for the exc
cution of the great task. He referred
to the executives trip down the river,
saying
"tIe has seen the richest farm lands
in the world crumbing from its banks,
dissolying in its waters, he has seen
levees that protect $4,000 square miles
of this rich alluvial threatened by
these caving banks; he has seen the
remains of uncompleted revetments
that have been torn away by the river
because a neglectful Congress has not
provided for their completion and he
has seen a thousand mile channel un-
burdened by single modern vessel,
the docks Of its many cities unmarked
by a single installation of modern ter
minal apparatus.
There was a day when the Missis-
sippi was considered an untamable
stream. which shifted its channel and
devoured its banks at will Today we
are able to show the President Of the
United States two remarkable chan
ges: one Of these is a river which, in
its most difficult and NOSE readily
shifting parts. has been bound down
by the engineers to a fixed channel,
with permanent banks; that has been
forced to scour its own beds, and per
nit the passing Of deeper ships.
The other is modern garden Of
ana worth rom SlOO to 5000 an acre
capable Of producing in crops every
year enough money to pay many times
over the entire cost Of producing a
l4-loot channel from Chicago TO New
Orleans. and this soil protected Tom
waste only by those engineering de-
vices which have held the river in its
fixed bed which make the deep water
way
we have shown him this, and now
we are ready to ask him to extend
the.revetments which do this work in
to every bend on the Mississippi and
to carry this deep waterway and the
protection to farm lands adjacent to it
