viii Build Mill.

Messrs. S. K. Breeding and E.
G. Mclaughlin have purchased
four acres of land, about one mile
from town, and will Immediately
start the erection there Of a mod
.ern mill, for the grinding of corn
and all other grains.
The building to be completed
by the last Of October, will be
about forty by fifteen feet, and
only most modern machinery al
ready ordered will be installed.
This is long needed enterprise in
Henderson County, and should
be of the greatest benefit to all
the farmers of this section. It is
a long way to Biltmore, where all
the wheat of the county is now
taken to be ground into -four, and
these gentlemen are to be con-
graduated upon their progressive
spirit in giving the farmers an OPP
portunity to patronize a home in
duStry such as this.

have cut the price on the enorm-

store to the very bottom. The
recent advertisement which APP
peared in the Hustler, a double

newspaper space ever utilized by
any merchant In Hendersonville
at one time, while the big post

Of the Hustler Press, where the
largest in size and In quantity

print shop.
The posters were all printed
within twenty-four hours after
the copy was received feat
which would have been utterly
impossible without the aid Of the
wonderful Mergenthaler Limo
type recently installed in the Of
flee. But with the modern, labor
saving machinery of the Hustler
Company, it wasn't so much Of a
job after all, and many such could
have been handled without so
very much Inconvenience.

PRESERVATION OF TIE
TEETH OF SHOOL
CHILDREN.

Rules recommended by the
School Childen's Committee of the
British Dental Association and
circulated for the information of
managers and teachers Of national
schools in Ireland:
Without good teeth there can
not be good mastication.
Without thorough mastication
there cannot be perfect digestion,
and poor health results.
Hence the paramount impor-
tarEe of sound teeth.
Clean teeth do not decay.
The importance of a sound first
set of teeth is as great to the child
as a sound second set is to the a.
dult.
Children should be taught to
use the toothbrush early.
Food left on the teeth ferments,
and the acid formed produces de-
cay.
Decay leads in time to pain and
total destruction of the tooth.
The substance of the following
rules should therefore be impress
ed constantly upon all children:
/. The teeth should be cleaned
at least once daily.
2. The best time to clean the
teeth is after the last meal.
3. A small toothbrush with
stiff bristles should be used brush
inside and outside, and in between
ing up and down and across, and
the teeth.
4. A simple tooth powder, or a
little soap, and some preeipitated
chalk taken up on the brush may
be used if the teeth are dirty or
stained.
5. 1t is a good practice to rinse
the mouth out after every meal.
6. All rough usage of the
teeth, such as cracking nuts, bit
ing thread, cts, should be avoided
but the proper use of the teeth In
chewing is good for them.
When decay occurs it should be
attended to long before any pain
results. 1t is stopping of a small
cavity that is of greatest service.

ToxAwAY SCHEDULE MIXED

Passenger Train No. 5 Runs as
Heretofore This Morning
Large Crowds.
According to orders issued
from headquarters last week
trains number 5 and 6 on the Tox-
away division would be discon-
tinued this morning, but such was
not the case. Passenger train No.
5 arrived on the old schedule time
with a crowded number of pas
sengers.
It waS'a surprise to the local Of
fcials at the depot and as. there
were no orders to allow such a
passenger train to continue into
Asheville it was necessary to run
the train as a second section to No.
50, freight train.
The fact, that Lake Toxaway no
tel will not close for the season un-
til the 18th of this month and that
there are a great many visitors in
the town Of Brevard, may cause
the order for the discontinuing of
the trains to be revoked, for a
short length of time.
Hendersonville people as well
as those along the line are anxious
that this schedule may remain to
accommodate the tourists who
have by no means left the noun
tains for the season.
