prove economical, too. They have fig
ured 1t out that 1865 toothbrushes a
year at ten cents a brush represents
an outlay Of $3.50. Many persons
spend much more than that every
year for dental work, and 1t Is now
argued that a new toothbrush every
day will prevent damage being done
to the teeth, gums and mouth by
germs which, ono lodged In the bris-
ties Of a well-used toothbrush, are diff
flcult to get rid of eve with the aid
of powerful solutions.
All Of this and much more was ex-
planned during the recent annual meet
ing of the British Medical association
held at Birmingham. DR.. D. W. Car
malt and Prof. Herbert Small devoted
their addresses chiefly to the advan-
tages to be derived from an increas-
ed allowance of tooth brushes and a
corresponding reduction in dental
bills.
With the aid of diagrams, enlarge
lments of photographs taken under the
microscope and specimens Of disease
germs taken from tooth brushes, it
was shown that the precautions of
the average man to clean his tooth
brush, after using, are not sufficient.
Instead of paying rs cents or one dol
lar for a good brush and using 1t for
several months, 1t is wiser and cheap
er in the end, SO DR.. Carmalt declar-
ed, to buy cheaper brushes and use a
fresh one every day.
If you have neither the spare means
nor inclination for this course, how
ever. there are still methods of rid
ding the much-used tooth brush of the
germs which cling to every separate
hair. First, boil it for five minutes
before and after each use. Secondly,
rinse 1t In a one per cent. antiseptic
solution and allow 1t to stand, when
not in use, in a ten per cent. solution
OF formalin. Both of these drugs can
be obtained at any drug store. The
ordinary tooth powder and paste are
said to be Of little value in combat
ing germs. For while they cleanse
the teeth themselves, they leave the
gums and cavity of the mouth unben-

for rhymtng may duu ahoenoi
verse about paper being made
from wood and wood now being made
out Of old paper. An Ohio inventor,
oliver f. Barber, has perfected a ma
chine which does this. He takes old
newspapers and straw and puts them
through his machine and they emerge
in the shape Of artificial boards of any
desired length or thickness suitable
for building material, for railroad ties
or for furniture.
For many years the ever-increasing
demand for white paper for newspa-
per printing has been making seri-
GUS inroads on the available forests
of this country and Canada, and the
problem Of where to find timber to
meet the demand has been growing
more and more menacing. This also
applies to wood needed for building
construction, furniture and railroad
ties.
Turn about is fair play, SO today the
old newspapers are being converted
back again into wood which is claim
ed to be even more suitable for many
purposes than natural lumber. Spe-
cimens of the new artificial wood
that have already been made out Of
old newspapers and straw vary in
thickness from an eighth of an inch
upward, and range from narrow mold
ing to boards four feet wide and
twelve feet long. The inventor claims
that it can be i~mpregnated with GER
tain chemicals to render it fireproof,
can be made waterproof, can be per-
meated with any desired color during
the manufacture, or can be given a
highly polished surface finish. He
further asserts that it is susceptible
to all kinds of tool treatment, is free
from knots and shakes, with their
frequent waste, and it can also be
used in enclosing.

President Markham Gives Out Last
Statement; Now UP to

railroad by directing a letter to w. F.
Kramer, secretary of the Information
al Blacksmiths' Union, refusing to

had been requested,
The letter from the representatives
of the nine international unions involv-

munication was a reply was consider
ed by labor men here to be in the ma
ture of an ultimatum. The unions
asked that Markham meet the EN-

Continuing the letter warned that
unless the conference was granted by

New York, Sept. 5--About 100000
cats have been put to death in New
York so far this year, according to the
records of the Society for the Proven
ton of Cruelty to Animals. On the
accepted basis of nine lives to each
cat, this involves sacrifice of 1.SOO,-
900 feline lives. The average daily
slaughter is 1,4O0, and yet the cat
catchers employed by the society say
there is no perceptible diminution Of
the available supply. ,They are placed
in an immense tank into which illum-
mating gas is turned and each of the
nine lives of each feline is snuffed
out simultaneously. The society
operates nine wagons and automobile
ambulances in the collection of super
fuous eats in New York and Brooklyn.
