AS TO CLEAN MOUTHS.

Physicians find that a large portion of the school children need to have their tonsils and adenoids removed Nearly all the infections which chii- dren have. and most of those which adults have, get in through the mouth and nose.
 Tonsils and adenoids are put in tn ? nose. mouth and throat because they are needed To keep infections from get ting into the blood, brain, lungs or other tissues. where they can do more harm than in the tonsils.
 Healthy tonsils and adenoids should not be removed. Those that are en- larged and swollen should be. They are like a filter that is dirty and the water which passes through IS worse infected than it was at first. Not one tenth of the tonsils are removed which should be removed.
 Diphtheria infection may locate on the gums, the nose or the tonsils. or m any one of several places. Diphther'a located on previously healthy tonsils requires less antitoXin, is more easily cured than diphtheria anywhere else. I tect the tissues which lie beyond. The point is that We should go back of the tonsils and thus try to keep them heal thy.
 If the mouth nose, teeth and fold of the tonsils are kept clean the problem is solved The tonsils would not en- large The teeth should be picked. washed and brushed several times each day Periodically a dentist should give them a more thorough cleaning. The mouth and tongue should be washed as frequently and as thoroughly as the hands. Periodically physician should clean the tonsil crypts. There are those who systematically wash the nose.
 The human mouth is fearfully dirty. The wonder is that any tonsils escape enlarging. Is there any reason why we should have clean hands and faces and dirty mouths?
