To Save Your Teeth.

II teeth are to have only one clean
ing in the twenty-fcur hours the right
time to do it is at night. Obviously
In leaving the debris OF food In ones
mouth all the night and then remov.
ing 1t in the morning. The greater
part Of tooth destru 'tion occurs at
night, not only because people do not
clean their teeth at the right time, but
also because no saliva is secreted in
the sleeping hours. and therefore the
acid matter produced by bacteria is
not neutralized and diluted as it is In
the daytime. but is free to wear away

Do not kick the tables legs;
Don't beat unoffending eggs.
Do not mischievously try
To poke things in n needles eye.
Nor guilty be OF such fault
As to pinch the table salt
Do not pull 4 teapots nose:
Don't ask bread what time It rose.
Little pitchers ears don't tweak
Nor smack the apples rosy cheek.
But remember 1t Is right
To all things to be polite.
Let the hay scales have their weigh.
Wish the calendar good day.
Kiss the clock upon Its face.
Return the armchairs fond embrace.
Greet the Sieve In merry strain.
Ask the window hows its pane.

Toward your playmates then you'll find
