aerate Your Boiled Water.

Drinking water that has been boiled
is usually so fiat and tasteless that
people are apt to dislike it exceeding
ly, and even though the health au-
thorities order its use, many people
will run the risk of contracting ty-
phoid fever rather than take this pre-
caution. If boiled water is thoroughly
cooled and shaken up well in a bottle
half filed, it will become aerated and
have the sparkle and taste of freshly
drawn well water.-HOusekeep

A doctor in the British Medical
Journal makes the statement that the
most perfect teeth he has seen have
been in the mouths of the children Of
the very poor-children who never
possessed tooth brush. This physi-
clan states that these youngsters eat
more carbohydrates and less deter
gent material; also, they eat fewer
sweets, and, possibly, which is more
to the point, there is something in
their organizations which resists beth
sweets and starch.
