The first word-Good health and
good looks are dependent upon good
teeth.
hope no girl Is neglecting her
teeth these days OF splendid dentist
ry, as they are not only a very neces-
sary requisite to beauty. but have
never known anyone with poor teeth
who had good health.
People who have kept their teeth
clean from childhood have little usc
for q dentist. IL is perfectly aston
ishing to me that mothers Will neg
lect their children's teeth and ex-
pect them to show a mouthful or
pearls when they grow older. My
dentist tells me that mothers should
carefully wash their children's teeth
at least once a day with a saturate
solution OF boracic acid and at night
wash out their mouths with littlo
milk OF magnesia and water.
Early form the habit OF brushing
your teeth the last thing before slip
ping into bed at night, and II your
stomach is the least inclined to be
acid chew a small piece of magnesia,
allowing the saliva to go into every
part of your mouth.
The boracic acid wash is also good
for you to use. and occasionally use
half peroxide of hydrogen and half
water In equal parts as a cleanser.
This is good IL for any reason your
gums have become infiamed.
There are a number OF fine lotions
and tooth powder on the market, but
II you wish to make your own use 20
parts OF French chalk to one of cas-
tile soap and pinch OF bicarbonate

Be careful how you brush your
teeth. Use the brush up and down
as we'll as across and see that your
toothbrush is kept In closed case
when not In use. II is a tooth brush,

Disaster on land or sea usually
causes thousands OF people to lay
awake nights working out schemes
to prevent repetition of the calamity.
The inventions that have already
been inspired by the sinking OF the
steamship Titanic are SO numerous
THAT the clerks In the patent offices
in this country and Europe are kept
busy filing away drawings and de-
scriptions of life-saving appliances.
the most Of which are utterly imprac-
ticable.
Out OF the mass there will come a
few of great benefit, and experts
throughout the world are debating
among themselves as to whether or
not a ncy -sinkable lifeboat made OF
India rul er Is one OF these.
Such a boat has been invented by
resident of Asbury Park, N. j., and
his claim for II, which seem to be
justified by tests that have been had
with models, are that IL will not only
be unsuitable but that Il will with
stand more hard usage than a boat
of wood and will be less liable to
brsakage or puncture than steel or
iron boats. II is also claimed that the
boat will be lighter than boats of any
other materials.
The plan is to make the framework
'of hard rubber and cover 1t with
sheets of tough rubber cloth. The
frame Is made thick, and as the COW
ering is placed both inside and out,
the spaces between the frames form
air compartments which can be in
flated and thus given greater buoy

is expected he will leave the train

brought In an automobile to the fed

soft and need more care than those
OF yellowish cast. A girl with teeth
of this kind should use at least once

such annoyance is pretty general.
This can be obviated by securing O
piece OF fine wire two inches long and
passing it through the lacing about
half an inch from the end. The wire
should then be twisted around the
lacing as far as the cloth or leather
goes and then twisted together, the
ends being buried in the twist. Treat
each end this way and a metal tip is
given to the lacing that cannot come
off.

build the boats large enough to equip
them with motors.
The inflated sides will not only act
as air compartments, but will serve
as buffers in case of collision and

The express does not come to
Wheeling, but puts off the wheeling

wood, running a special from there
to this city. The express changes en-
gines at the same point and the en-
