Poor Children Have Best Teeth,

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 a 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 both
sweets and starch.

elders imagined. He was but one of the
ubiquitous boys who always appear on
the scene when there is excitement af. OF
This lads thoughtful mother had put
up for him a lunch. We have an insight
into his character from the simple fact
that he had been too engrossed in the
teaching of Jesus TO think of his food
and when a boy is SO interested in any
thing that he forgets to eat his Interest
may be counted real indeed.
The end of the day found this lad still
in possession of his forgotten lunch. anu
thus Andrew. who had a genius for get
ting close 20 people, found him and
brought him to the Masters attention.
Surely Andrew had no thought OF a
miracle. The closest to a miracle he saw
in the occasion was the fact that amid
all these hungry people ii was boy
who had saved his food. That what was
a meal for small boy should become "A
