House Cleaning Time.

This sudden plunge into Summertime has
aroused the housewife into quick action for
house cleaning. A hundred and one things
press her for immediate attention. If any
papering is contemplated now Is the
convenient time to do it. while the rooms
are in disorder anyhow. Don't buy ex-
pensive paper; it doesn't pay. You tire OF
it too quickly and you hate to tear it off be-
cause you have paid so much for it. Come
and see our pretty papers at six, seven and
eight cents. Ifyou don't like them don'i
buv them. IN. BEARD.

THE CHURCH AND PUBLIC
HEALTH.

We are accustomed to estimate
the state of Christianity by the
number OF church members and
not by the figures of the bureau
OF vital statistics. Can 1t be that
community where the death
rate is suspiciously high is at
the same time one In which
Christianity languishes? The af-
flictions of humanity, which are
largely preventable, make 1t un-
necessarily difficult for Chris
tianity TO fulfill Its spiritual re
sponsibilities to the world. Sin
gle handed. even with all its
abundant resources, she church
could not adequately sweep these
obstacles from its path, but gov
eminent, clothed with authority
of the whole people. If support
ed by the cooperation of the
church. can wrestle successfully
with the problem Thus. al
though Christianity has eStab-
lished its hospitals, its asylums,
homes and dispensaries and its
children minister to the sick and
suffering, there remains a null
titude OF accidents and diseases
with which she is as yet little
acquainted and over which she
is not sufficiently exercising her
self. The church must now
learn to discern the missionary
in the doctor, the sanitary en-
gfneer and the health official,
and these In turn will learn to
appreciate the spiritual function
Of an organization that inter
prets Christianity by concern for
the health of It's community.

HEALTH HINT FOR TODAY.
Take Care Of the Teeth.

Unsound teeth are conveyors
OF the germs Of disease. In Val
paraiso, Ind, there was an cpl
demic of scarlet fever that de-
fed the city authorities. Month
after month, despite the strictest
quarantine. the plague went on
! among the children. Finally, by
a course of elimination, the au-
thorities decided that the infec-
ton was being carried In the
mouths OF the children. Every
child who entered school was ex-
amined, and its teeth were put In
good condition. Within few
weeks there was no scarlet fe-
yer. Examinations made In Chi
cago by the board Of health show
that the heterogeneous that
produce scarlet fever, diphtheria
and all other children's diseases
can be found in the cavities of
decayed teeth fully FIVE weeks
after the child has been declared
cured. The faithful use of the
toothbrush should be made
part of the school requirements
In all parts Of the country, as It
is now in some classes IN Massa
chusetts, and all parents should
be made to understand that den
tai care is as necessary as medi
cal attention for their children
and that money spent on the one
will often be saved on the other.
