are reeking with pollution and infested with
live things.
Now, we return to our teeth With silk
thread drawn between the grinders, you can
remove every particle of food that remains
after you have rinsed your mouth. By using
lube-warm water in winter, and the natural
sort In summer, you can expel nearly all OF
te particles which cling to the teeth in eating.
Salt water is to be particularly recommended.
The silk thread does not gouge the tooth, as
the wooden pick does. Nowadays, the up-to-
date drug store carries dental silk In stock:
keep yourself supplied with this, if possible,
for it is specially prepared for the purpose.
Don't make the same tooth brush last too long.
When it becomes defective, or offensive, throw
it away. You are taking care of y0ur teeth,
not of the brush.
When your mouth gives you trouble, consult
a dentist And if you can ascertain which
is the best one, consult him. Nothing could
be more disastrous than to put your teeth,
and your life, in the power of dentist who
does not understand his business. Some awful
tragedies have happened in the dental chair,
due to the ignorance, or bad Judgment, of
the operator.
There is something about the pain, INSOFAR
able from tooth work, that tends to lntlmldate
the bravest For this reason, many persons
postpone the matter until it is too late. Don't
make this mistake. When you discover that
decay has set up in your mouth, go and have
your fangs treated.
And some time when you want to enjoy
night of sweet repose, in the good old sum-
mer-time, select the house that has she'd
room, on the south side, with feather bed
in it, which has been out summing, the greater
part Of this blazing hot summer day. By the
time you have settled yourself comfortably
in said feather bed you and all the inhabitants
under you, will have 'real" reposeful time.

That Cess-po0l---The Roman
Catholic Confessional.
CONCLUDED FROM PAGE NINE.

by all good people; and in this they are
upheld by many so-called Christians. Oh,
that those who believe all that the Catholic
priesthood say about me could know them as
[ do! Where did I inherit all the evil they
accuse me of, but from system born in hell
nurtured in hell Where did [ learn so much
of the sins against the decalogue? Tn the
sacred precincts of the Confessional Where
were my ears polluted by vile, filthy insinua-
tons? In the Confessional Who instructed
me as to the sins of impurity, and defined to
me the sins against nature? The priest, in
the sacred precincts of the Confessional.
"Who was it that, on one occasion, asked
whether, when lzneeling before the image Of
Christ on the cross [ was tempted with
thoughts Of RIGHTEOUSNESS III regard to our
Lord? Who? The debauched and debased
priest, Father Hayes, III the Confessional of
the Convent in Amos Court, Bristol. Who
was it told me there was nothing unusual in
a priest having illicit intercourse with women,
and that often it waathe only way by which
a priest could keep from open scandal; that
the church dealt leniently with such extreme
cases; and that by a woman's submitting her
self to priest under such circumstances, she
was doing that which would find favor in
the eyes of God? Who told me this? The
holy confessor, in the sacred precincts of the
Confessional of the Convent, in Bristol, one
Saturday afternoon when he was sitting there
in state of intoxication.
"Who was it ruined my life and made me
what | was in the convent! Father Egan
who today, restored to the bosom Of the Holy
Mother Church, shielded under her protec-
ton, celebrates mass, forgives sins, buries the
dead, receives the homage alike of Catholic
md Protestant.

EDITORIAL NOTES
BY j. I'd. WAITS ON

BY j. ID. WATSON
q EERNOR FOSS has been compelled to
~ send more troops to Lawrence, Mass, in
~ effort to check violence.
Last week rioting broke loose again-street
cars were stoned and passengers injured-the
cars were stopped and badly damaged heads
were cracked and faces beat up-one woman
was killed by stray bullet.
Governor Foss is using every means that
man could use to bring about peace-he has
implored the strikers to return to work for
thirty days, while he tried to bring about
terms with the mill-oWners-h has implored
the mill-owners to pay their employees S.
hour wages for 81 hours work until he can
go over the matter with them, and bring about
an adjustment-but so far he has met with
failure and has been forced to increase the
force Of soldiers to preserve order.
And all of this in the country that the
Payne-Aldrich tariff makes the workingmans
paradise -all of this in New England, the
home of Senator Lodge, as we'll as the most
favored section under the Payne-Aldrich law
all of this under the Payne Aldrich tariff
law which the standpatters tell us was devised
to protect the workngman in high wages and
the American standard of living-the law that
creates work, wages and prosperity for the
labOrlng man.
The Democratic caucus has decided not to
pass an appropriation bill for public build
lngs-the Democratic caucus has refused to
grant an appropriation Of $2400O,O0O for two
modern battleships to be built, but the Demo
cratic caucus did not refuse to let go by
grab pension bill that will cost the taxpayers
$75,000000 per year if it becomes a law.
The people are tired of Congress appro-
prating millions Of dollars each year for bat
tleships-they are tired of listening to the
war talk that the jingoes get up every time
Congress meets-they know it is all done for
the benefit Of the Steel Trust, and for nothing
more.
The people know what the appropriation
for public buildings has gotten to be-they
know that it is simply 'pork barrel' measure
1t is the system under which each fellow let's
the other fellow take a grab at the peoples
money in return for being given a grab
himself.
But the Democratic caucus would have
impressed the people of the party's sincerity
If the caucus had been more consistent in the
practice Of economy.
10 let 60 by measure that offers $75OOO,-
600 to the bounty jumpers and deserters of the
Civil War for the sake of trying to win the
old soldier vote, cannot be hidden by refusing
to make an appropriation for public buildings
or battleships
The people may approve the action of the
democratic caucus In cutting out these two
