may prevent his making speeches In

1t requests Mr.. La Follette's friends
in those states to make campaign
for him. II they cannot do It in any
other way. by instructing delegates for
the progressive principles in general
which the senator represents.
The statement concludes:
Though Senator La Toilette finds
his plans interfered with by his tenn.

presented to the national Republican
convention and delegates will make
an aggressive contest for his nomina-

overwhelming majority of progressive
Republican members of both houses Of
congress. progressives in Illinois must
unite to send Roosevelt delegates to

BAD TEETH AND EDUCATION
Children With Decayed Teeth Go
Through School More Slowly Than
Those With Good Ones.

Some years ago I was skeptical
about the importance of children's
teeth, and when was told by dentists
that it was necessary that school
children should have their teeth exam
ined and cared for, I said: We'll. here
Is another fad" / had been a school
principal for some years, and knew
what It was to have reformers Of va
rious sorts to urge their fads upon me,
wanting me to carry them out. But the
pressure became strong and finally
determined to look into the matter.
How important is 1t to have children's
teeth cared for; that is, children be-
tween the ages Of six and twelve?
Have defective teeth any connection
with school work? Is there any rea-
son why the school should concern
themselves with this matter? I want
ed to establish the facts on basis
large enough to admit Of no further
questioning. After 1 became connect
ed with the Russell Sage Foundation I
set about securing the school records
of as many children as possible, to-
gether with records Of their teeth, In
order to ascertain facts which should
throw light on this subject.
One of the questions to which I
sought an answer was this: What IL
the difference in the school progress
of children who have good teeth and
those who have bad teeth? What is
the difference, II any. in the scholar
ship Of these children. in their height.
and In their weight? did not be-
lieve that there were any appreciable
differences in solid, material facts Of
this kind, but made some surprising
discoveries. I discovered that chill
dren take, on the average. half a year
longer to go through school II their
teeth are out of order. Children
who have decayed teeth go through
school more slowly than children whe
have good teeth.
An investigation made by DR.. r.
Burke showed that children with de-
cayed teeth are shorter; that they are
about as tall as children seven months
younger who have good teeth. A sim
liar difference was found in respect
to weight.
Now, what Is the reason for thisi
What is the connection between de
cayed teeth and scholarship, height
and weight? The answer is this:
Practically all children who have bad
teeth have teeth that are more Of
less sensitive most OF the time. They
chew their food less thoroughly; they
do not eat as much; hence they d.
not grow as well as children with nor
NAL teeth Having sensitive teeth es
tablishes the boiling habit. which per
sists through life.

CARE WOULD SAVE TEETH
A Word to Prospective Mothers and
Nurses-Popular FalIaey 10
pisproved.

Twenty-ffve years ago pregnant
women expected to sufter more or less
from toothache and even to lose some
Of their teeth during this period. In
fact there are physicians today 80
ignorant Of modern methods Of oral
hygiene that they ignore all proper IN
structions on this subject 20 their pa
tents and few trained nurses have
any Intelligent knowledge Of their du-
ties or opportunities In respect to the
mouth conditions Of their patients. But
thanks to thorough and persistent eff
forts Of dental scientists, It need no
longr be said among intelligent peo-
pie that every baby means the loss Of
at least one Of the mothers teeth.
There can be no question but the
mothers teeth are more liable to de-
cay during the pregnant period than
at any other time; but 1t is not be-
cause of the old theory that the lime
salts IN the mothers teeth were need
ed to make the new teeth for the baby.
Teeth do not decay from their inter.
nal or nourishing sources, as the how-
| e. which withers and dies when
the sap is dried up or stopped; de-
cay Of the teeth Is an external proc
ess resulting wholly from outside
causes. It begins and proceeds from
the exposed surfaces Of the teeth grad
ually penetrating the hard calcified
tooth substance until 1t reaches the
pulp which is the vital organ from
which 1t receives all its nourishment
Even when the pulp is exposed, 1t may
be destroyed and removed, and al
though the remainder Of the tooth hai
all Of its natural nourishment cut OF
If the decay be stopped. as MAJ
readily be done by modern dental art
the tooth still remains healthy and
useful organ for many years. In fact
