How the whole jury system in De-

practically turned upside down and
inside out, Is the story OF one out
cropping in the arledmanic graft
cases
The United States census bureau
in Washington was called upon 10
take a hand In the big task and some
CT the best engineers In the national
capital had to help In a mathematical
problem brought 70 light by careful
study OF the law governing the draw
ing OF jurors.
The bitter fight over change OF
venue in the graft cases, focused the
attention OF the public and OF the OFF,
Gals on the jury system as 1t was
never focused before.
When the jury commissioners fled
affidavits that In their opinion II would
be impossible to get recorders court
jury that would give a fair and i'm
partial verdict In the graft eases. they
laid bare the fact that something was
radically wrong with the system.
They gave no definite reason for the
affidavits, but the fact was that so out
OF the 600 names legally required for
the recorders courts annual supply
OF jurors, and then In the box. had
bcen suggested to the jury commits
sion by aldermen. some OF whom were
the very men charged with grating.
With IL men constituting a jury, the
ratio OF the aldermen's friends would
be one man for every jury.
Aroused to the necessity OF reno
waiting the jury system, and answer
ing q popular demand for better juries,
Prosecutor Shepherd. by virtue OF his
cffice, legal adviser to the jury COM
mission, held q conference with the
commissioners during the latter part
OF April. The cases had been ordered
tried here. A good jury offered the
biggest problem.
In his search for light on some way
TO get a good jury, Prosecutor Shep-
herd found. In the law governing the
drawing OF Jurors for the recorders
court, little technicality that had
10 be ironed out. The law requires
that the city be divided into Ave dis
tricts with jury com missioner for
each, and that the districts be as
nearly equal In territory and popula-
lion as possible. Under the system
then In vogue, the city was divided
by groups of wards. with three or four
wards for each commissioner. The
territorial distribution, and that Of
population, was far from equal. II
seemed impossible to make the FIVE
districts equal.
Prosecutor Shepherd went 10 Wash
ington on the matter. and consulted
the census bureau. A plan was evolv-
ed by which the city was to be divid-
Ell. for jury purposes. by districts, in
stead OF wards. Then came the prob
lem of making territory and popula-
ton balance. 1t required some clever
engineering, as the accompanying map
shows
Belle Isle, with it's hundreds of
acres. and Its lack Of population. made
Il necessary to attach that district to
small section OF dense population, to
strike balance.
The districts look like a jig-saw pug
zle. but here's the way the engineers

each tooth should be in its proper place and each tooth performing it's comes in contact with the correspond ing tooth, 1t is impossible to masti- cate the food properly. AS the large percentage of crooked teeth are caus- ed by the neglect of the temporary teeth, allowing them to become de- cayed. to have them extracted, for nature intended them to be removed, allowing the permanent teeth to come iii their proper places, the sooner the parents recognize the importance of the proper care of these teeth and instruct the child that it is just as important to clean the teeth 1t is to clean the face, the sooner this great destruction Of the teeth of children will cease.
 The cause of decay of the teeth and it's arrest:
 There is a prevailing thought among the laity. that teeth decay because of the poor construction of their teeth, but this is not true, for so-calfed sound teeth decay as readily as so- called brittle teeth. The enamel, teeth, fs\ composed of minute hexago- nal rods called Enamel Rods.' and held together bp Cementum. It de- pends upon the ooalescents Of these enamel rods as to the strength or the brittheness of the teeth.
 
 sponsible for the decay of the teeth. This microganism will attack any sur face Of the teeth, and immediately protects itself by forming a gelattnous covering about itself. and also adher- ing tenaciously to the enamel. After this protection has been established, these organisms secrete a fluid which in time dissolves the enamel rods and then enters the dentine, where the re- sfstance is slight, and a rapid under mining of the enamel takes place.
 If the tooth brush is brought into play and persistent use made of the same. we will arrest all decay of the teeth.
 Whenever you feel the bangs of tooth ache, remember that that tooth is aching because you were negligent and allowed the nicroganisms to go on 11nmolested, where by the persist ent use of a toothbrush would have avoided this excruciat ting pain and the subseQuent pain of paying some den tist for either filling or extracting the tooth.

CHILDREN'S TEETH
GOOD TEETH-GooD HEALTH

tion of dental deformities of poor children.
 Good teeth, clean teeth. and straight teeth means health-espeeia1ly for children. pr. Albert D. Persons of Chicago says at the age of six there are four permanent molars erupting in the paws of the child-two upper and two lower. These teeth take their places immediately back of the temporary teeth. They come in un- heralded by pain or the pushing out of a temporary booth as in the case of the remainder of the erupting perma- nent teeth. Many mothers think these four teeth coming at the age of six are temporary teeth, but they are per manent.
 Miss Theora Carter, founder Of the Society of Good Cheer, and the gfver of a million tooth brushes, in speak ing of these four permanent molars. says:
 Owing to the manner in which these first four permanent molars eruptp 1t is not to be wondered at that parents in general do not realize, that these alI-important teeth are to be used the remainder Of the cfd1d's life. but too often confuse them with the remain ing temporary teeths and when the child complains of tooth ache kn one Of the back teeth, the mother will try and comfort the child with the thought that the pain will soon leave, as the tooth is only a Baby tooth, and in a short time it will come out and a nice new tooth will take its place.
 I do not believe that the great de- struction of the teeth Of children has been impressed forcibfy enough upon the parents. They are under the dn- pression that the temporary teeth are of but little value, and should be left to themselves and nature will replace them with permanent teeth Little do they realize that by neglecting these Baby teeth the child will grow up with a grave facial deforrnity which will be a great handicap to their fu- ture success in the business and social world.
 It is not enough that we should have the complement of teeth, but

PADS AND FASHIONS

Finely ribbed silks and silks with a crinkly surface are most favored for afternoon costumes.
 Oil silk coats for motoring or yacht ing are seen in brown, green, blue and natural yellow.
 Parasols are being fashioned in lace and silk crepe with small silk roses dotted round the edge.
 The newest brassieres are of net and have sleeves attached. Sometimes these have washable shields. Striped crepe de chine and Chinese silk are among the best materials for travelling waists.
 The cuirasses or waist tunics of real Irish are still much used to give elab- oration to a. simple costume.
 The fluffy ma1ine neck ruff has been revived, and makes 8 most charming finish to a spring costume.
 Hose are sometimes worn to match the sash, the shoes in such cases be- ing tan as often as they are black.
 One of the prettiest of the new cot ton shirtwaists is made of plain white voile. with lowered voiIe trimmings.

Silk sweaters with straight lines, patch pockets and glass buttons are one Of the imported novelties of the season.
 There is a world of charm in the sash when properly draped and tied, and the variety of such drapings is endless.
 Coats for the best trotting costumes are on the habit model, and have en- bro1dered collars and cuffs for their only decoration
 Gowns for informal afternoon teas and garden parties are usually of cot ton crepe with allover embroidery, shadow lace and net.
 Saxe blue and sand color are great favorites among the silk mofres used for coats. Some of these coats are trimmed with velvet ribbon. Lingerie is more simple and flat than eVer-petticoats particularly are made up without foundations and have their f1ounces put on perfectly fiat.
