REMOVING IRON STAINS FROM
THE TEETH.

Polishing the teeth with powdered
chalk of cuttlcish bone made into a
paste with solution Of peroxide of hydro
gen has been recommended for removing
tinctuTC Of iron stains from the tcct1,
says The Pharmaceutical Era, but the
real effectiveness of such treatment is
doubtful. The blackening of the teeth and
tongue, which is liable to result from
the use of iron preparations, has been
supposed to be due to the formation Of
iron tannate from fannie acid Of the food
or from the sulphur in carious teeth
or in tartar. To avoid this it is advisable
to take them through a glass tube and i'm
mediately afterwards brush the teeth.
The free acid in the tineture of ferric
chlorid or the acidity of the chloride
itself will destroy the enamel ever if di-
luted with eight parts of water. Some au-
thOrities rccOmend that a patient who is
required to take the t~incture should be
directed to dilute the liquid, to imbibe it
through a tube, and to clean the teeth
Immediately after taking the medicine
with a weak alkaline solution. 1t is a
very difficult task to remove the stains
without injury to the enamel of the
teeth.

When we say that a man or a thing

mean that in some particular or particu
lars it represents a departure from some
~pre-existing standard of the customary
Which makes it rather absurd for any
one to say that men and women are
queer creatures, since the things which
constitute their quecerness NAV repre-

Tax the case of that delegation of
Washington suffragettcs who met their
marching sisters some miles out Of the
city and demanded that they change
their clothes before appearing on the
street, because in their outward appear
ance they were a disgrace to the
cause"
Was that a queer thing to do? Not
at all. In our country there must be
thousands of people who would do things
like that, and we have the right to look
for it. Not queer, but simply absurd.
The Herald is not quite sure that il
understands the purpose of that remark
able pilgrimage of the marching women
to Washington. 1t has assumed. how
ever, that those honest souls were bent
upon proving to the world that they
were in earnest, ready TO do and suffer
great things for the cause of women suf-
frage. They also intended to advertise
their plea by calling public attention to
1t in this spectacular way.
How absurd, therefore, to ask them
to walk through the streets of Washing

would express it-particularly as they
had already made hat long weary iuor-
ney through New Jersey, PENNSYLVANIA.
Delaware and Maryland. If they had
intended to impress the capital, why lose
the effect of the worn shoes, the be-
dragged skirts, and the wcather-stained
cloaks? Well dressed women are com
mon enough in the streets of Washington
on any moderately fine day, but a rain
stained, weather beaten, determined
army of marching women, devoted to
what they believed to be a great cause.
must have been a thing to impress the
people of the capital city.

needed the demand of the Washington
suffragettes or not. but it hopes not.

ashamed to wear EN-?
