Use Only BOILED WATER
TO Clean Your TEETH

and pits where the enamel is invaginated
accounts for such places having a higher per
Centage of decay than others more accessible
to the scrubbing of the tooth brush. And the
difficulty is increased by the ineffectiveness
of the many combinations of powdered chalk
and soap commonly used.
That such a method is still used is due to
tradition and thoughtlessness One has only
to use one of these preparations for cleansing
a greasy dinner plate, sOiled by the same
agency as the mouth, but infinitely easier to
clean, to realize the uselessness of the COM
bination for a cavity Astounding with surfaces
impossible to scrub, as does the mouth. Even
on accessible surfaces the immediate good
obtained by such abrasive cleansing negli-
gible though it be, is paid for dearly in the
future, as the daily loss of protective covering,
where owing to its thinness or softness the
enamel is rubbed away, results in the forma-
ton of sensitive areas, each demanding treat
ment for comforts sake
The damage is not confined to the teeth as
the gums resenting the stimulus of the daily
securing, after a time recede, leaving the neck
of the tooth bare. Also, the patients tendency
to deposit saliyary calculus or tartar upon the
teeth is increased as the average patient
rarely rinses the mouth free from the chalky
matter of the powder or paste, and this in
creases by chemical attraction the rate of the
deposit and itself goes to form it.

STFHE water you use to clean your teeth
should FIRST be sterilized by boiling if
~ you would protect your teeth from one
Serious danger of infection.
One may be excused for wondering why
the use of steriized water for cleansing the
mouth has not been more generally insisted
upon. since few would use unsterilized water
for making hypodermic injection, says DR..
Percy Furnivall, an English dental surgeon.
1t appears reasonable to assume that if sup
puration can be induced by infective hypoder-
mic solutions the same Will happen if in
fective water is scrubbed on gums OF weak
resistance, only the process OF breaking down
of the gum in the latter case takes a much
longer time to bring about One has only to
examine the condition of the average cistern,
usually under the roof and badly covered, or
well water which may have drained through
from an adjacent cesspool, to admit the need
of increased care In preventing infection OF
the mouth.
Ideal care of the teeth and mouth then,
demands that the necessary water should be
sterllized, that silk should be passed between
the teeth to remove food debris, and that the
dentifrice should be completely soluble in
water so that the mouth can be easily rinsed
free from It,
That a clean tooth will not decay is undo
pisble. The difficulty of cleansing between

The New LANGUAGE OF the AIR

A NEW and very picturesque language is
- being coined from English and French
\ words, and odd bits OF slang to de-
scribe the various activities of the airmen ana
the craft In which they navigate the air.
4 "seaplane" "waterplane,' "hydro-aero-
plane." or water bus to give it few OF its
names. is flying machine fitted with 1oats so
that it can rise from and return to the water.
To taxi means to dash along the surface
until the speed Is sufficient to rise.
The "pusher" is a bipldne with the propeller
behind the planes. To stall a machine is
bad amidship, and means that the machine is
driven sHyward at too steep an angle so that
il flies tail down and loses its balance which
may end in a bad side-sip. The bat boat is
a bpaue with "a hoat-shaped body instead OF
floats A nose dive is a sheer drop often
caused by an accident to a portion of the
machine, usually ending in a fatal smash To
"climb" is to rise at the correct angle skyWard.
"vol-plane" is a glide to earth or water,
probably with the engine stopped. If the glide

A distinguished British heart specialist has lately
proved the efficacy of lump sugar in the treatment of

easily become infested; ships also entertain the
bedbug in considerable degree Poultry houses,
dove cotes and the hiding places of bats may
easily become infested with the bedbug or
nearly related species, and sparrows' and swal-
lows nests under caves, which are often alive
with the vermin, may be their portal of entry
into houses.
thorough determination of the bedbug would
result also in the determination of other dan
gerous insects infesting houses The local APP
plication of boiling water and other substances
will kill a few bugs and drive others away,
but serious efforts at extermination require
fumigation.
The destruction of bedbugs by fumigation
with hydrocyanic acid gas is effective, but great
caution must be observed. This method is not
suitable for use by others than experts. One
room at time may conveniently be fumigated
by sulphur candles two pounds to the thousand
cubic feet of air space; the room should be shut
tight and the sulphur burned in a coal bod placed
in a pan of water ,Fumigation is required to
kill all the bugs, as they are in the habit OF
concealing themselves in cracks behind wains-
coting, under loose wall paper, and in other
places.
Brass or iron beds can be rid of bugs by the
of fire. The bed should be removed to a
concrete floor or out OF doors, alcohol poured
into all the crevices and Immediately ignited
A burning newspaper may be passed under the
springs. Rubbish, old wooden BEDS old picture
frames, outhouses and chicken eoops which
have become infested should be burned.
For wooden bedsteads and available
crevices one of the best applications is hot
water. Another effective remedy is a liberal
application of benzine or kerosene, either used
alone or made up according to the following

How SUGAR Is the Body's GASOLINE

TTHE psychologist who discovered that your liver
and your muscles manufacture sugar while you
sleep has been surpassed by the German ph-si
clan who sugar dissolved in excellent
surgical dressing for all sorts of wounds.
Drs jacques Pansot and Pierre Matthew have just
declared that when animals eat exclusively for
long periods their weight at first decreases begins
to mend and then falls away again the diet continues
DR.. H. Head, of Tacoma Park, D. c.. disagrees with
these laboratory findings. He says sugar is compar
able to gasoline. AS the latter is the fuel of the in
ternal combustion engine sugar is the fuel of the
human machine. Sugar, he says, is the staff of life
and man can produce energy from sugar than from
any other food.
