ANNIE RUSSELL AND

Seldom have players and an audi

than did Miss Annie Russell, her sup

the Atlanta Theater Monday night.
Miss Russell appeared in She

that smile radiates light over her
whole face.
And every woman smiles if only
she has good teeth to give her the
courage to smile and. show them.
Even. white, well-cared for teeth!
They add charm to a charming face.
They even make you forget irregu-
larity of feature and flaws in color
ing.
Come, madame. confess. have you
given your teeth the care they de-
serve? And mademoiseIe. be warned
before 1t Is too late. Your teeth are
one of your great beauty assets.
But they are perishable, they are
easily fawed. and they will repay you
measure for measure for either
neglect or care.
Do you know one reason why the
peasant women and the middle-class
"bourgeoisie" of my own country fade
so early? 1t is because in youth they
have sparkling girlish faces lit by
smiles and flashing teeth.
Soon decay takes its toll-the teeth
become yellow and broken; they fall
out from ill-use and neglect. The
cheeks become hollow when the tooth
support is removed; the pretty facial
curve Is lost and smile becomes
impossible.
Now the first rule to follow in car
ing for your teeth is to have them
examined by reliable dentist every
six months. Whatever sacrifice of
| luxury this means, you should still
adhere to this rule. A tiny cavity can
Je filled painlessly and cheaply-and
| a filing in time saves the tooth. So
consult your dentist regularly and
save big cavities in teeth and pocket

Use firm toothbrush with hard
bristles unless your gums are very
tender.
Brush your teeth In the direction
away from the gums-up from the
lower and down from the upper teeth.
Brush the teeth thus in front and
in back. On the upper surface of the
teeth use little rotary motion.
Keep a supply of dental floss on
hand-and never allow food to lodge
between the teeth. Brush the teeth
with clear water Of the mouth .em-
perature after each meal. and use tn
dental floss If necessary.
Watch the enamel for any crack or
stain. This may indicate decay or
damage of sort that requires q
dentists aid.

Growth of Hair.
Tells How He Did It.

A Western politician. well known
on account of his badness and his
ready wit, surprised his friends by
appearing with a heavy growth OF
hair; many of his friends did not
know him, and others thought he had
a wig on being asked how he did
it., he made the following statement:
II attribute the growth Of my hair to
the following simple recipe which any
lady or gentleman can mix at home:
To a half pint OF water add 1 ounce
of Bay Rum, small box of Barbo
Compound and Il ounce of Glycerine.
Apply TO the scalp two or three times
a week with the finger tips It not
only promotes the growth of the hair,
but removes dandruff, scalp humors
and prevents the hair from falling
out. 1t darkens streaked, faded, gray
hair and makes the hair soft and
glossy. These ingredients can be
purchased at any drug store at very
little cost and mixed at home"
