CUTTING TEETH AT AGE OF 80
YEARS

What is considered by local doctors
as very unusual occurrence is the
painful experience Of Jacob Manure,
aged 80, Of cutting four teeth. AL
though Mr.. Manure is enjoying the
best of health, his advanced age con-
sidered, the teething is causing him a
great deal Of discomfort.
MIR. Mazure had four molars ex-
tracted when he joined the union
army in 1864, the time of the Civil
War, and has been without these teeth
since.
The cutting Of wisdom teeth, is un-
usual although not infrequent with old
people but that man should get
new molars fifty years after the old
ones were extracted is considered al
most miracle.

THE BEST TREATMENT FOR
ITCHING SCALPS, DANDRUFF
AND FALLING HAIR

To allay itching and irritation of the
scalp, prevent dry, thin and falling
hair, remove crusts, scales and dan

beauty of the hair, the following spe-
cial treatment is most effective, agree
able and economical. On retiring.
comb the hair out straight all around,
then begin at the side and make a
parting, gently rubbing Cuticura ONT
ment into the parting with a bit OF
soft flannel held owe the end OF the
finger. Anoint additional partings
about half an inch apart until the
whole scalp has been treated, the pur-
pose being to get the Cuticura Oint-
ment on the scalp skin rather than on
the hair. 1t is well to place a light
covering over the hair to protect the
pillow from possible stain. The next
morning, shampoo with Cuticura Soap
and hot water. Shampoos alone may
be used as often as agreeable, but
once or twice a month is generally
sufficient for this special treatment

CAMPAIGN TO SAVE BABIES
Before All Things, the Need OF Pure
Miiks Comes First, According
to All Authorities

II is estimated that a baby nursed
by it's mother has approximately ten
times the chances to live that a bottle
fed baby has. All welfare workers
therefore, are advised to encourage
mothers to make every effort to carry
out this most important maternal
duty.
A clean milk supply is a fundamen-
tai need. The ideal is: Nothing short
of clean milk for everybody. But the
need for the prompt remedy of bad
milk conditions is more urgent in its
relation to the welfare of babies than
to that of adults, since dirty milk is
largely responsible for the occurrence
of diarrhoea and enteritis, the most fire.
quent causes of death among infants.
The remedy lies in the intelligent and
effective inspection of farms, the
shops where milk is sold. and in ordi-
nances governing the sale of dipped
or loose" milk.

thing In the world. You take this
money and be sure to get the mes

"O'Leary. down at pier X-2-O has

right, my son, Aleck Van Camp, at
the Laramie. But you be good and
don't drown yourself"
This last injunction, word for word
in the manner of the pert Edith.
touched Jimmy's humor. He laughed
r~ingingly. His spirit was like a chime
of bells on a weekday.
The hour which followed was n
that James Hambleton found it diff
cult to recall afterward. with any de-
gree Of Conference; but at the time
his movements were automatically
accurate. swift, effective. He got
aboard a little steam tug and followed
the yacht down the river and into the
harbor. AS she stood out into the
roads and began to increase her
speed, he directed the captain Of the
tug to steam forward and make as
II to cross her bows. This would make
the pilot of the yacht angry, but he
would be forced to slow down a trifie.
Jim watched long enough to see the
success OF his maneuver. then went
down into the cuddy which served as
a cabin. took off his clothes. and
looked to the fastenings Of his money
belt. Then he watched his chance.
and when the tug was pretty nearly
in the path of the yacht, he crept to
the stern and dropped overheard.

Mercy of Ayiators.

Robert G. Fowler, an aviator, says
that while he was flying across the
Isthmus of Panama he found it would
be easy for an aeroplanist to blow up
the Gatun dam.
There is absolutely no protection"
he said. 81 think the government has
overlooked this.
ANY good aviator, flying a first-class
machine, could carry enough nitro
glycerin or other high explosive, to
blow such a hole in the dam that it
would leave the whole canal useless. l
could have done it myself, and l would
not fear to attempt it at any time"

CHAPTER w.
Mr.. Van Camp Makes a Call.

Aleck Van Camp turned from the
clerks desk. rather relieved to find
that Hambleton had not yet made his
appearance. Aleck had an errand on
his mind. and he reflected that Jim
was apt to be impetuous and reluc.
tant to await another mans conve-
nience; at least, Jim wouldn't per-
ceive that another mans convenience
needed to be waited for: and Aleck
had no mind to o this errand
from the housetops. 1t was not a
business that pertained. directly. Ell
Their to the Sea Gull or to the coming
cruise.
I He made an uncommonly careful
toilet, discarding two neckties before
the operation was finished. When all
was done the cravat presented a
stuffed and warped appearance which
was not at all satisfying. 81 to
Alexis uncritical eye; but the tie was
the last Of his supply and was, per-
haps. slightly better than none at all.
Dinner at the club was usually a
dull affair, and to Mr.. Van Camp, on
this Monday night, 1t seemed more
stupid than ever. The club had been
organized In the spirit of the English
clubs, with the unwritten bylaw OF alb
solute and inviolable privacy for the
individual. No wild or woolly manners
v e entered those decorous precincts.
No slapping on the shoulder. no hail
fellow greetings. no chance dinner
companionship ever dispelled the aw-
full penumbra OF privacy that sur
rounded even the humblest member.
A mans eating and drinking, his com
ing or going. his living or dying. were
matters only for club statistics. not
for personal inquiry or notice.
The result Of this habitual attitude
on the part OF the members Of the club
and its servants was an atmosphere
In which q cataleptic At would scarce
" warrant unoficial interference;
much less would merely mawkish or
absent-minded behavior attract atten-
ton. That was the function OF the
club-to provide sanctuary for per.
sonal whlms and idiosyncrasies: Of
course. always within the boundaries
OF the code.
On the evening In question Mr.. Van
Camp did not actually become silly,
but his manner lacked the poise and
seriousness which sophisticated men
are wont to bring to the important
event OF the day. He was as near being
nervous as q Scotch-American Van
Camp could be: and at the same time
an unwonted flow OF life and warmth
In his cool veins. He went so far as
to make a remark to the waiter which
he meant for an affable joke. and then
| wanted to kick the fellow for takine
1t so solemnly.
