PYORRHEA ALVEOLARIS

1t is scarcely necessary to call the
attention of the general public to the
prevalence of Pyorrhea Alvoeolaris
riggs Disease) and to its deri-
mental effect on the health of the in
dividual. No other common disease is
so frequently allowed to go untreat-
ed. 1t is not only the cause of foul
breath, liberated and receding gums
and loss of teeth, but also is prime
factor in inviting arthritis, neuritis,
intestinal toxermias and hemc ane-
mias.
Endameba Buccalis
Pronazek described the endameba
buccalis in 1904 but this protozan or
ganism was not credited with patho-
genicity until 1914, when Drs. Barrett
and Smith, of Philadelphia, observed
its presence in forty-six cases of py-
orrhea.
Emetine Locally
Knowing that emetine, one of the
alkaloids of ipecac, possessed specific
endamebicidel action Barrett and
Smith treated thirteen cases of py-
orrhea by injecting daily, for five or
six days, a one-half per cent solution
of emetine directly into the pyorrheal
pockets. The rapidity with which the
pus disappeared and the LESSONS healed
was remarkable This method has
since proven successful in the hands
of many dentists.
Dental Treatment Necessary
Alcresta ipecac is a specific for the
treatment of pyorrhea, but it must not
be expected that large, chronic pus
pockets will heal in few days under
its influence. Alcrcsta ipecac will re-
move the cause of the disease, but il
remains for nature, aided by proper
dental treatment to effectually close
up the abscess pockets, which may re-
quire from a few weeks to several
months, depending upon the nature
ana extent OF the LESSONS. NO case
of pyorrhea should be treated without
receiving at the same time proper in
strumentation. Thorough, but care
full cleaning of the teeth, scaling and
polishing the roots and, whenever nee
essary, removing necrosed tissue is
absolutely essential to success.
Relapse or Reinfection
1t should not be expected that one
treatment in the dental chair or one
course of alcresta ipecac will cure any
but the milder forms of the disease
However, it is safe to say that after
a course of alcresta ipeac not a single
motile endemeba will be found in any

UNIVERSITY OF NEVADA

The University of Nevada opens
Monday, August 80, and from all re-
ports this will be the banner year in
point of attendance.
The University is educating the
young men and women who will be
come future leaders in professional,
industrial and public life in Nevada
and on whom the future development
and welfare of the State must rest
by parents and the boys and girls of
Nevada that the University at Reno is
the one institution i'll the country,
which trains students to meet the re-
quirements of success in Nevada and
inculcates loyalty to the State and the
States best welfare.
The fact that many California stu
dents are being educated at the Uni
versity of Nevada is outside recog-
milton of the thouroughress of the
training we are giving No large Uni
versity with thousands of students car
hope to give the same personal atten-
ton to the individual student and thus
insure thoroughness of his or her
training, as one with four or five hum
dred students, strong faculty Of fifty
or more professors and instructors
and an equipment for technical an vo-
cational instruction such as possessed
by the University of Nevada.
We have one of the very best edu
cational institions in the West and It
is where the girls and boys of Nevada
should go to fit themselves for their
life work, The 1915 catalogue is now

HENDRIX WILLIAMS.

Brady Hendrix and Miss Jewel
Williams, both of West Hickman,
We're quietly married Sunday
morning at $50, at the home of
Ben White and wife, Rev. j. b.
Housley, of the West Hickman
Baptist church officiating. Quite
a few friends of the contracting
parties witnessed the ceremony.
Mr.. Hendrix is an employee Of
the Mengel Box Co., and has
been with them several years. He
is an Industrious, well liked
young man.
The bride is a daughter of Sam
Williams, who lost his life at the
Mengel factory last year. Since
her fathers death, she has made
her home with Ben White and
wife. She is a charming little
lady and deservedly popular
with all who know her.
Congratulations.

ment has already been put in

ness instanced in the note TO
Germany similar issues between
the United States and Great Brit
ian that in the presidents judg
ment merit prompt and decisive
action.
Immediately after the German
government has replied TO the
note. which left the state depart
ment Friday, and irrespective Of
the tenor of the reply, II is the
purpose Of the president TO a
gain address the government of
Great Britain ON a phase of the
war in which the United States
feels compelled 10 intervene,
namely. TO stop Interfering with
our neutral and non.cOntraband
commerce.
This. according 10 an exception
al authority, will take the form ot
protest against the blockading
of neutral ports contiguous 10
German territory, particularly
those of Holland and Denmark
While not seeking TO interfere
with the rights of Great Britain
10 cope with Germany by legiii-
mate means, the president is of
the opinion that the British gov
crnment has exceeded It's legiti-
mate powers in closing all ports
on the North Sea.
Coupled with his protest there
will be a suggestion conveyed in
polite but firm terms that Great
Britian permit the importation to
Germany OF foodstuifs and other
necessaries Of life according To
the international agreement 10
ameliorate the condition of the
non-combaiant population, par
iicularly women and children.
The keynote OF the note TO
Great Briiian will be the same as
that which provoked the resigna-
ton Of Mr.. Bryan-that 10 retain
the respect Of the United States
and justify continuance of
friendly relations England must,
like Germany. make concessions
to the cause Of humanity.

HICKMAN FERRY WILL
RUN STRAIGHT ACROSS.

II seems the ferry business at
Hickman is both fascinating and
ensnaring; il is subject to many
changes-to many proprietors, to
many vicissitudes. Our informa-
tion is that we are 10 have a new
ferry right away, NJ. l.. Barnes
being the head of the new ven
ture. For several years the Hick-
man ferry has been compelled,
ON account OF the objections OF
Mr.. Lewis, owner of the island OPP
posite Hickman and the logical
landing place, TO land at Dorena,
some three miles below town.
Mr.. Barnes has leased the Lewis
Island, thus bringing together the
incompatible elements - HEX
man 5 needs and Mr.. Lewis con
sent TO public road over his
land. The old arrangement work
ed hardship on ferry operators
and people living opposite and a
bove Hickman. Ii is a 3 mile drive
down the river TO the ferry, and
a similar haul for the ferry to
get back up town; twelve miles
of hauling, when two or three
should suffice. The business in
terests Of Hickman naturally suf-
fered more or less because many
Mississippi county farmers were
not inclined to drive TO Dorena
in order TO cross the river al
though il was the only available
means of doing so. The short
route will doubtless be much bet
ter for both ferry and those who
patrOnize il.

THE CRAwFIsH SIGN.

Old people who watch signs in
discerning the weather for the
future are confident that we are
to have a wet summer. The pre-
dichons are based upon the fact
the erawfish are not building
mounds this spring, but end the
holes abruptly at the top of the
ground. This sign is relied upon
absolutely by many old people
and according TO them is m.
failing. In seasons when the
weather Is 10 be dry the crawfish
build high mounds. BY the fact
that they have no mounds at all
this spring il is indicated that
the summer will be exceedingly
wet.

TO BUILD GRAVEL ROAD;
NO COST TO COUNTY.

At meeting of the Fiscal
Court last Friday afternoon a
proposition was made by S. l..
Dodds and other residents on
State Line road TO pay half the
cost of building a gravel road
from Hickman some 3 or 4 miles
out, if the county would take ad-
vantage of State aid and get the
other half the money from the
State.
Fulton county is entitled TO
draw $5,sl5 from the State aid
road fund this year; hence, the
piece of gravel road will not cost
the county a red cent; even the
engineer TO oversee the work
will be furnished by the federal
authorities at Washington. The
county officials would do well TO
contract the whole county on
this basis. OF course, as a matter
of business, the public spirited cit
liens who offer TO bear one half
the cost, will be asked TO execute
bond to carry out their part of
the contract.
Under this arrangement, Fulton
county will get her 5000, which
otherwise would have remained in
the fund TO have been apportion-
ed among the other counties in
the State next year. The Fiscal
Court did not feel financially able
this year to make the expendi-
lures necessary TO procure this
fund.
Let the good work go on. As
long as the road improvement is
done by private donation and
State aid, no grouchy taxpayer
will have kick coming; he
jist can't" On the contrary, 1t
viii be giving gravel roads a
start in Fulton county, which in
time will spread all over it.
The work mentioned above will
probably begin some time in July
or possibly August.
