Story Taken From Arthur G.
Train 8 "Mortmain" Is a De-
cided Novelty in Picture
Plays.

The first Vitagraph production
in which the distinguished actor
Robert Edeson will be seen is a
perturbation Of "Mortmain,' OF
"The Dead Hand" from the
story of the same name by Arthur
c. Train. Mr.. Edeson, who por-
trays the name part, Mortmais,
was supported by an all-star Wit
agraph cast. directed by Theodore
Marston under the personal SUI
pervision of J. Stuart Blackton
and Albert E. Smith.
"Mortmain" is a screen story
is doubly attractive because of
its strong dramatic action. and
the scientific and Psychological
elements that make of it a decid-
ed novelty. Mr.. Edeson, as mort
main, is shown being put to sleep
under the influence of ethyl
chloride, and as the drug takes
effect the sensations experienced
bv him under it's influence are
shown in vivid realism. He sees
his own head getting larger and
larger until it bursts. This is
succeeded by a falling sensation
as from a great height, and it is
during this period the superman
leaves the body and wanters off
into space. AS the force of the
anesthetic is spent and the soul
returns to its physical habita-
tons, Mr.. Edeson receives a SEN

TEETH AND ITS DEFECTS.

By George w. Goler, M. d.
Decay Of the teeth. defects il
the nose, throat and ears, were
not always as common as they
are today. Of every thousand
children examined. more thar
half Of them will be found tt
have one or more decayed teeth
and large number will have
Rdenoids, large tOnsils and de-
fective hearing. Few men and
women have perfect teeth, un.
obstructed noses and threats and
sharp hearing.
We do not know just why or
just when these defects in the
teeth. nose. throat and ears be-
gan to appear; they probably
came when man left the course
food, pure air and fleer life of
the fields to dwell in cities. No
one can tell us whether the chill
dren of old suffered from ade-
noids and large tonsils, but we
do know that in Egypt, more
than four thousand years ago,
decay of the teeth was as rare as
decay of the bones.

The Teeth.
The Baby's Teeth.-.If you
look at the baby's jaw before it
has any teeth. you will see that
its gums are pink and thin.
Look again when the baby is five
or six months old, or perhaps a
month or two older. Just where
the two lower front teeth are to
come in you will see that the
gum just over the tooth is swell
ling a little. In few days the
top part of the gum over the
tooth will grow soft and let the
tooth come through. Baby now
has a tooth. Soon it will have
enother tooth right alongside of
he first one. In this wayy all
& the first teeth will come
through the baby's jaw about the
time shown in the table.

The Outside Of a Tooth.-The
white part of tooth that you
see in the mouth is the crown.
The crown is connected by a
neck to a root which holds the
tooth firmly in the jaw. The.
neck Of the tooth is just below
the gum and is narrower than the
crown. The tooth is made of
dentine and is very hard, like
ivory. The dentine is covered on
the outside by harder enamel,
thicker on the biting edge where
the tooth gets the most wear.
Inside Of Tooth.-Inside of
the tooth there is hollow space
for blood vessels and nerves,
which enter the tooth from the
end of the root.
Toothache.-When you get
toothache. something has made |
your tooth decay. It is this
which causes the ache.
What Makes Teeth Decay
Two things make teeth decay.
First, sickness in childhood, like
scarlet fever, diptheria, measles,
whooping-cough and other dis
eases. Such diseases make the
teeth decay by weakening the
body and softening the teeth.
Second, when the teeth are not
kept clean and smooth they get
rough and dirty. Food gets into
The rough and dirty parts of the
teeth or in between the teeth,
where it ferments, forms acid
md Injuries the enamel.
What Happens if the Teeth are
Not Cared For.-Should food
collect on the teeth or between
Inn. the acid that is formed
works through the enamel and
nto the ivory. Sometimes this
happens on the crown of the
Doth; sometimes on the neck of |

Burgess-Nash Buyers
Back from the East

With one or two exceptions the entire
force of buyers for the Burgess-Nash
company have returned from the eastern
markets and each reports an unusually
successful trip.

pany, who was in New York directing
the buying and who returned home yes
terday said: Everybody the country
over. is very optimistic and everything
points to a remarkably prosperous season
this fall particularly in this locality. The
Burgess-Nash force bought with that in
mind, laying particular stress on the
selection of ready-to-wear and mer-
chandisG for the basement store.
Manufacturers realizing our wonder
full growth. the character of merchandise
we sell and the increasing demand were
anxious for us to open accounts with
them and in that way we were able to
secure many splendid lines of mer-
chandise for which we win have the ex-
elusive sale in this territory.
I'VE made a greater effort this time
than ever before TO select merchandise
with an eye to the needs and requirements
of the Omaha buying public-that we may
be in truth of the greatest service TO the
greatest number"
