How TO Have Well Kept Teeth That

We cannot all have small, even,

fectly kept teeth. A careful mother
begins the attention TO her children's
teeth as soon as they push through the
gums. She cleans them with a bit or
absorbent cotton on the end OF her
scrubbed finger. and rs the child grows
older she brushes them. Nowadays all
the teeth OF all school children are
inspected, which win result In better
teeth, with no false teeth before the
age OF fifty. except under unusual con-
ditions.
The teeth should be brushed after
every meal and cleaned with n paste
at least every other day. Do not use
any of the powders that are gritty,
however cleansing they may be. Teeth
cannot be treated the same as n bath.

every particle OF food should be re-
moved from between the teeth with
dental floss. This is really the only
safe means of dislodging foodstuff.

4 Clever lawyer and The Raising Of "A
Falae isaue."
A story well known TO lawyers OF
the last generation Is about the "um-
breila case" A man was charged with
stealing a handsome umbrella, and a
number OF witnesses went into the
box TO testify TO the offense. The coun-
sci for the defendant noted that each
witness carried an umbrella (the time
OF year was midsummer, which ex-
plains the necessity for these impedi-
ments).
As a matter OF fact, the prisoner had
no defense to make. The barrister,
thrown on his wits, exclaimed: Gen
hemen OF the Jury, did you not notice
that each or the witnesses carried an
umbrella into the box? Why is this,
gentlemen7 1t is done In order to In
feet your minds with the idea OF an
umbrella. to prejudice the prisoner In
800 eyes. to raise a false issue and
I appeal 60 you to signify your detes-
tation OF this concerted action by
bringing In a verdict Of not guilty"
The Judge. who imagined that little
attention would be paid to such a plea,
took little time and less pains to sum
up the case. The jury nevertheless
brought In q verdict In accordance
with the resourceful barrister's wishes
and acquitted the guilty man.-London
