only 8 per cent, while the Maoris Of
New Zealand have only l per cent
carious teeth.
Decay in teeth is not exactly new.
Occasionally a tooth showing decay Is
dug up in some prehistoric ruin. While
this Is true enough, we find that among
the earlier peoples decayed teeth were
the exception and sound teeth the rule.
Among present day people the rule Is
1t is the opinion of most experts tina
not all the brushing and washing will
serve to reverse our rule. They help,
but they do not go far enough The
same criticism applies to school dental
tclinics. DR.. Ottqlengin, of New York,
insists upon that point. He says there
are not enough dentists in any city
10 clean and FIN air the teeth of school
children of that city. even though each
dentist gave to 1T all OF his time.
The far reaching remedy which DR..
Gibbs proposes-and / think most ply
Slcians and dentists agree with him
is that decay is due to improper diet,
and the remedy is to change the diet
The time to begin Is in the first few
days of life. The baby must be breast
fed, since breast fed babies develop
better jaws and teeth than bottle fed
babies. The next time for a change
from present methods Is weaving time,
or the time OF the prepare wear
me size and shape of the teeth sug-
gest that the baby should gnaw and
lear. Comparative anatomy shows that
the shape OF the jaw and teeth is q
most accurate index to the food of an
animal. The plain teaching of COM
parative anatomy Is that q baby should
Ignaw bones and bite on hard toast,
Swienack and such foods. The instinct
OF the baby points In the same direc-
ton.
When the child gets a little older he
should have meat, both lean and fat,
and hard foods which require much
biting, gnawing and chewing.
The pap fed child quickly becomes
I boiter and Will grumble IL he has to
lat a crust"
More important than what to eat is
what not to eat. kbove all, children
must not be allowed to develop a sweet
tooth. The less candy they eat the
better teeth they will have. It is very
much better for them to eat hard baked
oatmeal cakes and hard cooked cereals
without cream or sugar than to eat the
porridge, Cruel and other soft kinds.
! Children need either sweets or fats,
but the need, as between the two, is
interchangeable. II a child over is
months and older is given plenty Of
butter. gravy and fat meat he will not
crave sweets.
To clean the teeth of a child chew
ing hard food Is superior to the tooth
brush and dental floss. Eating fruit,
and especially apples, furnishes needed
sugar In a wholesome form and cleans
the teeth very satisfactorily. Espe-
cially is 1t advisable to close the eve
ming meal with some mouth cleansing
food rather than a porridge which
soils II.

he possibly get from the telephone out

Hastily he hid the cipher message in an

Submarines and Airships.

ton becomes focused on the fact that
diver warfare Ia being pursued as ener-
O lull, which was .variously explained. the
Germans stating that 1t was In Differences
to American demands, and the British
claiming that 1t was due to the capturs
of so many submarines. The probable
tiles are that there was never any cessa-
ton of submarine activity and that what
seemed so was the failure to torpedo any
big battleship or merchant steamer.
There was doubtless greater caution
exercised because. of the danger Of sink
