HOW TO CURE
REeEpLNG GUMS

A careful census in all the large
cities Of the country shows one In
every five adults to suffer from bad
teeth. Decay is one Of the main trou.
bles-when the enamel Of the teeth be-
comes yellow and black, and the gums
begin to recede from their accustomed
places, decay sets in. Then come loose
teeth, bleeding, liberated teeth, and
the attendant train Of ills of the
mouth. You can soon realize that your
teeth are becoming disordered If you
will but note how sensitive they are
to heat and cold. You sometimes feel
that your teeth are conan edge" Tar
tar is shown especially on the inside
of the teeth, exudations and receding
gums are sure to follow. Your teeth
become loose and may twist and dis
tort in their gum sockets. In a thrice
YOU have a bad mouth that everyone
is sure to note, and you are certain to
feel. 1t makes you shy and back
ward-you don't care to laugh because
you realize how easily one takes note
of your yellow and blaCkened teeth.
Teeth extraction is always to be
adovided When you pull one tooth 1t
gives the others more opportunity to
become loose in their sockets. If you
are not careful you must soon go in
for store teeth, and these store teeth
are insanitary as we'll as ugly. They
never look like your own true teeth,
and everyone notices that
You can readily overcome these
troubles if you will but go to the Noun
tain City drug store and get just four
ounces Of fluid ergan (you won't need
more) and put a teaspoonful in your
mouth morning, noon and night, You
will wake up with white teeth-the
yellow on the enamel peels off and
shows the whiteness underneath - the
blackened teeth give way to white
ones, your gums are clean and healthy,
and the teeth in them strong and firm
instead Of rocking to and fro. The
dangers of pyorrhoea pass away, foul
breath and bad tasting mouth are gone
-sponglness and recession of gums
disappear, for the reason that the
microbes tat infest the mouth and rob
the'teeth of their white appearance are
forever destroyed.

BETTER CHANCE FOR
MANUAL TRAINING
Boys Hands Were Made
Cunning at Cost Of 1882
Each.

A department Of the High school
which has been hampered considerably
on account Of lack of adequate working
facilities and lack Of funds but for
which more room and better working
facilities will be provided for next
wear is the Manual Training depart
ment.
The Board Of Education has con.
tracted for approximately one thousand
dollars worth of new equipment con
sisting Of motor driven speed lathes.
hand planer and jointer and a universal
saw bench and this equipment will be
installed during the summer vacation
and be ready for use when schools
opens in The fall.
With the installation Of this equip
ment a new inspiration will be given
the young men who already take an
enthusiastic interest in the work oil
this department.
The cost OF maintaining this depart
ment for the past year together with
salary Of head Of the department, as
sistant, supplies, etc., was $1,424.Ss
The cost per pupil in this department
based on attendance for the year was
1882.
The work of manual training was
last year extended to the grades and
great interest was manifested in the
work by thepupils of the grade schools
Various articles from small boot
rack to we'll finished book case were
made by the pupils of the high school
while various articles were made by
the boys Of the grades.
The cost Of maintaining the elemen
tary school manual training depart
ments for the year 1867 was $97S.72
The per capita cost based on attend
ance was $5.04.
Some little idea of what it costs to
maintain the public schools Of the city
may be obtained by glancing over the
following figures of the cost Of light
ing, fuel and motors for the schools fol
the year 19l5-1916:
The total of the cost of heating the
Barnes, Butcher, Fleming, High, Miller
and White schools for the year 1856
from October to May was $1,S11.05.
Cost of lights for the Barnes, Butch
er, Fleming, High, Miller, White, Dun
bar schools for the same period
amounted to $4O1.92.
Cost of motors for the buildings fol
the period approximates $SS9.9S.
