Instructions for Using Artificial Teeth

MANY users OF artificial fail get the full benefit
eicicncy from their For this feel
du{y TO advise OF artificial teeth upon this very
important question.
Different animals have widely different movements OF the
Jaws when engaged in masticaing their food.
The camel grnds its food with lateral motion, the
lower jaw moving from side side and grinding the food
between its teeth.
The elephant employs crushing movement by lower
ing jaw and then bringing the teeth OF the
upper and lower jaw coming together with such force that
the food is crushed instead OF being ground
The wolf employs backward and forward saving move
OF the lower teeth against the upper teeth and mange
Its food before swallowing
The human being aninal has the combined movements
nastcation OF all other animals When have nat
,lral teeth we can grind with lateral motion, crush with
direct pressing motion incse and mange our food with
the saving movement As said before when have our
teeth have and may employ all OF these move

BUY YOUR TIRES NOW

That the automobile public is vitality
interested in the continued advances
in necessary automobile equipment is
generally conceded. Since January,
1917, prices have increased on all
makes.
All the responsible tire companies
have warned consumers of advances
prior to their taking effect, and the
automobile public has had full notice
that future advance will be heavy.
Naturally, the tire buyer wants tc
know the reason.
Past advances in the tire market
have not been caused by increased
cost of rubber. Good grade of crude
rubber has averaged 80 cents per
pound, and that is not "dear rubber"
During 1916 there was imported into
this country about 10000 long tons,
or 359,840,O0O pounds, so there has
been no shortage, even with the in
crease in tire manufacture.
Cotton Costs More
The higher cost of cotton fabric
has been the main reason for past
advances. First grade long strane
Sea Island cotton is now selling al
S1.5O per pound just double that o1
a year ago, and it is hard to buy a
any price. There have been unusuall,
heavy demands for cotton and cottol
fabrics and the old and true principle
Of supply and demand has governe
the market.
But the future prices of tires vii
be affected not only by the continue
advance Of cotton fabrics, but ais
by the higher cost of rubber. 1t
easy to understand that when tt
government war demands for cotto
must be filled, and when the lars
II tire factories, trying to get 1918 co
ton fabric supply, start bidding
o the open market, the cost of fabri
must 60 higher. The rubber stu
: ton is not the same. The plant
ton cost of rubber will probably a

the last note is played, excepting in
inclement weather when the headdress
may be held slightly raised. The
custom of rising and remaining stand
ing and uncovered while the Star
Spangled Banner is being played is
growing in favor among civilians.
Old or worn-out flags should not
be used either for banners or for any
secondary purpose. When flag is in
such a condition that it is no longer
fitting emblem for display it should
not be cast aside nor used in any way
that might be viewed as disrespectful
to the national colors, but should be
destroyed as a whole, privately, pre-.
ferably by burning OF by some other
method lacking in any suggestion o.
irreverence or disrespect.
1t should be borne in mind that thu
views set forth in this circular are
merely suggestions and that it is no
the intention Of the department K
give them out as authoritative.
The Glasgow courier., 1917-07-13

vance very little if at all. But in
creased freight rates on account of
greater waterway risks, higher rates
of insurance for the same reason,
and other similar contributing
causes will boost the cost Of rubber.
The proposed government taxation
of 10 per cent import duty, and an
additional per cent on sales price
of tires naturally means higher SELL
ing prices. Crude rubber has al
ways been on the free list, but the
action of the Ways and Means COM
mittee places a double tax on the
tire industry. In addition to this
will be taxes on excess profits, cor
poration tax, income tax, etc.
The Rubber Association Of Ameri-
ca, through its legislative commit.
tee, is opposing the double tax or
tires and tubes, but even if success
full, it is fair to say to consumers
that the prices on tires and tube!
will steadil yadvance. Buy now, i
the best advice to offer.

WHY IS AN EDITOR?

An editor is a man who sells soft
soap by the year instead of by the
cake.
He runs a newspaper, in which
he lies about the looks Of the bride,
the fitness of candidates, the virtues
of corpses and his circulation.
The things he tells the truth about
are things he leaves out.
Newspapers are supposed to run,
but many of them are barely able to
walk, due to too much riding by free
space grafters, and too much carrying
by wholesale houses.
The popular belief is that an ed.
itor cannot live unless his subscrib
ers pay up.
That is probably why they do no'
pay up.
The most successful editors are no
the ones who get the most out Of th'
business, but the ones who ge. GU
Of the business.
Many an editor has made goo
money out of the newspaper bushes
if entirely out.
What the public seems to want a
editor to make is haste, not money.
The newspaper business is not S
much of a profession as habit.
If the habit is not broken in tim
the editor will be.
: After the editors, the paper man,
facturers make the most money o,

, And it would be much better fl

. One of the saddest things in an o.
r itor's life is that he had to help kes

r ing to death.
d Editors are said to mould publ
t opinion.
t We have often wondered why publ
it opinion was so mouldy.
: Most public men are made
newspapers, which is one of t
greatest objections to newspapers.

DISPLAYING, HANGING AND

SALUTING AMERICAN FLAG
The adjutant general of the war de-
partment has issued the following:
Many inquiries concerning the pro-
per method of displaying, hanging and
saluting the United States flag are
being received in the war department
with the evident object of securing
some authoritative statement relating
to the subject.
In this connection it should be re-
marked that while it is within the
province of the war department to
prescribe rules and regulations gov
erning the matter in question for OBJ
servance within the army, yet it is
beyond its province to prescribe any
such rules or regulations for the
guidance of civilians or to undertake
to decide questions concerning the
subject that are presented by civil
ians.
Only Two Laws on Subject.
There is no federal law now in
force pertaining to the manner of dis
playing, hanging or saluting the Unit
ed States flag or prescribing any cere-
monies that should be observed in con-
nection herewith. In fact there are
but two federal laws on the statute
books that have any bearing upon this
subject, one the act Of congress, ap-
proved February 20, 1905 (33 Stat
L., p. 1857, providing that trade
mark cannot be registered which con.
sists of or comprises, inter ALA, 1.-THE
flag, coat of arms, or other insignia
of the United States, or any simula'
ton thereof" and the other the act
of congress approved February 8, 1911
(Public-No. 305-64th Cong.), pro
,, viding certain penalties for the desc
Grafton, mutilation, or improper use o.
the flag within the District of Co
> lumbia. Several states Of the Uniol
: have enacted laws which have NOR
or less bearing upon the general sub
ject, and it seems probable that man.
counties and municipalities have ais
passed ordinances concerning tn
r matter, to govern action within thei
:, own jurisdiction.
