HEALTH TALKS
ACID MOUTH
This Important Cause of Tooth
Decay and Germ Disease is Due
to Wrong Eating.
By DR.. r. r. Daniels.

Normally, the secretions Of the
mouth, like most of the other secre-
lions OF the b ,dy, are alkaline in ma
ture. In this way the secretions are
bactericldal; they prevent the growth
OF germs with nut causing Injury 10

of the mouth. being normally aka :

which bring about decay of the teeth
and disease Of the gums.
The mouth becomes acid through
the food. A less important source of
mouth acidity is the small PARTICLES
of food retained between the teeth,
which ferment and decompose and
form the germ-favorng acids. BY
mouth acidity is. wrong eating,
habitually eating more food than can

errors in diet leaves more or less un-

Many anecdotes are told of some of
the curious ideas held about golf by
people to whom it was new and
strange game before its modern popu-

During the campaings IN Michigan
and Nebraska aud elsewhere last fall
the vets plastered these states with
the following allegations regarding
dry Colorado:
In Colorado 55, 900 were rendered
jobless by Prohibition; they glutted
the labor M lrket; industrial condi-
tions became chaotic: wages were re-
duced; thousands were thrown on
public charity.
This wet advertisement caught the
eye of Alex Swanson, Colorado State
Labor Commissioner, and he came
back with this sweeping commenda
tion of prohibition and its benefits to
the working man:
Prohibition did not make 1000
iobless. When the 1000 Colorado
saloons closed some 10000 persons
were affected. This number included
bartenders, porterS, walters, brewery
workers, etc. They were quickly as.
simulated IN other lines. There was
no Quitting of the labor market. Our
great trouble has been to get men
enough for the jobs. Wages have
not been reduced. Instead, wages
have been going up. Thousands were
not thrown upon public charity. Per.
haps few saloon hangers on were
those who would not work anyway
You will always find such in any
town. There are more demands TO
men to fill the jobs since prohibition
than there are men to ill the jobs.
