Get Complete Family Record.

Sugar records now being kept in
grocery stores are causing some per-
turbation On the part of grocery men.
Since the food administration linn
tied the amount of sugar a family
can use per month, the grocers have
had to keep track of the amount sold
to each customer.
For this purpose they use a sort Of
book, or ledger, in which the GUS
toner's name and address, and other
information pertaining thereto, are
recorded.
Since most of the purchasers are
women, it can be imagined that the
grocers' task, sometimes, is not so
easy, but the women, realizing that
the information must be given, have
gracefully accorded it.
Nor is that all.
GrOcers do tell that they get more
information than they have any need
for. Here's how it is:
"They insist on telling me all about
little Johnny, and what little Susie
is doing today, and-why, say, since
we started this here sugar record, we
know the complete family history of
all our customers"
Now what do you know about that?

IOWA COUNTY DEMOCRAT
A Word to Subscribers.

The War Industries Board requires
every weekly and daily newspaper in
the country to cut its subscription list,
or its paper consumption fifteen per
cent. This requirement becomes effec-
tive on weekly newspapers September
Is. 1918, and it must be obeyed by all
publishers.
The effect of this ruling will be to
place subscription on strictly cash in
advance basis. Very many subscrip
tons on The Democrats list are now
paid in advance. The new rate is 81 80
per year, Is cents per month. Some
subscriptions expired last January and
81 AS pays these until January 1919.
We will, as soon as possible, send
statements to all subscribers who have
not already paid in advance; and we
ask the kindly cooperation of all in the
work of checking up our list in accord
ance with good business principles and
to comply with the orders of the gov
eminent.

H. e. DEARHoLr., M D., DIRECTOR


A certain Milwaukee dentist receives
$1,000 per hour for his services. He
earns every penny. He seldom fills a
tooth and almost never makes a crown
or bridge, at least personally. His time
is devoted almost entirely to prevention
Of the necessity for the elaborate repair
work which was no characteristic of the
passing generation.
Our grand fathers and grandmothers,
as a rule, lost their teeth comparatively
early in life. It was not at all unusual
for them to have one or two sets of false
teeth by the time they were forty years
Of age. And yet they were healthy
people as rule. The men and women
who passed successfully through the
deadly first year, the contagious diseases
of childhood, and the menance of tuber-
culosis in early manhood and woman
hood were physically good stuff. y
Maybe the loss of their teeth helped
them in their old age.
Our fathers and mothers, many Of US,
belong to what might be called the
gold tooth generation" Teeth which
had been neglected in childhood were
ingeniously and marvelously restored.
Many which should have been "sent to
the scrap heap were retained in their
sockets even by use of mechanical force.
This generation is held to be far more
subject to rheumatism, kidney, and
heart diseases than previous ones were,
Undoubtedly, there is very distinct
relationship between the retention of
dead teeth in the mouth and diseased
hearts and kidneys. Rheumatism has
always been known to endanger these
vital organs. Removal of crowned and
other dead teeth from diseased sockets
has frequently succeeded in removing
rheumatic tendencies" after every
other method had failed to give lasting
relief.
Our children will belong to "clean
tooth generation in which the tooth
brush and the. best Of cleansing com
pounds in the bathroom will supersedp
the drills, chisels and mallets of the old
time dentists offices. The ten dollar
an hour dentist has foreseen this and
is reaping the reward of being far
enough ahead to escape the pressure Of
competition. Instead of repairing his
patients teeth, he is preparing them to
last and large proportion of his time
is devoted to the giving Of invaluable
instructions for their preservation.
