MAKE TROUBLE FOR DENTIST
Successful Treatment Of Wisdom
Teeth Always Is More or Less
Of Problem.

Wisdom teeth, especially lower ones,
are much more difficult to handle than
any of the others in the mouth. When
their nerve dies or has to be killed
by the dentist he cannot be sure for
some time that it Is really dead The
reason Is that the roots of q wisdom
tooth are twisted or curved in such q
manner that the root canal cannot be
explored.
The upper wisdom teeth have three
roots, Frequently fused together,
forming grooved cone, which Is usu-
ally curved backward" says Gray's an
atomy. "The roots Of the lower, two
in number, are compressed together
and curve backward"
1t Is this backward curving of the
compressed roots that gives trouble to
the dentist. Often the canal that
runs through each root is so narrow
and so curved that the finest of the
brooches" used to draw out the dead
nerve will not penetrate, and some
times when it has penetrated it will
not come out.
When this happens there is only one
thing to do-leave the brooch and ap-
ply iodine, which will very soon eat
away the steel Of which the brooch In
made.

Las Vegas Has Future,

Las Vegas was founded by some Mex
leans when New Mexico was a part of
old Mexico, In 1885, and the Mexican
government granted to the new COM
munfty an area Of some 100000 acres.
The Mexicans took up what they need
ed Of this land and built a village In the
middle Of the settlement. It remained
a sleepy Mexican town until some time
In the seventies, when it was struck
simultaneously by several Yankees and
Jews, and by wave of prosperity.
The Mexicans, who had been SQUAT
ting on a part Of the community grant,
showed that they were capable of learn
ing modern business methods by claim
ing the whole 100000 acres. After a
long contest the courts confirmed them
In their titles to the lands they actu.
ally occupied, but decided that the rest
of the area belonged to the community
And so 1t is today. This town owns
great grazing areas. which are open to
all citizens, and valuable timberlands
Ultimately Las Vegas will be rich ane
her people tax free.
