The tooth wrecker

Film is the great tooth wrecker. A viscous
film clings to the teeth, enters crevices and
stays. The ordinary tooth paste does not
end it. Old ways of brushing leave much of
it intact. And very few people have escaped
the troubles which it causes.
It is the flm-coat that discolors, not the
teeth. Film is the basis of tartar It holds
food substance which ferments. and forms
acid. It holds the acid in contact with the
teeth to cause decay. -.
Millions Of germs breed in it. They, with
tartar, are the chief cause Of pyorrhea-a dis
ease now alarmingly common.

That debt alone is costing us many mill lion dollars year so that there is some satisfaction in knowing that it is being cut down and. has already undergone ap- preciable reduction. This is getting help from the better methods of handling the nations business, the reduction of the large and seemingly linitless expendi- lures connected with war activities and the fact that it is insisted that waste be eliminated and economy practiced.
 When it is shown that there is some what less than third of a billion bal ance for the year it reflects the right kind of influence upon the use of the na- tion's money, the restriction of expendi- lures and a conservation of available funds. This is in keeping with the ef- forts which have been made by the re- publican congress, but regardless of who is responsible for the improved situation it cannot fail to be realized that the fa- vorable condition, the living within the income and the cutting down of the debt is only what ought to be expected It is certainly time that we got away from the lavish use of funds such as charac- terized the war period apd the secre- tary's report shows that it was possible to accomplish the very things that were demanded when the right kind of atten- tien was given to them.

i BACKDowN, BUT 4 WISE ONE.

When the mayor of New York writes a veto for a measure which he had pre- viously voted for only a short time be fore, it seems plain that he failed to give it due consideration in the beginning and that but for the strenuous opposi- ton put forth and the apparent sound judgment shown in trying to defeat the action it would in all probability have gone through as a glaring misuse of pub lie funds and a gross injustice to those for whom the appropriation was intend ed
 The veto deals with the s5,000, 900 fund that was approved by the state Iegisla- ture for increased pay for the city em- ployes. Under the plan which had the support of Mayor Hylan and which was supported by the democratic members of the New York city aldermen and board of estimates. there was to be a fiat raise of 20 per cent. given to the designated employees, while those who had opposed it and made a strenuous erdeavor to show the inconsistency of such a plan urged the taking care of the low salar- jed employees rather than the big salaried oneS by making the award on other than the percentage plan.
 IL can De readily understood, as was pointed out at the time the board of al dermen had it under consideration that to give a 20 per cent. increase to the city employees getting large salaries all ready would simply mean that such en- ployes would be getting increases that would be larger than the entire salary received by the little fellows. It meant 3 handsome wad for those who could really get along without it and little or nothing for those making the hardest struggle to get along and who have to pay just as much for the necessities of life as the other fellow:
 This sensible plea should have been needed when it was made. It would have been much more to the credit of the mayor to have recognized it then than to have awakened to it at this time. but it is nevertheless cause for some relief to know that he has become convinced of the inequality of the plan before it was too late. But in the backdown credi cannot fail to be given to the republicans who so persistently stood for it.

NEW ENGLAND,s ExAMpIr.

In connection with the appalling num- Der of deaths from automobile accidents attention is frequently called in New York to the failure to heed the benefit which is being gained in the New Eng land states by the laws which make possible to take away the licenses of au- tomobile drivers for certain violations of the laws. 1t is not to be presumed that all of the fatalities or accidents are the fault of the drivers of motor vehicles, but it is recognized that there is a responsi- bility which drivers of such fast moving vehicles must assume and when they do not shoulder it there must be correction al action. It is quite evident that the reckless driver, the one who insists up on guiding a machine when under the in fluence of liquor or who is disposed tt make the highway unsafe for others needs something more than a slap on the wrist if he is going to be made to stop such practices and if others, because of the penalty imposed upon him, are going to be prevented from following his ex- ample.
 When the number of serious accidents can be reduced by the exercise of the regulation withholding the licenses of drivers there can be no question hut what there is reason to look upon such as an excellent thing. If New York is not making use of it and permitting those who kill and maim to continue to be a menace to humanity it is proper that the attention of it's authorities should be called to the methods that are being en- ployed in New England, where it can hardly be said that they have begun to approach the perfection stage.

GOVERNOR COOLIDGE ACCEPTS.

When Governor Coolidge of Massachu- sets formally accepted the nomination of vice president on the republican ticket he did so in that straightforward clear cut and convincing manner that has characterized his political career Gov ernor Coolidge hasn't undertaken to charm by oratorical flights but he never theless commands the close and consid- crate attention of those to whom he speaks and on this occasion it was to the people of the United States.
 Governor Coolidge as the vice presi- dential nominee has his ideas regarding the responsibilities that will rest upon the party that is next placed in power. He understands the great need of putting the people back into possessiQn of their government and their property and to need of counteracting the reactionary tendency that would sidetrack the public will for the private will, while in keep ing with the stand which he has so de- fnitely taken in connection with the chief executives office in the Bay state he points to the fact that the observance of the law is the greatest solvent of pub lie ills.
 Upon the question of the league of na tions he endorses the action of the re- publicans in the senate and upholds the party platform, and pointedly declares that "The republican party is not narrow enough to limit itself to one idea but wise and broda enough to provide for the adoption of the best plan that can be devised at the time of action" For that very reason, he explains, the party declaration is broad. It is not the pur- pose to refrain for bettering the posi- ton of humanity by keeping this coun- try isolated but in joining with other na- tions he stands for the protection of this country's rights and the adoption of the best plan for peace and future under standing between nations.
 As was expected he stands firmly for law and order, the ending of govern mental extravaganza, the revision of tax ation. the punishment of the profiteers the re-establishment of transportation, increased production. an enlarged power of organization for the farmer, and ob- serving the rights of the soldiers. He is confident that equal suffrage is coming and believes that there should be a more general recognition of the constitutional rights of the colored race.
 New significance is given to the ac- ceptance speech of Governor Cool idge because of the announced intention of Senator Harding if elected to make him as vice president a member of the presidents official family And by what he has to say and the un- mistakable manner in which he says there cannot fail to be recognized that his presence in the cabinet is highly desira- ble

FACTS REGARDING THE
 CARE OF THE BABY By U. S. Public Health Service.
BATHING THE BABY.

Baby must be bathed at least once day During the hot weather one or two extra sponge baths may be given. For the first few months the temperature of the bath should be 90 degrees to 95 de- grees F. By the end of the first year it may be lowered to so or S5 degrees. The temperature of baby's bath may be tes,ed with the bare elbow, never with the hand. The water should feel comfortably warm to the elbow.
 Equipment: Baby's own tub, soap, tow els and washrag, bath thermometer, pow der, clean clothes, chair and table. All these and his full set of cle8n clothing should be arranged before nanl.
 Face After undressing baby, wrap him in small blanket, wash his face, head and ears, being careful not to get soap into his eyes and mouth. Very little soap is needed for baby's skin. It is most irn- portant that the skin should be rinsed thoroughly. Pat the skin dry with a soft towel, taking care to dry well hack of the ears and in the soft folds of the neck.
 Undressing: To undress baby, take the clothes off over his feet. If held on the lap, a large bath towel should be placed across the lap to prevent his tender skin coming in contact with rough or wor- sted dress, and to receive him when il is lifted out of the tub. 4 more convenient way of bathing the baby is to und ress him on a table instead of the lap. After the bath dress him as rapidly as possible. If the weather is cold, take care not to expose him unnecessarily.
 The Bath: Care should be taken never to plunge the baby into water that is too hot or too cold not to let him fali and strike the tub or in any way to get Frightened at his daily bath. If the hath ing is done properly, baby will en joy his bath so thoroughly that the giving it will be a pleasure.
 Soap the entire body thoroughly, then place him in the bath. holding him with the left forearm under the neck and shoulders the left hand under his left arm and lifting the feet and legs with right hand. Support the baby while in the tub with the left hand and arm. Sponge the entire body with the right hand, then lift the baby out and wrap him in a bath towel Never rub the baby's tender skin with anything less smooth than the palm of the hand.
 Bran Baths: When there is any irrita- tion of the skin, such as chafing or prick ly heat, bran may be substituted for soap Make a cotton bag of cheesecloth or other thin material and fill loosely with bran. Soak the bag in he bath water, squeezing it until it becomes n!IIk1
 Powder: A little pure talcum powder may be used in the creases and folds of the skin, under the arms and around the buttocks, but it should not be used so freely as to clog the pores of the skin. A highly perfurned powder should not be

SOME REASONS FOR WORRY

~Are you positively certain that this is the night We are asked to dinner?' in quired the man who was struggling with the studs in his dress shirt.
 Why, Roderick. p responsibility cried the beautifully lady who was anxiously powdering her nose under a bright light, what funny Nuestionl Of course it is!'
 Not funny in the least," growled her husband, jamming his thumbnail with a cufflink. I'd like to bet cooky with somebody that it's next week instead of tonight Or it was last week. When we arrive in all our glory we shall prob- ably find that our host and hostess left yesterday for California or else they will be downstairs cleaning up the coal cellar and just as glad to see us as though we were two germs of something they didn't want to catch. Did you save the invita- ton for reference?'
 They haven't used written invitations since the year 1.' reminded his wife. Mrs. Pinks asked me over the phone, of course. I put the date right down, but I've mislaid what 1 put it on-only am perfectly positive it is tonight"
 Huh |" said her husband, pursuing a stud across the floor and under rug you were positive, too, about that dinner
 
 we swept up the front walk of the Ob- bles' estate wearing set smiles and rath- CT expecting to be greeted by full brass band and trays of cocktails and things what met us? Obble himself met us and he wasn't at all glad to see us! He was just coming around from the back yard and he carried 8 spade in one hand and a basket of weeds in the other; he had on an overall suit that hadn't seen a laundry in so long it would have thought a cake of soap was an imported cheese and he had garden grime all. over his face and a disreputable old straw hat or his head.
 And two seconds later Mrs. Obblt dashed out of the front door wearing the dress she had on that afternoon wher she made marmalade and her hair was just slicked back-and when she saw u: a mere child could have told from the ex pression in her startled eyes that this was the night she had made a scant stew from what was left of the Sunday roas and that there wasn't soap of desser because she and the cook had been too busy for such trifes.

THE YACHT RACE.

However uncertain the chances of the defender of the America's cup may have seemed at the opening of the interna- tionaI yacht race, there was evidence furnished despite the loss of the first two races that it would give a good ac- count of itself and there was confidence in the packers of Resolute that it would win. Although Sir Thomas came the nearest to lifting the trophy on this try that he ever has it has been plainly shown that, though Shamrock " won one clean cut victory, Resolute was the better sloop and that it had well rec ognized advantage in being handled by Skipper Adams.
 The contests for the cup are not usual ly extended to five races. The challenger therefore has that to it's credit in making the defender go the limit in retaining the trophy and for that reason can be said to have come nearer than others to lifting the cup. In the deciding race there was not that kind of a breeze that was de- sired for a real snappy race, but it gave the defender a chance to demonstrate for a second time, and under different condi- tions both times, that it was able to beat
  allowance.
 The contest will go down in yacht race history as one of the hardest fought. outcome gives more encouragement to the challenging yacht club than has been obtained on previous occasions. Sir Thomas Lipton is of course disappointed that he will not carry the cup back to Europe but he is not dismayed Like the good sport he has shown himself on oth- CT occasions he is willing to let others have a try at getting the honors, but fl none desire it he will come again. He will be welcomed whenever he desires make another effort. Such contests helF to keep nations closer together and it is to be hoped that the suggested idea of more races between the yachts with the Vanitie included may be arranged before Shamrock " concludes its stay on this side.
