self before a small table, smoothed
IL out and placed Il in front OF me.
Then for a long time I gazed at IL,
trying to exclude everything else
from my mind save the thought of
il. that I might remember where 1
had seen similar characters.
And then. bit by bit. it came back
10 me. I seemed again TO be sitting
at a restaurant table, opposite a
man. who. under the stress Of a
great emotion. was feverishly form

menu card in Inconsistencies of
what ne was doing. I had Won

with either hand. and had been es-
pecially fascinated in watching the
characte he formed with his left
hand. The same characters were
before me now!
I glanced furtively at my mother

at the window. watching the
grounds of the house next door. I
didn't wish her TO know OF my dis

ushed me into Mrs. Durkee's well

What S In a Name
(COnvriQhfl
(Copyr1ght)

ZOE.
One Of the oldest feminine names
in the history of etymology is Zoe,
signifying life" 1t had frequent
usage in Biblical records and was a
favorite in ancient Greece, but it's
vogue diminished during the Middle
Ages and it has been revived only
comparatively recently. 1t is regarded
as being as old as Eve, and is gener-
ally translated as "the mother of ali
living"
The Alexandrian Jews first used the
name Of Zoe when they translated the
history of the first woman and gave
her the title of Zoe instead of Eve, in
order to show the connection of the
name with the prophecy 1t contin
ued in vogue among the Greeks and
came into fashion again in England
with the revival of classic names.
Just why it has become a favorite
in recent years is impossible to de-
termine, unless it's significance and
the ancient associations, as we'll as
the shortness and undoubtedly pleas
ing sound may be taken as sufficient
reason.
Jade, the Chinese emblem of life, is
fitting talisman for Zoe. 1t is be-
lieved to bring her health, wealth
and happiness. Particularly will it
protect her from contagien and death

day and her lucky number.

Tartar Deposits
One Of the commonest results Of
neglect Of the teeth is an accumulation
of tartar. The first sign Of tartar is
a slight roughness, felt usually on the
inside Of the lower front teeth. This
is caused by deposits from the saliva
of a hard, chalky substance. The I'M

from tartar deposits is common

Riggs disease, or pyorrhoea. The
gums become irritated and infected by

are broken down and pus forms. I'm

NEGLECTED. TEETH

Due largely to the revelations of the
X-Ray, supplemented by careful ex-
animation by physicians and bacteria
logists, we now know that neglect OF
the teeth and mouth are responsible
for a number of serious infectious dis
eases, whose origin, until recently, was
very obscure. The more important Of
these conditions are diseases of the
heart and arteries, infections of the
blood and infectious diseases of the
joints.
All modern up-to-date dentists now
make use Of X-ray pictures whenever
they suspect any trouble with the
roots of the teeth. Not only the dent
ist, but the physician as well, has been
astonished at what these pictures have
revealed to him.
Often they show that pus is present
about the neck of the tooth, and that
there are pockets extending down to-
ward the roots which hold large guam
titles of putrid matter. The discharge
of poison and germs from these hid
den assesses at the roots of teeth
and the consequent absorption from
these and other local sources of infec-
ton such as diseased tonsils, are often
the real cause of some. obscure Hide
fined ailment which, perhaps has
baffled the attending physician for
some time.
Bad Teeth Cause.
1t is not a matter of coincidence
that in the Presbyterian Hospital in
Chicago, out of 1872 patients who were
suffering from rheumatism and joint
trouble, SO per cent were found with
| chronic assesses of the teeth, or that
at the Cook County Hospital, Chicago,
| 76 per cent of the rheumatic cases
were found chronic assesses of the
| teeth.
Certainly not all rheumatic or sys-
temic diseases are due to pus around
the necks of the teeth, or from con-
cealed assesses at their roots, nor
yet to infections of the tonsils. Yet

A Simple Way To
Remove Dandruff

There is one sure way that has
never failed to remove dandruff at
once, and that is to dissolve it, then
you destroy it entirely. To do this,
just get about four ounces of plain,
common liquid arvon from any drug
store (this is all you will need, ap-
ply it at night when retiring; use
enough to moisten the scalp and rub
IT in gently with the finger tips.
BY morning, most if not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will completely
dissolve and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace of it, no matter
how much dandruff you may have.
You will find all itching and digging
of the scalp will stop instantly. and
your hair will be fluffy, lustrous, CLOS
sy. silky and soft, and look and feel
a hundred times better.-Advertise-
