BEFORE STAINING
 THE FLOOR TRY THIS

Owing to the high cost of floor covering of every kind. stained floors are growing in popularity. It is a simple and satisfactory process if done properly. The chief objection to it is that there are so many unsigntly cracks in some floors.
 It may take a little time. patience and work, but then the nice, smooth floor resulting from your labers more than repay you for the trouble For filling the spaces between the boards. or any other holes in it, there is noth- ing better than newspaper pulp. This is easily prepared in the following manner:
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1920-10-19

Tear up newspapers into small pieces and put them into an old sauce pan with some water. Bring it all to a boil and keep stirring well until the paper has been reduced to mass a little less stiff than dough. Add more CT less water to it, as may be re- quired Let the mixture cool, and then, while it is still soft and pliable, fill all the cracks in the floor When the pulp dries it will become very hard, and takes stain or paint beauti- fully There is sometimes a large crack just beneath the baSeboard. This can be filled nicely with the pulp and stained to match the floor or board. This is not hard to do is a very inexpensive filler, much less so than putty. (which is generally used, and the result is pleasing.

You and Your Teeth An Educational Series
 By H. (. WEIDLICH DDS.
Number Eleven.

Parents are as a rule willing to and do make sacrifices of every de- scrtption to insure the future welfare
 S their children. There is one very or a child regarding which altogether too many parents are prone to be negligent. I refer to the interference so often manifested regarding the child'S teeth. In the majority of cases, parents are inclined to look upon the growth of the childs teeth. particularly the second or permanent teeth as something that requires no attention, thinking it is just a process of nature wherein satisfactory results are assured as a matter of course. People carefully train trees, plants and shrubs so that they will present an attractive and symmetrical ap- pearance. It is very often just as necessary and desirable to have the secondary or permanent teeth trained so they will grow out in alignment, as 1t Is to train a tree or plant dUrin 2 it's early development. Practically all cases of irregularly placed teeth can, with proper attention be trained metrical manner. A very bad feature of teeth out of alignment is that the occluSion (that is, ability of upper and lower teeth to meet when jaw is closed, is imperfect and this make s mastication imperfect and thereby tmpairs the most important function of the teeth. Bring your children to and if ] find that nature is working sfactorily and the secondary teeth require attention, I'll frankly tell you so. For needed work whether for yourself or family you will find my fees reasonable and service the best.

it was necessary to separate them
