At Thoreau the Staples took
the Stanleys out to the Navajo
settlements where they saw the
interesting process of handwriting
and making of the famous blan-
kets. One old Indian mother, said
to be lis years old had a grand
daughter 70 years old and the
Stanleys were fascinated to watch
the old ladies tuck in the threads
of the ru G, using no shuttle and
making tapestries which command
hundreds of dollars in the East
ern cities. At Albuquerque they
called on Miss Isabel Porter and
they stopped in Philadelphia long
enough to visit Girard college ana
call on J. A. Davis, the former
principal Of st. Johnsbury Acad-
envy The latter showed them the
dining room for the boys where
1910 plates were laid in one room
for the next meal.
Everybody is doing it," said
Mr.. Stanley" On the prairies we
would travel for miles without see
ing houses or any game, but were
constantly meeting transcontinen-
tai tourists. Coming through Kan
sas eastbound | said to Mrs. Stan
, ley that we should not meet any
more tourists. The next day in
running 10 miles Mrs. Stanley
counted 1877 cars on the way to
the Pacific coast. This trip has
spoiled me for enjoying any more
trips by rail. We did not see any
big game, though we heard the
coyotes bowling some nights, but
we saw hundreds of rabbits and
prairie dogs and greatly enjoyed
stopping at the fruit ranches and
getting rine watelmelons, straw
berries, oranges and other fruit
right from the ground"
Many of our readers will recall
that it was at Redwood City, some
80 miles south of San Francisco,
that Alfred Stanley of Plymouth,
N. H., was peacefully sleeping
when the big earthquake nearly
destroyed the hotel where he was
a guest. Mr.. Stanley stopped at
Redwood Citv and tried to find
the hotel where his brother was so
seriously injured but it had been
replaced by another building since
the cataclysm.
Mr.. Stanley said that there were
100 Fords to anv other make on
the road and that all along the
Lincoln highway there were tires
by the roadside that had given out
on the trip. The Vermont car at
tracted much attention everywhere
and on all his trip he only saw
three other Vermont cars. The
chauffeur of one of these Vermont
cars was a Concord bow. They
kept in perfect health on the entire
trip and not until they reached
New England did thew catch the
colds which are one of the charac-
teristics of the region and which
the weather, which Mark Twain
has so accurately described, so
often causes.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Stanley have
received a most cordial welcome
from their manv friends, man of
whom predicted they would never
make the round trip in their car,
and both of them are full of re-
mlnlscences of the most interest

The war on film

Dental science, the world over, is
fighting a war on film. Film is that
viscous coat you feel. 1t clings to
teeth, enters crevices and stays. And
most tooth troubles are now traced to
it.
Those troubles have been constantly
increasing. The ordinary tooth paste
does not ed film, so the tooth brush
has proved inadequate. Millions know
how well-brushed teeth have discolored
and decayed.
