BLAB0N MAN FORGED
CHECKS FOR $4,000

Myrle Schultz, alias Myrle Cole,
% years old, believed to have cashed
worthless checks amounting to a
total of more than $4,000 in doz-
en- North Dakota and Montana towns
since the first Of the year, was ar
rested at Alberta Lea, Minn., Satur-
day on information furnished by the
Cass county sheriff's department and
will be returned to Fargo for trial,
according to announcement by Sher-
III Fred Kraemer.
Prior to Schultz's alleged forgeries
he was employed as farm laborer
on a farm near Ayr, N. D. His home
is, at Blabon, N. D., where his par
ents are residing.
d. Schultz is said to have cashed
worthless checks in Fargo, Cassel-
ton, Buffalo, Wheatland and Dick
inson in North Dakota, and in sew
eral towns in Montana. He was ar
rested by Sheriff Fosse of Albert
Lea after he had passed forged
check in that city for SIS, the sher-
iff's Office has been informed.
At Casselton Schultz is said to
have boasted that he was soon to
marry the daughters of lone of the
richest farmers in Cass County," and
that he bought large amount of
furniture at store, giving a check
for $1,400 for the furniture and re-
ceiving about 500 in cash, the diff
ference between the bill for the fur
niture and the amount of the check.
He is also said to have visited a
Casselton dentist on the pretext of
paying bill owing the dentist by
his brother, where he cashed check
in the amount of the bill and an ad-
ditional SIS, using the story of his
approaching marriage as a blind.
-, While in Dickinson, Schultz is
charged with having passed worth
less checks amounting to more than
$500. He was next heard from in
Montana, where he visited several
towns before returning to Minnesota

HOW TO BRUSH the
Teeth CORRECTLY

DO you know how to brush your
teeth?"
In spite of all the pleadings and
threats made by dentists and public
health workers; in spite of ALL pro-
poganda that has been put forth on
the subject. the percentage of people
in America who brush their teeth
at all is shockingly small. And the
number who brush correctly is al
most infinitesmal. Modern food is
soft, and settles in thick pastes be-
tween the teeth. We do not gnaw
bones, as our primitive ancestors did
nor give our jaws the sort of Wig
orous exercise that cleansed their
teeth automatically and afforded q
vigorous massage for the gums at
the same time. All of these exercises
which used to be afforded in the sim
pie process of eating, we must get
If we get it at all-in the night and
morning use of the tooth brush. And
instead of the usual thirty seconds
which suffices the average man or
woman. from three to five minutes
with the tooth brush would be good
deal more nearly the proper period.
The tooth brush should be clean
and new. Starting then with
clean brush and good paste or powd-
er, how shall we BRUSH our teeth?
up and down" you say, instead of
merely across" So far so good; but
that does not tell the whole story.
The gums are the foundation of
healthy teeth. and the ordinary tooth
brush user either neglects them en-
tirely or uses his brush in such a
way as to encourage them to recede.
The brushing should start in the
valley of the mouth between the
gums and the lips and should assume
a circular or rolling motion. When
the lower teeth have been cleansed
inside and out, from the bottom of
the gums up, the upper jaw should
receive the same attention, from the
tops of the gums down. And after
this is over. If the finger be mois-
tened with a good wash, and min
ute or two spent is massaging the
gums. pressing them up tight against
the lower teeth and down tight a.
gainst the uppers, it will prove in
the long run to be the best invest
ment of time that anyone can make.
The gums will bleed little in the
process at first. If they persist in
doing so. it is a sign that they are
not as healthy as they ought to be,
and the aid of the dentist should be
invoked. 1t is sign of inflammation,
which will not be healed until the
excess blood is lost, and the gums
up and allowed to fit in
tight around the roots of the teeth
again.
The amount of necessary filling
and extracting will be far smaller in
the next generation if every child can
be taught how to brush his teeth and
how much.
My next article will be on "Why
Teeth are Irregular.
