Religious controversies. so long

before the end of the year.
The sway today is a fortunate one
for writing letters, unless the letters
carry love message, which will not
be well received.
There is a good sign for whatever

charity.
Again new movements for the re-
lief of the penniless are foreshadow-
ed.
Deprivation and want again will
make themselves felt by all classes.

Crime will continue to be more

"Your Teeth"
FIRST STAGE OF THE DECAY
OF THE TEETH
Inlays i'm Teeth

An inlay is a filling that is made
outside of the mouth and when FIN
ished is fastened in the tooth cav
ity with a dental cement. The max
ing of inlays is a very ancient pro-
cess that was a lost art for many
centuries. The Aztecs of old Mexico
used a green stone inlay in their
teeth. The green stone was not used
to stop cavities as we use inlays,
but val purely decorative. The AZ
tee nobility had fanciful designs cut
in their teeth. probably tribal marks
on the order of our coat of arms,
then the green stone was cleverly
cut to fit the cavity and cemented
with a very durable transparent CO.
ment. The durability of these pre-
historic inlays is proved by the fact
that there are in existence a num-
Der of Aztec skulls with the green
stone still firmly in place.
Inlays of porcelain were the first
to be made in modern times. Por-
celain was used because 1t can be
made to closely approximate the
color and characteristics of the ma
tural teeth. The process of making
a porcelain inlay is very difficult but
the result is so satisfactory that
many are made for filings where
gold would be Objectionable.
The gold inlay is now very wide
ly used. There + many ways to
make them but the object is the
same; that is, to perfectly fill the
cavity. to restore the original con-
tour, and to be durable. All of these
things a gold inlay does. The NINA
ture casting that is required to make
a gold inlay is an art of modern
times. Gold inlays are made with
remarkable accuracy, and as they
are made outside of the mouth. they
are much less painful than gold fill
ings that must be malleted into the
tooth. Whether a good gold inlay
is better for the tooth than a gold
filing that is also good, is not yet
decided. I would say that either one
n all right,
