DENTIST
ON CARE OF Teeth

The Ely News Of recent date con-
tains the following:
DR.. Mabel X. Young, the Eureka
dentist. gave talk to the ladies of
Lund Thursday afternoon, embracing
many important things. Her subject
was Oral Hygiene and Mouth Clean
liness."
DR.. Young says her experience has
been that mothers do not know the
Importance of giving the proper at
tention to their children's mouths
and teeth. Zoo many of them are
inclined toward the old-fashioned
idea that mature should take care of
the teeth" She explained in full that
when the world was first begun ma
ture did take care of the teeth. while
the primitive manner Of living was
exercised and natures laws obeyed,
but nature had long since shifted
that responsibility, so some one must
take care of them.
She went into detail, beginning
with the history from the earliest
ages to the present time, showing the
difference and why the teeth need
more attention now, and the import
ance of taking care Of the mouth and
teeth, that each generation exhibits
softer teeth which are more subject
to decay.
d. Young also explained, with the
discovery of the meteorological or
ganisms and the startling results of
the medical research report some
years ago. that a large percentage of
the disease-producing bacteria were
found to originate in the mouth.
showing the necessity of taking care
of the teeth and mouth. She also ex-
planned the effects of pyorrhoea on
the stomach and the system In gen.
eral, the effects of an unclean mouth
on the development of pyorrhoea and
in many cases the direct cause of
pyorrhoea. DIR. Young claims a child
should be taught to use toothbrush
at the age of three years. and parents
should teach them to believe it is as
necessary as eating their meals.

IMPORTANT MININGN NBE6SlQN
Mining Claim Must Be Distinctly Marked On the Veynd 5
Th.. 1t. Bound.ris. May Be Readily

Washington. Feb. 2s.-The United
States Supreme Court to-day reversed
the ruling OF the circuit court of ap-
peals in the case Of the Silver King
Coalition Mines Company versus the
Conkling Mining Company. and held
in effect that the Conkling Company
has no title to that part of the dis
puted Conkling lode claim lying out
side the limits of that claim as mark
ed on the ground by monuments.
The fact that the patent issued by
the land department described
claim fifteen hundred feet long,
whereas the claim actually marked
by boundaries was 1855 feet short Of
that. did not convey patent for the
full fifteen hundred feet. the court
holding that the monuments marking
corners are the governing factor
when there is a conflict between the
survey and the worded patent.
TEXT Is GIVEN
The decision of the court, which.
in effect. afiirms the original decision
by the district court, was handed
down by Justice Holmes as follows:
This is case in equity brought
by the respondent, the Conkling Min
ing Company. in order to establish its
right to large body of ore found un-
der the southwesterly 1866 feet Of
its patent as laid out by courses and
distances, and to obtain an account
from the petitioner. which has mined
the ore. making a claim of right on
its side.
"The district court dismissed the
bill. The decree was reversed by the
circuit court of appeals. Thereupon
writ of certiorari was granted by
this court. A short statement will be
enough to present the single issue
that it is necessary to pass upon here.
"The only ground upon which the
Conkling Mining Company stands is
that the ore within the lines of its
patent, extended verticallydownward.
If the patent properly construed does
not cover the land in question, the
case is at an end.
PATENT is QUOTED
"The patent under which the Conk-i
ling Mining Company gets its title
was granted to the Boss Mining Com
pany, and SO far as material is as fol-
lows:
ut recites that in pursuance of the
revised statutes, etc., there have been
deposited In the general land office of

SUPPORT THIS MOVEMENT.

The Chelan County tuberculosis
the Chelan County tuberculosis
Leagues campaign for the sale o.
Christmas seals is on, and number
of the ladies of the city have been de-
voting considerable portion of their
time to the sale, and will continue in
this service for the sale does not close
until Christmas day. Both seals and
health bonds are being sold. The
schools are also helping in this sale.
Statistics obtained from life insur-
ance companies prove, it is sad, that
one-half of the deaths between the
ages of twenty and thirty-fve are due
to tuberculosis, and the receipts from
the sale of Christmas seals are used
to employ specialists and nurses to
discover and exercise control over per-
sons having tuberculosis and to teach
others to guard against infection.
Therefore, since the campaign against
this insidious and dreadful disease is
left to be financed by private means,
everyone should contribute according
to his ability, thus assuring that those
persons who are giving literally OF
their time to the campaign may real
ize that their efforts meet with pub
lie approval, and the necessary funds
provided to ensure that necessary
are taken against the dread
ed disease.

COMMITTEE VISITS
COUNTY BOARD At
WfNATCHff WE'D.
GRAVEL ROAD TO PESHASTlN
NJ. f. CHURCH AND PAVING
PERHAPS-SOME DAY. LOCAL
MEN ARMED WITH FIGURES.

The committee designated by the
| Commercial Club to interview the
county board relative to the paving
| of the road from here to Peshastin,
went to Wenatchee Wednesday, morn
! ing and appeared before the board
The whole matter, viewed from the
Peshastin-Leavenworth point, was
/; id belrre the commissi JnerS and ac-
cording to our information, definite
/ lans Of the board wera announced.
As given us the, county board said
they would expend about $4,000 of
the road and bridge fund of Dist. No.
2 the coming year on the road be-
tween here and Peshastin (meaning,
we presume, the NJ. f. church corner
south of Peshastin). The road is to be
completed as to grade and bridges and
raveled, and they told the commit
tee that in all probability they will
pave this stretch of road within the
rext two or three years, and said
that when it was paved the bridge
just below town will be moved farth-
er up to the point desired by the COM
munity.
The committee was armed with fig
ures, and the following are given to
make it clear that this part of the
county is not asking for something to
which il is not entitled
The total assessed valuation of the
county is s22,112,763.
The valuation of Wenatchee is So
189,802, which, deducted from the to-
tai valuation of the county, leaves
5,922,961.
In this district (taking one half the
valuation of Cashmere and all that
westward) we are said to have a val
uation of S6,S20,92s. or over two-ffths
of the total valuation of the county
outside Wenatchee.
Out of the total bond issue of $780,
900 it is said that we have received
about $48,000 and that there is bal
ance of about $4,000 which is to be
expended in what may be termed the
Peshastin-Leavenworth section, (this
side of Cashmere), making in all,
when SO expended, some S65,OOO or
$1,000.
In ether words, the balance of the
county outside of Wenatchee, with a
valuation of s9,1O2,O33, or less than
three-fifths, has benefited to the ex-
tent OF about s75OOOO from the bon
issue, while we with over two-ffths
Of the valuation will have received
only about $65,0O0 to $1,000
1t should not be considered that
anyone here expects that in building
roads those in authority will begin at
the outside and work towards the CEN
ter of population. nor do we lose sight
of the fact that the road from the
Peshastin church to Leavenwoith is
not state road. But it is the main.
direct road connecting a large AMI
important section of the county with
the county seat, and as such, is en-
titled to the same consideration after
an election as that promised when
votes were wanted-a square deal.
Leavenworth is not alone interest
ed in this stretch of road. The Lake
Wenatchee, Merritt, Chiwaukum, Chi
wawa, Plain, Chumstick and Eagle
Creek districts all are vitally inter
ested as well as are the thousands of
persons from down the valley who
drive to Lake Wenatchee and other
points in this upper country.
