RECOGNIZED POWER OF MUSIC
In All Ages the Value of Sweet Sounds
Has Been Acknowledged
by the Wise.

A leading educatiOnalist has this to
say concerning the value of music:
II cannot think of an ideal home
without music, for it would surely be
very incomplete without it. To me-
the beauty of music cannot be de-
scribed in words. There seems to be
no state of mind that one can be in
in which music is not welcome. Even
in the Bible we read that David played
on the harp for Saul to quiet his
troubled mind. We need music every
day in our home more than any other
place, for the good of our mind and
body.
''The benefits of music are also
reaching the hospitals, the homes of
the sick, and busy people after a hard
days work find it refreshing to come
home and hear its soothing strains.
"We also enjoy music in our homes
of learning-the schools. The school
orchestra and the songs we sing in
assembly make us feel like starting
out on the days study in an excellent
mood"

MAKE EVERY SHAIE OF TOOTH
Mo3orn Dentist Able to Supply Every
Color of MoIar That May
Be Demanded.

The manufacture Of sets of jet
black false teeth represents an out
Of-the-way side of British enterprise.
1t will be news to most people that
there is a definite trade in black teeth
between England and the Orient, rem
dered necessary by the practice, so
popular east of Suez, of chewing betel
nut. AS masticatOry the betel nut
leaves chewing gum far behind, for
it is reckoned that one-tenth of the
human family indulge in it, but 1t
stains the teeth of its votaries black
as ebony. Hence, when they need ar
tificial teeth to replace losses, those
teeth must be black.
A definite side of modern dentistry
is represented by these black teeth.
No longer is it necessary for clients
to accept teeth which stand out in
challenging distinction to their neigh
bOrs and proclaim their artificiality
to the world. Every shade and shape
Is now matchable. Even the bo'Sun
who for thirty years has been Trolling
his quid" can be supplied with teeth
bearing the counterfeit stains of to-
baccO juice. The ordinary person has
% different shades at his disposal,
and shapes seem to be innumerable
Even teeth with make-believe gold
filings are supplied

The Maryland State Teachers As
ISOLATION will hold it's annual meet
ing in Baltimore, Friday and Satur-

be one of the largest attended meet

for the year is $1.00, the secretary of
the State association has asked me

American "MoIly Maquires."

The first organization known as the

Ireland, with the object, it is believed,
of generally misusing process-servers

blackened their faces, and otherwise
disguised themselves, the Detroit News

Women and Words.

A student who has given the matter
some study says that it is a perfectly
natural trait of femininity to engage
in small talk and quick talk Woman
is quicker to understand. quicker to
answer and quicker to utter what is
in her mind and is habtually vOluble.
The cause of this difference between
the speech or talk Of two sexes lies
far back into the occupational history
of each, but some great social changes
now in progress may modify the pres
ent condition.

Why Girls Don't Throw STRAIGHT.

1t has always been an interesting
fact that girls cannot throw straight.
There are two reasons. First, girls
clavicle or collar bone, being shorter
than boys, gives her smaller play
of forearm. Second, direction in over
hand throwing depends chiefly upon
the shoulders aud chest being carried
forward with the swing of the arm.
With a boy this is the heaviest part
of his body, but Il girl is heaviest at
the hips. Consequently, instead of
the girls body swinging straight for
ward, it frequently turns around at
the waist, thus completely spelling the
aim.

Polite to Make Noise While Eating


When an Abyssinian and his guest
sit down to the table woman is sta
toned on each side of them, not to
dine, but to see that they get plenty
to eat. These women cut the food and
cram it into the mouths of the men
with as much speed as possible.
TO show their appreciation of the
food which is set before them, the
AbyssinianS must make as much
noise as possible in eating The man
who can manage the largest bites and
make the most noise while doing so
is held in high esteem by his fellows,
and considered quite well bred.
The women vie with one another in
trying to see who can feed the
AbySsinian men the swiftest, and ex-
press keen pleasure when their par
