Signals
of Pyorrhea
The Prudent Man and Woman win
Heed the Warming Signs Of
This Disease.

Pyorrhea heralds its own COM
ing. 1t does not attack its victims
unwarned. If these warning signs
are needed, untold future misery
is averted.
When the gums become tender
and bleed easily. When they are
pale, or recede from the teeth.
When gum boils and alterations
appear, watch cut for Pyorrhea, as
these are the first warnings Of its
attack.
In its earliest stages. Pyorrhea
is easiest checked, although there
is no reason to give up hope, or
teeth, even if it has reached an ad-
vanced style. Moore's Pyorrhea
Remedy, now obtainable at any
drug store, will positively and
promptly check the ravages of Py-
orrhea and bring a clean, sweet,
healthy mouth. Pain is soothed.
The gums become firm and pink,
loose teeth get tight, alterations
heal and all signs Of Pyorrhea dis
appear.
Druggists are authorized to re-
fund its purchase price in any case
when Moore's Pyorrhea Remedy
fails to give satisfaction. 1t can
be used on this basis. Made and

One of the most interesting local
developments of the d. A. r., issued
simultaneously with the gathering of
the congress. is the compilation of a
historical directory of the District OF
Columbia.
The book is a small one. but is fin-
ed from cover to cover with points of
interest about the city of Washing
ton. 1t is published by the state his
toric committee of the District of CO.
lumbia Daughters of the American
Revolution.
BY picking out pages at random. one
will discover facts about a heighbor-
hood corner. Those who have no
knowledge OF the historical signifi-
canoe of the land on which they are
living may obtain bright little mug
gets of local history.
For instance. take page 81, where at
d street. near 6th, daily scores of un
fortunates are set aside by the Police
Court from the community for viola
tions of one law or another. in one
day stood the old Webster law build
ing. leased by Daniel Webster in
1S4S. and in which he made a mem
orable speech in 1852.
Or: "E and 18th streets, northeast
corner. On this site stood the house
where James Mcneil Whistler, the ia
nous painter lodged"
There are scores of other interesting
points about the city of Washington
contained therein, and virtually every
neighborhood of the city is accounted
for in some manner.

regent of the District. is sponsor for
the book. The chapters contributing
