CARE SAVES Teeth

Dentists, for some time. have been
advising the use OF milk of magnesia
as a mouth wash, because this liquid
reaches every exposed part OF the
teeth, counteracts acid mouth. makes
the saliva alkaline and thus prevents
the principal cause of decay. Still
better is the use of the new tooth
paste which contains milk of mag

in Ireland at the present time. He
declared that he supported the pro-

doing its best to botain freedom for

Sir Horace added that the present

Pawtuckct. II. l.. April .5.--The cit
liens OF Pawtucket were aroused to-
night at 10 o'clock and again at IL
o'clock by two loud explosions which
We're heard throughout the city. Hun
dreds of people poured into the streets
to learn the source OF the reports. and
it was two hours before the police
were able TO locate the scenes OF the
explosions.
A rent in the roof of the Jenckes
Spinning company plant about two
feet long was the first clue. The po-
lice found that bomb had been
thrown upon the roof. making the hole
and breaking a number OF windows,
but without doing material damage TO
the machinery within. No one was
in the building at the time.
Operatives at this mill have been on
strike for II weeks and the mill has
been the scene of most o. the tro,ibis
in this city since the inception of the
strike against the 20 per cent. wage

The scene of the second bomb ex-
plosion was the Crown Mfg. COM

Jenckes plant. Police found that a
bomb had been hurled 10 n cement
platform near the plant and that tho
only damage was the breaking OF is
large windows.

vicinity of the Crown plant a few
minutes before. He said that when
he passed lie heard voices behind

that they were strike sympathlzers.

Lloyd George Says
London Papers Report
Genoa Meet Untrue

Genoa, Apr. 25--Premier Lloyd
George today requested the British
press to appeal to the British pub
lie to disbelieve anything it reads In
the London Times or the London
Daily Mail concerning the Genoa
conference. The premier asserted
that the Daily Mail had printed a
statement that he had conferred
secretly with Leonid krassin. one of
the Russian delegates and promised
to wipe out the Russian war deb,s.
This and many other statements,
which Mr.. Lloyd George alleger were
untrue. have appeared. he declared,
in the London Times and the Daily
Mail and have missed the British and
French public.
Mr.. Lloyd George said that if the
charges made against him by the
Times and Mail were presented IN
parliament he would answer them
and give the British public the full
truth. The efforts of the Britain to
get the French to understand the
British attitude toward Russia, have
in the opinion Of the British dele
gates been greatly hampered by
hostile press.
The French public, continued Mr..
Lloyd George. is apparently convinc-
ed that the Russo-German treaty is
in some way the outcome of the
Genoa conference and this belief is
being fostered by the press unfriend-
~ to the conference.
1t is the belief Of the British del
egation that if the comparatively
prosperous countries leaves Germany
and Russia in isolation and misery
they will develop fierce friendship
which will be directly against the
whole of the west. The British del
cgates, therefore say they will have
nothing to do with a policy which
may bring about such results. While
the British announce that they are
not afraid Of q German or Russian
menace, they are determined to do
their utmost to prevent Europe from
being turned into SHAMELESS: con-
sequently they wish. If possible to
make peace with Russia regardless
of the character of its government.

In his work in the West in those
early days Mr.. Heminger had some in
tercsting experiences he will ALIVE s
remember. When in Kansas he was
engaged in building line from SYRIA
cusc, Kan, to Lal;in, Kan. a distance
of 105 miles. There was only a small
town between these two places. One
day while at work Mr. Heminger was
overtaken by a sandstone. He was
driving a fractions team of ':orses; it
was getting late in the day. The neck
yoke broke, letting the pole down be-
tween the horses and they ran away.
Mr.. Heminger was thrown out and
three ribs were broken. He managed
to catch his team and walked nine
miles to Lakin before he reached shell
ter. lie was taken to Coolidge, Kan,
by train and was laid up for a few
weeks.
Another experience was that of at
lacking a diamond-backed RATHER with
pair OF trimming shears. He was in
cart and the snake was coiled by
the wayside. Mr.. Heminger took the
big shears, such as are used in prun-
ing, and reached out to attack the rep
tile. The snake struck at the shea rs
and somehow Mr. Heminger shipped
off the rattle and has it IN his posses
sion now. Then he and another man
followed up the attack ana killed the
snake His most peculiar experience,
however. was with a buffalo snake
These great adders are six or eight
feet long with tail shaped like a
club. They can easily knock a buffa-
10 down, but they are harmless to hui
mans. Mr.. Heminger was with a
friend who thought he would have
some fun. They We're riding along and
saw the great snake stretched across
the road. At first he looked Is if he
were dead. His friend told Mr.. Hem
niger to strike the snake with his
whip back of the head and kill him.
| Mr.. Heminger attempted to do the
| trick and the next moment he was on
his back on the ground md thu snake
crawling over him. He managed to
struggle to his feet and was promptly
| knocked down by one lash of the adj
| dcrs tail. AS soon as the friend had
enjoyed the spectacle enough he
stepped up and, deity cracking the
reptile on n certain spot at the base
| of it's head with the butt of his whip,
he released Mr.. Heminger from his I'M
pleasant situation.
Mr.. Hemingcr also killed Il mountain
| lion which was ready to leap from a
| tree to attack. Mr.. Hcminger owns
up to the fact that this was more by
good luck than anything else, for the
rifle ball went through the creatures
| throat and out at the base of the skull.
AS soon as he fired he ran with his
companion. and n crew with lion
| hounds came out to see the result.
| They found the animal dead a short
/ distance from where the shot was
| fired.
In all his experience as a lincman
! or construction foreman Mr.. Heminger
has met with only one bad accident.
Eight years ago he fell off a ladder
and broke his left ankle and the bones
of his foot, and was incapacitated for
five months.
