SUMMERTIME
BY d. c. PEATTIE.
Touch Not.

In the low, rich woods along the
Potomac, and the alluvial thickets of
Analostan Island, dim now with
heavy foliage, but luminous with a
gentle emerald light, look this week
for the touch-me-not or jeWelWeed.
one of the strangest little flowers
that grows. You may find the COM
mon sort. with orange petals thickly
Strewn with spots of reddish brown.
or. if luckier. you will chance upon
the rarer sort that has clear lemon
yellow flowers.
Every year the jewelweeds come
up in a different place. for they are
but ANIMALS, never growing again in
exactly the same spot.
Up from the soft, mucky soil, the
straight stems push, slender and
watery almost to transparency, and
at the summit nod the curious little
spurred blossoms on threadform
stalks, so slender that 1t seems as
though even a June breeze would dis
lodge them. Each flower is like a
tiny trumpet, with flaring lips and
narrow tube. Into these slender sal
vers the butterflies send Gown long,
curling tongues to sip the dewy nee
tar of the flower.
But when the flowers have faded
and the seeds are set we may dis
cover the origin of the curious name
of touch-me- not, for at the least con-
tact. the mere brushing of passing
animal or man, the Utilization of the
finger, the seed pods burst open from
the force of tiny coiled springs re-
leased, throwing the seeds far out into
the air.
The sensitive plant is centainly
sensitive, but the touch-me-not is the
TOUGHEST plant in the vegetable king
dom. Unlike very touchy people,
however. it has some method in it's
madness, for it is hard to surpass
this clever method of dispensing the
seeds of a plant which have no down
to aid them, as have the milkweed
and the thistle.

good from both the health and the
beauty point Of view. To be good
looking your mouth must have strong,
clean, even teeth. With the x-ray's
aid, your dentist can prevent troubles
that might lead to false teeth and the
resultant ugly sunken mouth. So, If
possible, have this done, 1t is more
than worth the expense.
To keep your teeth in good condi
ton, learn to like coarse foods that
clean the teeth in Natures way

toast, salads and such things. Clean
the teeth after breakfast and before
bed, with stiff brush having a blob
on the end, so 1t will reach all the
spaces between the teeth. Use an an.
tiseptic gargle nightly.

pimples reinfect the skin so that they
continue to break out even though
your system has been cleared of the
trouble that caused them at first. TRY
an ointment in which there is some
sulphur, or just dust some flour of

can keep them covered with it for an
hour or two.

Teeth.

So many troubles have been traced
to the teeth lately that most good doc
tors are sending their patients for
thorough dental examinations when
ever they suspect any sort OF septic
center in the system. A tooth with
dead nerve, or a crown tooth, can be
the cause of such apparently unre-
lated troubles as boils or anemia, or
even worse ailments, and of any num-
ber of minor complaints. Even the
best dentist cannot trace these septic
foci, as the doctors call them, without
the aid of the X-ray.
So, if you have some stubborn phys
ical trouble, and yet apparently the
healthiest teeth, ask your physician
or your dentist whether an X-ray
would not be advisable. For your
comfort, in case you have never had
it done, the taking of x-ray pictures
is neither terrifying nor painful. You
bite on a wedge of wood holding a
tiny film, and the picture is taken
without your knowing it at all or feel
ing anything.
Such a thorough examination of the
teeth as only the X-ray can give is

Little Mrs. Chipmunk ran along on

John Risko, the Cleveland Hun

the promise Of another match with

Tex Richard, New York promoter,
desires to show Tunney in Gotham
with an aggressive battler and he is
thinking of using Risko against
Gene. Risko and Tunney met in
Cleveland some time ago and the
Hungarian gave the New Yorker a
hard fight, though losing on points.
Risko is rugged, aggressive and a
good puncher. He also is young,
and is not easily marked up.
To Try for X. o.
With the Tunney match in view.
Risko is taking no chances on losing
to Virgins here New Years day and
will extend himself in an effort to
boost his prestige by scoring a
knockout on the Hoosier light heavy.
Risko will have a big advantage in
weight and he means to use it. He
is working out in Cleveland with
Mike Wallace, Johnny Klesch,
Johnny Horvath and Jim Jackson,
a colored heavyweight.
Virgins is training at the Arcade
