For Baby

"A tiny, single row tooth brush
should be used for the baby after
the first eight teeth are fully erupt.
ed. Previous to this time, a piece
OF clean gauze or cotton wrapped
around the mothers finger and
dipped in a solution of one half level
teaspoon Of salt to one glass Of cold
boiled water should be used to swab
out the mouth. For the 2-year-old
child, a small brush within tufts OF
bristles set far apart and Of me,
dunn stiffness should be used
ITO keep free from germs. the
bristles Of all tooth brushes should
be covered with salt and the brushes
hung up to dry in the sunshine and
air after each using.
THE child's teeth should receive
their first examination when the
child is between the ages of > and
; years. BY this time he should have
twenty temporary teeth to be kept
clean and free from cavities. If
there are any discolorings ON the
surface of the teeth that indicate
decay, preventive cleanings or slight
medical treatments will go far to-
ward warding off toothaches and
other discomforts. With the arrival
Of the first permanent teeth about
the sixth year, it is all the more
necessary that the child should eat
plenty of coarse foods, not only for
exercise, but to keep the teeth pol
ished. Examination of the teeth
should be made every three months
throughout childhood and twice
yearly for adults.
Special emphasis is placed on the
care of children's teeth by the com
mittee because it feels that the real
field for preventive dentistry is not
so much for the adult mouth but
is at the very source where the evil
originates, and that is in the child's
mouth"

Proper Diet Needed

%ObserVance of the following
rules will do much to remedy such
situations as this" the statement
continued First, in order to
supply the necessary mineral salts
and vitamines needed to keep the
teeth we'll nourished and less liable to
decay, one must have a proper diet.
This should consist Of milk
and other dairy products, fresh
vegetables, particularly green leafy
ones, fruits, meats. eggs, and whole
grain breads and cereals. The part
that fresh air, plenty of sunshine,
and rest, plays in the development
Of good teeth cannot be overem.
phasizeds
Secondly, all foods must be chewed
well, not only to obtain good
digestive results, but to give the
teeth plenty Of exercise.
Third, see that every surface of
every tooth is cleaned every time
twice daily. The scrubbing of the
teeth should consume at least a
minute and a half for best results.
For the average adult person. a
medium hard brush should be used.
IF one cannot procure prepared
dentifrices, a pinch of salt is a good
substitute for cleansing the teeth.
Rolling, circular, or up and down
strokes of the brush should he used.
To further insure good mouth con.
ditions, the tongue also should re
ceive two or three light strokes Of
the brush.

For a girls natural coquetry makes

She may not even recognize this

And when her spoken commands
are obeyed. she's as liable as not TO
change her mind completely in the

poor male of the species knows not
what to believe and decides anew
that he cannot understand the

Art of Winking

Dear Miss Lee: There are two questions
wish you would please answer for me-
When a fellow winks at a girl should she
wink back? Do boys like fat girls?
That depends. Both of the ques-
tions. If the boy is teasing and just
winks good-naturedly 70 let the girl
know that it's all a joke, there's no
reason why she shouldn't wink back
in understanding. But if the boy is
winlsing at a strange girl to be flirta-
tious, she shouldn't. Now that's all
cleared up! AS for fat girls, if they're
awfully good company, clever, witty
and letsNof fun, most often they do.
But very young boys are not to be
attracted by fat girls-they're too
much afraid of being made fun of
by the other boys.
