Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

The care of the teeth begins be-
fore the child is born. The mothers $
diet should contain the correct foods
for her own nourishment so that she
may supply the developing child with
them. Children whose teeth are
ridged and spotted or decay early
prove that some time during the pre-
natal period the mothers diet was
inadequate in some way.
The first teeth begin to form six
weeks after conception; the second
teeth during the latter months of
pregnancy. The first teeth make
their appearance in the mouth about
five or six months after the baby is
born, so that whether these are
strong and white depends not so
much on the diet during the first
five months. though this is important.
too, as during those months of preg-
nancy.
Daily care of the teeth should be-
gin as soon as they appear. This
means keeping them free from food
particles. The green. stain which
sometimes appears on a. child's teeth
is due to a deposit formed by the
saliva. The daily use of a soft tooth
brush or a bit of cotton dipped in
powdered chalk. or any good pre-
pared tooth paste, will prevent this
green stain from forming.
Food particles allowed to remain
in the crevices of the teeth turn acid
and eat into the enamel. After the
hard enamel Is destroyed the work
of decay goes on rapidly. If these
holes" go untitled the food collects
in them and likewise decays. This
decay mixes with the food eaten and
is swallowed.
Teach the child early to have pride
in his teeth. Undoubtedly healthy
mouth. with sparkling white teeth, is
one of the most priced health and
beauty assets.
Mrs. S. H--The baby has made a
fine gain. If the baby does not take

Alicia had seen them, however. She
had seen Nan fly into Martins arms
and cling about his neck. She had
seen the look in Martins eyes as he

Must Gain Trust
Success in portrait painting rests
first of all on the artists ability to
grasp personalities, to, strike the
note that makes the model comfort
able and gains his trust.
THE Empress and Emperor of
China are the most friendly, child

always I have found great person
ages approachable.
people told NE that President
Coolidge was cold and difficult to
talk to. Therefore, when he sat for
me, I worked silently, believing him
lost in thought. Suddenly he said:
Your hair is just the color of mine!'
He was as pleased with the idea that
both of us had orange hair as a
child might have been"
Chinese women and some Euro
peans have delicate features, ex-
quisite coloring and fragility," she
says. But none of them know life
as American women know 1t.
Though the portrait of the Chinese
empress illustrates how beautiful the
Manchu women may be, Mrs. Jacobs
believes that the finest feminine faces
In the world are American.
Americans Know Life
"The sheltered life of the Chinese
empress, for example, produces a
face as pretty and as quiet as that
of doll. But in comparison, a WON
an like Ethel Barrymore or Alice
Longworth can lay claim to far
greater beauty. Their faces show

ence.
Whereas Oriental women worship
beauty for itself. American women
want their faces to show intelligence
Alice Roosevelt, however, was the
only woman of any race who actually
asked me not to soften a single line
in her face. I am 40, and want to
look 49, she said, and she meant It.. -
The best model, according to Mrs
Jacobs standards, is a man Of so or

the finest sitter she has ever met
was Uncle Joe" Cannon, whose face
at 80 showed the refining and deep

AS a connoisseur of human beings
the portrait painter prefers char
