SECRETS OF
HEALTH
BY Dr.. G. "A. =. Reed

/ You may be the unsuspecting
victim Of infection either in or
around your teeth. say nm.
suspecting because, very often,
there Il no pain to attract your
attention To these conditions, Ut
least until they are very far al
vanced. An infection established
in childhood may persist into
adult life as constant focus Of
systemic poisoning
Dental disease, observes CoIlyer,
makes great inroads upon the
health Of the child, and although
school authorities make great ef-
forts to preserve the teeth Of
pupils, the child OF pre-school age
tends to be neglected. The main
damage to the teeth OF the school
child and adult is attributable to
neglect in pre-school days.
The way teeth decay Is that
sugary and starchy foodstnfts
lodge between or on the teeth.
Microscopic organisms ferment In
this food and tactic acid is formed.
The acid dissolves the calcium In
the enamel and later In the den
tine beneath.
The organic matter that re-
mains is split up by the same or
ganisms. Starchy food has formed
part of the diet of man for many
generations, yet only within the
last hundred years has tooth de-
cav become prevalent. The an
swer 10 this apparent paradox Is
that foodstuffs prepared by moo
ern methods lose their fibrous
narts and so are more liable TO
cling about the teeth. Our 1000

But sentimentalityth that's some
thing else again.
SENTIMENTALITY rs THE
PINK SMOKE BY WHICH WE
MASK REALITY AND IT'S
BAD MEDICINE.
For example, one should encour-
age a fine sentiment about some
mothers, but it's plain t0mmyrot
to be sentimental about all moth
ers.
SOME MOTHERS ARE UP
STANDING CITIZENS. SOME
MOTHERS ARE STRIKERS.
There's the truth. It's a most
uncomfortable truth to face and
it will make lot OF ladies mad.
But the madness of few ladies
is as nothing in comparison with
the misery caused by maternal
strikers. And we'1T never cure
that misery until we cut out the
pretty speeches about mamas and
tackle the grim reality of laziness.
Ignorance and selfishness which
underlies certain types Of mother
ing.
We're sentimental about a lot Of
things besides Dear Old Mother.
We're sentimental about Families
in general. Families are a darl-
ing thing to think about and be-
long to-at a distance. But the
truth is that family relationships
raise more varieties OF hell than
Lucifer ever dreamed OF. And
Wen never have well organized,
harmonious human society until
we stop being sentimental about
family life and learn how to man
age it.
We're sentimental about Mar
riage. At present, the legal as
poets OF American marriage are
all haywire. No department of
our lives is In such dangerous dis
order. But just try and discuss
marriage in a businesslike manner

WHAT FOLLOWS
AFTER DEATH

1.-THE First Five Minute After
Death was the subject of DR.. E. E.
Violette last night at the Christian
church. He said he had given more
time in the study of life after death
than to any other question, due, no
doubt, to the fact that there had been
SO many losses in his immediate 1anl-
lily. The speaker spoke of how people
longed for more knowledge about the
hereafter. especially after they had lost
their loved ones He said after fun
eral once a man came to him and said,
If 1 knew what you said were true
about the life hereafter l would be
willing to crawl on my hands and
knees from New York to San Francisco
to gain more knowledge Aaboltt it."
This he said, Indicates how the
human heart hungers for life eternal"
Referring to Gods statement to
Adam and Eve "In the day thou eat
est of the fruit of the tree, thou shalt
surely die,'. Doctor Violette said, "They
did not die physically. Whenever you
find the word death" in scripture,
strike it out and put in the word
oA40 yOA 4AcbNC OAAO AASAAO
idea. Wherever you find the word
sin strike it out and put in the word
'transgression' and you have the right
idea, for sin is the tranSgreSsion of
the law Wherever you find the word
salvation put in its place delivered
which is being brought back to god,'
after having been separated by SIM
DR.. Violette told the story of a,
Scotchman, strong believer in Christ,
who when dying spoke to his wife as
if he were going away on happy
Journey His wife asked him if he
thought they would know each other
over there. He replied: Don't we
know each other here? Do you think
we will know less where everything is
knOwn?" "This argument" said the
speaker, '.is enough on that subject
without preaching a sermon on it"
Death said Dr. Violette, '..does not
bring us any nearer God than we are
now. We are as near Him in this life
as we will ever be but the trouble is
we do not realize it. There is a diff
ference between knowledge and real
ization.
"If all you people who are without
God realized that God is here you
would come forward on the first call
to accept His offer of love and par
don. The future life is not away out
yonder, it is with us and death is not
an awful mystery but life that occupies
the body, life which loves and rejoices
and sorrows is the great mystery. The
seventh chapter of Revelation is most
beautiful because it Identifies those in
robes of white and our loved ones
around the throne" !
There was an appreciative audience
present at 4 p. m. to hear Dr. Violette's
travelogue, eThe Tent Life of the
Arabs" He will deliver another
travelogue Friday at p. m. on, "The
Graveyard of Egypt
Tonight he will speak on ''The Price
of a Soul' from Luke 1th chapter
