Teeth are decidedly a permanent
part of your anatomy The skin and
lis cells change and with the constant
process of rebuilding we are praet-
csIly re-made every few years.
But after baby teeth have gone the
permanent set comes; and after that,
'syour teeth are your teeth, all your
Me"-unless by your neglect you lose
them.
The tooth-buds of the infant de-
velop preuatally, many months, in
fact, before the child is born. And
because of this development the ex-
pectant mother must begin to build
up in her own body the necessary
elements required by the child.
Calcium, which is richly present in
milk, is one of the most important
ingredients for the mother to intro
duce into her own system, for calcium
is an actual part of the teeth. If in
the last three months that the mother
is carrying her baby she does not
make up the terrific drain made upon
her own system for the development
of the teeth and bones of the unborn
child, her own bones will become soft
through the absorption of the lime
salts from them.
After the child is born its milk
teeth must be carefully attended to,
kept scrupulously clean by brushing
with a tiny brush apd a little milk of
magnesia as early as the first two

When the breakfast room is in
plain view from the dining room or
off the kitchen it is pleasantest to have
its color scheme in harmony with the
one so near it.
One attractive method of working
out the scheme is to use reverse
colors-that is, if the dining room
scheme uses a beige rug with ivory
walls and a great deal of soft blue
in the draperies, good combination
for the breakfast room might be: A
dull blue floor covering, furniture
painted soft French gray-blue, with
overcurtains having dull canary or
beige background and a pattern whose
design and coloring are in keeping
with those in the other room.

DAILY HEALTH SERVICE
Wrong Diet Lowers Resistance

( 1t is important to remember also
that even when the foods contain
all items necessary to a healthful
life, the body itself, because of dis
ease, may be unable to utilize the
materials that are necessary.
Specialists in diseases of children
are noting more and more that in
fants suffer with bad nutrition not
only because of badly chosen food,
but also because of bad diets OF
mothers who nurse them.
A partial deficiency of vitamin B
in the diet causes the infant to be
pale, fretful and to lose its appetite.
There seems to be plenty of evidence
that proper amount of vitamin B
is related definitely to the desire for
food.
If a person has an obstruction in
his bowel or a bowel so irritable
that the proper food substances

Pellagra is disease common III
the south, associated with eruption
on the skin, nervous disorders,
hemorrhages from the gums, and
similar symptoms.
According to the investigations
of DR.. Goldberger of the United
States Public Health service, the
feeding of the proper fraction of
vitamin B will control this dis
order.
A person who suffers from a
vitamin deficiency seems to lose
much of his resistance to infection.
Scientists are only beginning to
realize the actual Importance OF
such a dietary study.
The time will come when enough
knowledge will have been accumu-
lated to yield more healthful, bet

Scuttling Government Ships

Opposition to government ownership in the minds
The results of this near-mania, it afflicted the
Coolidge administration, revealed by Comp

The order was to get the government out of the
shipping business That done And in such
a way
Less than 4 per cent of the original cost OF the
vessels sold has been returned to the government.
The sale price of 321 vessels costing $40S062898
only $43962,3Os, and of that give-away price only
$15,413,919 has been collected
Sixty per cent of the feet corporations accounts
receivable have been put down doubtful or I'M
collectable accounts Large financial losses by the
government are charged by the comptroller general
to the sale of ships to irresponsible companies which
evidently would not or could not meet their obga-
tons under contract"
One line was sold for $325000 the government
paying an amount equal to half the cost price to
recondition the ships and in addition furnishing a
ten-year mail contract assuring the purchasers an
annual income of from $350,0o0 to $45OOo0 On that
deal the government has been paid only $28,674.
Some persons may see in this latest scandal proof
that the government is not efficient. But it looks
more like very efficient job of scuttling. Those
responsible were intent getting rid of the
ships at any cost than of protecting the public
