Why
Liquid Laxatives
are Back in Favor
~

The public is fast returning to the use
of liquid laxatives. People have
learned that the right dose of
properly prepared liquid laxative will
bring more natural movement with
out any discomfort at the time. or
after.
The dose of a liquid Laxative can be
varied to suit the needs of the in
dividual. The action can thus be
regulated. A child is easily given the
right dose. And mild liquid laxatives
do not irritate the kidneys.
Doctors are generally agreed that
SIENNA is natural laxative. 1t does
not drain the system like the cathar-
tics that leave you so thirsty. DR..
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a liquid
laxative which relies on SIENNA for its
laxative action. 1t gently helps the
average persons constipated bowels
until nature restores their regularity.
You can always get DR.. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin at any drug store. ready
for use.

Makes Powerful Light

Adding a minute part of a rare
metal, rubidium, to mercury usually
used in mercury lamps has resulted
in the development of lamp whose
light approximates sunlight. The
metal causes the lamp to give red
rays, in addition to the mercury
spectrum. The lamp is said to have
life ten times as long as an or
binary incandescent lamp. Rubidium
costs 81 dram, but only one five
hundredths part of the metal is used
in each lamp to change the light hue
from green to light red. Previously
physicists had improved the mercury
lamp by adding potassium to. the
mercury, but the potassium is said
to disintegrate the glass bulb or tube
of the lamp.-Popular Mechanics

Jersey State Dental Society.

Council on Mouth Hygiene, New
Jersey State Dental Society. =
A report emanating from the White
House conference on child health
held last year, includes the following
statement: ''Dental disease is pre-
ventable. 1t Is our duty to prevent
it," A broad statement but never
theless one that is consistent with
the facts.
AS individuals, we can eat the
proper foods, keep our mouths clean,
and obtain necessary dental care. In
this way, we can not only prevent
many dental defects, but also pre-
vent whatever defects do present
themselves from developing into
pathological or diseased conditions.
AS communities, we can disseminate
information that will help our chill
dren grow up with healthy mouths.
We can teach adults how to care
for their teeth and their children's
| teeth. Also, the communities can
provide dental treatment for indi-
gents.
Many people fear that dental dis
ease cannot be prevented. Most
dental authorities, however, take the
| position that at least 80 per cent of
our dental troubles can be, prevented.
Giving children adequate dietaries,
which should include a quart of milk
a day per child, vegetables, unsweet-
ened fruits, will help to provide the
elements to build sound teeth. At
| tention to the teeth every three
months is necessary if we are to pro-
tect the child's teeth. All irregulari-
| ties should be remedied. Children
should be taught the value Of keep
| ing their mouths clean. The reader
may say that this is pure theory, yet
whenever these practices have been
made a habit with children, we find
| them growing up with all teeth pres
ent and in healthy state.
l am familiar with group of
| children in a rural town, Clark town

| sive dental health program has been
followed for the last five years. Dur
ing the first year of the program it
was necessary to extract 124 per-
manent teeth among the 312 chill
| dren in attendance in that school.
This year, it was only necessary to
extract four permanent teeth among
these children. What is more sig
nificant--the teeth that were extract
ed, with the exception Of one, were
done for children who had recently
