SHOULD THE DEAD" TOOTH BE
 EXTRACTED?

If dentors were doctors as they should be, the controversy concern ing pulpleSs, devitalized or dead" teeth would soon be settled. Today 1t depends on the predilections or prejudices of the dentor one hap pens to consult, whether a tooth in which the nerve" has been killed that is, the pulp destroyed-Shall be left in the jaw or extracted forthwith. Sometimes it seems a gauge of the dentor's doctoral com- petence, the attitude he takes in this controversy. Too often he is arbitrary, either condemning all such teeth to extraction or imply ing that no operator who knows his business will ever extract a pulpless tooth just because it is pulpleSs tooth.
 I believe every tooth that ren- ders good service, whether it is ones own or one made by ones dentor, is worth at least a thousand dollars. As juror I would con- scientiously award a minimum of a thousand dollars compensation for the loss of a tooth in any cir- constance. This notwithstanding that think it is silly to brush ones teeth or to use any kind of den- trifice in the care of the teeth. People are gullible about this. There is only one way to keep the teeth clean, free fror tartar or other harmful deposits and free from destructive decay, and that it by going to ones dentor at regular intervals for cleaning, polishing, filling of any slight cavities, or whatever prophylactic treatment the dentor deems advisable. Of course nutrition is an even more important factor than the regular inspection and care by the dentor,

A YOUNG man, l hear, recently
sued for an alimony-free divorce
from his wife because she was no
longer the slim, shapely damsel he
had promised to "love, honor and
obey. She had, it seems, gained
a tremendous amount of excess
poundage during their rather brief
marital existence, and because of
her fondness for food, she refused
fatty to do anything about it.
The lad won his divorce-and
that doesn't surprise me too much.
[ don't think any man would relish
being married to a girl who is
determined to rival the Fat Lady
of the circus. But am surprised
at the girl, for can't imagine any
woman being so lacking in pride as
to permit herself to approach the
over-heavyweight class without
making at least an effort to retain
her slender lines.
I know, of course, that some
women get much pleasure out of
foods, and consequently find it
difficult to resist those tempting
dishes that lead them on the road
TO stoutness. But, as many charm
ing actresses of stage and screen
fame will tell you, a little will
power is grand thing. 1t is
good thing to go on modified
liquid diet when you begin to ac-
quire excess poundage.
A well-known authority has out
lined five-day diet that is not only
supposed to reduce weight, but is
also designed to correct the over
fed system at the same time. This
diet, of course, Is not suitable for
every obese person. What is one
mans meat Is another mans
poison, you know. But it is ideal
for the normally healthy girl whose
fatness Is due to too great liking
for good food.
FIRST DAY
Breakfast: Prunes, orange juice,
and two tablespoons of bran with
milk. Lunch: Combination salad,
lemonade, and two tablespoons of

bouillon, peas and carrots, and two

Breakfast: Applesauce, orange
juice, and two tablespoons of bran

lettuce salad, tea with lemon, and

THIRD DAY
Breakfast: Grapefruit, orange
juice, and two tablespoons of bran
with milk. Lunch: Tomato salad,
whole wheat toast, lemonade, and
two tablespoons of bran with milk.
Dinner: Vegetable bouillon, broc-
coli, turnips, and two tablespoons
of bran with milk.
FOURTH DAY
Breakfast: Fresh pineapple,
