An Aid to Dental Health

For although eXpectant mothers
are not always aware of this i'm
portant fact, it is true that the
first or "baby" teeth are devel-
oped within the jaw during pre-
natal life, and the foundations for
the second set are also laid at this
time.
Unless the expectant mothers
diet is very generously supplied
with calcium, so as to allow ade-
quate amounts for the baby
teeth and bones, nature will en-
deavor to meet the child's require
ment by sacrificing calcium from
the mothers own body. If she
has no adequate reserve, then she
may be forced to lose ga tooth for
every child" or suffer even more
serious dental ills.

Richard Exon, poor young English.
man, befriends elderly Matthew Gering,
who at his death, gives him a statement
claiming he. Gering, is Rudolph Ebert
Virgil, Count of Brief. of ancient Austri-
an nobility who was betrayed 20 years
whose sentence for forgery he himself
served. Ferdinand appropriated his title
property and daughter. Before he dies,
Gering tells Exon there is a family secret
known only to the head of the house, to
be found in the great tower at Brief, by a
doorway none can ever find. Exon inherits
his uncle's fortune and sets out to right
Gering's wrongs. En- route he encounters
Percy Ebert Virgil, son of the villainous
Ferdinand and sees him in conference with
Inskip, diamond merchant. He engages a
valet, Winter. who hates Percy and meets
by chance at a garage, John 'Herrick, who
is a Gnguist and who as youth served as
a page at Gering's wedding, and had Wis.,
tied Brief. Herrick agrees to aid Exon.
They establish headquarters at Brenda

Brief and make their plans. They find the
castle almost inaccessible. They see a
closed car occupied by Percy Virgil. a
chauffeur and a woman Hearing a dog
scream, they see the chauffeur fiogging 1t,

her the story of her father and promises
to go the limit to help her right her ia

benefactor. Percy Virgil brings the police
to Raven, announcing that two strangers
are being sought for the kidnapping of Eliza

|WHAT to EAT and WHY

there are two toothbrushes, one
for night and one for morning, so
that it is never necessary to use
soggy brush. They must watch
when the supply of tooth paste or
powder runs low, and see that it is
replaced. For it is surprising how
few children can be persuaded to
brush their teeth properly without
an agreeable dentifrice! Mothers
should take care to choose dem
thrice that will preserve or re-
store luster in the teeth. For ado
lescents are extremely sensitive
about their appearance and they
must not be allowed to permit
dingy teeth to spoil their smiles.
If mothers will feed their ado
lescents correct diet and super
wise their daily dental care, the
coming generation will not only
be more attractive to look at but
should enjoy more abundant
health.

Results Of Calcium Deficiency

If her diet has been deficient in
calcium, for example, her pelvic
bones may be imperfectly devel-
oped, so that she suffers unneces-
sarily during the birth of her
child. And if liberal amounts of
calcium have not been stored in
her body, she may be called upon
to make needless sacrifices from
her own body in the interests of
her child. 1t is well known that if
an expectant mothers diet is not
abundantly supplied with calcium,
the substance will be withdrawn
from her own bones and teeth in
an effort to meet the needs of the
developing child.

way to the bedroom where Brenda
had set out some tea.
We had now been within the tower
for 80 hours, for more than 80 OF
which we had striven to find the door
way with all our might. And we
were no nearer our goal than when
we had bolted the doors and begun
our search. At most, ten hours were
left us, for by three on the following
morning we must be gone.
AS I stumbled into the bedroom,
Herrick opened his mouth. "We
have now eight hours in which to
discover secret we know is here.
Myself, I think we should do it: in
fact, if we don't, / shall think the
less of myself. When alls said and
done, it's question of using ones
brain. And that's where think
we've gone wrong. When our eyes
and our hands had failed US, we
ought to have let them be: to go on
using them was only distracting our
brains Well, I'm going to give
mine show now-before it's too
late"
With that, he walked into the
bathroom, to lave his head and his
hands, and I sank down on the bed
and did my best to marshal my
weary wits.
"He's right" said Elizabeth,
slowly. Zone always begins the
wrong way. Once we'd been over
the ground, we ought to have sat
down quietly and let our minds play
upon the puzzle. You know. Like
doing a crossword"
"That's all very WE'LL" said I, ac-
cepting some tea from Brenda, who
showed no sign of fatigue. "But
