The Road to Health
By DR. R. ALLEN GRIFFITH

TEETH AND VANITY
TWENTY-FIVE or thirty years ago
it was considered quite the thing to
have diamonds set in the teeth. About
the same time, too, even some of our
own American people had gold crowns
put on their front teeth to add to their
, attractiveness. A little later, several
American dentists did a land office 1
business in old Mexico grinding down
the front teeth of the peons and put
ting gold crowns on them. Many of
these peons would spend their last dol
lar for a gold crowa And these were
nearly always put on perfectly sound
j teeth.
The mouth Is the most expressive or- i
gan of the human body. What Is more
attractive than smiling Hps with a per- I
feet set of clean, white teeth? Most j
people could have beautiful teeth if
they would only give them the necea
sary time and attention. My iaay some
times spends a fortune for a string of
pearls and neglects the real pearls
which are in her mouth. Teeth, care- |
fully polished and free from decay,
| have much of the sheen of the pearl, j
and should be far preferable. t
Teeth are the first organ of digestion,
j Poorly cheyed food places an enor
mous strain on the digestive system.
Not only does the person lose much of
the food value, but serious digestive
disorders may result
The average Individual does not real
ize the value of either teeth or health
until they are lost Then he makes
frantic efforts to regain what Is too
frequently gone forever, when a little
prevention in the beginning would have
| preserved both.
Vanity, alone, should prevent the
very absurdities noted above. Even
the loss of a single back tooth will
show in a photograph. The teeth form
a perfect arch and any single tooth \
removed from that arch will cause a
change in its form. In the same way,
should a brick or a stone be allowed
to distintegrate In an architectural
arch. It will cause the arch to gradunl
J ly collapse.
Porcelain teeth are made nowadays
to take the place of teeth "lost" from
any cause. The art of "dental cer
amics" has reached a stage where the
artificial is hard to tell from the nat
ural. Vanity Is unquestionably the
cause of this high degree of perfection,
but no artificial tooth Is ever as good
as the natural.
It is perfectly natural for every nor
mal human being to want to look as
well as possible, and vanity alone
should teach them to care for their
teeth In time and to keep them clean.

TEETH AND SELF-RESPECT
MANY a man takes a bath and
changes his collar every day and
wears the latest style' clothes, while
his teeth cry aloud: "Give me a bath
and take me to the dentist."
Go where you will, there Is a con
tinuous parade of Irregular, elongated,
unkempt teeth. Of those who visit the
dientlst, very few do so because they
I sincerely believe that sound, clean
teeth are conducive to lengthening
their lives. Most men visit the den
tist because they are driven to him
by pain or pride. Few people think
of their health until they are sick.
As the physician and dentist see
things today, there will be far less
; surgery and sickness when the full
knowledge of modern preventive medi
cine and dentistry become fully known .
throughout the world. The average
duration of human life has been In
creased many years during the last |
half century. This has come about
more through the protection of the |
people by public health laws and the
saving of children than through the
knowledge and use of drugs.
Concerning the diseases of chll
| dren, it used to be thought necessary
for children to have diseases that are
now largely prevented by quarantine.
We know, too, now, that these unnec
essary diseases leave their scars ac
cording to the seriousness of the In
iection. scarlet fever breaks down an
enormous amount of the surface of
the kidney, the chronic infections do
the same thing in a small way. We
cannot afford to "have" our children
suffer these handicaps.
Bad drinking water is probably one
of the most common and dangerous
carriers of disease. In our cities mil
lions of dollars have been spent to
insure pure drinking water, but we
are Just beginning to spend anything
to keep clean the child's mouth.
This great advance in the preven
tion of the diseases wherein dentists
are so much interested is the knowl
edge that acute, special, local and
chronic diseases such as neuritis, sci
atica and acute paralysis come from
mouth infections in the majority of
instances. We are also coming to be
lieve that appendicitis, diseases of the
gall bladder and olcerated stomachs
may be caused by bacteria In the ca
pillary circulation at the base of mu
cous cells. Another prime cause Is lo
cal infections.
We find foci of infections In the
j tonsils, in pyorrhea, in cavities in the
| teeth, in abscesses at the roots of
the teeth. All of these foci of Infec
tion may be prevented by keeping the
mouth clean and healthy.
Can we not change our attitude from
onj of neglect to one of self-respecting
caret

Perfection in
Its Simplicity
PATTERN 2092
Every now and then some simple
idea comes along and creates a
furor?and every one wonders why
it hadn't Happened before! Like
this perfectly grand house dress
which has been designed. Its long
coat lines make one appear slim as
a rail while at work about the house,
and It gives much freedom of move
ment. Its greatest feature, of course,
is the fact you can slip it on and
not be bothered by mussing your hair
or twisting your neck?just a dive
Into it and It's on. It is attractive
in colored cotton broadcloth, percale
or pique print, substantial materials
lending themselves well to Its coat
lines.
Pattern 2092 is available in sizes
16, 18, 20, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, 44 and
16. Size 36 takes 4% yards 36 Inch

DIZZY
The Inquisitive woman was worry
ing the gardener. She asked a lot
of meaningless questions.
"What steps do you take with
caterpillars?" she asked.
"Well, mum," said the exasperated
gardener, "I takes half-a-dozen steps
Into our nearest field and turns the
caterpillars round three times so that
they gets giddy and don't know their
way back."
Vain Regret
"What a change! The old lane
replaced by a wide road, and there,
Henry, just where we used to meet
when courting, they've actually
placed a traffic signal."
"I wish that red light had been
showing then, Maria!"
Important Question
She?When we are married, dar
ling, two hearts will beat as one.
He?Yes, but which one?
