(.'a ?Jk.Q*C OST long suffering little I4 iTTr K Auiericiin children seem to O J^I o regard the dentist us an ? toocuiuu f a? w v/i- fcivu ui^ VOIr up. They Itnow they must have clothes mul medicine, nnd lessons nnd occasional punishment, nnd precious Saturday play-time snatched away for dismal hours at the dentist. They expect as much to have their . teeth filled just as often as they do to Mb have new hats and new shoes or Christmas presents at midwinter. And ' an occasional sophisticated small person will even boast of her gold fillings, as an old-fashioned country baby . might of her gohl curls. Apparently children are trained to think tho dentist n necessity, and grown people are much the same., We seem to iiave forgotten that people have a right to sound teeth, that teeth belonging to healthy people should be white and strong and perfect, such teeth as North American Indians and Sonth Sea Islanders have. Of coursu there is a reason in the first place for teeth of over civilized people losing strength and working power, The gums, like muscles, need friction to keep up a good circulation. A muscle that isn't used gets finbby and incapable, and teeth that are not exercised, as it were, get lifeless and either loosen or decay. The reason teeth do not get enough friction nowadays is because they were uugiiiHjiy liuenucu 10 gnaw nones and chew gristle; and now that these primitive foods are regarded as inelegant and that tfio teeth are used mainly l'or polite cereals and tender meats, there is practically no friction and hence hut little circulation in the gums. And so now comes all sorts of troubles of a semi-paralylie condition. Hut fortunately there is a remedy for this condition and a very simple and inexpensive one. It is nothing more or less than the right use of a stiff toothhviisll Anil liI?!/->* ' up the gums as though 0110 wenploughing in a spring meadow, or bringing such pressure on them at the edges of the. tooth thoy are picked and hurt; it doesn't moan doing any sort of foolish thing and hoping to get good results. What it does mean is to got a moderately stiff hrush and to use it with intelligent vigor, twice a day on the upper part of the gums, both inside "v and outside; get a good brush and one with a kr.ob at liio end so that the bristles can reach the utmost narts of I the gums, ami a large brush; a very narrow brush is much more apt to cut tlio gums. Use the brush two or throe minutes, at least long enough to start a glow Jn the gums. Sometimes, even if the brush is most earel'u1i,\ us:h!, (|hv gums will bleed at j ttrst, luit this only means that they are '"T" Jill ?<n inflamed and aenemic condition Ji?/ and particularly need this treatment. w? IteaUhy (gums will not bleed when Bb to* they are brushed unless the brush is Tvaroirssiy usen so mat lUey are cut .with the bristles It is not nearly so necessary to use tooth powder as it is (o make sun thai water is soft and pure.

Where, In addition to this method of Keeping tho month sweet and clean, a powder Is desired, it is a good idea to prepare* the mixture one's self, making sure lu tills way that the ingredients are all fresh and pure. The following is jin inexpensive hut excellent tooth powder: prepared chalk, six ounces; powdered orris root, one ounce; powdered white eastlle soap, one-half ounce; pulverized sugar, one half ounce; boric acid, one-half ounce: oil of wlntergroon, one-lialf fluid drachm, (.'rind all together lo a fine powder nr.d sift. Add n little olive oil and sift again. This amount of powder should last a family of four people at ieast six months, and if put in sealed jars will keep nicely. A home made wash is also a wise precaution in Hips?? ibivs <?r preparations. An excellent wash con . tuins both myrrh and borax, tin* former healing and the latter strengthening tin* gums. It is combined in the fol-j lowing way: Quillnja (soup-bark), ctiiiw powder, one ounce.: orris, coarse powder, one-fourth ounce; snceharine. lire grains: oil of peppermint, one-halt" drachm; oil of wintergreen, one-fourth drachm; water, nine ounces; glycerine, one ounce; alcohol, six ounces: solution of carmine, one drachm. Mix. macerate for seven days, agitating occasionally. and filler. Even when all possible ear*"* and pre camion lias noon inlaw in tile nursery from tho lii'st appearance of the hnh.v tooth.

If the stiff brush and the Imntx water lias been use<l for hah.y days, tho clnusees arc that those visits to the dentist will mean nothing more unpleasant thau' a few minutes' examination of jite teeth through a microscope iiiiil a slight cleaning with a pumleo.'urusii. ? - ||i The money (o ho saved l>.\ those 'e\v I ^ X* i-arly precautions nnd the torture to lie } I taken out of hoy nnd girl life Is simply incalculable.

"When the poultry houso is divided Into two or more apartments the partition should be of boards instead of wire or laths, as the warmth of the bodies of the fowls will induce eold currents of uir to flow from one end of the house to ilie other. If anyone doubts this let him enter a lonu poultry house on u cold day, where the partitions are of wire and he will be convinced. In a continuous (long) poultry house each apartment should lie hoarded up the sflme as if a separate building. Turkey* For l'roftl. Some time ago it was slated that in the opinion of the writer of the item and other experts, the failure of (lie turkey crop in the tail of HKKi was very largely due to the general practice of iu-bl'eeding. It is therefore opportune to warn those who raise turkeys to make sure that the torn turkov i.? brought from ji breeder at some distance from you so that there will be no trouble on this score. By sonic little effort one could dispose of their own toms to breeders who were looking for such birds for mating purposes, and with the proceeds buy equally good birds who were not related to their hens. There is money in turkeys if the breed is kept up to the standard and tliev ran lm raised 011 a range of good size and kept 011 (hat range so (hat (he eugs can he secured for hatching. The indications are (hat the fall and winter demand for turkeys will be large. ScriMcliitiR Shod For l'oultry.

Ell'flct of Grooming. The skin of the horse, like that of other animals, is an active excretory organ. Supplied with almost an indefinite number of pores, through tlie.se, if kept open, a continual discharge of watery fluid, and such other waste matter as is carried there by the blood, occurs. It also contains myriads of minute glands, secreting an oily fluid that is essential for rendering the skin sott and flexible, as well as furnishing nourishment needed by tho hair and keeping it soft and glossy. It will not do, therefore, for these pores to get clogged, for in 1 hat ease the skin would soon bceome dry. rough, hard and diseased; nor is there much dang r of it except when the horse !ft hard at work. Then the secretion of watery fluid is heavier than when the animal is idle, and if the sweat is allowed to dry on the skin, dust will accumulate, mixing with it, and. if not cleaned off, till and clog the pores*. As a result the si:In will not only lu'come diseased, but the whole system more or ! ^ ss deranged.

St. M<>ritz is ono of tho highest vIIlag<e8 In the Iihigadine, having an altitude of about 6,000 feet, and is a groat centre of winter Boorts: It Is conse quontly much frequented by English and other nationalities who enjoy the sports of skating, curling, tobogganing, skiing and bandy, which can hers be obtained under the best conditions. Good tobogganing may be had In other placoB, but at St. Moritz It is carried to a line art, and only an expert can expect to compete successfully on the renowned "Cresta" toboggan run, wltn its wonderful curves and banks. The name Cres'ta is derived from a small villaKO of that name near the finish i of Che course. The .course Is a little over threequarters of a mi!e in length, with a difference of elevation, from the start to finish, of about COO feet; the gradient varies at different points, being most steep at the church leap. As only cn'e toboggan can occupy the track at a time, the races are all decided by the time taken to complete the course. The record time from the start to the finish Is at present G1 G-10 seconds, this entailing a speed of sixty miles' an1vour or more cn the fastest parts. The curves of frozen snow are built up with high banks accurately shaped to allow the tobogganer to go round them at the greatest speed, tho highest bank being about twenty-live feet in height. These different banks have well known names, such as the Battledore and Shuttlecock, Scylla and Charybdis and Bulpett Corner. The whole track is practically of ice, and after nassinsr th? finish it. has for a short distance a steep upward gradient, the great momentum obtained carrying the tobogganer uphill. Tho toboggans used are of mo "skeleton" pattern, with steel runners, the tobogganer lying In a prone position and -steering with hi-s feet, by means of spikes attached >to the toes of his boots. The principal raco run on the Cresta is the Grand National, which takes place at the end of February or beginning of March, and might he called the Derby of tobogganing, competitors coming from j Davos and other n'licos -to tAlco nart in his contest.?Electrical Review.
