THURSDAY, MARCH *ncu Mart # When the breakfast room is in plain view from the dining room or off the kitchen it is pleasantest to have its color scheme in harmony with the one so near it. One attractive method of working out the scheme is to use reverse colors—that is, if the dining room scheme uses a beige rug with ivory walls and a great deal of soft blue in "the draperies, a good combination for the breakfast room might be: A dull blue floor covering, furniture painted a soft French gray-blue, with overcurtains having a dull canary or beige background and-a pattern whose design and coloring are in keeping with those in the other room.

Teeth are decidedly a permanent part of your anatomy! The skin and its cells change and with the constant process of rebuilding we are practi cally rc-made every few years. But after baby teeth have gone the permanent set comes; and after that, “your teeth are your teeth, all your life"—unless by your neglect you lose them. The tooth-buds of the infant de velop preuatally, many months, in fact, before the child is born. And localise of this development the ex pectant mother must begin to build up in her own body the necessary elements required by the child. Calcium, which is richly present in milk, is one of the most important ingredients for the mother to intro duce into her own system, for calcium is an actual part of the teeth. If in the last three months that the mother is carrying her baby she does not make up the terrific drain made upon her own system for the development of the teeth and bones of the unborn child, her own bones will become soft through the absorption of the lime salts from them. After the child is born its milk teeth must be carefully attended to, kept scrupulously clean by brushing with a tiny brush and a little milk of magnesia as 'early as the first two teeth appear. On the care and the resultant health of these milk teeth depend the strength of the permanent teeth later on. Lime water is often added to the baby's milk on the physician's advice. The best and simplest way to care for the new baby's gums is to dip a fine piece of sterilized gauze in a little hone acid solution and wash out the inside of the baby’s mouth. One noted medical authority sug gests that mixing calcium (precipi tated chalk) with common salt in the salt shaker will help to insure both child and adult of the required amount of calcium or li.ne. The contour of the teeth is moj important, too, to mouth beauty, much no, in fact, that 1 cannot advise you too strongly never to permit your baby to fonp the habit of sucking its thumb, or to allow pacific/s or a too long use of the nursing bottle. Any defect can lie corrected in early life when bones and sinews arc soft and plastic. When the child's teeth are out of alignment a dentist who has specialized in orthodontry can advise you sanely and sensibly on the best method of/Correction. MAN IMMORTAL >■ / jQf course he is. Everything in nature—in and upon this big. /wonderful world, proclaims the fact to thinking man. It is for us to see and know. — — m There is not a chemical atom in man’s physical body that can be destroyed, save by the All-wise Being who created it. For that matter,^ nothing that is in or upon this earth can be annihilated^ save by its Creator. Suppose I burn this sheet of paper, on which I am putting these thoughts; a few particles of ach will remain. But, have I destroyed anything? Nothing—except the form of matter, aad mere form is not substance. / I have simply dispersed a few atoms, which were clinging to each other, in conformity with fixed laws through which Man may operate, but over which he has no control. - It is absolutely the same when a charge of gunpowder is exploded—not a single particle of matter is destroyed; it is merely a process of changing the chemical position and intimacy of the chemicals in the combination known to us as gunpowder* So with man’s body. It may cease to function and proceed to disintegration, when what we call death comes. But not one atom of the body is lost or destroyed. Each cnemical element floats back into its original position-where it may do service in some other body. It’s a sublime thought I These particles composing my body— and yours—are as old as earth itself. They are absolutely in destructible. % When we are through with them, some other bodies will get them—for they will endure forever, at the pleasure of the God who made them. The soul, the life? Where else but bade to the source from which it came, as do the other units of this body of ours? JUST RECEIVED!
