|ARE OF CHILDREN'S TEETH.
D«e»y Is Very Apt to Attack the Tooth
When the Child Is Young.
There in no reason why the appearance of
the teeth should cause any serious diitar
raugement of the system, but owing to
some neglect of the general laws of health
the slight fever and laxativencss which at
tends infantile teething becomes aggra
vated into serious disease. The first teeth
that appear are the two upper or two lower
iucisors; after these the teeth on either
side, then the molars, and usually liefore
the child is two years old, and last of all.
the canine teeth. The child now has twenty
teeth. These should lie preserved by wash
ing them carefully after eating from the
time they first appear.
When the little one is two years old the
nurse may begiu to use a soft brush.
Should there l«e any appearance of decay u.
these teeth the child should be taken to a
dentist, who will put in a soft temporary
filling, which is done so easily that it will
cause no special inconvenience to the child,
and will save it from that must excruciat
ing pain of childhood—the toothache. It
will also insure the permanent teeth com
ing in in a satisfactory manner, provicKug
the bodily health remains good. It is oi
the greatest importance that the child'*
temporary teeth be retained in the gum, a*
all intelligent dentists agree, until the
permanent teeth appear. The permanent
teeth absorb the roots of the temporary
teeth and push them out as they advance
In this way all the teeth, if kept sound ami
filled if necessary, will full out at their
proper time with little or no jiain or loss of
blood.
The writer has seen a child take out its
canine teeth with its fingers. The teeth
were as sou ml as pearls, but the roots nad
been completely absorbed by the perms
nent teeth a hicu appeared bcuealh them.
The first permanent teeth to appear in s
child’s mouth come in about the sixth year
back of the temporary teeth. They do not
displace any other teeth and are sometimes
taken for temporary teeth and neglected.
Important as it is to save temporary teeth,
it is doubly important to save these per
manent molars, as they are intended to
last during a lifetime, and slight decay
during childhood progresses far more mp
idly than it does in later life when the
tooth has become more hardened.
It is far more necessary that the teeth
should la* properly brushed in childhood
than in later life, because at the time the
permanent teeth are taking the plate ol
the temporary teeth the fluids of the mouth
are of an acid nature and the enamel am*
dentine have not become hardened. There
fore, decay is much more rapid and more
liable to occur. It is a cruelty to a Hub
child to neglect its teeth so long as to make
a severe dental operation upon them neces
sary. though a good dentist, who know*
bis business, will kill the nerve of a tern
porary tooth Indore he will extract it.
The eight molars of double teeth of in
fancy are usually retained until the child
is about eleven years old, though they often
come out before. The use of good tooth
picks or of dental silk, to clean out the par
tides of food between the teeth, is a neces
sity to their proper care. The particles of
food left between the teeth become putri
lied in a few hours in the temperature of
the mouth, so that the need for a use of
the toothbrush vigorously is at once appar
cut.
A toothbrush should be stiff enough to
do its work well, but uot so stiff aud harsh
as to injure the gums. Most of the sapoim
oeous powders sold are excellent, because
soup destroys the animalculie, which are
very likely to exist in putrifled matter
about the teeth. In case a simple powder
of charcoal or of chalk or orris root is used,
all of which are excellent, the teeth should
Ire brushed at least once a week with white
castile soap, but not oftencr, as the use of
pure soap too frequently tends to turn the
enamel yellow.
A well tried and excellent tooth powder
is made of four parts of powdered chalk,
two parts of orris root anil oue part of
powdered camphor. A mixture of buuey
and powdered charcoal is an exce llent old
fashioned tooth powder. A few drops ol
tincture of myrrh in a tumbler of watei
makes the last and most refreshing tooth
wash that can lie had. It is certainl)
worth while, on the ground of general
health, if uot for many other most excel
lent reasons, to take the most dainty cart
of the teeth. Diphtheria, of all sporadic
diseases, is believed by some of our last
authorities to arise from the foul germ*
produced by decaying teeth.—New York
Tribune.
Society aud the Family.
The family is the real social unit, and
what society has to do is to promote the
good of the family. And in the family
woman is as completely supreme as is man
in the state. And for all moral purposes
the family is more vital, more beautiful,
more universal than the state. To keep
the family true, refined, affect iouate, faith
ful is a grander task than to govern the
state. It is a task which needs the whole
energies, the entire life of woman. To mix
up her sacred duty with the coarser occ’ti
pa lions of politics aud trade is to unfit her
for it as completely as if a priest were to
embark in the business of a money lender.
That such primary social truths were ever
forgotten at all is oue of the portents of
this age of skepticism, mammon worship
and false glory.
While the emliers of the older chivalry
ami religion retained their warmth, no
decent man. much less woman, could be
found to throw ridicule on the chivalrous
and saintly ideal of woman as man’s guar
dian angel and queen of the home. Dut
the ideals td religion of old are grown faint
and out of fashion, and the priest of today
Is too often willing to go with the times.
Is it to lie left to the religion of humanitj
to defend the primeval institutions of so
cietyf Let us then honor the Old World
image of woman as being relieved by man
Votu the harder tasks of industry, from
in* defense and management of the state.

It is the opinion of a specialist on the
diseases of childhood that the majority of
Infants are improperly dressed. He ob

INEXPENSIVE MEALS FOR YOUNG
WOMEN WHO WORK HARD
| A Unique ll«**tuurant In a liUNy Portlou
| of New York City—An Unpretention*
Place That Has fur It* Cuntoaiem n
Large Number uf Working Girl*.
From h narrow entrance on Greenwich
street well worn stain* lead to n roon
where Mr*. Smith gives n hot meal f«*i
twenty cents. No outer sign above or u
low indicates anything to minister to Inn*
comfort, but the odor of cabbage is u|-
parent at times in n manlier too strong t
be really prepossessing. The room occii
pies the whole floor of what evidently ha>
been a large loft. Half of the front of tie
room is divided off by n light pnrtitioi
that mioses the ceiling by several feet. Tl.
other half, carpeted with a Brussels cari>ei
has an easy chair, several rockers an*
other chair*.
The hack part of the room Is separate'
by an apology for a partition that does no
pretend to bide from view the high priestes
of the establishment, Mrs, Smith, who i
busy generally preparing vegetables, cook
ing or talking to some of her “girls’ a
four tables in the center of the room an*
another table that encroaches on the sac re
precinct of live kitchen in the demand fo
more room.
“You must just help yourselves here." ••
rosy checked young woman remarked ton
newcomer. “1 always go out in the kitch
eu myself ami get my hot plate and hel|
myself to the meat and vegetables I lik>
best.”
She called a little girl, however, to war
at the table, and from the choice of steal
and corned beef the latter was chosen. AI
helped themselves liberally to some appl«
sauce and mealy white potatoes that con
trusted very favorably with the same veg
etables that are served in more pretention-
restaurants.
“I wonder if I could have some hot cab
bage?’*
“Oh. ye*.” the young woman replied
“PH get it myself.”
In spite of remonstrance she retttrnei
with a straining dish, the odor of whici
was not so disagreeable after all. Of fours*
almost everylxsly had a piece of Mr*
omilh'b genuine homemade mince pie
with a cup of tea or coffee.
On the tables was an unusual collectioi
of napkin rings. A pretty straw ring .
wooden one, ami another were considern
bly the worse for wear.
"We bring our own rings and then w*
are sure to have the same napkins even
time.” was the explanation.
“Don’t you have fresh napkins even
day?”
"Well, you might uot if you didn’t know
where the clean ones are kept, but we hav*
our rings ami put the napkins away in tin
drawer, ami no oue touches them. Yoi
don’t mind asing your own napkin mor«
than once.”
“I thought it very funny the first day i
came, but the second time I went right
out in the kitchen ami waited on myself
as 1 do now. and I come all the time. Hu-
brought me here.”
Gus is the owner of the pretty stra-'
ring, ami is very pretty, with soft hrowi
hair ami eyes, oval face and dainty nmutl
that closed over nearly perfect teeth.
The most refreshing part of the meal i
paying the bill. Mrs. Smith’s method doe
credit to her heart and good faith in worn
aukiud. but it warn id not recommend ifsci
to the average business man. Luncheon
for the w’eek are one dollar (kept account
of by the girls aud paid for w hen they se«
fit), or twenty cents for a single meal. Mrs
Smith couldn’t change a five dollar noh
for the newcomer. “Oh, never mind. You
can pay it when you come again.’’
On another visit the scene was different
The tables had lieen cleared, but Mr*
Smith was equal to the occasion. In a few
minutes plates, knives and forks had l>eei
laid, tea had lieen made and fish cakes in i.
spider on a gas stove gave out an appe
tizing odor.
Mrs. Smith is a remarkably pleasant
woman to look at—plump and pretty, witi
wavy hair that is growing liecomiugi)
white. She is bright ami motherly. He:
husband is the janitor of an office huildiuj.
in Broadway, and the family live there
Six years ago a young woman who wh?
employed in an office in the building am
visited Mrs. Smith’)* rooms occasionally
after much coaxing persuaded Mrs. Smith
to give her a hot luncheon at noon. Soon
afterward the mother of another young
woman inquired if Mnt. Smith would makt-
for her delicate daughter a cup uf hot tea
at noon. Other* coaxed one after another.
One girl who was a telegraph operatoi
wired to a friend in another building
“Why don’t you come up to Mrs. Smith’*
to luncheon?”
“Does she have pickles?” was the query.
“Yes,”
“Well. I’ll come.”
Within a year forty girls went to Mrs.
Smith’s room for luncheon, hut in the
course of time the owner of the building
refused pleasantly but firmly to have forty
girls use its elevators just at the neon
hour. Mrs. Smith was told that she might
have a few girls, hut serving forty was
stretching the point.
“Which ones shall 1 tell to leave?” she
asked despairingly. Then she said de*
perutcly, “I’ll keep them all.”
New quarter* were rented in Cedar
street, and afterward in Greenwich street.
The girls did not lose a single meal during
the moving. One gill has told another,
until from eighty to ninety customers go
regularly to Greenwich street for lunch
eon, aud Mrs. Smith looks out for all. The
girls almost without exception are pretty,
ladylike and well dressed, and n<e stvnog
mphers or telegraph operators.
If oue of Mr. Smith’s girls lie chilled by
a long ride on a winter’s day. she runs
down to Mrs. Smith, and after getting a
warm potion goes to business feeling like
another woman, or, if in the summer she
takes a vacation of an afternoon aud a trip
to Coney Island, she sends word that she
would like to have supper on that partial
iar day, an;! she doesn’t enjoy it any the
less after a breath of salt air.
A fewdays before Christmas Mrs. Smith
prepare* the very best dinner that she
knows how to prepare, and the girls revel
in turkey, plum pudding, fruit, wines and
other goal things of a regular Christmas
dinner. “Of course some of the girls won’t
take wine,” Mr*. Smith explained, “but 1
want them to have everything that la*
longs to such a dinner.” The girls thor
oughly enjoy the dinner and show their
appreciation in a substantial maimer
One Christmas it took the farm of a Ro
man gold pin with a diamond in the ceu
ter. Mrs. Smith’s assistants, of whom
there are five or six. also share in the re
mom bronco.
Mrs. Smith is a philanthropist in her
way. Her assistants are well paid, and af
ter the luncheon is cleared away they take
home the food that remains. Oue of the
women, a widow with five children, get*
almost enough provisions for her family -

The

Illstory of m Timcplcve
Founded on Fact.
It was at the time when the leaves were
beginning to turn in November that
Henry Smith mode the startling discovery
that his watch had stopped.
He wound it up, Lipped it gently with
his knuckles and then shook it, but it only
ticked a few times in a sickly way, aud
then it stopped again.
“It needs cleaning and a new balance
Staff,” said th • watch doctor to waom he
twk it.
“You may do the work,” Henry said.
“How long will it take?”
“About a week,” replied the watch
maker. "In the meantime you may carry
this watch.” and he handed out a small
silver timepiece which wound with a key.
One week from that day Henry Smith
again sought the shop of the watchmaker
to get his watch. The proprietor of the
shop assured him smilingly that the work
was not yet completed, ami told him to call
around in three or four days. When the
longer time hail elapsed Henry Smith
called again and was told that the watch
maker h;id lieen- very busy—so busy, in
fact, that he hadn’t done Mr. Smith's work.
Another time was named for the comple
tion of the cleaning ami the replacing of
the hal;uice staff.
Days became weeks; weeks rolled Into
months, and still Henry Smith with lamb
like patience continued to call for his
watch at stated intervals. He always re
ceived the same answer, unblushingly
given, “Not quite done.” Christmastime
came and went and the old year was ticket!
out by a small, silver, key wind watch
which reposed in the pocket of Henry
Smith.
He engaged in the practice of his profes
sion. Success rewarded his efforts. He
was much sought after and had multi
tudinous engagements, all of which were
faithfully kept on time recorded by a small,
key wind watch with a silver case. But
In the midst of the press of his professional
duties he still found time to call period
ically for Ids watch, ft was never done.
And the months rolled into years.
Upon the occasion of one call he b.-id
been favored by getting a glimpse of his
owp timepiece. It h;td looked at him with
it* white face like some ghost of the dear,
dead past, and he had hurriedly turned
and gone out.
Time wheeled on. Gray hairs began U
appear among Henry Smith's locks, and
still lie continued to call at the watch
maker’s with ironical persistency.
