The Teeth.—Attention to tho cleansing
teetli cannot he inculcated nt too early an ago.—
Tho neglect of brushing and wash.ng tho teeth Is
invuriably attended with both diseaxo nnd decay,
which by timely and daily ablutions might have
been avoided altogether, Those who have grown
up in the omission uf this salubrious habit shnulil
lose not an fhxianlln availing themselves of a prac
tice so easemiulto general health and cleanliness.
Tito extremes of ht-ul nnd cold nro injurious to tlm
toelh—tlioreforo, tho water with which tlm teeth
are cleansed should Im what is termed luku-wartn.
They should bo well but gently brushc-d, both night
nnd mornih'g'; the brush should bo neither extreme
ly hord nor extremely soft, but should pn*ff-M n mo-
ilium quality. Should tho gums flood •tightly
during Iftu Ytpdratiun, it will pYodbce n salutary ef
fect. Tho most effectual, nnd indeed the only,
means of keeping the teeth nnfl gums in n firm nnd
healthy stale, is by using tho brush dully. Those
who possess good leci It should he careful to pre
set vo them. When they (fro in good order, eutl
free from tartar, tlio uro of a soft bt tirii once n day,
with a little dentifrice occasionally, will be quite
sufficient to keep them so; nnd with this the owner
should rest satisfied. With respect tn tooth powder,
which has afforded to qunckery and imposture u
spacious field for their operations, whereon tho
credulity of mankind hns enabled them for years to.
reap n golden harvest, it Is obvl.it* tn all who give
themselves tho trouble to think, iIihi the simpler tho
ingredients of it* composition the more bcm-liciul it
is likely to prove. 1 know of none butter or more
wliulesomc, cilhrr for cleansing tlm teeth or for
