Cans of the Mouth. Tho uso of a tooth wash does not approach the conditions of a laboratory test, though thero can bo Httlo doubt that a good deal of germicidal work in tho mouth is dono by tho vigorous ap plication of the toothbrush, nnd It may bo pointed out that tho tongue mny well bo included In tho process. To bo effective, however, tho action of all an tiseptics takes time, according to the vitality of tho organisms they encount er, nnd usually tho tooth brushing process does not occupy mnny seconds. This question of tlmo exposure Is im portant, but it is very generally over looked and consequently tho nntiscptlc treatment of tho teeth falls short of thnt effectiveness which is shown to bo tho case in laboratory experiments. Tho tooth washing process should be more prolonged and tho antiseptic wash allowed to remain In contact with the teeth and gums for some minutes In stead of seconds before finally wnshlng tho mouth clear of antiseptic with plain water.

It flourished luxuriantly nnd sent up mnny stalks as high as a man's head, each crowned with a great plume of brilliant dowers. A neighbor was at tracted by tho beauty of tho plant nnd declared It must have cost Its owner sorao dollars. When told, however, thnt numbers of the snmo plnnt were flourishing behind his barn ho exclaim ed: "What! You mean to tell mo It's yallerweed!" And ho went away with the air of ono who had been imposed upon. Country Gentlomnn. li Thievery In Chile. Tho Chilean masses have a bad namo for larceny.
