The first thing to be said in regard to children' teeth is never allow a pacifier under any circumstances, not only because it is not sanitary, but because, it in each and every case causes a de-' formity that can never be perfectly corrected in after life by surgery or otherwise.

Thumb sucking is almost or quite as bad, so mothers, do not allow your little ones to continue this habit, because is looks "cute" while baby is tiny, as the time will come when baby is an Over-grown boy or girl and it does not look cute, and in the meantime, the damage has been done. If the teeth protrude, the upper bone in the mouth has become misshapen and the whole facial expression has changed for life and no two teeth in the mouth will ever be in the place intended for them, thus causing mouth breathing, which in turn causes "adenoids" or other trouble with the throat and nose.

After two years a child is supposed to have all the temporary or baby teeth, which should be cleaned (with a nice little brush all his own) every day by mother, and closely watched for small black spots, which as soon as found must receive the family dentists' care. Often these little spots appear as early as three years, and if taken in time may be treated by him without any drilling or filling, which in most cases is quite distressing to the little one. However, these twenty teeth must be kept in their proper places until time for them to be replaced by the permanent ones, which only begin to appear at six years, and if a child has never been taken to the dentist before, it must be taken at the age of six. Mothers, if you wish healthy, beautiful teeth for your little ones, remember this. - Florence R. Atkinson, D. D. S., Chicago, 111.
