How to Build up the Teeth.

Teeth are 3 ust as easily starved to death as the stomach. If we do not furnish to the teeth of the young thafe pabulum they require, they eannofc possibly be built up. - It is the outside of corn, oats, wheat, barley and the like, or bran,- so- called, that we lift away aod feed to the "swine,, that the teeth actually require for their proper nourishment. These flouring mills are working destruction upin the teeth of every man, vomau and child who--1 partakes of their fine bolted flour. They sift out the carbonates and the phosphates of lime in order that they * aiay provide that tine, white flour ; -which is proving a whitened sepulc hre to teeth. ' Oatmeal is one' of the best foods for '■ supplying the teeth with nourishment. f It makes the dentine cementuio,. and , enamel strong, flint like and able to--1 resist all forms of decay. If yw» bave t children never allow any white hread 1 upon your table. Bread made of whole wheat ground, tun bolted, so that the bran which contains the minute quantities of lime i& present, is best. Baked beans, top, have a con- ! siderable supply of these lime salts, i 'and should be on your table, hot or cold, three times a week. In brushing ' the teeth, always brush up and down from the gum, instead- of across.— I American Analyist.
