In Your Teeth. .......
The condition of the mouth has
much to do with the general health.
The improvement fallowing the
placing of the teeth in a healthy
condition is often surprising. One
cause of so-called "bad breath" is
due to the tartar on the teeth they
being otherwise Bound and good.
Tartar is in many mouths the only
enemy to contend with. It ac-
cumulates at the neck of the teeth
irritates tbe gums causing them
to become inflamed so that they
bleed easily. This should be
taken as a warning and if Dr. Ir-
vine is called upon in time will
prevent much injury. If not done
the accumulation continues and in
time the teeth become loose. A
great mariy intelligent persons fail
to appreciate the importance of
taking care of their teeih until
compelled to do eo by puttering.
Then they want their teeth ex-
tracted and it is just as foolish to
have a tooth extracted because it
is in an ulcerated or broken down
condition as it would be to have a
finger amputated because ot the
appearance of a felon or the re-
moving of an eye to get rid pi a
cataract. Diseases of the teeth
and surrounding tissue are certain-
ly as amenable to treatment as are
ulcers or morbid growths in other
parts of the body. A tooth that is
decayed contains a cavity in which
food collects and is decomposed
causing an offensive breath. The
decomposed food is dislodged and
carried into the stomach where it
may cause trouble. Of course the
trouble is increased by the number
of teeth involved. A person with
poor teeth cannot eat with satifac-
tion he is in a nervous condition
bis food imperfectly masticated
and insalivated hence goes into
the stomach unprepared for diges-
tion thereby causing indigestion.
Decay generally begins in some
obscure point inaccesible to the
patient hence the advantage of a
visit to

Miss Mary Christian of Vinita and
Mr. John Pride a wealthy young far-
mer of Madisonville Ky. eloped to
Evansvllle Indiana yesterday and
were married. The lady has a num-
ber of friends in this place and there
are probably two or three young .men
here with whom Miss Christian was
a favorite who will note this with
sadness. Oh well such is life. The
bride had been visiting friends in
Sturgis Ky. for several weeks and
was to have been married In a few
days to Mr. Thomas Hammack a
prosperous business man of Sturgis.
About a week ago Mr. Pride who re-
cently inherited a comfortable for-
tune at the death of an uncle ap-
peared and became a fast friend of the
prospective groom.
They met at a social entertainment
three days ago where Pride was in-
troduced to Miss Chrisi ian. It was a
mutual case of love at first sight and
the couple arranged an elopement
which was carried out yesterday.
After the Backsliders.
There was a fair congregation at the
Methodist church last nifht. Bro.
Hicks' subject was "Blaeksliding.'
He called attention to theproneness of
the human heart to return to the
"flesh pots" of Egypt and how often
Christian people lose their commun-
ion with God consequently cease to
give testimony fortruth. The preach-
er enforced the thought that many
professed Christians were in a back-
sliding condition and were not con-
scious of the fact. Awake church of
the living God awake.

that town when John Gibson and

each received the same number of
votes.
Nothing too Good.
The Great Western Type Foundry

of Vinita on their visit in February
with the thermometer at 22 below.
