When she was a baby her mother gave her "Ovaltine" Ruske as the first tiny teeth were coming through the gums. Teething time was made easy nad sufficient biting exercise was onsured. And throughout childhood "Ovaltine" Rusks kept her teeth strong and healthy.

WHY NOT SMILE.

Lovely Tooth are Not Only an Asset to Beauty ... They are Essential to Good

Health

Have you ever walked down a country lane on a dull day- The fields are drab and the sky dreary. Suddenly the sun shines out, and the whole scene is changed; touch

ed,to light and radiance.

Just so cau a lovely smile trans form even a plain face. There is enchantment init. It can lift mouth to happiness or soften it to tenderness. It can give a lovely virtue to features that might other, wise seem commonplace.

In some people their smile is anforgettable. Long after the rest

of their looks have become blurred in one's mind the memory of it

mains.

•

The beauty of a sarile depends largely on what it reveals when, the Tips are parted. If the teeth are white, and even all is well. If not, the charra vanishes like a summer

mist.

Whether the teeth are unallor large is of little importance, so long 215 they are strong and healthy. They influence more than the looks, too. Bad teeth can affect the entire body and set up all man ner of ills.

..

At one time if we had rheuma- tism we went to a doctor or a spa, Now, we are just as likely to go to dentist, for most probably the teeth are at the root of the trouble. * Decay sets up poisons which spread through the system. It is caused by particles of food which collect in the small cavities of the reeth. If these are not removed they gradually ferment and then the mischief starts, to which there is apparently no end.

*

Merely to brush across the teeth is not sufficient-the brushing must be up and down and round and round. Only in this way can they be completely cleansed.

Acidity is something else which causes decay, and a good way of counteracting, it is to wash the mouth our nightly with milk of magnesi, which, being alkaline, neutralises the acid.

Bicarbonate of soda, makes an ex- cellent mouth-wash for the sime purpose and is enaily prepared by dissolving a little of the soda in a cup of lukewarm water..

•

One of the greatest dangers to the teeth is a film which comes as a result of the mucus in saliva and gradually coats the enamel.

It is present in almost every mouth, and if allowed to remain it accumulates and causes tartar, which often results in pyorrhoea.

This film clings very tenaciously and is more difficult to remove than une would think. It is necessary to use a stift brush, which, at the same time; must not be too harsh, and care should be taken in the selec tion of tooth paste.

Some pastes are much more effec- tive in dealing with this film than others. I have one in mind that is specially prepared, for the purpose, and which not only cleans the teeth but leaves them. with a lovely po- lish.

A really good tooth pasta should be soft, and should whiten

the enamel without scratching it.

One of the finest ways of keeping the gums in good condition and preventing pyorrhea is daily mons- sage. This need only take a few minutes, and should be done with n rotary movement and a gentle pressure..

...

It gan be made more effective by dipping the fingers in a weak mix- ture of peroxide of hydrogen and

water.

Another good way of guarding against pyorrhoea is to rub the gums with a little table salt cach- morning before cleaning the teeth. Salt is excellent, too, for a mouth wash.

CHILDREN LOVE TO PLAY

AT. GARDENING .

On Princess Elizabeth's last birth-

day many presents a set of small gardening tools given to her by Queen Mary.

It is an excellent idea to arousė a child's interest in gardening, and many parents and grandparents might well follow, her Majesty's lead.

If a child is given a tiny piees of garden for its very own, it, will soon find delight in laying out the miniature plot, which may be only a few feet square, and will watch the growth of things"it plants with interest it would never show' în a large garden cultivated by grown- ups."

A family of young children may. well be allotted a small piece of garden, each child being given the "free-hold" of one tiny plot, and then their efforts will be spurred by rivalry. They will be kept healthfully and happily engaged for hours in the open air when they are tired of other playthings and are fretting for something new. "Mary, Mary" is no longer "con

trary" when she watches her gar- den grow.

In addition to small gardening tools, tiny garden rollers, ana watering cans," which are splendid presents for children, there are made to-day a great many small ornaments specially suitable for children's gardens.

One of the most popular of these

This makes a splendid centrepiece to the minute garden, which every visitor is expected to ase and ad- mire,..

That little girl already knows the names of more planta and flowers than most grown-ups can recognise, and almost certainly the gift of that bunny, and & fow, KAI- dening tools for her very own use, has aid the foundations of a hobby which will be a pleasure to her all through life.
