FALLACY CONCERNING \NEGRO TEETË.

....

There is a common muperstition'

that negroes and the savage tribes pearly white teeth, and this in of Africa invariably have sound

spite of the fact that they pay no special attention to their diet or to the caro of the teeth, Now Dr. A. T. Till provides the results of an investigation into the dental condition of "chlidren in South Swaziland in Africa. Only 25 per cent. of the children were found to be free from carious teeth.

The diets of these children were based principally on malze. Milk, butter and eggs were seldom eaten. Meat was taken only irregularly and thon in large amounts.

The nursuing women of the tribe take no milk, because of a superstition that the drinking of milk prevents the mother from being able to nurse her child. An exactly con- trary opinion is held by most white mothers.

In South Swaziland the mother nurses her baby from 18 to 24 months, and begins to feed it on Bour mealio-ment porridge from as early an age as two or three weeks. To-day the scientific "evidence that the available indicates pregnant mother should have diet rich in vitamins and calcifying substances. The diets of the African mothers and children were poor in vitamins and high in cereals, which is full of anti- calcific substance.
