Crab au Gratin

TECHNIQUE OF THE TOOTH BRUSH

By Marion Morton.

WE are supposed to learn

how to wield an effec- tive toothbrush in nursery days, but I doubt if many of us learn to do so really ade- quately. For perfectly clean teeth are generally healthy teeth, and how many of us can flatter ourselves that the condition of our teeth leaves nothing to be de- sired?

Anyway, we all seem to lose them, sooner or later, and our dentists tell us that if we cleaned them properly and gave them the thoughtful care which -heaven knows they deserve, we could put off the evil day for many, many years.

Even apparently perfect teeth, however, are not always all they seem, and should be looked over by a professional eye at regular and fairly fre- quent intervals. Maybe the dentist will find that it is un- necessary to do anything to them except to give them a treatment with his magic little circular brush, thereby scaling off all the tartar deposits, and making them look pearly white.

A small tin of crab or the crab you BUT, between these visits it is

"Poison"

Complaint That Stars

No Longer Attract

up to us to carry on the good work ourselves, and the first thing to do is to see that we have all the necessary tools for mouth and teeth cleanliness. Four toothbrushes are better than two-but two are essen- tial. One is the ordinary brush you use for cleaning the front much teeth. The second is smaller one, with longish bris- tles, which is tiny enough to get into all the crevices at the back of the teeth.

It should be worked back- wards on the top of the teeth and up and down between them. It is waste of time to brush across them from side to side, because you don't dislodge any of the particles of food between the crevices in this way,

When you have finished using your two toothbrushes-and, if you are really thorough, this three process will take you whole minutes-your brushes should be rinsed, dipped in a solution of mouth wash, or mild disinfectant, and hung up to

dry. Soggy bristles which are never really allowed to dry make very inefficient cleansers.

THEREFORE, you see, if you

have lots of brushes, used alternately, your problem of how to dry your brushes solves itself.

The powder or paste which you use depends upon your taste in these matters. Some, brands leave a "rough" feeling upon one person's teeth while they leave others quite smooth.

Again, some teeth which are usually # little discoloured thrive more readily upon extra weekly cleansing with powdered chalk, whose
