A daniverous warning — bleeding gums RE your gums tender? Do they bleed when brushed? If so —watch out for Pyorrhea. This disease of the gums, which afflicts four out of five people over forty, not only destroys e teeth, but often wrecks the health, InPyorrhea, thegums become spongy,, then recede; the teeth de- cay, loosen and fall out —or must be ex- tracted oridthesystem of the infecting Pyor- rhea germs which breed in pockets about them. ‘These germs lower the body's vital- ity and cause many diseases.

BOWMAN, President These Ultra-Modern Times HARACTER ANALYST (testi- fying in prisoner's behalf): “Your Honor, it is my contention that the defendant is a victim of cir- cumstances. An analysis of his char- acter proves that by nature he is rash and impulsive—an inherent trait over which he can exercise no control. “His assault on the plaintiff was, therefore, no fault of his own—rather was it the fault of the Supreme Being who endowed him with such a tempera- ment. He is to be pitied—not con- demned. “IT ask for judicial clemency in his behalf.” Jupce (after due deliberation) : “J, too, have had my character ana- lyzed. My analysis shows that I am stubborn to a marked degree, that my native obstinacy will not permit me to listen to reason, and that I have neither mercy nor sympathy in my make-up. s you have just stated, we mortals have no control over the temperaments with which we are endowed. “Ninety days. H. Allan Perrill. Fanatical Minorities R. NICHOLAS MURRAY BUT- LER has been talking again, and talking as usual pretty well, and he said (as reported in the papers) : Liberty, which once was endangered by and by ruling classes, has long d to fear either of these; it is fly endangered by tyrannous and fanatical minorities which seize control for a longer or shorter time of the agencies and instruments of government through ability and skill in playing upon the fears, the credulity and the selfishness of men. That seems to be about the size of it, but which particular fanatical minor- ity has he most in mind? Is he more resentful of the bunch in the Senate that beat the Versailles Treaty, or of the Prohibitionists who have swept the country fairly clear of all mild stimu- lants and left the drinkers little to drink except whisky A diligent minority is working with all sorts of propaganda to cultivate American distrust of Japan and encourage armament against her; another practices to make an Anglo- Irish agreement as difficult as possible; another is anti-Jew, another anti-Cath- olic, and there are lots more. But the minorities that have really been effectual in great matters are the one that put over the Prohibition amendment and the one that kept the United States out of the Treaty of Ver- sailles. It must be this latter one that Dr. Butler is after, and with the arma- ment conference trying to do what it failed of doing at Versailles, his assault is timely.
