HIDDEN TROUBLE
Because ybur teeth are faultiest in APPEARANCE, it does not
necessarily follow that thGr are SOUND. HIDDEN TROUBLE may .
be commencing in unseen places. Decay is often present for' weeks
BEFORE it becomeB apparent. The skilfull dentist can detect these
places and PREVENT discoloration and disoaso. Go at least twice a
year to your dentist, and have your tooth examined.

BETTER CHANCES NOW FOR
BABIES OF UNITED STATES!
Analysis Shown That Healthiest Period
Ic About Eleventh Year.
A native white hoy ha by now bna nt
birth one chance In two of living to the
ago of Blxty. So it lias been discovered
by S. L. Rogers, director of the census,
from an nnnlyniS of the vital Btntistles
of ti'o New England, northern und mid
die states.
At tho end of his first year the baby
bus n trltle better than an even chance
of reaching sixty-four., lie has oue
cbnnce in two of attaining seventy un
der the same conditions.
A girl at. birth bra uu even chance of
living n few months past sixty-four.
At twenty-two lier chance of reaching
seventy is au even one.
Thus n native white male at forty
two and a native female ot twenty-two
huve nbout the same chance of cele
brating their seventieth birthdays.
On his first birthday the chance that
the boy or girVtvlll die witldu the com?
lug yeqr is only nbout one-fourth as
great ns it was at birth. The rate con
tinues to decrease until the twelfth
year.
The healthiest time la the life of the
average native is between, his or. her
eleventh and twelfth blrt?day.' When
the man groWS to be forty-eight his
chance of living; is just what It was in
his third year. - When he Is sixty-two
ids chance Is as it'was on hln second
birthday.
In its first year of life tho I o New
Yorker'a chance for reaching nls sec
ond birthday is nearly one-fifth less
than if he lived in the country part of
that state. Thus at birth the country
boy In tho Empire. State has an expec
tation of 7.7 years more ofllfe than tho
boy in "Cow York city, until b" is thirty
nlno. Tho country man ha& more than
five years better chance ot life than
bis metropolitan cousin.
Not until the New Yorker ht eighty
eight is his chance of living longer bet
ter in the city than in the country.
