And, : indeed, it is, literally under the sun, that the garbage collection manifests in ite greatest vigor, its disagreeable qualities. So long as the frost main- tains its grip, it restrains the garbage from exhibiting its disgusting peculiart- ties, but so soon as the "winter" of dis content" is passed, the garbage blos- soms forth in its true character of, perhaps, the most complete and cer tainly the most common of all nuis- ances. ; Like most evil things the garbage heap takes to itself, not seven, but seventy times seven more evil things 5 than itself, chief among which is the 'house fly, _ The ravages of this insect have been preached the whole civilized world over and the very energy of the cam- paign has apparently resulted in a slackening of its insistence during the past year or two, Yet though the attack by words may have calmed tion of the "bi fly" should not fal- + ter mor grow cold.

To see fifty files gasping their lives out on sticky flypaper may be a most comfortable thing to the housewife who tries to do something to keep down the pest, but fifty is an inconsequential number when com- pared with many thousands at large busily engaged in producing many thousands more. x . What is bere said about the hou fly applies with equal force to all ver min, and sticky fiy paper, in eficency, stands upon all-fours with the fine tooth comb, the mouses trap, the lazy cat, 'the rat catcher and other con- trivances designed to destroy vermin. In building a house we have a choice of v 8 materials, any of which may be the t to use under some circum- stances. For the roof, we may use shingles, tiles, slates or tin. For the walls, we may use wood or brick, stone or concrete, For the floors, we may use wood or cement. For the frame, we may use wood or steel. And 80 on. But we cannot build bodies in that way. The human body requires six- teen elements--oxygen, carbon, hydro- gen, nitrogen, calcium (lime) phos- constituting more than 98 per cent. of the body, the other ten less than two per cent. some of them showing the barest trace. However minute the Quantity of an element that helps to constitute the body, it is needed, and its absence will be followed by serious disorders, .. Iodine, for instance, is required in such minute quantity that for a long Ume its presence was not recognized in the body. = But the body needs a continuous supply of minute quanti ties of this element, and if it is com- pletely absent from the food and drink, as in the case of many Inland districts, the thyroid. gland does not work pro- perly, and goitre develops. If there Is a lack of iron {nthe food, the blood is impoverished (anemic). If lime and phosphorous are not properly assimi- lated, the bones are mot properly formed, and rickets is the result. Not only must the food contain all the ele- ments the body needs, but it must con- tain these elements in certain com- binations. There must, for instance, be starches (or sugars) fats, proteins, water and certain mineral compounds, beside minute quantities of protective substances called vitam.ing found in milk, whole grains, frnits and green vegetables. Such facts as these seem to make the problem of getting a fully balanced and adequate diet a formidable one, involving a knowledge of "so much chemistry that no one but an accomp- lished chemist could know what and how to eat.

RHEUMATIC PAIN need to know is that if we have a euf- ficiency of the natural foods, includ- ing fresh vegetables, we will have an abundance of the vitamin that pre- vents scurvy. The ordinary person can get along with very lttle knowledge of the chemistry of foods. All we need to know is that nature has provided am- ple foods, and that if we use these foods as nature gave them to us we shall not have any of the deficiency diseases. If we eat milk and fruits, grains, and vegetables in'their natural -eondition,- without any of the séfihing processes that remove some of the most important elements, we get in abundance all the body-building and body-maintaining substances, with the possible exception that those who Mve far inland and in the mountains may not get sufficient iodine for the needs of the body. © Much unsuitable feeding is=diie to Liniments of No Avail -- The Trouble Must be Treated Through the Blood. The most a rheumatic sufferer can hope for in rubbing something on the swollen, aching joints is a little relief and all the while the trouble is becom- ing more firmly rooted. It is now known that rheumatism is rooted in the blood, and that as the trouble goes on the blood becomes still further thin and watery. To get rid of rheumatism, therefore, you 10ust go to the root of the trouble in tae blood. That is why Dr. Williams' 1'ink Pills have proved Bo" beneficial "when taken for this trouble. They make new, rich blood which expels the poisonous acid and the rheumatisia disappears. There are thousands of former rheumatic suf- ferers in Canuda, now well and strong, who thank Nr. Williams' Pink Pills that they are now free from the aches and pains of this dreaded trouble. One of these 1s Mr. Robt. A. Smith, Mersey Point, N.S, who says:--"Some years too concentrated. The more we refine our grains and sugars, the more we remove the vital elements that go to bufld up stanch bodies capable of re- sisting disease.

The practice of dentistry to-day is Quite different from what it was a few decades ago.

X-Ray has revolu- tionized the accepted practice of the profession. The discovery that dental | conditions frequently - cause systemic diseases has led to increased interest in the removal of mouth infections and a greater appreciation of the value of preventive dentistry. The modern dentist is earnestly striving to provent ' root end abscess and Pyhorrhea by dis- covering and correcting the conditions which will lead to these harmful dis- eases. The rapid progress made in Dentis- try has forced the general prattitioner to keep abreast of the times. An en- lightened public demands a modern dentist; and the organized profession has its regular conventions and other forms of post-graduate study; so that the family dentist, practising in any part of the Province, may be able to keep abreast of the times. In this Province such opportunity is given at the Annual Convention of the Ontario Dental Association, which will be held at the King Edward Hotel, Toronto, May 17 - 20, 1926. The most outstanding authorities on the North American Continent will give essays, and clinics, thus placing in the posses- sion of the dentists the modern know- ledge which they need in order to pro- tect the dental health of their patients.
