Proper food for teeth making should
not stop with the second year, how-
ever. Growing children are cutting
teeth at pretty much every stage of
their development. At five or six the
baby teeth drop out and the perman-
ent set appears. During all these
months the diet should be carefully
watched. Milk should still form a
large part of the diet, a quart a day is
none too much, and eggs are valuable,
too. If milk and eggs are not playing
a large part in the daily dietary, feed
brown bread Instead of white for its

ting plenty of ntilit and eggs, white
bread will be sufficient.

next important step is to see that he
keeps thein clean. Teach Trim at the
earliest possible age to clean them
thoroughly at least night and morning

paste helps, but clear water is better
than nothing. Do not buy every denti-

Teach the child to brush the teeth
downward with straight, firm strokes.
This is the hest way to remove the
particles of food from between the
teeth. Brush Inside and out and don't
be afraid to brash the tongue. Finish
with gargling the throat well and rins-
ing the mouth thoroughly.
After each meal clean the particles
of food out from between the -teeth.
For this use a bit of dental floss, or if
you absolutely cannot get this, use
