The Wingham Advance Times, 1925-10-08, Page 9w ?. 'Thursday, October 8th., tge5 011110 •u9• he Roar ett 4,10 '', By Dr. W. J. Scholes HALITOSIS The advertiseineilts of preparations -that may be used as mouth -washes have made the word 1,ialitosis familiar -to most people. They know that it i.s the scientific name for foul breath. A letter recently received from a correspondent contains a request for ,a permanent ct}re for halitosis. While it would be very gratifying to be able to name some one remedy that would permanently cure this disagreeable condition, it is 'impossible to do so. For offensive breath results from se- veral different causes.' What would prove to be a suitable remedy in one case, would pet entirely ineffective in -another case arising from a different •cause, That does not mean, howev- er, that a permanent cure is not pos- sible in many cases. A good way in which to begin the quest for a cure is to visit 'the dentist. Neglected teeth, which means cavities in the teeth and lack of cleanliness, are perhaps the most frequent' cause -of foul 'breath, The necessary dental work, isrclucing the removal of depos- its of tartar from the teeth, will do much to cure inany cases. `�I i sit Dentist Regularly Then ---a recurrence of the trouble must be;p.voided by a visit to the den- -List at feast every six months. And care must be taken to keep the mouth and teeth clean. The teeth should be carefully brushed twice a day, using •a good tooth -paste, powder or mouth wash, And the accumulation of par- Titles of food between the teeth should be prevented -by the use of the tooth pick or dental floss. , But remember, that even though the teeth may cause most cases of foul breath, they are not always at -fault. Sometimes diseased tonsils, or a catarrhal condition of the ;nose, throat or bronchial tubes, cause the foul odor. Or dyspepsia or constipa- tion may be the cause. Whatever the presence of chronic disease is also re - cause in any individual case, itsremov- garded as a probable factor in caus- al is necessary before a permanent ing cancer. The presence '. of gall- cure can be effected -stones is cited as an example of this. Reply No, To quote: from Albert Edward Wiggani's book ---"The Fruit of the Family Tree" --"nature has not only 'failed to provide any mechanism by Which the mental impressions ' of the mother are, to reach the child, but has actually guarded against such a trans- fer of influence," -0- Depend., On Hygiene C. L. W. asks; "Is it all right to take calomel for chronic constipation? Or what other medicine would you re- commend?" Reply I, Calomel is not a suitable drug 'for chronic constipation. In fact, it is ,like most other drugs, something that should not ;be taken except when prescribed by a physician. The ca- thartic habit its one of the most com- mon causes` of constipation. 2. The more that you dependoupon good hygiene, and the less that you depend upon drugs, the more. likely 'you are to cure constipation, Regular 'habits, a diet containing a large pro- portion of fruits and vegetables, drink- ing plenty of water, and exercise that brings the muscles of the abdomen into action, are 'sometimes sufficient. If, something more is needed, take mineral oil.' As : improvement takes place, gradually reduce the amount of mineral oil taken. -o- WINer IAM ADVANCE -TIMES WILL BE REQUIRED TO HAVE DRIVER $ LICENSE The Tile province of Ontario is going tocompelevery driver of an automo- bile to 'have a license next year, and the speed limit is to be increased to 35 miles an hour. This is deduced from recent speeches of Hon, George S. Henry, minister of highways and public works, who has been preparing the public for important traffic chan- ges shortly. Under the present laws, only ehau ffeurs are compelled to .take out per- mits to drive, But ]under the impend- ing amendments, it will, be necessary for every owner of a private car to have a license to odrive. It has been discovered that but few driers now recognize the 2$-anile-an-hourspeed limit, and if the majority did observe it they 'Mould clutter up the roads so that they would be practically useless for tourist traffic. To make the roads safe when the speed limit is increased, every .driver. will be compelled to pass a stiff' ex- amination, and people who are now a danger to themselves and the pub- lic generally on the highways will not, be able to secure a license. Avoid Irritation And Overeating Anon. writes: "Tracing my ancestry four' generations, I find that the'two' prevailing diseases are cancer and dia- betes. One may at least inherit a tendency, What may be kdone to counteract this so that one may never develop the diseases?" - Reply x. About the best advice that can be given at the present time for the prevention -of cancer is to avoid all kinds of irritation to tissues, so far as this is • possible. `Rough, sharp edged teeth, irritation from rough pipe stems, and irritation from the use of tobacco are regarded as pre- disposing to cancer of the mouth and tongue. The irritation causedby the The Mail and Empire's "TT- Wore" Picture Puzzle Game Put On Successful Bazaar The following clipping from the Seaforth . Expositor has reference . to a bazaar held at Hensall and put. on entirely by three daughters of Mr; and Mrs. Errold Drummond former residents of Wingham. The bazaar held in the Sunday School room of St. Paul's Anglican Church on Saturday afternoon last,. and gotten up by the Misses Margar- et, Beryl and Louise Drummond, the three young 'daughters of Mr. Earl Drummond, of :this village, was f a great success. The basement was very nicely decorated for the occas- ion, most surprisingly' so when they had only a few hours to doit, as they ,had intended having it bn the lawn. of their grandparents,`Mr. and Mrs. T. O. Drummond, but the forenoon turn- ing out very wet, as well as ; part of the aftiernoon, they were obliged to change from the lawn to that of the school room. In addition to the de- corations, there were three nice boo- ths, one for fancy work, another for candy, and the third, a fish pond, all of which were well patronized, for de- spite the very unfavorable weather, there was a very good attendance, as the proceeds serve,to show, amount- 'ing to over $6o.00 clear of all expen- ses, which was most encouraging to the girls, and they , wish td express their appreciation for the co-opera- tion' o operation' of their friends.. and the nice do- nations made them for the "fish pond." Very particularly do they wish to acknowledge the kindly dona- tion of $5.00 made by Mrs, Jas. Bon thron, Sr,, for the Sunday School, for which funds the bazaar was held. Among the many nice articles pur- chased and much admired was a'•very fine, quilt, which was secured by Mr. Anderson, of Exeter, agent for the Metropolitan Life Insurance . Com- pany. Throughout the afternoon nice lunches were served, which not only added to the pleasure of the occasion, but served to swell the fine receipts.
