The acid is formed in the mouth by the decomposition of feed particles left between the teeth, and its formation in harmful quantity is normally prevented largely by the alkalinity of the saliva that constant- ly bathes the teeth, The amount of this secretion is de- termined to a very great extent by the flavor of the food. Sapid and pungent substances --salt, for example --cause it to flea rapidly. The degree.. of alkalinity is affected by the reac- tion of the food; acid substances like fruits and salads cause a rise in the alkalinity, It is well therefore to end every child's meal with a little fruit, raw or stewed (without much sugar), so that the saliva shall be strongly Toll me what -you need and 1 will lit -ladle' give you full particulars of tholes improved and unimproved terms in all parts of Manitoba.
