It is because they think only—or too much—of the man who makes the mar- gin of profit and they forget to con- sider the consumer. From the stand- point of the maker of cutlery, home- spuns, cambrics and glassware, the ideal condition would be a high* wall around the continent keeping all other makers of such articles from selling any of them to the American people.

It is only recently that the teeth | and mouth have been suspected of | being @ source of a number of serious | infectious diseases, especially dis-| eases of the heart, blood, kidneys | and joints ‘The development of X-ray photog raphy, particularly the cellulold film, which has made the making of X-ray pictures of the teeth most convenient, has shown infected roots of teeth to! be the cause of many obscure “rhew matic” and other joint troubles. Ali modern up-to-date dentists now make use of X-ray pictyres whenever they suspect any trouble with the roots of the teeth. Not only the den- tist, but the physician as well has been astonished at what these pic tures have revealed to him. Often they show that pus is pres ent about the neck of the teeth, and that there are pockets, extending down toward the roots, which hold large quantities of putrid material, ‘The discharge of poison and germs from these hidden abscesses at the roots of the teeth and the consequent absorption from these and other local foci—as from diseased tonsils—show a very strong causative relation, if not the real cause, of many hitherto obscure, ill-defined illnesses. It im not a matter of coincidence that in the Presbyterian \ hospital, Chicago, out of 332 patients who were suffering from “rheumatism” and joint trouble, 89 per cent were found with chronic abscesses of the teeth, or that at the Cook County hospital, Chicago, 76 per cent of the “rheu- matic” cases were shown by X-ray ORR ener the handling of the machine.
