'1'“ END OF JOHN '1'. KING.
(Hartford Times.)
I
The statement by the mayor of
Bridgeport. that John '1‘. King is
“through with" Bridgeport politics
may be taken as authoritative.
Mayor Behrens owes his sis'tus in
politics to Mr. King. It is not like-
ly that he has misstated the letter's
position. ‘
-1e may e assumed that if Mr.
King in t ougli with Bridgeport
politics h s likewise through with
Connection politics. That fact must
be regarded as imporfnnt.
The overtures from Bridgeport
mean that Feirfleld county is about
to become Bareback territory. hfr.
Rorebaek's authority has been
strengthened. His grip upon Con-
necticut will be vastly increased.
There is small likelihood that his
control will be shaken in the im.
mediate future.
It is rather amusing to observe
the clamor of the Bridgeport re-
publicans to get aboard the band
wagon. Obviously they have had a
stomachful of fighting the organisa-
tion. They will be glad enough to
get back in favor. Their position is
altogether unheroic. After years
devoted to making megnlficient ges-
tures of independence they arrive.
hat in hand. at the outer door of
Mr. Rorabsck’s domain and seek his
favor. Their desire for a place in
the'sun exceeds by for any seal
they may have had for improve-
ment of political conditions. In face
of their haste to climb aboard it is.
not difficult to appraise the worth
of their previous outcry against boss
government in state affairs.
‘ The outcome of the situation.
the peace plans do not fall. will
be to leave Mr. R‘orsbnck' more
firmly entrenched in powar. There
will be none who can hope to dis-
pute effectively his absolute control.
That may or may not suit citizens
who object to his domination but
it is s. fact which they will find
themselves obliged to reckon with.
It defines more sharply than ever
the issue as to whether Mr. Ron.

EACH TOO'l‘li 0F BABY'S A
MIIJESTONE
EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the
sixth of a series of ten articles on
baby care. Tomorrorv: Baby Hygiene.
Jvery tooth as it comes into place
is a milestone that marks another
step in baby'sdevelopment. Not un-
til your baby has cut all of his first
set of teeth should you feel at liberty
to give the clhld hard. solid food.
There are 20 of these‘drst teeth or
milk teeth. as they are commonly
called~10 in each law.
A child one year of age has.“ a.
rule. eight teeth. At 16 months
there should be 12 teeth and at 2 1-,:
years s. child should have the full
so.
Chewing helps materially in de-
veloping a child's teeth. About the
ninth month. baby should have a. dry
crust of bread after each feeding.
This dry crust should be given in
order that he may chew and develop ”
his law. Keep the fingers and any
other unclean articles out of baby'-
mouth. .
When the child is older. the dirt
should include a certain amount of
coarse materiel for the purpose of
exercising and developing the teeth.
Coarse whole grain breeds. hard
tack. swiobeck. baked potatoes with
their Jackets on and similar arilclv-s
may be included in the diet. as they
will do much to ensure good teeth.
The health and life of the second
teeth depend much upon the care
given to the first set. As soon as
baby's ill-st teeth make their appur-
snce they should be cleaned each
day with e. soft cloth or brush.
When he is old enough the child
should be taught the daily use of
the toothbrush.
~Thc drst teeth are necessary to
hold the proper shape of the law un-.
til the second teeth are ready to
break through. M the tint sin of
decaying teeth the child should be
taken to the dentist.

FLAPPER MEXACES TURKEY
(New York World)
Turkish young men ”living in the
Town of Eshkiehehr. according to
a dospufch. have placed sdvertlse~
merits in the papers for young
women who can dance. play a
muslcal instrument. who are strong
in body and without physical de~
feet, and who can talk clearly with-
out stuttering. The object of this
strange call from the wilderness is
to find dancing partners. It appears
that Turkish women are still so
wedded to the principle of occlusion
that they rcfuscto show up when
the music sounds oil. and that the
males of the specie have to dance
with chairs. or with each other.
Well. we wish these young men of
Eshklshehr'the best of luck. but
we feel they are making a mistake.
As things stand at present they are
well off if they only knew it. In all
humility we ask the men of Amer-
ica. today: If you had your choice
which would you take. the old-
foshloncd girl of yesteryear. who
was wedded to seclusion. who
