Improper digestion means malnutri
tion. Blood that is poisoned by the
germs of disease cannot keep the organs
in healthy working order.' Stagnation
or clogging is the result. Physical
degeneracy soon leads to mental and
moral degeneracy.
Statistics from reformatories, prisons
and schools all over the United States
can be adduced in proof of these state
ments. Figures come from Charles D.
Hilles, President of' the New York
Juvenile Association. This latter or
ganization manages the Children's Vil
lage at Dobbs Ferry, where an average
of 550 delinquent boys are trained in an
effort to turn them into respectable
citizens.
Mr. HIHes says that 91 per cent, of
the boys committed to this institution
have bad tsfeth. After staying there
two years, in which time their teeth are
thoroughly repaired and they are taught
to use a toothbrush, SO per cent, of the
boys are no longer delinquents bat, good,
and almost all of them go forth into the
world and become valuable members of
society.
The first thing that happens to a boy
after being received at the Children's
Village is an examination of his teeth.
All hopelessly decayed teeth are ex
tracted. All cavities are filled. The
teeth are scraped clean. A toothbrush
and some tooth paste are given to the
boy and he has to use them. Every six
months his teeth are inspected by a
dentist. At the first sign of trouble the
dentist is called in.
