ETHEL.—Show your teeth to a dentist. We regret that we could not give you a recommendation of the kind. Your medical man would do so. The loss of an eye-tooth does not affect the sight. It is believed that eating very fine white bread has tended to injure the teeth. Wholemeal bread is the best for producing good bone. SARAH BROWN.—You cannot re-silver a good looking-glass yourself. You must send it to a manufactory for the purpose. Any furnishing upholsterer or looking-glass seller would undertake to do that for you; but you must make a bargain before you send it, and you might obtain a good secondhand glass at less cost. DICK.—Dentists usually have a medical man to see and attend to the patient when gas is employed. It is not dangerous to take it. “IN GREAT TROUBLE.”—Yours seems a case for a doctor’s advice. You had better consult one. The word “silly” is not spelt “scilly,” like the islands of that name, and “disappointed” should not be written “dissapointed.” DOROTHY DRAKE.—You will find the answer to your question several times repeated in our correspondence columns. EVELYN.—We do not place ourselves between our young readers and their parents, by expressing an opinion respecting the punishments they inflict. If severe, we imagine that their statement of the case you describe would be of a different character from yours. Probably there were attendant circumstances which aggravated the misdoing on your part. What business had you to go out without leave, and not fully dressed for so doing? Besides, you may have been disobedient or impertinent. DITTO.—You will find instructions in riding in the monthly part for October 1st, 1881, page 3, vol. iii., and, as we told you before, at page 131 in the same volume. You cannot read figures, one would suppose. There is a picture of a girl on horseback on the same page. Look again. JO.—Perhaps you could receive some little pupils daily for two or three hours at your own home, and teach them the rudiments of an English education—reading, writing, arithmetic, grammar, geography, and needlework. MOTHER OF SIX.—The Paddington Green Children’s Hospital might suit you, boys under twelve years of age and girls under fourteen being eligible, and no letters of recommendation being required. Write to the treasurer, George Hanbury, Esq. 21, Portman-square, W. There are also the Belgrave Hospital for Children, 77 and 79, Gloucester-street, S.W.—lady superintendent, Miss Munro; The Eveline Hospital for Sick Children, Southwark Bridge-road, S.E.;—secretary, T. H. Chapman, Esq. All three are free.
