How to Treat Tooth-Brushes.

Albany Journal, “If,” said a young lady in an Albany drug store, this morning, “you can sell me a tooth-brush the bristles of which will not come out as ter I have used it two or three times; I will buy one.” Said the druggist, as he placed before her a box of tooth-brushes: “I will tell you a secret about that matter. These crushes have been in the case for a long time. Now, when you buy one take it hi me and put it in water for an hour or two before you use it. The bristles are dry and are apt to come out when they are used. Always remember that when you buy a tooth-brush.” And she said she would.
