The great majority-of dentists represent to their
patients that a rubber plate with fourteen teeth
set in a half circle is just as ood as anything
else for a set of artificial teeth.
Some make such representations knowing them
to be false, others because they know no better.
The responsibility for -this condition rests with
the dental profession,
A great many people would not accept a rubber
or celluloid plate if they only understood the
superiortty of a metal plate in cleanliness, health
fulness and durability.
We would like to talk to with you about metal
plates for artificial teeth.

POSTAL RECEIPTS LARGE.
Oregon City Office Wins Free Mail Delivery.
I
According to the annual report of
Postmaster T. P. Randall, just com
pleted, the receipts of the Oregon City
post office for the fiscal year, ending
June 30th last, were $13,175. as
against $10,307, for the preceding year.
This increase - in postal receipts,
amounting to 33 1-3 per cent, not only
entitles the city to a free delivery of
mail within the corporate limits, but
adds $100 per annum to the salary of
the postmaster, who will hereafter re
ceive $2300 per year.
Residents are very generally co-op
erating with Postmaster Randall in his
efforts to secure for the city a free de
livery of mail, a service to which the
city is entitled by reason of its en
larged postal receipts. Property own
ers are complying with numbering or
dinance, recently enacted by the Coun
cil, and ,within a short time all resi
dences and business houses will be
properly designated. When this con
dition has been complied with, formal
application will be made of the post
office department at Washington for
the mail delivery service.
