of the American cltlen, and the man
who would abridge or take It away Is
a traitor to himself, to his family, to
the flag of freedom mid to all pos

and the taking away of the rights of

veriest sophistry, cooked up by de
signing iH-rsons to deceive nnd rouse
the prejudice of the voter; there Is no
attempt or thought to do any such thing
but the Republicans taking a stand

wealth can manipulate the party to

who prefer political anarchy to sober

political anarchlHts can step' In, and

The cost of dental wotk is often given as an excuse for
neglect; but have you ever considered tne work done by your
teeth and the relative cost of dentistry compared to food, clothing,
etc.? The teeth are our best friends, never valued until lost.
If you neglect them you cheat yourself. There is no work that
costs so little inproporiion to its imperative essentiality as good
denial work. There is none that can compare with it in effect
upon good looks and good helth. A better appreciation of con
ditions has made the public better understand the beneficent ser
vices rendered by dentistry in the preventative and protective
work that it has done.
