New York, Nov. 28. rTh recent In i "(-national aviation meet hold at Bel ;nnt rark.i at which nearly, all of th orld's greatest ; airmen flew, gav' a cw impetus to and a new interest' in ho recently organized United States -txmautlcaJ Reserve. 5 - This was the organisation that was brought about In order that the United States, in the event of war, njight be : : Tf d the services of a body of men lulled In ' the use of balloons, dlrlgl Uen, aeroplanes and i all of ...the latest inventions of aviation. A The organlsa ion from its inclpiency was unique In uiat' there is perhaps no other purely .uriotic volunteer organisation In' the world .that 'has for Ks founders' and backers so many men of, wealth as has this. Its board of directors includes ho nam'S of a goodly number of New York's millionaires' and Us membership includes " many ? more.' , 1- Jlvlatton,- of course. Is an expensive sport ; or scl noe, as the point of -view may be, and i he wealthy ' backers i"cbrae In very i andy. The Reserve, therefore, ' has been able to do a few; things in the brief two. months Of its exjstenqe that the ordinary : patriotic volunteer socl rty -would need at least a life time to accomplish. , laborats Quarters Pitted TJp. To bfgin wltn, the Reserve, with trie feid of the muiiey tlattsweaJtliy "ovndera have free contributed, has established national - headquarters at tho corner Of Twelfth street and Fifth avoraie In the old Lenox mansion, form erly one of the most aristocratic 'rest I'-nccs in the city. The lease on this would have staggered the treasury of moet organizations of the kind for sev Tal years to come, while- the furnish- Ings that have been Installed would S'robably have crippled it forever. The new headquarters, however,, in spite of ill tlwtr cost, ftre not to be exclusive, ''hey are to become ; essentially the home' of aviation in America and the Hub house of everyone interested In iviation. There has been Installed an ,-iviatton- library, aviation periodicals re on file, while drawings, photographs and everything pertaining to aviation v- ill be- kept for those interested. At tho same time, the society will wel come the " ideas of anyone who has omethlng to offer on the subject of itvlation that might be ue.ful to the : vernmenL Matter of this kind can lie. . .sent into the commodore marked pctscmr" aiid 'lt will be taken tip with t he government at the first possible opportunity. . The headquarters are to Ut tH0 ' Cf adle,: . the I nursery and . ; the l.orne of aviation for government use' , The second Ithlngv;. that- the-r Reserve with its millionaire backing has done is to found a magazine, "The Airscont that will have for ita one purpose the development ,' for ' government Use of aviation in America. If there is any one real .expensive luxury In the United States, It is magazine publishing for philanthropic motives, and the appear- anco of "The Alwcout" would indicate that its; backers have put up nobly for it r rather nobly for the government interests that it is intended to serve. It Is the very acme of the magazine publisher's art and is as- attractive out Fide and inside as the oldest established magazine oa the -market, " While it will ell for the usual magazine - price of 3 0 centa a copy, it Is never expected tiiat the proceeds will make It a self paying proposition, but if icaervea its purpose of4 building up an aeronautical reserve for the government' that will make that of any European country lnote like an amateur venture, the foun ders promise , not to mind the thous ands that the magazine will probably k wa llow. I-..V:.-Vw -'.- -- ' rff " j If the rather aristocratic headquar ters of the new -organization are not meant to be exclusive, it is equally In venoea wax ute organization snail not be exclusive.'. Of course, , primarily the reserve wants on its ; membership list : ate a balloon or an airship, because It wants an effective body of men to offer to the government in case of war. But the membership is Just as equally open to everyone Who is really interested in the science of aviation, for, government tise and who is willing, to put up one i-mall dollar for membership and one small dollar, a year for dues, v John Harry Ryan Is commodore of the Re serve wltn offices In the headquarters at 63 Fifth avenue.

The passenger was in addition to the cat, and as a con Kequnnce Moisant wouldn't have traded t hat cat for the cup which the London Daily Mail gave him for having made toe mgrii At tho Hotel Astor, therefore, where Moisant put up, there wasn't anything too good for the cat.

But "Stnbby" saw them first Since then, he has not been Been about his old haunts, on Broadway. Declares for Parcels Post. Because he claims that the . big ex press companies discriminate against the American shippers. Congressman "William Sulser of this city, intends to try ; to force through congress his bill establishing a parcels post Sulser has compiled a quantity of comparative fig ures which he says show that the big express companies discriminate in fa vor of the foreign shipped. Packages weighing three poundB, seven pound? or 11 pounds, he says, are brought here under i an agreement between the Brit ish postoffice and the express compa nies for 80 cents, 84 cents and $1.08 respectively, - They are . : then turned over to the express companies which have : established a common rate for any part of the United, States of 24 cents ' for -each package. They assess American shippers, however, from 26 cents to $3.20 for packages of the same weights, according to the distance' trav eled.; Discussing his bill which, be has had" in congress several years, but which he hag never yet been able to get out of " committee. Congressman 'Sulzer said: today: w:.;'.:,r-r,'f "The postal system of rates regard less of distance, the character of the ni.ttti r tr;in:-..'rt.- i, or the v! i ie ef tin; patron's 1 i;u. -, en;':. :Vy fr-i it for the public's biif-in-.-: s. "l .tt ft !: ;;! sixmr or later be greatly rvton.led over the - great field of rtil-'.i-o tran.--porta-tion Is absolutely certain." The Sulr bill propopes to make the common rate of letter postage 8 cents a pound; to raise the narvl weight to 11 pounds; which is the common rate prevailing elsewhere in the postal union, and to bring about a postal express in cities where free delivery exists. , At present the rural free delivery system of the country costs tho gov ernment $36,000,000 a year. Under the parcels post system, Sulzer claims, this deficit would be materially reduced from the start and finally be almost entirely wiped out In addition It Is believed by the congressman that if the system is placed in effect the present express rates will have to be materially reduced In brder to meet the government competition.

That's the best part of It TEETH The ' MUHonaireL Does Away With Partial PlaUs and Ordinary Bridgework The End Justifies the Means What Boms Dentists gay About the Rex Dental Company and the Al- , vsolar Method. There is pot a DENTIST In this city who does not know that the ALVEOLAR METHOD is'revolutionizlng dentistry. That it is the onlv entirely satisfactory way to restore . missing teeth. They know that it is the most beautiful,, most comfortable and. most scientific way that it will last a, life time.-That every patient fn this city who has this work (and there are hundreds of them) will say, if asked, that ft la absolutely per fect and entirely satisfactory In every way. We know we employ .only dentists of the very highest ability, that we have eleven of the most successful high class dental offices in the world," that we pay the largest salaries paid anywhere in the world., Thereby attracting the cream of the profession and that every den tist we employ is a top notcher. Yet there is haVdly a day that one or more people, wise enough to investigate for themselves, de not come in and tell us that Dr. So and So says 'It's impossible, nothing- to it They can't do It , It won't Inst, etc., etc.;'- We do not expect any otner dentist to recommend his pa tient to come to us. It is not natural for any man to send his Business away and to, another. But we do expect every Honest Man to Tell the, Truth, or say nothing. To the sensible man, knocking Is merely a boomerang to the knocker. Apropos the Alveolar Method Is oat- ented and the name is Trade Marked. We own both, west of the Missouri river; we sold the rights east to a con cern that does an enormous business. No other dentists have a legal nor moral rignt, even lr be had the skill, to do the work. Therefore, after the merits of this work has become known to all the people some dentists will continue to KnocK. :,,;: .-",-,.: '-0'. ,'..; The Alveolar method . snrelv "meets a lone felt want;" y A prominent banker ot tms city says: -lam manv others. i was a cowara anout my teeth. I kent patting off to see the dentist until it grew to be a necessity.' For two years naa ; been investigating the Alveolar system. It attracted me from the first and the fact that other dentists did not approve of it was no 'discouragement to me. :,; " . ' -- . - -w-- "I finally had the Work done. . I nt through without finding the pain which j naa areaaeu ana was looking for. This was a surprise as well as a relief to me. My front teeth were badly broken or entirely gone, with only, two of the Jaw teeth that came together, and "they were wearing naaiy. i now have a full set of solid uppers and loWers, and ran bite and chew as well as I ever could. "I consider I was wise In erettlnar th Alveolar system of teeth." The work Is practically painless and carries our guarantee of satisfaction. 1TJS EASY to make advertising claims for -dentistry, but to make dentistly that wDl make good the claims is hard. We ask pauenis to ao mis: Arter the adver tisements have attracted your attention then in fairness to yourselves and an dentists compare the work. Mint for point, or the references furnished n tn the satisfaction obtained, that is all we as. . 5;;:;-JWl;r',:;- v'-.-s. ; S. Alveolar Teeth and Enunciation The partial date - and b rid rework which people used to wear before the Alveolar Method of restoring missing teeth was discovered interfered greatly with enunciation. The very fact of a foreign substance bains- Introduced into tne roor oi tne mouth made it neces sary lor people to learn to talk all over again, A great many never succeeded. There IB an unmistakable impediment In the speech of anyone whose mouth Is encumbered with a partial plate or a priuge wiin kpucs unaerneaxn to Whis tle through or make a metallic sound when talking or singing. The nartlal plate also makes it - unpleasant when one is dining. It takes away In large measure -the sense of taste, as It covers up the palate. The Alveolar Method emancipates people from the many dis agreeable features of the partial plate, but, nes of all, It enables one to use the Alveolar Teeth wfth the same de gree of satisfaction that they would use nature's teeth.,-- -v-- .---- - No one will pretend to say that teeth fastened to a partial plate are any more than a makeshifts -'They slmply-flll up the gap in the mouth where the teeth have been lost The Alveolar Teeth fill up the gap and they also allow one to cnew with tnem with entire satisfaction Alveolar Teeth 'Where Bridgework Is impossible. . If only your front teeth are left say $ or 4 or more, we can reDlaoe all those that have. been lost on both sides clear back with perfect Alveolar teeth, whilst bridgework would be impossible even if you nad 8 or 10 front teeth to tie to. If you have only two back teeth on each side, say molars, we can supply all the front teeth that are missing with beau tiful, serviceable, lifelike Alveolar teeth. This could not possibly be done by the bridge route. Suppose you have lost your last (back) teeth, two .or more upper or lower on either side. We can replace them with Alveolar teeth. The bridge specialist would have to advise a partial plate which would encumber the mouth as well as to help to destroy your other teeth. Where you have lost a ; few teeth there are dentists who would extract all the rest to make room for a plate. . (Where people have no teeth we make plates, too, - And when we do they look like they grew there. V uey are scientifically, and artistically built for service and comfort as well as beauty.) Even Where bridgework is possible, mere is no comparison Detween the two. A , very large percentage of our -work Is taking out bridgework put in by supposedly high class dentists and replacing 'it with the beautiful and ar tistic Alveolar Teeth.- And unlike bridgework in another respect, it Is practically painless. No boring or cut ting into the gums, nothing to be dread ed. Now, then, ptiqes being equal, which would you choose? - Curing Pyorrhea (loose teeth), s". dis ease . given up by other dentists as in curable, is another of our specialties. We cure it absolutely. It's a boastful statement to make, but we can do any thing that is possible in dentistry, and what we do is always of the very high est class. Our booklets, Alveolar Dentistry-are free. Write for one if you cannot call. We have samples of our work to show at au times. , -, ,. -s TH33 BEX, DEBT AX CO., SCTTXSTa 311 to S14 Ablngton bldg., 10tt 3d at Terms to . iteiiaoie . .reopie. . f . -' ' ' .
