There can't be gold mines and

til:
will show you where some
dollars are hiding on your
farm that you never
dreamed were there. Does
that sound like a pretty big
statement? Well, after
you've started reading The
Country Gentleman you'll
agree with me and thank
me for telling you about
it. Every issue is brimful
of money-making, labor
saving ideas and sugges
tions. Every member of
your family will look for
ward to its arrival "every
week. Every department
is up to date, interes'ting
and entertaining.
And for only il The
Country Gentleman will
come to you for a whole
year fifty-two issues-to
make your farm more prof
itable and your home life
more enjoyable.
I'd like to tell you more
about it and show you
some copies. No mstfter
how many farm papers you
get no w or what they are,
you are missing something
BIG every week by not
reading The Country
Gentleman. Drop me a
postcard today and I'll
prove to you that I'm right.

WHAT SORT OF
YOUR DENTIST
A DEAL HAS
GIVEN YOU?
Did any of the tooth-tappers of your acquaintance ever look
into your month without charging you for the privilege?
Did any of 'em ever tell you what was wrong with your molars
and instruct you about your dental apparatus without slap
ping a generous charge on the bill
. ,
Did any of them do anything so unbusinesslike as to make out
first a carefully itemised estimate for you, showing just
wHat work had to be done on each tooth and showing the
cost of material and laborjrequired on -each?
Did any of the professional practitioners in your experienct
ever act as if he was a business man, selling dentistry, or
did he go at you as if you were an easy mark, to be kept in
ignorance and then charged any old thing, just because
yen didn't know better?
Bid any dental office, visited by you, select a specialist to do
the particular work you required, or did te same man try
to give you an equally good job wether it was plate work
or crown work by filling r r any of the six or seven branch
es of dentistry?- i
Did any of the tnsk-trimmers give you work that was 'guaran
teed and repeatedly proved both painless and harmless?
Did you always succeed in petting the! best materials in the
market at the Lowest possible price to you, or did you just
. pay whatever the wise-looking dento-brigand told you to
pay as he shoved his professional pistol up under your
chin?
Did any of the cuspid-cutters bother to see whether you kept
your teeth in good condition and make you drop aroundr
once every six months to have your jaws given the once;
