PAINLESS PARKER vs. THE DENTAL TRUST It has been demonstrated that a man does not have to belong to the Dental Trust to do good dentistry. He can do work every bit as good and much fairer in price if he runs his business like a modern practi tioner, associates with him in his organization skilled specialists, buys his goods in bulk at reduced prices, advertises to attract as many patrons as possible and charges cash for the work done. The enormous patronage of the Painless Parker offices not only in Portland, Salem and Tacoma, but, also, in other large cities, is strong enough endorsement of the work done by this organization. The Painless Parker system is to bring dentistry to every body's doors. Tooth-grief multiplies like tar-weed. While you are going about your business, 'suffering from a decayed tooth or a nagging nerve, putting off the day when you will visit the fang-fixer, you are only making the matter worse and more costly for yourself. That's why the Painless Parker offices in the Northwest have, at heavy expense, sent their novel demonstra tion motor-cars throughout the thinly settled dis tricts, giving lectures on the importance of the care of one's teeth and giving conclusive illustrations of the painlessness of our operations by out-of-door work in the automobile. Many a person, who, hitherto, had paid no more attention to the teeth in his head than he had to the teeth in his harrow often not as much has been thus aroused to the danger of neglecting his chewers and has found welcome and inexpensive relief at our hands. The beauty about the Painless Parker system is that, be cause of the size of the organization, it is possible to provide patients with specialists to handle their individual cases. If it is crown work, an expert operator takes the job. Another expert looks after the bridge work; another, pyorrhea; another, filling, and so on. Not only this, but the dental work is backed with a guar antee good in any of the thirteen offices of the Painless Parker organization, or any we may open in the future. If our work needs attention, call and have it straightened out free of charge. Call, any way, once every six months, and have the ivories given the once-over, just for good luck. He Passed.

Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly compound ed, brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when (aded, streak ed or gray. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make It at home, which Is mussy and trouble some. Nowadays we simply ask at any drug store tor "Wyeth's Sage and Sul phur Compound." You will get a large bottle of this old-time recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients for about 50 cents. Everybody uses this preparation now, because no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does It so naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair dis appears, and after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and glossy and you look years younger. Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound is a delightful toil et requisite. It is not intended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of dis ease. Unprofitable.

This kind of rough talk will be heard less here in town if people troubled with corns will follow the simple advice of this Cincinnati authority, who claims that a few drops of a drug called freezone when applied to a tender, aching corn or hardened callous stops soreness at once, and soon the corn or callous dries up and lifts right off without pain. He says freezone dries immediately and never inflames or even irritates the surrounding skin. A small bottle of freezone will cost very little at any drug store, but will positively remove every hard or soft corn or callous from one's feet Millions of American women will welcome this announce ment since the inauguration of the high heels. If your druggist doesn't have freezone tell him to order a small bottle for you. Making Assurance Doubly Sure.
