DIR. j. Smith Dodge, upon his arrival in Wash
ington to open an office as Surgeon Dentist, pre-
scented to me letters from several friends in New
York of the highest responsibility and standing,
containing the strongest and the most favorable es
timonals, both as to the excellence of his private
character and his superior professional quafca-
tons. These satisfactory evidences of the man
and the Dentist induced me at once to engage the
professional services Of Mr.. Dodge for my own
family; and my wife and myself are now able, from
personal experience, to add our own equally favor
able testimony in his favor a gentleman and
skilful dentist. This testimony is thus given by
me- as well in obedience to the earnest solicitations
of respectable and worthy friends in New York,
who have for many years experienced the skill and
fidelity of the doctor in his profession, as to my
convictions of his personal and professional merit

respectfully tender their professional services their
friends and the public, and invite all who may re-

to their patent method of fastening artificial teeth
when set on gold plate which is used by them alone
in the city of Washington The most prominent
advantages are the following
lst 1t saves the pain attendant upon the removal
of the roots Of the front teeth when in healthy con-

them always much less troublesome and more use
full in the process of masticaton than the common
mode.

teeth, which, together with the peculiar simplicity
Of the fastenlngs, enable the to keep them al
ways clean.
The great Improvement secured by this patent
needs but to be in order to be understood and
used to be appreciated 1t is universally commend
