New York, having practised the three past winters
in this city, respectfully announce to their friends
and the public that they have concluded to keep
their Washington Office open during the entire year
in future at their present location on Pennsylvania
avenue near Tenth street, where one or both Of the
partners may always be found in attendance. They
respectfully tender their professional services to their
friends and the public, and invite all who may re-
quIre the advice and skill Of the experienced and
practical dentist to call on them learn their terms
and examine their claims to public confidence and
patronage. They would particularly call attention
TO their patent method Of fastening artificial teeth
when on gold plate which is used by them alone
in the city of Washington. The most prominen,
advantages are the following:
LIST. II saves the pain attendant upon the removal
of the roots Of the front teeth when in healthy con-
dlton, aud makes those roots highly useful in fast
ening the artificial teeth.
3D. 1t gives the teeth greater frmness, rendering
them always much less troublesome and more use
fu in the process of masticaton than the common
mode.
Sd. 1t renders it easy to remove and replace the
teeth, which, together with the peculiar simplicity
of the fastenings, enable the to keep them al
ways clean.
The great improvement secured by this patent
needs but to be seen in order to be understood and
used to be appreciated 1t is universally commend
cd by those who have awaited themselves of its adj
vanages.

~ ~ u NS.-
The following article is copied from the Brooklyn
STAR in which paper it appeared editoriay The rep
utatlon of he Rev. DR.. Cox is sufficient to warrant
the public that, far he is concerned, this tes-
monia in favor of the galvanc plaster IS entirely
free from deception; and, in fact, all of the cer,if
Gates obtained for these pasers of the I'M
exceptionable character
1--WE take pleasure in referring our readers to the
following certificate in connexon with the adver-
tisement in our columns to-day. Emanatng, as it
does, from the good heart and sound head Of gen.
tleman well and favorably known in this com
munity as the Rev. S. Fl. Cox. d. D., of this city
any commentator of ours would be wholly super
huous. The certificate ITSELF in connexion with
scores of others of like character, speaks for ITSELF
and sceptics have only to see, examine, and Judge
for themselves.
81 have had the pleasure and the profit ofproving
lately the value of the galvanic strengthening
plaster in its application near my right shoulder
where felt novel sensation Of rheumatism. II
seems well adapted to its end; and without knowl-
edge OF itscoDsttuent properties caring scientific
ally about its chemical galvanic action, | am
happy, from experience, to commend its sanative
virtues to all with whom my name may possibly
have influence as safe, neat, protecting, pleasant
and effcacous preparation Of the sort; which, with
out any disparagement of Others may be safely and
appropriately praised on its own account.

yea 1871 or 1922 by the name John, as his Chris

1t is my hns and only Christian ndpts by said eerti

testify, no legislative action Of to confirm said
state of things, since Christian name is the .reh-
Apt gin Of God, by impulse Of the Holy SacrameLt
Of Baptism, through the agency Of His Divine Ma
iesty's minister and since the constitution and laws
Of the United States government grants and secures
