regard the stranger with looks particularly sad,

BY and by he approached him, and said: Can
see YOU outside the door for few minutes!' Ger
tain1y. sir,' said the northerner, but not without
some misgiving: The moment the door had closed
behind them, the moody man reached over his
hand between his shoulders and drew from peck
ct tremendous bowie knife, bigger than French
carver and, as its broad blade flashed in the moon
light, the stranger thought his time had come:
sPut up your scythe,' said he, 'and tell me what
have done to provoke your hostility, Done.

me ten dollars it, stranger. I'll win II back for

and sure enough, in less than the time mentioned,
the knife was redeemed, and the incorngible

No. 81 Bond Street, near Broadtcdy, New York,
N URING his practice in Washington city, in
IL 1874, secured TO himself by Letters Patent a
new mode Of fastening ARTIFICIAL TEETH, which
saves most of the pain usually given, holds the
teeth firmly in their place, and enables the wearer
to keep the mouth perfectly clean. Out of several
hundred cases there has been but one failure in
seven years.
From Hon. Silas Wright, jr., United States Senator
from the State Of New York.
WAsHrNoroN, d. c., Feb. Is, lS43
DIR. j. Smith Dodge, upon his arrival in Wash-
ington to open Office Surgeon. Dentist, -
scented to me letters from several friends in New
York Of the highest respectability and standing,
containing the strongest and most favorable testi-
mohials, both as to the excellence of his private
character and his superior professional qualifca-
tons. These satisfactory evidences of the man
and the dentist induced me at once to engage the
professional services Of DR.. Dodge for my own
family and my wife and myself are now able,
from personal experience, to add our own equally
favorable testimony in his favor az gentleman
and a skilful Dentist. This testimony is thus
given by me- as well in obedience to the earnest So
citations of respectable and worthy friends in New
York, who have for many years experienced the
skill and fidelity of the Doctor in his profession,
to my own convictions of lis personal and profess
sional merits. SILAS WRIGHT, in.
