AN AMERICAN; CHARACTER.

One Of the most extraordinary specimens
of American character is the successful liti-

the great invention by which it has been
rendered so servicable to man... This is
Horace H.'Day, Of New York, a man Of mid

no external asdGr aPp!ianeeS batfelying en-

indomitable hopefulness, who has lsingly

Of enemies and vast array Of legal talent,

DISTINGUISHING OR Artificial BONE FOR
FILLING TEETH.-Dy DR.. James Pearson,
Broadway, n. Y. This article has many
advantages over all other Filings; you can
color it while in a plastic state to suit the
shade Of the tooth you wish to fill. 1t does
not harden so quickly but that you may
have plenty of time to finish it smoothly
yet it hardcns in few minutes 50 as not to
be disturbed by the movements Of the
tongue. or even rinsing the mouth, and in a
few hours it will resist the action of masti
catication as was proven on the spot by
the doctor, who filled several cavities in the
teeth Of many dentists present.
One ounce Of the osteoplastic will fill as
many cavities as two ounces of gold foil. -,
Another great advantage the osteoplastic
possesses over gold for filling. is the fact Of
its being non 7conductor-no after pain is
experienced by the patient from hot or. cold
drinks, as is often the, case with gold u
other filings. Ityalso adheres firmly to the
bone, consequently. is not liable to come out
Of 'ill-shaped cavities, AS it is introduced in
plastic state, it saves much.time and trou-
bic, and requires little or no pressure; the
most achcate 'front.' teeth! can bs per-
tectly, filed and restored to. their original
beauty, no matter. how badly decayed, if not
otherwise diseased. ..sI,.y ';[t.,'a
The osteoplastic never changes color or
diiseolors the tooth, hence, its peculiar adapt
ability for front teeth. =, ;,
