SOUND ARGUMENT ON

A MONG the numerous inventions made and
"A perfected i'll this country, ranks high the
useful art of Dentistry But why Because
Teeth we nso to chew our food and tools kept in
good order are always preferable to work with.
On our teeth depends the shape of our mouths,
which should never be suffered to become I'M
pleasant to behold.
1t is, to II great extent, owing TO the condition
of our teeth, whether we enjoy an agreeable
breath or otherwise. 1t is often caused by the
inpeltoction of our teeth. when we find it diff

beautiful teeth are the most useful they are not
destined for particular occasions OF seasons nay,
"c need them constantly; aud we should there
