equal to a months wages, but it was well
invested. 1t saved the teeth, and last week
the filling was examined and found still in
good condition.

the name of dentist was almost reproach.
Medical colleges were silent on the subject,
and but little was generally known. In
1889 the first dental journal was issued,
and the next year the first dental college
was established, in Baltimore, the gradua-
ting class being two. There are now six
dental colleges and four well conducted
,utnals devoted to this specially. The
chief improvement in fastening teeth is

toned to their use The dentist promised
to call soon with The springs, but being de-
layed, at list came with many apo ogies.
Tne woman replied tiat tho was using he
