Great improvements have been made
i'll dentistry, as well as in almost every
thing else. When we can first remember,
there were no dentists in this county.
When man had the toOthache, he went
to the nearest blacksmith, and if the
blacksmith had the old turnkey tooth
drawers, he would fasten them upon the
tooth. and it had to come. and often a
piece of the jhw-bone came with it. If
the blacksmith did not have the tooth
drawers, he would set a punch against the
tooth, and tap it with a small hammer, and
the tooth came, and pretty certain slice
of the jaw-bone.
For some time one of our teeth had
been so worn with age and daily use, that
it was tender. On last Saturday night
we were awakened by violent pain in
our head, on the left side, running into
our ear and throat. 1t got no better, and
at eleven o'clock ON Sunday we sent for
DR.. Boggess, the Dentist. He was at
church, but in short time he arrived
not with turnkey, or blacksmith's
punch, but with three or four pairs of
forceps-bright and shining, and in few
menutes the old tooth was out. Oh how
sweetly we slept on Sunday night!
During the past twenty years DIR. Bog
CESS has done a lurge amount of work for
US, and for members of our family, and he
has never made failure. AS a dentist,
he is a complete success

There are few cranks who pretend to
think that coffee is not healthy; but we
have used coffee every day for more than
thirty years, and have had better health
during that time than we had
during the twenty years preceding, when
we did not use it.
About the beginning Of this year we
heard woman who is a good judge iof
coffee say that the best coffee she ever
used, she got at the store of D. d. Dun
gan.
1t is true of all other kinds of groceries
and provisions, that DUNCAN keeps goods
of the first quality. He has had large ex-
perience in this line of trade, and is very
competent judge of that line of goods,
and he gives his entire attention to gro
ceries and provisions, and cannot be easi-
ly deceived in such goods.
Start out with buying your provisions
of DUNCAN this year. and you will be apt
to buy from him all through the year.
