a few days ago a man called on me
and asked me to pull one of his teeth.
When told him to open his mouth
and show me which was the aching
tooth, he replied that he never had q
toothache in his life, but that he was
sick and had been advised to consult O
dentist. There was something so orig
inal in this that l pressed him for an
explanation, and finally learned that
he had consulted a faith healer, who
had seriously advised him to have q
sound tooth extracted to euro some
disease, which 1 should imagine was
malaria aggravated by an unlimited
indulgence in bad beer. l tried to
argue the fellow into sense, but failed,

his mouth quite so freely" Ident
