the Truthful Narration of n Dentist
Who Knew His Business.
The man in the chair Of torture was
demonstrating with the doctor of den

That's all right" said the dentist,
but you are foolish not to let me
build that tooth up with gold for you"
What's the use? 1t will cost me
forty dollars, you say, and l cannot at

to a story. About ten years ago was
trying TIC make a living in the west in
partnership with a fellow who wasn't
any lucl1ier than I was. We worked
around to the north, where the winters
are bad as they are in the Klondike
and our funds kept getting low
er and lower until starvation sat
down to table with us. The weather
was getting colder. too. and the last
wagon train out was booked for the
following Sunday, then two days away.
1t was our last chance. for to remain
there for the four months till the trail

price to go with the train was twenty
five dollars each. Just what twenty
tive dollars amounts to you will never
know until you uoed it as badly as we
did
We hadn't cent on earth and
nothing to put up to get one with. 1t
was indeed Il cold day for both OF us.
BY Saturday noon we had given up all
hope of getting out. and had retired to
our shanty to drown our sorrows in a
quart of whisky we had discovered. no
matter how AS we sat gazing in stu
pid despair at each other with the full
bottle between us. my partner grinned
n CHASTITY grin and the CLEAN of the
GOLD in his filled teeth caught my eve
| concealed my feelings and quietly
asked him how many teeth he had fill

one of them was nearly Il solid gold

idea to him. and in another minute
had my tools. for had been studying
dentistry then. at work in his mouth,
digging away like a miner 1t was a
rich field. and In half an hour l had
out every bit of gold in those teeth OF
his and had beaten it up into wad
that we took to the owner of saloon
who knew what raw gold was worth
He looked it over and offered sixty dol
lars for the wad
My partner kept his mouth shut
and so did I, and when the train moved
out with its wagons next day we had
our place in the front row and five
dollars apiece spending money. Six
months later we struck luck and fill
