Dentist.
What are the young mans chances in
dentistry? We may not all agree as to
the definition Of successful dentist.
In my Judgment, he is one capable of
doing his work we'll; counted among
the best citizens of his community
man who collects his bills, pays his
debts, and saves part Of his income each
year.
The object of this article will be to
give the readers of THE CONSERVATIVE
some understanding as to the constancy
of purpose and continuity of effort re-
quired to become a successful dentist.
No doubt the same is true of any other
profession.
To begin with, the young man must
be vigorous specimen of manhood,

the idea more nearly in control, conse-
quently my opinion is, that the young
men now in railroad life, have better
chances for achieving great eminence
and we'll merited regulations along more
modern lines than ever before. On the
other hand, I feel equally confident of
the added difficulty of securing favor
able start in the railway world.
The business evolution in mercantile
and commercial life, may substitute for
partnerships and individual ownership
corporate control, thereby eliminating

some mental development, as q eonse-
quence of the three RS. He enters a
dental college to spend three years in
the study Of dentistry, before he can OBJ
tain his diploma. State laws are now
so rigid it is almost impossible to prac-
tice without first obtaining dental
degree. When he is through college,
and by the time he has his Office furn-
ished and fitted with instruments, in a
moderate way, he has invested nearly
three thousand dollars. He is now
ready to put up his sign with DR.. before
or D. D. S., after his name, and begin
what the profession knows as the
starvation PERIOD" which may last
from few months to few years, ow-
ing to his ability to make acquaintances
and inspire confidence.
For young dentist to make his own
way, unaided, is harder, and tests his
metal more, than to start with and be
recommended by his preceptor, or be-
come associated with an established
dentist, who has made a success in dent.
istry. To be success in the dental
profession is a battle with brains from
the start.
Primarily, he must have mechanical
ability. He will find his daily duties
such as the filling of teeth, making of
crowns and bridges, the adjustment of
artificial teeth, fitting regulating ap-
pliances to the natural teeth, etc., to be
the scientific application of mechanical
principles. The science of the treat
ment Of teeth by the application of med
icine is the least mechanical and most
scientific branch of dentistry, required
of the general practicing dentist, but a
branch well represented as regards the
number of patients.
For any dentist to be successful,
whether young or old, he must have
sympathetic nature and an artistic
temperament; by cultivating these
characteristics, his power to please is
increased much of his success will be
due to this potent charm. To the young
man endowed with the qualifications as
stated above, the chances are better than
ever.
People are better educated on the care
of their teeth than they have been since
dentistry was first practiced conse
quently there is greater demand for
the service of dentists; then, again,
dentistry has made much progress, in
that teeth are better cared for by the
dentist of later years, than they were
fifteen or twenty years ago; this in
creases the young mans chances.
To the young man who has the fibre
in him, willing to submit to the drudg-
cry all successful men have had to sub
NIT to, in the early years of their prac-
tice, success will come. But to the idler,
the adventurer or the craven-hearted,
who are willing to change at the first
misfortune, say, dentistry is not for

the chances, largely, for purely personal
success. Railway men being employe
of corporations, and looking for ad-
vancement under the rules that govern
their respective companies, the change
that has invaded other lines of occupa-
tion will not affect their interests in a
similar way, for the reason that the re-
ward of their efforts has not, except in
rare cases, assumed the form of owner
ship or control of the properties, whose
interests they served.

alignments and changed methods.
Abreast of this, has come an evolution
in commercial life, to meet what we
suppose to be the conditions, and to re-
tain for us the advantages, that we
now consider are ours. The question
you ask "What are the Young Mans
Chances" in view of these facts, is one
of present interest
My answer must be given from an
humble vantage ground, and my reply
has reference to the average young man,
not the child of auspicious fortunes, nor
the youth Of many disadvantages. The
issue, it seems to me, depends upon
whether or not changed conditions in a
large measure restrict opportunity. My
belief is that the opportunities for enter
ing railway service, under favorable
circumstances, are not SO frequent as in
former years
This is because of the system and Or
ganization that have been constantly 60
ing on, giving to railway employment
semi-professional tone, and requiring,
so far as may be, trained minds, and
also because of the introduction, where
ever it has been practicable, Of civil
service rules. The result has, naturally
and not artifcially, brought to the front
a class of men, to whom, all other in
fluences being equal, preferment will
be given in engaging their services at
the start, and in promoting their ad-
vancement after being employed.
In support of this view, the free en-
couragement of certain institutions,
where the theory of railroad work is be-
ing taught, or at least some branches of
the work, would seem to confirm the
statement Having once entered rail
way employ, however, the chances for
success are as favorable as ever, though
perhaps along different lines. The pri-
mary qualifications: loyalty, fidelity,
industry, and proper ambition, are as
truly requisites as ever, yet other things
must supplement these more than here
tofore.
The restrictions of wasteful competi-
ton and the introduction of ''The Com
munity of Interests Policy" probably
mean the retirement of the tonnage man
and the advancement of the man who
works for legitimate revenue. In this
new line of work will be found the
student of railroad ethics, who will be
the sagacious diplomat Of railway life.
Geography and climate, as specifically
pertaining to his road, foreign competi-
ton, and foreign market prices, as we'll
as the local environment of his company,
must be the considerations for him,
officially, so that he may conserve in
vestors' interests in satisfactory earnings
by having fully active, the various in
