The material for a 22-K. Gold Crown cost only about $50. A skillful dentist can make and put one on in thirty minutes. In Montgomery and Selma private dentists charge from 5000 to $20.O0 for Gold Crowns.
 It is not surprising that the Dental Parlors can cut the price to $5.00 and still have. good profit. The profit on bridge work and gold filings is about the same as on crown work, but on plates, which requires a lot of work, the profits are smaller.

DEEP SEATED COUGH CURED IN HOURS. New Home-Made Syrup.
 (Cut This Out.)
 From Boston Press

Progress in medical compounds never ceases. and now 1t Is stated by a prom inent medical man that any deep-seat- ed cough or cold on the lungs can be actually cured in five hours by the clock. Opium and morphine have been resorted to in the past as relief meas ures But now 1t Is learned that the system must be treated to rid 1t of in- fammation and congestion. A tonio laxative cough syrup does the work so quickly and thoroughly as to be almost magical. What heretofore has taken weeks to cure can be accomplished in hours. Get this formula filled or mix 1t at home and always keep 1t on hand: One-half ounce fluid wild cherry bark, one ounce compound essence car diol and three ounces syrup white pine compound. Shake the bottle and take twenty drops every half hour for four hours. Then take one-half to one tea spoonful three or four times a day un- Give children less according to age. til the system is purified and toned up. One filling will usually cure a whole family, as the dose is small.
