Good teeth are vital.
How about yours?
We have a sensible. rational and en-
tirely effective plan of restoring miss

this result without having to half MI

A partial plate can't be made so 1t

trivance or chew his food properly
An ordinary bridge is high in the
middle like ''cantiIever'' structure
and it is both dangerous and painful
TO bite on-dangerous because il is apt
to snap in too under the strain, pain
full because the constant strain irri-
tates the teeth to which il is anchored
and finally ruins them

weight of the world and conqueror of
Battling Nelson. that young gentleman
intends to jump into the millionaire class

nouncement was that he had picked the
theatrical circuit as a means to clean up
between now and next September. The
Milwaukee Dutchman is booked for long
tour before the footlights and will make
his debut next Monday at Kansas City
I have been made a princely offer, ="
said Wolgast, "and. of course, as we are
all out for the money these days, could
do nothing else than accept. Then, you
know. it is quite the style for ring. cham
pions to turn Thespians during the of

pot-' To thicken the plot. Wolgast, after
brief stay in Chicago, hoped on a
train with Mulkern. and headed for the
Cream City. The champion denied the
story aud added that he was perfectly
satisfied with Tom Jones. his present
manager.
Wolgast intends to again don the mitt
in September, and assured those present
that he would not bar any one who
wished 10 take a shy at the title. The
champ concluded by saying that he is
more than willing to take on Nelson
again and that he viii beat him in the
same way.
