Wonderful Results
DENTAL WORK
TIL AT LASTS
Prices That All Can Afford
to Pay

The Red Cross Dentists have
been established in this city for
only six months. and yet in that
time they have demonstrated be-
yond possibility of a doubt that
the best dentistry at the lowest
prices is the proposition that the
people appreciate. When they told
the people that they would make
the very best 22k. solid gold crown
for $3.50, and the very best rub
Der plate for $3.50, the public
could not understand how such a
thing could be done. They were
accustomed to pay So to $40 for
the best gold crown and SIS to
500 for the best plates, and they
could not realize that dental work
could be done for less. The Red
Cross Dentists. however, have
proven that the highest class of
work was not necessarily the most
expensive. They have built up a
practice, the largest in the city, on
the proposition that the best work
at the lowest prices, with an alb
solutely bona fide, written guar
antee is what the people want. All
the dentists in this office are grad
uate. licensed and competent. They
employ no cheap laboratory boys
to do their work. They look for
their profits from the volume of
business and careful attention to
all details. Their office is off Riv-
erside avenue. and what they save
In rent over equal space on the
main thoroughfare, their patients
save on their dental bill. This is

GETTING
NERVOUS
At RENO
BY MAX BALTHASAR.

MoANA SPRINGS, Reno, June
27.-With the fight week away.
signs Of nervousness are beginning
to develop, and for the next seven
days the "tenterhook" viii! occupy a
prominent place in the fight gossip.
In Jeffries' camp every one 10 on
edge today. Farmer Burns. Jim
corbett and Roger ConnelI are
wearing anxious looks and whom
ever they get together they 90 over
tho situation with all the gravity OF
a bunch Of senators trying to slip a
railroad bill over.
That Jeffr,es is in shape, his
trainers all emphatically declare,
but his plan of battle and how to
take care of him give the trainers
plenty to think Of. Although Jeff
has not declared himself, the gen.
eral feeling is that he is going to
fight his own fight and that he will
listen to no advice while in the
ring, nuless it is to heed the word
of Corbett when danger threatens.
Each night the training squad get
together and discuss the matter of
picking seconds and up to today
they were no nearer conclusion
than they were at Rowardennan.
Burns, Choynski, Cornell and Cor
bett are sure to be in the corner,
but what their functions will be is
unsettled except in the case of Cor
nell. Taking care of any cuts that
Johnsons blows may inflict and
looking after the giants legs will be
his assigned duty. and even now he
is preparing for every contingency
that may arise.
Jeffries seems to be entirely care
free. But as the day for the begin
ming of the drying out process APP
proaches he is bothering himself a
bit. His moods are becoming
changeable; he frets If what he has
planned is not quickly consum-
mated and if he is crossed he let's
out an angry growl. Sunday was
another of his days of rest. He was
up with the larks and before he had
eaten breakfast he was telephoning
for favorite fishing companion, for
whom he sent his automobile. All
morning long they fished, hooking
good catch and returning to camp
about noon.
Instead of working in the after
noon for the edification of the
crowd that took a chance with the
heat and rode out to Moana, he
jumped into his machine. rushed
away and did not show up again
during the afternoon. The crowds
are not discouraged, however. and
! even before Jeffries had finished
his breakfast today the pilgrimage
to Moana had begun, in the hope of
seeing him go through some hot
training stunts.
In Reno itself nothing is dis
cussed save the fight. The people
have taken a great interest in the
affair and the hot sermon preached
against 1t yesterday called forth
more adverse criticism than ap
