New Method of Dentistry

introduced In Paris in the form OF
treatment of the teeth by ultraviolet
rays.
Such rays, from mercury lamp, II
Is asserted, have the power of whiten-
ing discolored teeth and sterilizing them
In such a way that they are not sc
easily liable to decay. The teeth to be
treated are isolated from the rest
which are covered with rubber shield
The face, too, is protected by mask
The teeth are then washed with oxy-
genated water and exposed for an hour
to the direct action of the rays.
1t is stated that the teeth acquire
a luster like that of pearls. Two sittings
q year are recommended to keep the
teeth in good condition.

Quite bit of agitation has been here for the last
few weeks among the business and various citizens of the

ought be built direct continuing with First street. and that
the money for grading the should be gotten by SUBJ

WINSLOW NEEDS
MORE RESIDENCES

Winslow is sadly in need of
about fifty more residences for
homes at the present time. Day
after day people come to this
office inquiring for houses to
rent and we think we are safe in
saying that at present there is
not a vacant house in town. 1t
seems that some Of our people
who have money that could be
used to very good advantage in
building homes to rent will al
ways fall for some other invest
ments away from home, gener-
ally some get-rich-quick scheme
that generally fails to pan out.
Homes can be built in Winslow
for about $4,000 that will bring
the investor at least $25 per
month rent, year in and year out.
and if there were at least fifty
more houses built here within
the next month there would not
be the least danger of having any
one of them vacant a month.

consitisng Of a number Of shacks
and the well-drilling apparatus
of the company known here as
the Northern Arizona Oil Co.,
who have a few years ago been
prospecting for oil in this vicin-

drilling apparatus was made by
Messrs. P. F. Plus, Barnett
Stiles and A. H. Hansen. The
best bid for the shacks was made
by Mr.. Chas. Daze, who has sold
some of them, and will move the
rest to town for his own use and

had been confined to his bed for
about month and kept getting
worse from day to day until
last Sunday, when it was notice
able that the end was near, and
he met his fate without muir
mur, showing no visible means
of pain, and slightly throwing
his head to one side he closed his
eyes forever.
Mr.. Seeger, accompanied by
his family, came to Winslow
overland in a wagon from the
east in the year 1886, and lived
here up to the time of his death.
While here he has been engaged
in various businesses, conducting
the beer and ice business here
for years, until the present cold
storage plant was erected.
The deceased leaves three sons
and daughter, Mrs. T. F. Dye,
Thomas, Joseph and Henry Seeg-
er, all Of whom are married. The

Diego.
The deceased was laid to rest
Monday afternoon at 4 o'clock
from the home of his daughter,
Mrs. Dye, and simple funeral
services were conducted at the
grave by members of the Order
of Owls in accordance with his
lagt wishes.
A number of hymns were sung
by Messrs. A. E. Gillard, Stew
art Fogarty, Gerald Moore, Pari-
gold and Burl Vincent, which
was pronounced very good by all
who heard them.

Flickenger, C. L. Hathaway,
Byron G. Yount and JOS. j.

to a fine concert by the Indian
Boy Band of Luepp, which
played a concert while waiting
for their train enroute to Kansas
for the summer. The band has
only been organized six months.
Previous to that time the boys
did not know what a band in
strument was like. The success
Of the band is due to the capable
instruction of Prof. C. R. Rivera,
one of the finest band leaders. in
this country; by his fine work

R. P. Hesser, general painter
and paper-hanger has this week
completed his. new paint-shop in
the rear of Mitchell's blacksmith
shop. The building is 20x30 feet
and dust-proof. On account of
the nature Of fine work that Mr..
Hesser has been doing in the
past he saw that there was a de-
mand for such a shop and erect
ed the same to meet the demand.
The building will be used to paint
carriages, wagons and automo-
biles, which have to be painted
in a place where they will be
free from dust until they are
completed. Mr.. Hesser has
enough orders ahead for that
class Of work at the present time
to last him for many weeks.

Graduating exercises were held
Thursday of this week at the
Flagstaff Normal. There were 13
graduates, II girls and two boys,
the boys being from Winslow,
namely Linn DunkIin and Arthur
T. taPrade, and who are the first
two boy graduates from Winslow
at the Normal. According to
Mayor LaPrade, who was present
and witnessed the exercises, the
children are doing fine and
praises the teachers in general
for their good work, and says
that if any of the people of Wins
low want their children to have
first-class schooling they cannot
do better anywhere else than
they could by sending them to
the Normal at Flagstaff. He also
stated that the normal was pretty
well crowded with students this
last term and that the only fault
he could find with the same
would be the lack of room for
more students the coming season,
which no doubt will be remedied.
Among those present at the ex-
ercises from Winslow were Mrs.
A. j. Henderson and son Elmer,
who was attending the normal,
Mrs. Dunklin, accompanied by
her daughter Ruth and son Dan,
and the Misses Dadey.
