stands 10 reason that we can afford
10 take smaller profit on the indi-
vidual patient than an office which
does only one-third to one-half Of
the volume that we do can possibly
afford to take.
We use the very best of materials.
We found out long ago that the best.
materials are the only kind that will
turn out work that will give lasting
and permanent satisfaction. We ex-
pect to so please and satisfy each
patient that they viii not only re-
turn TO us again in the future when
in need of dental service, but will
also gladly recommend their friends
10 us.
We guarantee all work that leaves
this Office with an ironclad guarantee
of satisfaction, which is signed both
by the operator who did the work
and also by L. r. Clark, D. d. s.,
owner and manager of this office,
who is thoroughly responsible.
We guarantee painless methods.
We have brought our system of pain
less dentistry TO such a high point
of perfection that we are now abls>
TO guarantee TO perform the most
difficult dental operations without
hurting the patient bit.
We invite you to call at our Of

your teeth a thorough examination.

Just what ii will cost you TO have
them put into perfect condition.
This examination and estimate
won't cost you a cent, nor will it
put you under any obligation to have
further work done unless you want

But we wish to say TO YOU that
no matter what il may cost YOU to
get your teeth fixed up right, il will
be worth a great deal more TO you
than the cost

the system by the most direct pos
sible route when the food comes into
contact with W. teeth in the process
OF chewing.
Rheumatism is one OF the most
common, as we'll as one Of the most
painful of human ailments. II is
now a well established fact that
many cases Of so-called "rheuma-
tism" are caused directly by bad
teeth. Tiny puS sacs form around
the roots OF the decaying teeth This
puS is distributed through the SyS-
tenn and gathers at the joints and
other places, causing soreness and
inflammation, popularity known as
rheumatism" In many cases all
these unpleasant symptoms disap-
pear when the teeth are put into
proper condition.
Altogether, il is hard to imagine
a more destructive agent on the hui
man body than decaying tooth.
Just imagine what it means then
when person has a number Of de-
caying teeth in the mouth al once,
as many people have.
II is very simple matter for any
one to have good teeth these days.
We offer you, for instance, at this
Office the services of high-grade
graduate, registered dentiStS-men of
the highest standing in their profess
sion, men who have graduated from
the best dental colleges and have
successfully passed a thorough and
searching examination as to their
knowledge and qualifications to prac-
tice dentistry, before the state dem

If There Be Such a Thing as
a Royal Road to Success
III Is EFFICIENCY

Efficiency is the big rOord these
days. And that means doing whatever
Work ,De set our hands to, the nearest
possible to perfect With least waste
effort and friction.
And efficiency in the individual i'm
plies good health; and to haze the
best possible health one must be in the
best possible physical condition.
After years of study of the subject,
zoe are convinced that no one thing has
a more Uital bearing on the health of
the individual than the teeth.
Bad teeth are responsible for multitude of
human ills. They interfere seriously with the
proper maSticaton of the food in the first place.
This is very likely TO result in an impaired d.
gestion. Then they produce within themselves
virulent poisons, just the same as any other part
OF the anatomy would if ii were in decaying
condition. These poisonS are transmitted into
