And stomach trouble is one of the commonest
ailments that come from bad teeth. You can
easily see that the poisons from bad teeth are
transmitted directly into the stomach as the food
comes in contact with the teeth in the process Of
mastication. 1t must be evident to you that these
poiSonS 'are going to exercise bad effect on the
Stomach-tha they are going TO interfere and
interfere seriously with the digestive apparatus.
And there is no one thing that can bring as much
real misery to a person as to have his digestive
organs out of order. Your physician will tell you
the same thing if you will talk the matter over with
him.
Altogether, for person who has bad teeth, TO
neglect them and let this condition continue is
about the most foolish thing that he can do.
Now, just a word as to what we have TO OTTER
you in the way of dental service at this office. In
the first place. have of the largest and best
equipped dental offices in the United States. We
make this statement unreservedly and without fear
of successful contradiction.
We occupy the entire floor on which our offices
are located. When it comes to equipment, we
have practically everything that modern science has
perfected for the better performance of painless
dentistry. We have spared no expense in fitting
up our offices Our only idea has been to give the
people of Seattle the very best.
Second-Every operator on our staff is gradu-
ate registered dentist. Every one of them has his
certificate from the state dental board hanging
right on the wall in front of his dental chair in
plain sight of all. This proves to you beyond the
shadow of doubt that he knows his business,
and knows it thoroughly. 1t shows you that he
spent years of hard study under competent inStruc-
tors and has then passed thorough and search
ing examination before the state dental board as
TO his knowledge and ability to practice dentistry
and do it right.
When you see this certificate you may rest as
Sured that the holder of it is man of experience
and that your work will be done the way it ought
to be done to give you lasting and permanent sat
isfactOn.

many who have put off having necessary dental
work done on account of being afraid of being

delay no lOnger' on this account
4TH-LOWEST PRICES
Quantity regulates price This is fundamental
axiom of business that cannot be denied. There
fore, the fact that we do a very large volume of
business permits us to take smaller profit on the
individual patient than an office which does only
one-third to one-half of the volume that we do can
possibly afford to take. So when you compare
prices with others you will find that ours are
the lowest especially considering the fact that we
turn out nothing but the very highest grade of
work.
5TH-BEST OF MATERIALS :
The best is the only kind of material that we
can afford to use. We found this out long ago.
6TH-OUR GUARANTEE
is binding agreement on our part that if for any
reason whatever work done at this office does not
give you entire. satisfaction, come back to us and
we will make it right. This guarantee is signed
both by the operator who did the work and by
L. R. Clark, d. d. S., owner and manager of this
office, who is thoroughly responsible.

FREE EXAMINATION .
We invite you to call at our office and let one of
our experts give your teeth thorough exanina-
ton. He will tell you just what is needed to put
your teeth into perfect condition and also just what
the cost will be. This examination and estimate
won't cost you cent nor will it put you under
any obligation to have work done unless you
want it.
But for your own sake you ought not to neglect
this important matter a moment longer than you
can possibly help.
Don't you think it is about time that you gave
yourself the advantage of good set of teeth?
