Men failed to appreciate the doctors

striped pole, the white to advertise
the BARRIERS lather, the red to adver-
tise the letting II blood.
We have not learned, partly, to
realize the Importance of the doctor.
the genius of diagnosis, the skill Of
the surgeon and oil the specialists
whose work increases the average
length of life.
The dentist is as yet unappreciated,
the position Of hpnor to which he is
entitled not accorded to him.
In war, in peace, in youth and old
age, in industry. n art, the dentist
can be, should be, and would be, if
properly encouraged, an agent for
good excelled by none.
They say that an army travels on
its stomaeh-namely, upon what it
eats.
The benefit of what the army eats
depends upon the teeth with which
the eating is done.
Good teeth mean good Indigestion
and upon good digestion depend the
man and the mans mind
Neglect of decaying teeth means
suppuration in the gums, the absorb
ing of poison which weakens the body
and destroys life.
If you could eliminate every decay

years to the average life, save valu-
able men for useful work, and cut
down by at least so per cent the num-
Der of wasted days spent in illness.
All this the dentists could do, if
properly appreciated and encouraged.
AS civilization has changed the lives
Of men, it has injured their teeth and
increased their diseases.
Soft food, rapid eating, the fendish
American quick lunch-all these are
curses that the skillful dentist alone
can counteract.
Find a capable, conscientious den
tlst-there are many. See him regu-
larly and often; take your children be-
ginning with their first teeth.
The more regularly and the oftener
you go to a good dentist, the less
work will be done to your teeth and
the less your teeth will have cost you
at the. end Of life.
Do not wait to have some skilled
dental mechanic fill your mouth with
artificial teeth. Go now and keep the
teeth that you have.
They will outlast you, no matter
how long you live, if you have the
right man to take care of them.
Chicago welcomes the 5000 dentists.
They have come to the right. city.
For this is destined within few
years to be the greatest city in the
world. And it will be one of the first
to recognize the Importance of the
skillful dentist, honor and encourage
him.-Editorial, Chicago Tribune.
