| Will Keep Dental
Prices Down!

Many people have asked me why I
don't charge 0 for my work. In
fact, some of the leading dentists
of the South have gone so far as to
say | was foolish for not charging
great big prices.
So far as my work is concerned, I would
be justified in charging the highest prices
in the South, for | am turning out the best
work but that is not my policy My life's
ambition has been, of course to make
money, but in making money to build up
a reputation and standing in my profes-
sion, My idea of the best way to accom-
plish this has always been and always
will be to give everyone the most possible
for their money, and depend on volume
for my profits. In doing thiseI beucfit not
only myself, but am rendering a genuine
service to my fellow man. It is the right
way-for me it has proven the best way,
and J. assure you once more that Or. Win
frcy's prices will always be the lowest
possible on the best work. y

Year-These Prices Will Do It!

My policy from the time opened this office seventeen years ago has been vol
une of business and small profits. The year 1919 will be one of high and un-
certain prices on every commodity, but Notwithstanding this fact my volume of
business has reached the point where can announce a decided decrease in my
prices for the year 1919. This is done with a confidence that the people of this
community know and appreciate my methods, and that their continued and in
creased patronage will make it possIDe. for me to make 1919 the banner year of
nyhe. Remember am your dentist. am sharing my profits with you, and

My Frank and Open
Methods Appeal

Come to my office. | will examine your teeth without
charge, show YOU just what can be done, and tell you what
it will cost. This examination will not obligate you to have
me do your work, but should you decide to have me do it,
my terms will be one-half cash, balance when work is COM
pleted. No, | won't credit You. I credit no one. This is
another of the little reasons why my prices are low. I have
no bad debts, no credit losses. You pay for your own work
only, and not to make up credit losses on other patients.
My office is conducted strictly on a business basis. Each
patient is treated with the utmost courtesy, but we are too
busy to visit.
