Your doctor will very likely give
you the same advice. He is almost
sure to If he is right up to date on
the latest information Of his profess
sion.
Take rheumatism, for instance
many cases of this most painful dis
ease have been treated in all sorts Of
ways-with medicines, baths, etc,
ETC., when oftentimes the whole
trouble lay right at the diseased root
Of some tooth or teeth. You can see
just how impossible it would be to
cure the diseased condition till you
got at the source Of trouble, the root
81 the tooth itself.
And one Of the most deceiving
things about it is that the tooth with
the bad root may appear on the out
side to be a perfectly sound and
healthy tooth. In fact it may feel
that way, too, and not give you the
slightest pain or discomfort. If
diseased condition exists in this sort
of tooth only the expert dentist can
discover it for You, Of course.
So our earnest advice to you is,
consult good dentist-but be sure
it is a good one.

You Can Enjoy the Benefits
of Good Teeth

Don't let anyone tell you for minute that
you can't have good teeth. A tooth has got
to be in mighty bad shape in the first place
If we can't save it for you-and where it is
absolutely necessary TO remove a tooth we can
replace it with an artificial tooth that will
give you practically as good service and look
nearly il not quite as COED as the original
article.
But the big thing about your teeth is not
to neglect them-not to let them go along
week after week and month after month and
year after year while they are slowly decay
ing and sending their streams of poisons into
your system with the consequent danger to
your general health.
And bad teeth surely do have most de-
structive effect on the health. That is fact
that is so well established now that no one
who KNOWS would think for a minute of
denying it. The poisons which are created
by Assesses around the roots Of teeth are re-
sponsible for great many human ills which
heretofore have been charged to entirely
different causes. Among these ailments we
might mention

SEVERAL THOUSAND
PERSONS SAVED BY THE
LET'S FROM BOLSHEVIKI
fBy Associated Press.)

Stockholm, July 1.-THE lives OF
several thousand persons OF the MD
die classes at Riga were saved by the
Let's when they surprised the Boil
sheviki and captured that city on
Nav 10. These people had been held
as hostages by the Bolsheviki. The
suddenness with which the l.ettish
veomanry captured the city in half
hour rush prevented the Bolsheviki
from numbering them. Only N one
large central prison outside the city
whore the Let's were ten minutes
late did the Bolsheviki have time to
kill more than 100 educated persons.
This information has been brought
here by Hans Fraenckel, who has re-
turned to Stockholm from an adven-
turous trip to Riga in a motor poa'
~ roscue some of his friends. Fraen-
excl saved thirteen persons and
brought them with him to Stockholm
He said the situation at Riga was
,rorso than any description could
,,foture Famine had paralyzed eV-
ervthing and the inhabitants looked
like shadows. Traces of the terror
that had converted Riga into real
inferno were to be seen everywhere
Corpses we're lying in the streets =.
The people were most pessimistif
and the future looked hopeless fol :
their pilIaged city. They doubted I
% n could be held against the Bolshe'
Wiki unless the Allied powers gave
military support.
