so many pictures is because of his
illfitting hand-carved dentures,
held together by springs Gilbert
Stuart, who painted his portrait,
tried to overcome this facial de-
formity by wadding the First Pres
ident's cheeks with cotton, giving
him a~'grandmotherly" face. How
different dentures are today-light,
flesh-colored plastic plates with
perfectly shaped teeth, the dentures

TT was during the 18th century
that dentistry began to make rapid
strides" DR.. Floria recalls. pierre
Fauchard, F'renchman, known as
the father of modern dentistry,
made a set of instruments which,
in crude form, resemble those of
today. Some of the theories he
advanced in his book on dentistry
are still in vogue. The drug he used
for toothaches, oil of cloves, is
found in dental Offices today. He
exploded the popular myth that
worms cause tooth decay"
Americans revolutionized dentiS-
try with such inventions as tooth
drills and the perfection of anes-
theticS, he points out. DR.. Horace
Wells. often referred to as the
father of painless dentistry, came
up with the idea of using laughing
gas nitrous oxide) in tooth re-
moval while taking part in what
might be called a thrill session.
Out of curiosity, he attended a

meeting after reading this notice
in the Hartford Conn., Courant
of December 10, 1874:
"a grand exhibition of the
effects by inhaling laughing gas
will be given in Union Hall, :.
Forty gallons of gas will be pre-
pared and administered to the
audience. No language can
describe the delightful sensation
produced Qadies will have room
to themselves) Tickets Is cents"
Dentistry today, with its X-ray
machines to pinpoint dental diff
culties, with its highly trained
dentists and laboratory technicians
to do exacting work, its numerous
anestheticS (some 1900 American
dentists also use hypnosis, its
soundleSS drill, its sterilization tech
niques, its tooth decay preventives
such as huoridation of drinking
water-and its germ-killing tooth
pastes and mouth washes, has done
much to prevent aching teeth and
gums.
But, with all of our modern dental
techniques, we may never have it
so painless as the patients who
followed the advice of this 18th
century barber-surgeon:
ITO avoid a toothache, wash daily
in this sequence: First the face,
then the neck and last the hands
drying those parts in the
reverse order. THIS METHOD IS
PROVEN!"

IRON India, where fakirs

that involves teeth. DR..
Panduranga Vishnu Jay
ade, an Indian dentist
skilled in yoga, has applied
its principles to dentistry
and comes up with pain
less extraction SO simple
that he can perform on
two patients at once tsee

DR.. Jayade uses no anes-
theticS. He has the pa
tientS sit on low benches,
and he stands behind them,
maSSaging certain nerve
centers in the back of the
neck. When they are lulled
into an analgesic stage, the
pliers flash through the air
and the operation is over
in 30 seconds.
Not only has the doctor
operated on some $4,000
believers, but he has had
his own teeth extracted
before dental conventions
to demonstrate the effec-
tiveneSs of his method.
His clinic is in Bangalore.

est of the brash and he takes
us on a merry whirl of Dub
lin life. He seems to know
everyone in Dublin and we
spend long hours talking with
him about Ireland, its history
and its outlook. A very inter-
esting guy, this fellow, and he
promises to visit us in Ohio
one of these days.
Only sad note of our trip
so far occurs when we visit
our friend, Tom Morrison. We
find him a very sick man and
changed from the one we
knew last year. However. his
good wife, Elizabeth, and son.
Colin, make us feel at home
even though a pail of sadness
stands over it all.
But back to gayer things
such as our friend, Stanley.
This Irishman is a human dy-
namo and he drives his Chew
rolet like a revenue man try
ing to get away from a moon
sinner. All around Dublin go
we so that we can see as much
as possible in our short stay
here. The places we go and the
people we meet would take
pages so we will end this up
by saying that if all Irish
men are like Stanley, we will
have to make our future visits
with a doctor in tow.
And so endeth our trip to
Dublin. We come away with a
light heart and warm feel
ing for the great hospitality
from the elevator boys to the
Lord Mayor. Surely Irish hos
pitality is as warm and gem
erous as the Irish coffee they
serve so copiously. So long
Dublin and it is our sincere
hope to return here one day
to live it up for a longer per-
iod. Slainthe, Paddy, old top!
And we'll be seeing you again
someday!
