A pleasing face and generally prepossessing appearance are impor- tant assets to every individual. They facilitate ac- quaintance, desirable introductions, and the mak- ing of valuable friendships in addition to impart- ing to the possessor a feeling of self satisfaction not otherwise to be obtained. A pleasing appear- ance marks the first steps on the road to success. These desirable qualifications are impossible if one has a drawn, haggard, aged appearance be- ise of sagging, sunken cheeks, due to missing or q imperfect teeth. Nature fills all cavities. Hence, if 1 you have missing teeth, the cheeks will sag in in an attempt at filling the cavity. And in addition, imperfect mastication causes a species of mal- nutrition which imparts an undesirable color to an already unprepossessing face. All these defects can be quickly and cheaply overcome by a visit the dentist. The sooner the cheaper, the quicker and beiter for all concerned. It will cost you no more than car fare to come to our offices and have Dr. Clark make a personal examination of your teeth and give you an estimate of the cost.of put- satisfaction and improved health and efficiency that comes with DR.
