Novocain, which is indispensable to the success- ful practice of painless dentistry, is a German product, and at the beginning of the war we pur- chased every ounce obtainable, so that today we are the fortunate possessors of an amount which will last until a treaty of peace releases the supply at its source. Because we do a very large dental business it is customary for us to make quantity purchases of all dental supplies and materials, and thereby ef- fect a tremendous saving, of which the patient is necessarily a beneficiary. It is for that reason that we were able to make the “scoop.” These things we tell you merely to point out the advantage of patronizing a concern such as ments, is able to offer first-class ‘ | | LOW PRICE wife had child The number of claima filed and) accepted by the clty and count rda now makes {t probable that to obtain {tw quota of 1,455 men, oneohalf of Seattle's J18 regis tered men will have to be called Examine Reserves Many of the boards, however, have obtained their quotas now and are examining reserve men in or der th they will be to mM the places of many who undoubted ly will be exempted at Camp Lewis} on account of physical defects The mobization. a ng to the latest {nat will extend over a period of five day ning September 5, and si 99 men will leave from Se K ty as the first & per cent of t 6 quota whic h makes the first/ ebration, as was at firet planned, | will be held | A meeting of the : King County c {1 for Patriotic Service wan led to meet early this week uss the matter. lowing fa the nv ) will be mobilized in each di to dinc F wh vision on the first call.
