TRUM and interesting story—one that may be read with profit by every Seattle man and woman, and which particularly deals with the advantages and possibilities of the X-ray, appears in the current number of the popular “American Mag zine,” under the caption; “How I Found Health in a Denust's Chair.” The article was written by an outsider, not by a Uist, and therefore stands on its own merits, Space will permit only a portion of the story to be reprinted, but for your DR.

A woman came to my dentist while I was being treated. She suffered from neuralgia. There were no cavities In ber teeth, apparently, and she had been examined by various physicians, none of whom could locate the cause of her trouble. I saw the dentist take an X ray of her teeth on the side of her face where the pain occurred, and watched him develop it. There, as plain as day, lying across the roots of three of her teeth was a fourth tooth that had never come through. It was a bad job removing that tooth, but the woman has had no trouble since. Les Darcy, the Australian prize ring champion, came to this country as a perfect physical specimen. A few months after his arrival he had an at- tack of rheumatism. He was taken to a hospital, examined, and it was found that every tooth in his mouth was decayed. He died two weeks later, They have all tended to form this conclusion in my mind: If © trouble with a railroad, I would start to look FIRST at the terminal and xystem; and if I were ever to suffer from {ll bealth again, I would begin firet to inquire whether. perhaps, the trouble did not originate in my mouth, where all the food and air that gets into my syater ie received. Doctors themselves have come only recently to recognize the importance of the teeth; and to many laymen the claims that are made for the possible effects of bad teeth must seem wildly exaggerated. Who could imagine, for example, a pain in the kn by the extraction of a bad molar? Yet I know just such a case. Indeed. I ain ready now to believe almoat ving proved by my own experience that one may have been faithful to the dentist all his life, and yet find, under the X-ray, conditions sufficient to cause any disease from dyspepsia to house maid's knee.
