A dentist is often selected because he happens to have an office where it is convenient for you to visit him. Sometimes he is chosen because he belongs to your church, your society or your lodge. Sometimes because he makes alluring offers as to price and says not a word about the quality of his workmanship. You, who do not claim to be a dentist, do not know how skillful he is—you simply know there is a den- tist’s sign over his door. It does not require a great deal of thought to ar- rive at the conclusion that an experienced dentist’s judgment of dentists is better than yours, just as your judgment in your own business is better than a dentist's. We say to you—consult this expert dental office at once. We have been practicing dentistry in Seattle for years. We engage the best dentists money can secure, pay them high salaries and then can demand and receive their best efforts. We will give you the best materials money can buy. We will give you a written guarantee with your work, which protects you from every angle, which means that you are bound to be perfectly satisfied. We will do your work PAINLESSLY. Your work will be done under the strictest sanitary conditions. We invite you to call at once and let our expert dentists give your teeth a thorough examination. They will tell you just what is necessary to put your teeth into perfect condition, and also just what the cost will be. (Incidentally you will find that our prices are the very lowest consistent with the highest grade workmanship.) This explanation and estimate won't cost you a cent, nor put you under any obligation to have work done unless you want it. But for your own sake we urge you not to delay another Boston Dental Company “The Hands That Make It Painless” 1420 Second Avenue (Opposite Bon Marche) | 5 5 PRISONERS |To Demand Wi Wilson _ Open Prisor Doors LOS ANGELES, Sept. 17.—Labor MAKE ESCAPE eis seeking an audience with | President Wilson when he arrives in | Los Angeles will concentrate on a de- “oan af | mand for the release of so-called Overpower Guard; Three Are poiiticar prisoners, including Bugene | V.
