R. Parker System. The old idea that you had to do a lot of waiting, make a lot of visits and go through a lot of professional red tape, is all wrong. That idea is what made old style dentistry so costly and unsat- isfactory. Under the E. R. Parker System your rea are ci wien elay by an experiencé entist, who tells you at once what your oh UE. teeth need and what the price will be for doing it. If you decide to have your teeth cared for, the work can be done immediately. The work then proceeds without a single useless post- ponement, and is completed as soon as good dentistry can possibly be done. . The result is not only a saving of time, but of money as well. And, best of all, you will be satis- fied, for'E. R. Parker System dentists are just as par- ticular as you are. Examinations and advice free. Painless Parker Dentist Using the E. R.
