Do you feel worn out, fagged and "all in" at
the end of your day's work? .
The cause of this physical weakness, in all
probability, is in the condition of your teeth.
Hidden abscesses at the roots of the teeth pouring
a stream of poison pus into'thc blood cause rheu
matism, stomach and kidney troubles, heart and
nerve affections and other fatal ailments.
Come in and have us make a thorough ex
amination of your teeth. We will advise only the
work you should have done and will tell you the
exact cost. .
This preliminary service is free and without
obligation.
