Baseball Stars
Know the
Necessity ot
Having
Good Teeth
Nothing: in tho human body rf fleets its condition more thsn the
human tooth. Decayed, unkept teeth have almost immediate effect
on the "thinking" ability of an individual.
The keen, sharp, brainy man, whether he be on the baseball dia
mond or in the business office, is the man who is free from teeth
trouble. Ask any of the Western League stars what their opinions
are about well-kept teeth.
If you are having trouble, we invite you to come in, bve a thor
ough examination and we will tell you exactly what you need and
what tho cost will be. This service is free and without any
obligation upon your part.
