These contained money amounting to 128,642, and drafts, checks and notes amounting to (1,471,871. . large proportion of these letters were misdirected or only partially addressed, and many of them were not addressed at all. Of these six million mistakes doubluss nearly all were due to careless ness or exouseless ignoranoe. The ad' dress on multitudes of letters cannot be deciphered. For this blunder there is seldom the shadow of an exouse. illegible writing were confined to those who have never enjoyed educational ad vantages, the case would not be so bad, But many fine scholars offend grievous ly in this particular.

Would you cauHe your child to be disfigured or crippled for life ? No, of course, you would not, if you could prevent it. Still how many of you allow an incompetent and unthinking dentist to extract a temporary or milk tooth for your little one Just because it has ached. Parents, put the mouths of your little ones under the charge of a CoieH Dentist, who will fill the teeth and stop the pain until the proper time for extraction arrives. How many persons are disfigured for life because the teeth were neglected while young ? Look around at the mouths of your acquaint ances. If your children's teeth trouble them or need attention, BRING THEM TO US and we will show them and you that the den tists' oflice is not necessarily a torture room, but is rather an asylum of relief and comfort.
