, .BUSINESS NOTICES. American Dental Parlors, CORNER • BOUUCOTT AND 'WILLIS' ' STREETS, In dentistry, America holds the premier position, and any dentist ambitions of doing justice to his profession is under the obligation to his patrons of introducing all the latest and most effective hn- ■ provements in his. art, '■ by which tho United , States have achieved their superiority in this branch of surgery, 1 . Having taken over Mr. '. Sidney Hall'g practice (corner Boulcott -and, Willis' Streets), Mr. do Lautour 'is fitting out • above parlors, and is taking every'precaution for the care and comfort of our patients by sparing no expense in introducing every known modern anil approved 1 appliance. Having extensive alterations in hand, we have to close till. Monday, 23rd insi, on and after which date wo shall be pleased to see patients. ■-. PAINLESS ; FILLING AND CROWNING. Our electric appliances give us' many' ways of remedying' the various causes-of i tooth" sensibility, and' make filling arid crowning .absolutely painless" 99 times in .100. There are exceptions to all rules, but', absence 'of pain is' the 'RULE in ■■■ our oices. , ; t I DENTISTRY IMPROVED. V ; . .. By making our operations painless; we improve our ' dentistry. When patients , are hurt they cannot sit still, and\unintentionally make good work impossible;' for, . a dentist cannot perform ; fine operations , unless his patient is quiet. Our'patients are quiet because they, are not J hurt. •• '"''i " ''■■ '.'■"-"■ '~.

It is because our operators, and not only bur operators, but our mechanics, ;.are' , specialists: each doe 6 one thing and-one-only.' Dentistry'is .a sciehce;i"of distiiiit '•;. branches..- A'man,.may be.ever so'skilful, in, one-;.branch, 'yet utterly incompetent,in? ', ' others..'.' .

Much doing of / % ai-particular'.:. . thing enables, a man'to, do that particular - thing., in little time. 1 , Time is money,- ■ ■ especially in a dental office,.and to'save ■ time is to save money,: Specialisation. does this.
