Thw Is owing to ©or STEIOTLY ADHEKING te that which we advertise, »nd to prove the conndenoe we have in our n«w aysteai of Hochanic&l Dentistry, we »re not »kme willing, but anxious to re-make any wrtifieiti denture (mad* by us) that is not giving perfect COMFORT and SATISFACTION FRBB of CHARGE. Considering that we have made over 1,300 artificial dentures, the above shows the confidence we have in our work, and the meaning of GUARANTEEING SUCCESS, which we always haw done asd intend to do. We are often uskei. "how ft to our practice has increased so much." FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS,': Firstly. Doing highest class work. Secondly. Using only the best material. Thirdly. Imitating nature as closely as possible in our work. Fourthly. Making our dentures bo that they are comfortable. Fifthly. Making a temporary set or part set without extra charge, so that the patient is not without teeth during the time the gums ars altering, alter the extraction of the natural ones, which delay causes the chin to protrude and alter the whole contour of the face. Sixthly. Charging strictly monderate fees. Seventhly. Acting strictly according to that which we advertise. Eighthly. Arranging with these who cannot afford to pay the whole at once, to take part or monthly payments. Lastly. Calling the attention of every thinking person (even those most wealthy) to the fact that the ACTUAL COST of an artificial denture is very slight ; it is the WORKMANSHIP that is the principal expense, and as wo faithfully GUARANTEE that our WORKMANSHIP cannot be surpassed in the Colony, there is no use to throw away money by paying high price for a possibly inferior article.

X.— The amount of piessure on the wheels of a roller skate is no more when a person is stationary than when he is going at full speed. T. E. ll.— Mrs John W. Mackay'B London address is Buckingham G~te. R. T., Kingston. — You could not stop your own tooth. It t..kes a skilful dentist with' the best modern appliance to do so satisfactorily. The filling in Is only portion of the operation. The first consideration is to kill the nerve, which is done by cutting it. This done and the incision allowed to heal, every portion of the tooth showing the slightest Bign of decay is removed by instruments specially made for the purpose. This necessitates two or three visits to the dentist, at intervals of a few days, and on the last visit the operation is completed by the stopping 'material being inserted. Y. V.— (l) The following is tho new scale, of patent charges for great Britain :— Application, £1 ; filing specifications, £'3 ; certiiir ate of renewal on expiry of four years, £50 ; do eight years, £100. Or, in lieu of the latter, two payments, £10 each year for the fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh yours ; £15 each for the eighth and ninth years ; and £20 each for the tenth, eleventh, twelfth, and thirteenth years.

M'Donald, Whare Fl.t, writes : Seeing an inquiry re lungworm in strep from " Settler," Winton, I tag leave to write for his information that a Mr Larney, of Auckland, has patented a perfect cure for lungworm. It is composed of herbs, and is safe even for children. I shall be glad to give further particulars of the invention on application. Education Act, Puerua.— (l) There is nothing in the Education Act prohibiting a chairman or member of a school committee fzom receiv ing money for work done. The Education Board has, however, on several occ.sions expressed the opinion that is is highly undesirable that any member of a committee should receive any of the school funds. (2) The following is the Eduation Board's rule on this matter: "Teachers are not absolutely prohibited from acting as clerk or treasurer to school committees, but the board thinks it highly undesirable that they should do so except in cases of real necessity—that is to say, only in districts where .no other suitable person can be found to act in this capacity. (3) Sewing teachers are supposed to teach three hours a week at least. Bucephalus. — As your guarantee iB simply to protect you from any fault of the hone, we should say that the owner of the entire could recover. Under such circumstances, however, no doubt an arrangement would be come to by each party making concessions. We shall make further inquiries with a view to giving you a more definite reply next week. Scotty.— (l) "Rothesay Bay." price 2s 2dbypoit, at Sligo's, George street.

H., Wangaloa," writes: In the Otago Witness of May 11th, "Centurj "asks whether there is any record of 100 bushels of wheat being harvested from an acre of land in New Zealand. I can answer the question in the affirmative. About eight years ago Mr D. Mitchell harvested from three acres of land in this -district 300 bushels of wheat. This I can prove if necessary.
