IN DENTISTRY The Toothache Man.
Reading edition
(The fellow who loves your tooth to jerk And then with a smile, asks: “Did it hurt?”) Yearly to him folks ought to go To learn of holes they do not know; So toughest steaks to finely grind With nature’s teeth and not false kind. —Harrison.
Among the five hundred or more Colored dentists in America, who are today practicing in offices furnished with their own surgical instruments as well as gas, electrical and other modern appliances, Drs. Chas. E. Bentley, Chicago, Ill., and Chas. H. Roberts, New York City, according to competent judges are considered two of the most prominent and best all-round authorities in their profession. And in nearly every other large city there are similar expert and successful dentists, a list of whom the writer was unable to get.
