INTENDING to locate permanently in Fayetteville,
hopes to make it the interest of all who need the
services of a Dentist to give him the care of their
Teeth. Having had eight years’ experience, and being
acquainted with the work of the best Dentists North
or South, he pledges himself to give all operations en
trusted to his hands that careful thorough work and
complete tinish, that it cannot be bettered by any Den
tist in the United States.
Persons having teeth that are considered hopeless,
and past redemption, will do well to give him a call
before having them extracted, as thousands of teeth
are sacrificed that the requisite knowledge and skill
would save and make useful.
Please give him a trial, and if he does not reda«m
his pledge will forfeit his w«rk.
