For tbe benefit of those who could

adopted after the lawmakers got
thru putting In or knocking off

may be of service:
The Wiley act makes provisions
for tbe handling of liquor In Michi
gan for tbe five purposes exempted
by tbe oonetltution—medicinal, aa©
./amenta!, mechanical, scientific and
chemical It provides for tbe handling
of liquor by druggists In a way do
signed to prevent drug stores from
becoming hoote centers. Th* drug
gists first must apply for a permit
to handle liquor* for medicinal pur
poses. When he has the permit be
may sell liquor only on the written
prescription of a physician
No prescription may be refilled
and no prescription can call for
more than eight ounces of "boo**.”
Tbe druggist must keep all
lions filled by him. showing tbo
name and address of the person for
whom, they were filled, as wall aa
the date and the doctor who gave
the prescription In this way offl
c als can keep frack of how'much'
liquor a.ny individual procures and
how Uhalrkl'doctors are In the grant
ing of prescriptions.
Tbe druggist i* under stiff reatrio
tlons If be violates the law by
selling or giving away liquor tn any
other way than on a prescription he
will lose his permit to handle any
Uquor at all And If he. ever la

Advertise—for this reasoo
And You Should Understand
There we util! many persons who
prefer to go to a dentist who will not
advertise probably because they
think it is wrong for a profession*!
man to nse publicity.
The people have been taught this
through a generation because of the
fact that when dentistry was first
generally practiced, it was necessary
to avoid prominent publicity because
physicians had never done it and the
dentists of those days desired to have
their profession placed on an equal
basis with that of a physician.
The result has been that dentistry
was instantly recognized as a calling
in almost every way equal to~lhat of
the practice of medicine. As the
science of curing and preventing bod
ily ills progressed, hospitals were
founded throughout the world and the
practice of medicine was given pub
licity that would today cost millions
of dollars, while the dentists had to
“plug along" as best they could.
For the reason that dentistry is
only called upon when a person has
gone beyond the means of some
simple home treatment for the tooth
ache. it ha* progressed more slowly
than median*, and only recently have
Dental Clinics been given proper con
sideration.
To overcome this unfortunate lack
of publicity, many dentists have
boldly advertised their service
through many mediums and have bo-
boats picked .be?j up, many of the
men were on the verge of etarva-
M« n The erewi were quite sub
durd snd glauly sur~ender*Q.

come what are commonly called “ad
vertising dentists.” This has been
the cause of much "knocking" by tha
dentists who do NOT advertise in any
way—but, nevertheless, the public
cannot afford to ignore the dentist
who is so confident in his work—and
so proud of it—that he is willing to
spend a good share of his inoome to
publicly publish his successes and his
ability to perform permanent satis
factory dentistry.
You probably use an advertised
brand of soap in yoar home; you
buy your groceries as a result of ad
vertising; you patronise each mer
chant because you have heard or read
that he can best serve yon; you wear
advertised makes of shoes and cloth
ing; you attend a theater that has
advertised its attractions.
Then why not just as well patron
ize a dentist who is willing for you
to compare his workmanship with all
others ?
Take the Peerless Painleas Den
tists for sample. These popular den
tists are advertising EVFRY DAY I
They have perfected a treatment that
positively remeves every particle of
pain from dentistry in EVERY oper
ation and they do not charge ene
penny extra for Its use Don't you
realty think that this is WORfTH ad
vertising? Would you prefer to suf
fer when you are aw arded the oppor
tunity of AVOIDING it ?
The Peerless Dentists operate ntf
fioes at 69 Woodward, corner of Jef
ferson, open evenings until 9 o'clock.
Surely you can at least afford enough
of voor time to Investigate this bow
really painless dentistry.
