'Phone,Carne by Accident.
This Is the fiftieth anniversary of
the year in which the telephone Was
patented by Dr. Alexander Graham
Bell, the great inventor.
Butit Is pretty certain that Bell

stage of his; invention—that exactly
fifty years later telephone subscribers
in London would be able to talk direct
to subscribers in the United States,
says an English writer. .
The feat was accomplished a week
or so ago, and soon it will be an every-

Modern Dentistry.
The practice of dentistry to -day is
quite different from what it wee, a few
decades' ago. Many people can remem-
ber with what fear Gild trembling they
went to the dentist and the joyous
feelings they had when they were told
that their work, for the time ,being,
was completed, Modern methods of
iiain elimination have removed much
of this dread, andaosday It 1s the ex-
ception•al tiling for a patient to suffer
much pain when having dental opera-
tions performed.` "
Similar advancement has been made
in connection with many other branch-
es of the science. X -Ray has revolu-
tionized the accepted practice of the
profession: The discovery that' dental
conditions frequently cause systemic
diseases has led to increased Interest
in the removal of mouth infections
and a greater appreciation of the value
of preventive dentistry. The modern
dentist is earnestly striving to prevent
root end abscess and Pyhoh'rhea by
covering and correcting the conditions
which will lead to these harmful dis-
eases.
The rapid progress made in Dentis-
try has forced the general practitioner
to keep abreast of the times. An en-
liglhteued Public demands a modern
dentist; and the organized profession
has its regular conventions and other
forms of postgraduate study; so that
the family dentist, practisipg in any
part of the Province, May be able to
keep abreast. et the times.
in this Province such opportunity le
given at the Annual Convention of the
Ontario Dental Associatiou, which will
be held at the icing Edward Hotel, -
Toronto, May 17 20, 1026. The most
outstanding authorities on the North
American Continent will give essays,
and clinics, thus placing in the posses-
sio`n of the dentists the modern know-
ledge which h
c t ey need in order to pro-
tect the

Can it be done? Yes! . How?
Simply by recognizing the importance

of one fundamental rule of health—the
