Every body says the last place on Earth they want to go to is to a dentist's office, Now while this may be true in general, we have heard it said and we belive it true, that it is possible to derive pleasure from such a source. There is in the Henneu Building, (5th floor) an office recently fitted up in splendid style and presided over by as gentle and courteous a gentle- man as one would care to meet, Dr. A. G. Bowman. Dr. Bowman is a skilled Dentist and if you once try him, you will be satisfied. — i— «
