As un impression has bewrmade'that my prides lor dehtal opera tions are higher than the usual run of Drn- tists, I beg leave to say that they are the same aa charged by Dentists at Apgnsta, Macon and Savatinan. For Artificial Work mychar- ges are as follows: Entire Sots TJpper and Lower from $100 to $251. Half Sets, Upper or Lower, from 50 to ISO Temporary Sols, Upper and Lower, 25 each Partial Sots in proportion to the above. As I am well posted in all the late improve monts of tho day, I feel confident that I can meet the wants of ail who may need the ser vices of a Dentist, and if references are want ed; as to t'aeir utility in answering the purpo. ses of nature, I can glve them.ln abuudnnco, from those wito : hava tasted my skill, for the last fourteen years, in this, and adioining States.
