not complied with the state laws, will be gratifying to all law abiding dentists. Louisville, Ky., March 5, 1915.

Dr. J. H. Baldwin, Sec'y.

Louisville, Ky.

Dear Dr. Baldwin: We are just in receipt of a letter from the Collector of Internal Revenue advising us that, as suggested in our letter, the Commissioner of Internal Revenue has ruled that the terms, "legitimate practise of his profession," as used in the Harrison Anti-Narcotic Law, require that a physician, dentist or veterinary surgeon, in order to register under the provisions of this law, must have complied with all of the laws of the state in which such physician, dentist or veterinary surgeon resides. Yours very truly,

Signed: ARTHUR H. MANN,

Counsel.

State boards should be able to render aid to the Collector of Internal Revenue by opening to him the records of dentists who are law abiding.

QUACK DENTISTRY TEACHERS FINED BY JUDGE PRINDIVILLE.

State and City Dental Authorities Trap Cassius M. Carr and John J. Kitteringham.

Two more quacks-advertisers, this time, of a "sure cure for pyorrhea"were put out of business in Chicago yesterday. They are Cassius M. Carr of 527 East Thirty-fourth street and John J. Kitteringham Jr., of 531 East Thirtyfourth street. Carr and Kitteringham have been conducting the "College of New Dentistry" in room 900 at 30 North Dearborn street. Their principal stock in trade has been an offer to teach dentists their "positive cure" for pyorrhea, the most baffling complaint known to dentistry, on payment of $350.

A set of 150 dental instruments was included in the bargain, and the school until recently did a thriving business.

Two months ago the school was brought to the attention of Dr. Charles F. O'Connor, president of the Illinois state board of dental examiners, and Dr. George N. West, chairman of the committee on laws and infractions of the Chicago Dental society. Drs. O'Connor and West made an investigation and turned the case over to Assistant State's Attorney Henry Eckhardt.

Four lawyers and a score of witnesses appeared for Carr and Kitteringham in Judge Prindiville's court, but the two were found guilty of practising dentistry in Illinois without a state license and each was fined $50 and costs.-The Chicago Daily Tribune, April 22, 1915.

One of the best known dentists in Chicago, in commenting on this case, says, "This man has a license in Utah, given while it was a territory, without examination, without college education, just by affidavit, and I would not believe him under oath myself. He goes from one state to another, giving this course of instruction, and it is plainly in violation of law."

When will the dental profession, rise up in its righteous indignation, against this form of quackery and see that all cases are summarily dealt with? Now is the opportune time. Many of our states need a Drs. O'Connell or West, to prosecute these quacks in the dental profession.

Such quackery often, by its cunning advertising schemes, etc., deceive the very elect. Let's stamp it out. Is your state prosecuting these quacks? CONNECTICUT'S DELEGATES AND ALTERNATES TO N. D. A. FOR 1915.

THE JOURNAL'S ADVERTISING

PAGES.

Most up-to-date business men know that the successful marketing of a highgrade product depends largely upon a proper degree of intelligent advertising, and intelligent advertising, from a dental standpoint, at once suggests The Journal of the National Dental Association, for it contains the most scientific reading matter, with a quantity of circulation greater than that of any other dental magazine published in the world, intimate introducing by its plan of subscription into the offices of practically every successful dentist in the United States. Dentists who want the best and have the wherewithal to pay for it, have a sustained interest in the success of The Journal. He who helps, financially, to promote the interest of our own pub lication, will receive the good will and financial reward of the great dental profession.

Only the highest type of advertising is accepted; therefore an "ad" in The Journal is a recommendation for the goods advertised. Every dollar derived from advertising is expended in improving The Journal. Rate Card, etc., upon application.

Every dentist should remember that to "Mention The Journal identifies you."
