But in that bottle lay, so it was believed, the wherewithal to do away with all those twinges of pain that often accompany the filling of teeth. A final inspection of one cavity, a deep affair in the upper jaw, was made. Absorbent cotton was insrted, then withdrawn. Hot air was blown into it through a syringe, the tip of which had been held in a colourless alcohol flamse.
