A remarkable story, revealing how at least one German goldsmith knew the art of making gold teeth over thres hundred years ago, is told by the "Munich Medicinal. Weekly."

In 1698, when a boy of eight, Chris- topher Muller, the son of a peasant, was cbserved to have a tooth of gold. Great Interest in the discovery was ex- cited in medical circles, and a professor of medicine at Helmstedt University, Dr. Horst, closely Investigated the phenomenon. Ho came to the conclu- sion that the tooth was a natural (or supernatural) grown tooth of gold and wrote, in Latin, which was after- wards translated into German, a 156 page thesis on the discovery."

It was widely thought that the golden tooth was a sign from God that He was
