A dentist telling off his black assistant for not extracting a tooth, the assistant retorts that instead of the tooth he got the patients's watch and pocket book. Process print after G.E. Studdy.

Dialogue includes: "If you gave the man gas you had surely plenty of time to pull his tooth out. You'll never make a dentist, young man" the assistant replies: "You've no call to say dat, sah. If I didn't get his tooth I got his watch and pocket book anyhow"
