Special Dispateh to The Star. FREDERICKY Md.. April 5—Dur- ing the absence of the family, fire of unknown origin destroyed the resi- dence and garage of Page Webber, Brunswick, together with all house- hold furniture and an automoblle. The loss will be several thousand dol- lars, - fans are eagerly “play ball.” WHY should you, who possess good teeth, use Kolynos? Kolynos not only cleans the teeth but gives them a sanitary environment. It cleans scien- tifically, without scraping, and gives the enamel the pearly lustre so greatly desired. Its use is the best insurance good teeth can have. WHY should you, with impaired teeth, use Kolynos? ] The dentist furnishes the best answer. Follow his advice. Kolynos serves to perpetuate his good work. WHY should a child’s first dentitrice be Kolynos? If the mouth, gums and teeth are kept in a sanitary condition from earliest childhood, their health in after life is insured. WHY should those of middle and advanced age use Kolynos? It serves to correct unhealthy mouth . and tooth conditions often ap- pearing in later life. It curbs the deposit of tartar and aids in the prevention of pyorrhea. For these reasons it is extensively prescribed by leading dentists and physicians. WHY is it essential to use Kolynos to remove from the mouth, millions of disease-bearing bacteria? Pernicious bacteria never cease their at- tack; and the use of Kolynos is a scientific method of insuring the hygienic condition of the mouth. It checks, by a pleasant daily habit, the causes of tooth decay. WHY do millions say “How clean my mouth feels” after every use of Kolynos? Kolynos not only makes teeth white and wustrous, but also eliminates bad taste, cools and refreshes the mouth, allays inflammation, tones p the gums and brings them to a healthy pink.
