The defunct District Rent Commis sion seeks to guard any similar bodies which may be created from the stermy experiences it underwent itself by a series of recommendations in its final report filed with President Coolidge and made public yesterday.

It takes healthy to keep healthy gums teeth Bleeding gums are Nature's first warning of Pyor- rhea. Then they begin to recede, lose thatrich, pink color. Disease-breeding poisons collect in pus pock- ets and often drain through the entire system. If used in time and used consistently, Forhan's will prevent Pyorrhea, or check its progress—something ordinary tooth pastes are powerless to do. It con- tains just the right proportion of Forhan's Astrin- gent (as used by the dental profession in the treat- ment of Pyorrhea). It is safe, efficient and pleasant tasting. Even if you don't care to discontinue your favorite dentifrice, at least start using Forhan's once a day. Forhan's is more than a tooth paste; it checks Pyor- rhea.
