Observe that they have a thin yellow tinge. No matter how often you brush it remains. You come to believe that yellowish hue is in the enamel—irremovable! But the truth is you have teeth white as glistening ivory. That ugly, yellow- ish hue hides in a glassy mask that en- | velopes the teeth. This mask is known as Calculus. A “liquid cement”in your saliva forms it. Acts like a glue—first sticky, then hard. Ordinary dentifrices cannot efface it—theygloss right over it. But now dental science can give you those lovely, pearly teeth—often in one brushing! For it has finally succeeded in incorporating in a tasty, pleasant tooth paste the one substance that positively removes @alculus—*“Tri-Calcium Phos- pbate”. This magic substance is what your dentist uses to clean teeth. And you know whatbeauty miracles heworks with it! The name of this new and finer teoth paste is ORPHOS.
