" IT IS THE EYE THAT BUYS What happens after you clean your teeth Sightseers Are Heading EVERY day—probably | twice a day—perhaps l even oftener, you clean | your teeth. And then, with a sense of duty done, you dismiss all thought of your teeth. Now, if all you care about is the appearance of your teeth, that may do. But if you want sound teeth and healthy gums, you must consider this point: The most important reason for cleaning your teeth Word of the exceptional safety and convenience of our modern vault has traveled far and near. Visitors in Washington—we find— are making the Federal-American National Bank a sightseeing itinerary point of call. Let this remind you who are resi- dents of Washington that we invite you, too, to call, if only to view ad- ‘miringly the wonders of protection modern engineering skill has devised for the safekeeping of valuables.

FEDERAL-AMERICAN NATIONAL BANK Where G Street Crosses Fourteenth is to neutralize the dangerous acids in your mouth that cause decay and gum infections. These acids form in pits on the grinding surfaces of your teeth and at The Danger Line, the crevices where teeth and gums meet. No tooth-brush can reach all these pits and crevices. It follows, that unless your denti- frice neutralizes these acids they continue to attack your teeth and gums regardless of your brushing. That is why millions of people are turning to Squibb’s Dental Cream, made with more than 50 per cent of Squibb’s Milk of Magnesia. Milk of Magnesia positively prevents acids from harming the teeth or gums. When you brush your teeth with Squibb’s Dental Cream, tiny particles of Squibb’s Milk of Magnesia get into all these remote pits and crevices, thoroughly neutralizing mouth acids and protecting the teeth and gums. Use it regularly and be safe- guarded. Squibb’s Dental Cream is on sale at all druggists—only 40 cents for a large tube. Admits Obtaining Contracts.
