URVEYS among men show a remarkable pref- S erence for Listetine Tooth Paste, made by the makers of Listetine. Maybe you've noticed it yourself.

It is partly due also to a liking for the swift, thorough, business-like way it cleans the teeth, and gives them new brilliance and luster. Erases tobacco stains . The main reason for this preference, however, is the amazing ability of Listerine Tooth Paste to rid teeth quickly of unsightly stains and discolorations caused by tobacco smoke. Its ability, moreover, to make the breath sweeter and cleaner. If you have not tried Listerine Tooth Paste, do so now.
