On Your Teeth Now There is now on your teeth a slimy film. You can feel it with your tongue. It clings to teeth, gets between the teeth and stays. The tooth brush alone doesn’t end it. The ordinary tooth paste does not dis- solve it. So month after month it stays there and may do a ceaseless damage. That film is what discolors — not the teeth. Itis the basis of tartar. It holds food substance which ferments and forms acid. It holds the acid in contact with the teeth to cause decay. Millions of germs breed in it. They, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyor- Most tooth troubles are now traced directly to that film. Dental sought a way to end film. They have known that brushing could not save teeth if it left that film upon them. Now that film combatant has been found. authorities, have proved it beyond question.

The film is albu- minous matter. The object of Pepso- dent is to dissolve it, then to constantly combat it. Pepsin long seemed impossible. It must be activated, and the usual agent is an acid harmful to the teeth. But science has discovered a harmless acti- vating method. Now activated pepsin can be applied, night and morning, to combat that film. Leading dentists everywhere are now advising Pepsodent. Countless people have already adopted it. And trial tubes are offered everywhere to show others what it does. Send the coupon for a 10-Day Tube. Note how clean the teeth feel after using. Mark the absence of the slimy film.
