You know that if you look about. Millions are using a new way of teeth cleaning. They combat the film, which other millions leave. Go now to your dealer and ask for a free test of this new-day method. Most teeth are unclean Most teeth are coated more or less by film. You feel it now—that viscous coat. Leave it, and it soon discolors, forming dingy coats. That is how teeth lose luster. No ordinary tooth paste effectively combats it. So well-brushed teeth may suffer. Film causes most tooth troubles. It holds food sub- stance which ferments and forms acid. It holds the acid in contact with the teeth to cause decay. Germs breed by millions in it. They, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea. A serious matter Film is a serious matter. So dental science has long sought for ways to fight it. Two have been found. One disintegrates the film at all stages of formation. One removes it without harmful scouring. Many careful tests have proved these methods ef- fective, A new-type tooth paste has been created to apply them daily, The name is Pepsodent. Protect the Enamel Pepsodent disintegrates the film, then removes it with an agent far softer than enamel. Never use a film com- batant which contains harsh grit. Pepsadén The New-Day Dentifrice A tooth paste based on modern research. Now advised by leading dentists the world over. CProsecuted ats who were the picture 1 Holdridg Ron Senator Wheeler asked. grivd to give me anowledge,” HoldMAEY wax u friend o i the law Holdridee said Muma, after telling im the whe tory, ghowed him the Dummy tin, got fifty per cent Ty Him profits D ud he iter learned a Martin was Muma's part Trade nark Dainty people of some 50 nations now employ that method, largely by dental advice, This test will show This test will bring you other new effects, equally important. Pepsodent multiplies the alkalinity of the saliva. It multiplies the starch digestant in saliva. So those great factors, there to cqmpn mouth acids and starch deposits, are given multiplied effect. That means great new protection. Present the coupon for a 10-Day Tube. Note how clean the teeth feel after using. Mark the absence of the viscous film. See how teeth become whiter as the film-coats disappear. This test will be a revelation. You will always want in your home these benefits and delights.
