Check Receding Gums A Remarkable Healing Agent and = Perfect Deatifrice in Ome Tube. Too little care is taken of the teeth. A great majority of adults are more or sess afilicted with soft gums. The trouble starts years before we notice it. We do not pay enough atten- tion to soft, spongy gums and to the starting of cavities and the accumula- tion of tartar. We should have our teeth examined wnd cleaned every six months. We should thoroughly cleanse our mouths wnd teeth aifter each meal, before preakfast and before retiring. These facts suggested to Dr. R. J. Forhan of New York the idea of ex- erimenting_ for an ideal home cura- ive agent. He succeeded. His product, called DR.
