Y ALL TE ‘S and comparisons it could be put to by competent judges—dentists, physicians, bacteriologists, chemists, sophisticated laymen—, the opinion they all agree on is that ALBODON is from every standpoint the best article for the teeth now obtainable. It is new in many particulars of manufacture and has important and desirable qualities possessed by no other dentifrice to the same degree. (The formula was published for the information of dentists and druggists in publications devoted to their respective professions.) Therapeutic Features The primary purpose of a dentifrice is to clean and polish the teeth. AILBODON contains the highest percentage of actual cleansing and polishing ingre- dients af any dentifrice on the market. So the name, which is from the Latin, meaning liber- ally, white or clean teeth, is not altogether fanciful, ALBODON stands high in antiseptic efficiency, as was prov- en by tests on bacteria and saliva made by three esteemed and disinterested chemists, whose reports we are glad to send. It is, however, an antiseptic, not a germicide. It does not contain peroxide, carbolic acid or chlor- ate of potash. /f is sufficiently but safely antiseptic. Mechanical Features ALBODON isa CREAM, not a paste. I? will not separate, discolor melt orhardenundervarying atmospheric or climaticchanges. Hence a key like a sardine-can opener does not accompany a package of ALBODON, In hot or cold weather, with the cap on or off, its consistency is unchanged. It is always smooth and velvety and without a trace of grit. Aesthetic Features ALBODON is cream-white and contains no coloring matter, Tt has a distinctive *‘smack’’—a likable taste that leaves the mouth cool and refreshed. Safest and Best for Children ‘Toencourage children to use a dentifrice regularly one must be given them that presses easily from the tube, that has a likable taste, that contains no dangerous chemicals, that looks inviting because not artificially colored. These features, embodied in ALBODON, recommend it es- pecially to the use of children, An Aid to the Dentist ALBODON is not a substitute for the dentist, but an aid to his personal instrumental work. See your dentist at regular intervals, and use ALBODON twice daily, and you will be amazed to see how little serious dental ‘work’? your teeth will require in the future. ALBODON is a better preparation, in a liberal tube, at no increase in price. It is more economical than othere dentifrices because less of it is required for each cleansing. Buy Albodon—You Will Not Be Disappointed Price 25 cents at all drug stores and wherever toilet articles are sold Free Samples For Skeptics Our best advertisement is the free sample. We are glad to send it to any- one looking for a dentifrice better than the one now being used, If you are skeptical and do not want to risk 25 cents for a regular-size tube of AL- BODON, let us send you a free sample.
