Old methods of tooth brushing don't save the teeth, as millions of people know. They remove some part of the debris, but often leave the chief tooth destroyer. That is why brushed teeth discolor and decay. Why tartar forms, and pyorrhea starts. And why safety requires a periodic dental cleaning. There forms on teeth a slimy, clinging film. You can feel it with your tongue. It gets into crevices, hardens and stays and resists the tooth brush. The ordinary dentifrice cannot dissolve it. And that is the cause of nearly all tooth troubles. That film absorbs stains and discolors. It hardens into tartar. It holds portions of the food which ferment and form acid. It holds the acid in contact with the teeth-the cause of decay. Dentists call it bacterial plaque, because it breeds millions of germs. And they, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea. That film is the teeth's great enemy. Brushing teeth does little good if the film is not removed. Now a way has been found to combat that film. It is used and endorsed by many modern dentists. And to quickly bring it into general use we are offering a One-Week test. This method-called Pepsodent is a dainty tooth paste. You use it like 'any, dentifrice. But, unlike others, it contains an activated pepsin-the digestant of albumin. The film is albuminous matter. The object of Pepsodent is to dissolve it, then to daily prevent its accumulation. The reason why pepsin was not used before is the fact that it must be activated. The usual agent an acid, harmful to the teeth. So pepsin long seemed forbidden. But science has found a harmless activating method, and Pepsodent employs it. Five governments have already granted patents. After three years of clinical tests, Pepsodent has been accepted by many high authorities. It has proved itself a marvel of efficiency. And it seems to solve this allimportant film problem. Now we are stating the facts to millions, and are urging all to prove them by a home test. Send the coupon for a One-Week tube. Use it like any tooth paste, then watch the results. Note how clean your teeth feel after using. Note the absence of the film. See how they whiten as the fixed film disappears. Those results mean that Pepsodent does what old methods have not done. They mean real tooth protection. After that week you will want those results continued, we believe. Cut out ihe coupon now. (104) Pepsodent One-Week Tube Free 1 THE PEPSODENT CO. : Dept. 123, 1104 S.

THE OPENING OF THE LIBERTY BOND CAMPAIGN There was an element of romance and chivalry about the first In view of the universal and spontaneous enthusiasm with two Liberty Loans. We believed we were subscribing then to which the American people began upon April 6 the camaid the abused and down-trodden on foreign soil. It was a kind paign for the Third Liberty Loan, it is amusing to look back of a crusade. But there is a grim reality about the present loan. to the predictions of a few pessimists last winter that it would We are buying powder and guns to protect our own firesides, be a matter of extreme difficulty to place three billion dollars' and the sooner we realize this the better. The man who feels worth of bonds. Unless all signs fail, the Liberty Loan will be that he cannot subscribe now because he is paying off a mort raised within the four weeks' limit, and not only raised but gage on his house must realize that if he does not buy Liberty largely over-subscribed. Indeed, the reason given generally for Bonds he may have no house at all. Every motive of patriotism, the request of Secretary McAdoo that for the present the exact human justice, and self-protection should impel every citizen to figures as to the amount subscribed should be withheld is that subscribe for as many bonds as he possibly can. the amount is so large that its publication might deter new The Government, with the co-operation of local Liberty Loan subscriptions from those who think there is no need of further Committees all over the country, has much simplified the method effort. As a matter of fact, the campaign has just begun, and of subscribing and paying for bonds. There are four ways in will be continued until May 4, with a constantly increasing which you can subscribe for and pay for your aggregate subscription. The auspicious beginning should not 1. Čash.
