IMPROVED COMPOUND CHLORINE

TNHE discovery of the Chloride Of Soda and
n its uses, by Labarraque, Of Paris was an
addition to the resources of medicine Of the ut
most importance as neutraliZng agent
To counterfeit at once the principle of decay
which commencing imperceptibly, slowly ga
theirs strength, and finally destroys, is the i'm
portant service which can be derived from the
use of the Chloride ofSoda, when administered
with skill and care. The diseases of the Teeth
being, in the great majority Of cases, the result
Of neglect and gradual accumulation of the
principle above alluded to, it became obvious
from the earliest experiments, that the Chloride
was the proper remedy and preferable to pow
ders, dentrifices, &C., ofwhatever kind or pre-
tension. BY chemical analysis, it will be
found that the greater proportion of the Chic
rine Compounds so extensively in use, do not
contain particle of the Chloride Of Soda, on
the agency of which their efficacy must neces-
sarily depend.
This article is confidently offered to the eX
animation ofthe public, as possessing in an en-
inent degree the virtue of neutralizing all that
is offensive in the mouth and breath, removing
soreness and sponginess Of the gums destroying
the faint Of tobacco. or any other effiuvia from

be found to justify the various commendatory
