IMPORTANT DISCOVERY RELATIVE
q TO THE TEETH-Dr. H. |. Bowditch and
other scientific gentlemen of Boston, have, by the use
d powerful Microscope, discovered that the
TEETH of every individual are surrounded by nume-
animal and vegetable Parasites. These conclu-
sons are based upon examination OF matter deposit
ted upon the teeth and gums OF more than forty ind
viduals selected from all classes of society, and ia
every variety OF bodily condition, and found
free from them, except two or three who had been in
the habit OF using SOAP dentifrice. Experiments
tried upon them with all the popular detegens,
sach Orris, Charcoal, puv. Bark, Tooth Wash, So
da &C. &c, which did not impair their vitality in the
least. The application OF Soap however, destroyed
them instantly. We may thence inler, that Soap is
the best and most proper SPECIFIC Tor cleansing the
Teeth.
In view of the above important discovery, and with
the encouragement and patronage oil most OF len
tfic men, have been experimenting for a long time,
| succeeded SOaD.
OF the most important articles used in Dentirice,
TO entirely destroy the taste OF Soap while it renders it
still more efectual 10 cleansing the Teeth. The high
est premium awarded to this article at the late
1alr Of the American Institute, New York, October,
1850.
It's prepared in the most clearly manner possible
from the choisest materials and free from all impuri
ties which generally used in Soap made for other
purposes. The Soap Denhce is the only proper spe-
chic for freeing the mouth from those disgusting impu
rites which rapidly promote putrfacton and destroy the
Teeth.
For the purpose of keeping the Soap clean, every
cake nclosed IN neat case, at the low price OF 25
cents cheapest article before the public. One cake will
last at least one year.
The public are cautioned against a counterfeit ar
tlcle, made by some unprlnciped person. Each cake

10 future be accompanied with the drawings representing
the Parasites as they appeared under the Microscope

Mr.. WATERS Il have submitted the Soap Uenti-
fnce, prepared by you, a chemical examination, and
find remarkably free from impurities and we'll adap-
Ted for the purpose intended, Such article has long
been desideratum; the ordinary Soaps genera lly
contain mineral coorng Ingredients, and such other
impurities render them unfit for cleansing the teeth

New YORK, December s, 1880
Ihave made Chemical examination of "Dr. Wa
ters Tooth Soap" and find contain the proper in
gradients OF pure Soap, together with some pleasant Ar
omatc Vegetable substances. There is nothing in it
that will njure the Teeth in the least degree; but on
the contrary, would tend to prevent the formation
OF Tartar upon them.
