Have You Seen
the Ivory Smile
Il This Week at
Bowdtch, Webster G Co.'s and B..
Earle Bither's, kinsrnan Pharmacy,
Augusta, and Beane's Drug Store,
Gardiner.

Any number of persons this week
have visited Bowditch, Webster & Co.,
at the Kinsman Pharmacy, Augusta,
and at Beane's, Gardiner, to see the
educational demonstration of Dentyne
Peroxide. few days ago few persons
in Augusta realized that the reason for
their decayed, discolored teeth was not
inattention but lack of proper attention
to their teeth. Thanks to our progress
siveness, our citizens are fast learning
how and why it is the easiest, simplest
and most inexpensive thing in the world
to have clean, white, beautiful lustrous
teeth and a sweet smelling breath. The
answer is Dentyne Peroxide, and we
predict that within very short time
Augusta will be Dentyne Peroxide wise.
This demonstration is as interesting as
it is valuable and necessary to the well
fare of every household. Be sure to see
the water test, and notice how the oXy-
gen rises from the Dentyne Peroxide and
you will understand why Dentyne Pc
roxide Paste or Powder is the only thing
that can properly put and keep your
teeth and breath in proper condition.
Green and yellow teeth made white.
"'Tartar Dentyne,' the new discovery.

in addition TO your dentfrice. Removes
tartar the presence OF which always
indicates the approaching loss of beauti-
FIJI teeth.

statement is that 1920 patients have
been treated there since 1874. IT further
saws that the charitable service of the

of its income and thus the call for help
from the State is made to make UP the
deficit and thereby to avoid curtailing
the. free service.

The Progressives in the Maine
House of Eepresentativ have
taken their stand for separate
and distinct party organization. At
the opening of this session Pro-
gressive members decided to make
a working fusion with the Repub-
lican members, and in pursuance
thereof, we assisted in organizing
the House ON Il Republican basis.
The express agreement of Repub-
lcan leaders was that they would
unite with the ProgressiVes in Sc
curing Progressive legislation
promised in the Bangor platform
After a few days it became evil
dent that Republican leaders in
this State had determined to de-
lay aud hold up several important
features of Progressive legislation.
This attitude is hot satisfactory
to the Progressives and is not well
received by the public.
Accordingly in the remaining
days of the session we shall act
as a separate party and work as
seems best for the enactment of
progressive legislation regardless
of any other party.
Let it be understood that from
this time out there are three par
ties on the floor of the House
