Here Are the Improvements


Albodon contains the highest
percentage of actual cleansing
and polishing properties Of any
dentifrice on the market, so it
is certain to clean best.
II is sufficiently but safely an
tiseptic without containing a
dangerous chemical.
1t is absolutely free from grit.
It has no ccloring matter.
1t is more economical than any
other dentifrice because less Of
it is required for each cleansing.
1t has a delightful smack
a likable taste that leaves the
mouth cool and refreshed
and
it is perhaps the only cream or
paste which positively will not
harden under any climatic con
ditions whatever with the cap
on or off.
Albodon is in every respect
especially ideal for children.
