 The Evidence Chest is deposited with the Title Guarantee & Trust Go. of New York City, where its contents may be examined by accredited committees on application to Colgate & Co.
 This preference shown by dentists for Colgate's is, undoubtedly, based on the fact that the mouths of nine people out of ten need standdrd dentifrice.
