No man does his best work I'M
less he likes his job. And no man
can do good work without plenty
of recreation. 1t is upon these
two principles that Marine Corps
training is based.
The Marine must be something
of sailor and everything of a SOL
dier. So he is always learning
something new and intensely in
teresting. In addition to taking
on quite a bit of seamanship, he
learns to hike like an infantryman.
ride like a cavalryman and handle
guns like an artilleryman. He
knows something of wireless
telegraphy and mechanics.
In fact, when he comes out OF
the Marine Corps there are all
sorts of big-paying civilian jobs
that are waiting for a man who
can do SO many different kinds of
things and do them well.
To keep a man Mt there is moth
ing like athletic sports, and all
Marines are encouraged to go in
for boxing. football, baseball and
swimming. Competent coaches and
trainers are provided and every IA
cility for a man to indulge in the
form of sport that most appeals to
him.
Good Fellowship of the Corps
A life of travel. adventure and
outdoor work would naturally at
tract the man who has the max
ings of a good fellow" in him.
And nowhere do you find more
good fellows" than in the Marine
Corps. If ever you have seen a
bunch of Marines in their off
hours in barracks, or out for
time in any of our large cities, or
sightseeing in foreign ports. there
is no need TO tell you anything
about that side of a Marines EXIT

And as for his chances of seeing
the world-there is hardly 4 coun-
try on earth where Marines are
not stationed at present They are

are in London, Paris and in China
No big warship sets sail for for

OF Marines aboard.
Any healthy young man who
would like to learn a veII-paying

How film dirns teeth

A viscous film clings to your teeth. enters
crevices and stays. You can feel it with your
tongue. Then it forms cloudy coat and may
lead to endless damage.
1t is the flrn-coat that discolors, not the
teeth. Film is the basis of tartar. It holds
food substance which ferrnents and forms
acid. 1t holds the acid in contact with the
teeth to cause decay.
Millions of germs breed in it. They, with
tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea.
Very few people, under old methods, have
escaped these troubles. The ordinary tooth
paste does not dissolve film, so the tooth
brush failed to end it. Dental science has for
years been seeking way to combat it.
Five years ago the way was found, and
dental authorities have amply proved its eff
cheney. Now it is urged for daily use, and
millions already employ it. It is embodied

Teeth quickly show

There are three ways in which Pepsodent
brings results unique and beneficial but its
action on film is the chief one.
Pepsodent is based on pepsin, the digestant
of albumin. The film is alburninous matter.
The object of Pepsodent is to dissolve it, then
to day by day combat it.
Pepsin must be activated, and the usual
agent is an acid harmful to the teeth So this
method long seemed barred. But science has
found harmless activating method, and now
active pepsin can be daily applied.
You see the results of Pepsodent wher-
ever you look today teeth winter cleaner,
safer. Now see the results on your own teeth.
Send the coupon for To-Day Tube. Note
how clean the teeth feel after using. Mark
the absence of the viscous film. See how
teeth whiten as the hln1-coat disappears.
Compare your teeth now with your teeth in
ten days, then decide for yourself what is
best for them. Cut out the coupon to avoid
further delay. This test is most important.
