Millions of Smiles
Now show beautiful teeth-this is why
An statements approved BY axtso,itis

Dental science, after painstaking re-
search, has found new ways to combat
film. Able authorities have proved them
by clinical and laboratory tests. Their
efficiency is now beyond all question.
These methods have with millions revo-
lutionized teeth cleaning.
These new factors are combined in a
dentifrice called Pepsodent ideal
tooth paste which complies with all the
new requirements. Leading dentists
everywhere advise it. To prove it quickly
to all careful people, q ten-day tube is
being sent to everyone who asks.
Five quick effects
Pepsodent brings FIVE desired effects
with every application. Some are at once
apparent, and all soon show their benefits
to teeth.
One ingredient is pepsin. Another null
tiplies the starch digestant in the saliva
to digest starch deposits that cling. An
other instant result is multiplied aka
Unity of the saliva to neutralize mouth
acids.
Two factors directly attack the film.
One of them keeps teeth 80 highly pol
ished that film cannot easily adhere.
Thus with every application Pepsodent
combats the teeth's great enemies in new
and efficient ways. Both in Europe and
America it is fast bringing new era in
teeth cleaning.

what is taking place In Czecho-S lo-

money-more than 5000. 900 900
crowns, worth In the old days about
20 cents each. but whose present value
Is around one cent. Czecho- Slovakia
realizes that its money must have more
value. So in the recent reorganiza-
ton of its financial system all OF the
old money was called In and new
money issued
But the volume of new money Is IS
Ser cent less than the old, and the
state cannot Increase this except by
providing adequate security (gold sill
yer. bonds, commercial paper, ware
house receipts. etc.) upon which to
base the issue. Further. plans have
been made to withdraw from circula-
ton another 1,500,000000 crowns.

The RAILROADS used to get about
$52,000,000 annually for carrying the
mails. Now they get $47,000,00O for
double the work that they formerly did.
The United States government has
been in control of the railroads for

years all classes of rates have been
increased except those for carrying

REASONS WHY.


1t will be neither a shock nor n. sur-
prise to the practical ship operator to
near that the government cannot com
pete with other passenger vessels. And
the reason Is not, as was suggested
that Uncle Sans vessels cannot. like
others, sell liquor on the high seas.
Bars or no bars, for soft drinks or hard
drinks, there are economic conditions.
pontlcai evils and fool laws which scut-
tie the efficiency of American bottoms
as against foreign bottoms and of gov
eminent owned and operated bottoms
as against privately owned and oper-
atea bottoms. In our merchant ma
rine wages are higher than in any
other merchant marine. Costs of feed.
ing the crews are higher. Costs of
general maintenance are higher. But.

Secretary Daniels hasty retreat be-
fore the onslaught of Vice Admiral
Sims seems to indicate that the adj
miral is one of those thrice armed gen.
tlemen whose quarrel is just.
Nothing is more demoralizing in any
organization than favoritism. To know
that recognition Is dependent on per-
sonal good will rather than merit is de-
structive of morale. Such an incident
as the award by the secretary Of the
highest naval honor to his brother-in-
law who had been recommended for a
lesser distinction by the official board
is blow to effective service.
1t is humiliating that the head of
great government department should
stand convicted in the eyes of the
country of favoritism In the bestowing
of official recognition for distinguished
service In the war.
