Me NEW EDISON
"1he PbOnOgrabh EOith a Soul"

You've read how the New Edison has proved
its perfect realism. Four thousand tests have
been given, in which more than so different
artists compared their art with its RE-
CREATION by the New Edison. Leading
newspapers conceded that there was no diff
ference between the two.
Has any one suggested to you that these
comparison tests are g faxed - that the
artist initiates the New Edison
Signor Friscoe'S performance makes such an
assertion positively ridiculous Every week,
10000 people see his hammers ripple over
the xylophone keys. Suddenly he holds them
aloft-still.
The ripping music continues.
Slowly, the gorgeous curtains of the back
drop part. The audience gasps. The New
Edison stands revealed. 1t has taken m
Signor Friscoe's performance, and is now
RE-CREATING it alone. The effect of this
extraordinary magic can rest upon only one
fact: No one can distinguish any difference
between Signor Friscoe's performance and
its RE-CREAToN by the New Edison. Signor
Friscoe could not possibly initiate the New

MOUTH RESPONSIBILITY

The human body is such a compli-
Gated affair that it seems rather alb
sured to place a sweeping response
bility ON any one organ.
Where the dentist makes the claim
that unsanitary mouth conditions have
more to do with physical degeneration
in human kind than any other diseased
organ, he has the backing Of exact
science.
His claims that the defective teeth
cause a large percentage of our ills
have been proven thru scientific inves-
tigatiOn as well as by practical ex
periments.
The care Of the teeth from infancy
onward thru life brings greater re-
wards than like care of any other one
organ, for the mouth is the only por-
tion Of our internal organs that we
have any control over. After anything
has passed the mouth all we can do is
to wait for the explosion
Aside from health people should take
care of their teeth. What is more
offensive than bad breath. and what
adds more to the personal appearance
than a beautiful set of teeth
No matter how many brains a man
may have. or how beautiful woman
may be, they cannot fail to cause
feeling of repulsion in their associates
every time they open their mouths dis
closing an upkept set of teeth. If some
women would pay as much attention
to their teeth as in painting their
faces. they would injoy better health.
and be more attractive personally.
The mouth is the greatest port of
entry for most of the germs that en-
ter the human body. Where the teeth
are defective and unkept it affords an
environment which promotes rapid
multiplication for disease producing
bacteria
The disease-resisting quality of the
mucous members is great, yet at times
it becomes infected, the infection I
spreads to the bones. and finally the |
life is sacrificed just because the indi- 4
vidual was too careless or Indifferent 4
to practice simple cleanliness. In pus-
producing germs are constantly null
tiplying around the teeth absorbed
into the blood and lymph streams and
carried into the stomach and intes-
tines, causing stomach and intestinal
disorders and constipation.
POisOns are produced and absorbed
from the mouth carried to remote parts
Of the body to set up secondary infec-
tiOns. Often the vital organs are at
tackled, producing what are known as
"Chronic diseases" such as Bright's
disease. diabites, tuberculosis, etc.
The formation of pus in the mouth
IS of little moment, and is neglected
ly both patient and most physicians.
An infected appendix or even an in
iected finger bring a hurry call for the
physician and immediate attention.
Long life, happiness and prosperity
depends upon a clean, healthy mouth
md sound. healthy teeth.
The mouth is responsible for much
II health and you are responsible for

Get the habit of keeping it clean.
We are creatures of habit and habits
