You can feel on your teeth slimy film. It is ever-present, ever-forming. It elings to teeth, enters crevices and stays.
 The tooth brush doesn't end it. The ordinary dentifrice cannot dissolve it. So it accurnulates and may do a ceaseless damage.
 Most tooth troubles are now traced to that film. And now it is known why brushed teeth still discolor and decay. The reason lies in that clinging film which the old cleaning methods omit.
 Cause of Decay
 That film is what discolors-not the teeth. It is the basis of tartar. It holds food substance which ferments and forms acid. It 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 pyor- rhea. Thus the film is the teeth's chief enemy.

Rich Red Blood: The Secret of Ro-
 bust Healthy Constitution.

Thin. impoverished blood results in pale, sallow compleXions, rundown anacmic conditions, and leaves one without strength, energy or ambition. Lots of people here think that the one great remedy for this condition is Vinol, that non-secret cod liver and iron tonic without oil, which with the beef peptones and glycerophosphates contained in it, acts very quickly in creating thousands of rcd corpuscles in the blood. It quickens the circula- tion. increases the appetite, aids di- gestion, and in this natural manner creates strength, vitality and energy. Hundreds of people in this vicinity have testified to its value.-advt.

 Bryan for Walsh.
 Word of Mir. Bryan's announcement at Helena, Mont. that he would sup port Senator Walsh of that state for permanent chairman of the conven- tion came as surprise to most of the party chiefs here and started speculation as to how far the Ne braskan might go in an effort to overturn the plans of the admins traitor forces. Secretary of State Colby, Senator Robinson or Arkan- sss and Chairman Cummings have been mentioned by administration supporters for the permanent chair manship but it was said today there had been no decision.
 The suggestion that MT. Cummings, who will be temporary chairman be continued as presiding officer was put forward today as a means of shortening the convention proceed ings by dispensing with the formal ities of d second convention organi zation. Mir. Cum mings said, how ever. that he hoped someone else would be given the permanent chair manship.

Liquor Question to Cause Bitter Fight At Convention -Tammany Leaders Ar rive.

san Francisco. June 24.-Prelim- ina ries to the democratic national convention got into tho incvita bIe period of hurry and scramble today with the appearance here of one after another of the men who are to play leading parts in the big quadrennial drama. In the whisperinEs behind the scenes the question of the party's policy toward hone dry prohibition continued tho big theme of agitation with prospects for a fight on the con Vention fioo- growing better and bet tor. Arriving leaders and delegations also added some impetus to the dis cussion of presidential candidates but that subject still remained well in thc background.
 Two Important Arrivals.
 Two figures newly arrived on the scene attracted particular attention. One was Senator Carte" Glass of vir- ginia. fresh from Washington and generally reported 10 have brought Presiden. Wilson's own draft of the platform. The other was Charles F. Murphy. of New York. the leader of Tammany Hall, who came direct from the widely heralded conference of old line party strategists at French Lick, Ind.
 Dry OF Wet"
 Mir Murphy was the new center of speculation on the subject of prohi- bition. The declaration of the New York state convention for repeal of the 18th amendment and widely cir Culated ~eports of the patching Of an anti-bone dry plank at French Lick helped to bolster the impression among delegates that Tammany would lead in the effort to write such n plank into the platform.
 For Liberal Plank.
 ono element which tended to keep the problem influx was the uncertain ty of many of those here regarding the position of President Wilson. The Virginia state platform which has been given the presidents unquali- fled approval and on which the na- tional platform is expected to be modelled, is silent on the subject. some of President Wilson's closest political friends in the administra- tion. however. are known to have prepared a liberalization .plank for which they are ready to make fight in the convention.
 Cummings Voices Opinion.
 Many of the leaders including Ho- mer S. Cum mings. the national chair man. reiterated confidence that no other platform plank would lead to

 Pepsodent is based on pepsin, the di- gestant of albumin The film is albun,i- nous matter. The object of Pepsodent is to dissolve it, then to constantly com bat it.
 The way seems simple, but it is not. Pepsin must be activated. The usual method is an acid harmful to the teeth, so pepsin long seemed impossible.
 What has been found is harmless activating method. Now pepsin can be applied twice daily and left between the teeth. And millions of teeth are now being cleaned as they never were before.
 Watch the Effects
 We ask you to watch the effects. Pre- sent the coupon for To-Day Tube. Note how clean the teeth feel after using. Mark the absence of the slirny film. See how teeth whiten as the fixed film disappears.
 Compare this method with the old. Read the facts about it. Then decide tor yourself what is best.

MEXICAN TIE-UP
NEARSITS END
Striking Mine Workers at
Vera Cruz Agree to
/, Work.

MEXICO CITY, Nov. 13.-With a
general sympathetic strike spread
ing throughout the gulf district, the
government tonight apparently had
scotched the trouble at its source.
AS reports continued to come in
of clashes between strikers and
strikebreakers in the State of Yucca
tan, announcement was made by the
government that a settlement had
been reached with the striking dock
workers in Vera Cruz, whereby the
men agreed to return at once. The
government promised to operate the
docks until the men could come to
a permanent understanding with the
shipping interests.
General strikes had been called IN
Progresso and Merida, Yucatan and
.Tampico, the great oil center in the
state OF Tamaulipas, In sympathy
with the dock workers In Vera
Cruz. The situation tonight pre-
sented the analogy of a sympathetic
strike with no object for its sym
pathy. 1t was believed in official
circles, however. that the other
strikes would be called OFF as soon
as the strikers could be notified of
the outcome of negotiations in Vera
Cruz. ...
