Street Tax Payers
Paying Soc Penalty

Street tax payers are paying up
better since the price went to $780,
said City Marshal C. B. Pouncey to-
day. ''Up to May Is. when a SOC
penalty was added to delinquent
street taxes, I had collected only
about $1,000 from this source, or
about half the total annual collec-
tions. Among the delinquents are
probably about thirty per cent white
people, the others being negroes. And
collections are better since the price
went up, although can't explain this
feature of the situation" Mr.. Poun-
cey is busy just now attending to
other matters, but as soon as he can
ind time will begin making cases
against street tax delinquents. This
means that the delinquents are to be
brought before Recorder Fort who
will pass upon their excuses, and as
sess fit penalty for their negligence.

TEETH
The Mouth Is The Doorway To
Germs That Attack Teeth
and Throat
Daly Mo.th-Wash Is Important

How many times a day do your
fingers touch your mouth? How
many times a day do you breathe
through your mouth?
Every breath you or your child
takes through the mouth, every con-
tact of the lips with anything, opens
the door to germs.
Not all these germs may be harm
full. Many of them may be rendered
harmless by Nature But all of them
can be killed if you rinse your mouth
once or twice a day with Steroline.
Steroline is highly efficient
mouth wash which aids nature to de-
stroy any kind of germ that has lodg-
ed in YOUR mouth. There are germs
that attack the teeth and gums and
cause tooth decay. Steroline pro-
tects YOU against them. 1t makes
your mouth clean and free from va
rious forms of dangerous germ life
and leaves the agreeable tasts which
comes from wholesome publication.
Steroline is a new product, entire
w different in its formula from any
form of mouth wash or gargle prev
iously offered.
Its action on the teeth and gums is
highlv favorable. 1t not only coun-
teracts the destructive effects OF
germs, but its constant use promotes
a vigorous healthy condition of the
mouth and throat. Bad breath, es-
pecially in children, is often the result
of diseased teeth. Steroline sweet
ems the breath. You can go far to-
ward insuring the future health of
your children by teaching them to
thoroughly rinse the mouth with
