WHY TEETH DECAY
AND GUMS RECEOE
Every Breath Can Suck Germs
Into The Mouth Where They
Multiply and Spread
A New Way To Protect Mouth

The real cause of tooth, gum and
throat troubles is not hard to find.
Remember, every breath you take
through your mouth may be loaded
with germs. Your teeth and gums
are right at the doorway of your
body and germs which would die
quickly on the outside skin, live and
make trouble in the mouth because it
is warm there.
If your teeth and gums are already
in bad shape, go to your dentist at
once. If you or your children have
throat trouble consult physician.
But remember that the germs you
breathe in, lodge in the mouth and
cause many of these Affections, and
you can prevent this by daily mouth
wash with Steroline.
Steroline is new product, formu-
lated to serve as an antiseptic mouth
wash and gargle. It's daily use will
kee~ your mouth clean and whole
some. When you rinse it over the
membranes of the mouth and through
the teeth, you protect yourself
against germs that might later find
their way to the lungs and stomach.
Children who do not know these
things are likely to let soiled fingers
and objects come in contact with the
mouth. They soon learn to use Ster-
oline (diluted) which leaves clean,
fresh, agreeable taste and may save
them much unhappiness later on.
If you or your children are free
from tooth, gum and throat trouble,
be thankful and keep up this condi-
ton by using Steroline. If there is
trouble, have it attended to promptly
and do something to avoid future re-
currence by daily cleansing of the
mouth with Steroline.
Steroline is sold and recommended
by druggists The price is SOC the
bottle. The formula is printed on
the label. Steroline is always pre-
scented in an ethical manner. adv

A Shampoo That VIII
Not Whiten The Hair

The serious objections to cheap
shampoos are that they contain i'm
purities and alkalis. They burn and
deaden the hair, deprive it of life
and color, make the scalp and halr
dry and eventually white. Only
natural blends of the purest and most
highly refined Cocoanut and Palm
oils as blended in Shuco Shampoo
should be used. Shuco Shampoo is
a perfect saponifcation suspended IN
a solution that easily changes into q
bushel of rich, creamy, bubbling and
sparkling lather.
Apply to the moistened hair and
rub well adding water and shampoo
as needed. 1t vanishes all dirt, dust
and dandruff, rinses out quickly and
perfectly, leaving the hair soft as
velvet, light and fluffy. Your mirror
will tell you why Shuco Shampoo
makes hair with thousand lights,
At any good drug store.-(adv.)

CARD OF THANKS.

In loving memory of our father and
husband, who departed this life
May 10, 1920:
Oh, it was so hard to give him up
but God knew best, his will be done
not ours. We feel assured that he is
at rest and we hope to meet him in
the sweet by and by.
Oh, how our hearts do ache, and
oh, how lonely we feel for there is a
place in our hearts which never can
be filled. Safe in the arms of Jesus
safe on His gentle breast and by His
beloved side our loved one shall
rest. An angel chorus from above,
welcomes our loved one there, and in
the heavenly courts of love they are
free from sorrow and care. And we
thank our many friends for their
kindness and we also thank those
for the flowers they brought, and we
thank DR.. Chambliss for his kind at
tention through the illness Of our be-
loved father and husband, he will
long be remembered by
