That Film on Teeth Can Now Be Ended in This Way

You can feel on your teeth sliny film, ever-present, ever-forming That film is the great tooth wrecker. Dental science now traces nearly all tooth troubles to it.
 The film clings to the teeth, gets between the teeth enters crevices and stays. The tooth brush does not end it. The ordinary dentifrice does not dissolve it. So millions find that teeth discolor and decay despite the daily brushing.

Why Teeth Discolor

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 pyorrhea.
New Britain herald., 1920-06-22
Based on Pepsin

Pepsodent is based on pepsin, the diges- tant of albumin. The film is alburninous matter. The object of Pepsodent is to dis solve it, then to constantly combat it.
 Pepsin long seemed impossible. It must be activated, and the usual agent is an acid harmful to the teeth. Dental science has now discovered harmless activating method. And now everyone can fight the film with active pepsin constantly.

ARMHIICE WITH VILLA.

According to Mexican reports an
a<mistice has been arranged between
Villa and the provisional government
of de la Huerta-, Villa agrees to
cease operations until July IS, pending
the completion Of arrangements for
a permanent peace.
There is something incongruous in
the thought Of an armistice with a
character like Villa, but the con-
ditions in Mexico, do not lend them
selves to c%ongruity. 81 Villa is a robber
and murderer, and al such4has meri-
ted immediate execution. But Villa
has also. unfortunately. a certain poll
teal status which cannot be ignored
by those who are trying to bring order
to Mexico. It is not alone the muir
derous bandit with whom the authori-
ties have to deal. but the not incon-
siderable element Of the population
which has followed. him and hoped
for political rehabilitation at his
hands. However unwelcome a bar
gain with such q character may be,
perhaps under the circumstances
some such arrangement is the best
thing In sight.

PRIVATE


The transportation business Of the
country Is in an unsatisfactory con-
dition. Freight Is not moving as it
should and the business Of the
country Is embarrassed. Because
this condition has existed for four
months after the railroads were re-
stored to private management there
Is . persistent effort to convince the
public that the condition is due to
private management In other words,
that private management has failed.
and that the railroads should be re-
turned to the government q.
It does not contribute to q clear
understanding Of the situation to
charge against any method of control
defects for which it is not responsible.
And the failure of the railroads to
function as they should at this time
is most certainly not due to the fact
that they are being operated by their
owners rather than by the govern
ment.
The government vas in control Of
the roads for more than two years.
During that time not a single pas
senger a was bought. Only as
many freight cars and locomotives
were bought during the entire period
as had formerly been scrapped in a
single year, so that there was a cry
large net loss in equipment. Repairs
were fnadequately made. so that much
NJ thu nN,v3~~n~% WA Lee ;0 tnl o,do.
Cars were scattered all over the
country, and no road has today more
than a small percentage of its own
r on its WI lines. The official
organizations of many of the roads
were disrupted, and these have not
been restored. The new railroad bill
was passed but a week before the re-
sumption Of private control, so that
1t was impossible for railroad men to
prepare for the change. not knowing
what conditions would be imposed.
The labor troubles which have ex-
listed in recent' months are largely an
inheritance from government control.
Demands for various adjustments
had been made, and the government
had neither granted nor rejected
them, and the roads were returned
with these demands unsettled. FL
nally, the railroads are suffering from
decentralization and lack of pro-
duction which affect every other in
dustry.
In spite of these conditions, rail-
roads from which reports were re-
ceived carried more than a million
carloads more freight in the weeks
from March 81 to June IL this year
than during the corresponding period
last year. In the last week of the
period the increase over the CORE
spending period last year was 50, 900
cars.
All this does not prove that one
system of management is better or
worse than another. 1t does show
that many of the charges brought
against private management are false.
