That Film on Teeth
Can Now Be Ended In This Wav

You can feel on your teeth Shiny film,
ever-present, overcoming. 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.

Based on Pepsin

Pepsodent is based on pepsin, the diges-
tant OF albumin. The film is albuminous
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 a harmless activating
method. And now everyone can fight the
film with active pepsin constantly.

WENTz DEFENDS SOFT COAL INDUSTRY

American Railroad Association of their agents during theT coal shortage em4r- seHey to increase the production and the sitsRmeHts of bitumineus coal
 -t0n the contrary the priority orders issued by the Interstate Commerce Com mission and the action taken by the rail- ways and the coal producers were em;n- ently practical and right, and have been the direct means of averting very se- rious shortage of coal during the fall and winter.
 The joint statement of Senators Cald- CT and Edge gives the impression that the National Coal Association and the coal industry have done nothing up to this tirae to put an end to abuses which the senators attack. This impression is grossly misleading and unfair. The fact is that the National Coal Association rnesths age. through special committees, began an effort to eliminate various abus- es that had developed during the short. age emergency with the result that through the cooperation of other branch ea of the industry, they have been gen orally eFadieated"
 Had it not been for the efforts of the operators. the statement added. the na ton would now be faced with the calam. iteas prospect of a seft coal famine"
