there may be a permanent split In thelr

Film dims the teeth

The teeth's great enemy is film. 1t clouds
their beauty and it destroys the teeth. Most
tooth troubles are now traced to it.
Film is the viscous coat you feel. It clings
to teeth, enters crevices and stays. Very few
people escape the effects of it.
It is the hlm-coat that discolors, not the
teeth. Film is the basis of tartar. 1t holds
food substance which ferments and forms
acid. 1t 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, which
attacks 95 in 100.
The ordinary tooth paste does not dissolve
film, so old methods fail to end it. Dental
science has for years sought the right way to
combat it, for tooth troubles have been con-
stantly increasing.
Evening journal., 1920-04-27
Three unique results

Pepsodent is based on pepsin, the digestant
of albumin. The Aim is albuminous matter.
The object of Pepsodent is to dissolve it, then
to day by day combat it.
Pepsin long seemed impossible. It must
be activated, and the usual agent is an
acid harmful to the teeth. But now HARM
less ac0Vating method permits its constant
use.
Two other new-day requisites are also
found IN Pepsodent. So this tooth paste in
three ways brings whittier, safer teeth.

how clean the teeth feel after using. Mark
the absence of the viscous film. See how

Results are clear and quick, and our book
explains them. Make this test and Judge them
for yourself. Cut out the coupon now.

DE-. Johnston asserted all young
men can be divided into four
classes: Those who have no ideals;
those who follow a false ideal;
those who possess high ideals and
those who are inspired by the high

Christ was badly needed in modern
homes, and that instead of being
guided by this principle an alarming
number of family disputes were set

scribed divorce as "the cancer that

STRIKES AT CONGRESS

Failure OF the House of Repre-
sentatives to include the s24o bonus
for government clerks in appropria-
tions for the next fiscal year was
|described as "a. cruel injustice,
which. II not corrected, will mean
absolute disaster to hundreds. il
not thousands, of faithful en-
ployes" by the Rev. Earle Whitley
in Q sermon at the Vermont Avenue
Christian Church yesterday morn
ing.
Hundreds of government en-
ployes packed the auditorium of the
church, and when the minister made
the assertion, when Congress
wants to economize. 1t begins at the
wrong end" they momentarily for
got they were in church and vigor-
ously applauded the statement.
Secretaries Are Hit.
In this connection DIR. Whitley
mentioned the numbers OF secre-
taries and clerks allotted to Con-
gressmen, and dwelt on the allow
ance for mileage drawn by members
of Congress.
The amount saved by Represent
ative Blanton. OF Texas, from his
mileage, as pure velvet, is more
than some OF the government clerks
receive for an entire years work.
and under these circumstances it
was a display or unmitigated nerve
for him to make a point of order
against the S240 bonus" he assert
ed.
Declaring that criticism of gov
ernment employees had become pop
ular and had been INDUCED in from
pulpits. including his own, DR.. Will
fley added: but l believe the time
has come to defend these clerks,
who are entirely at the mercy of
Congress. II this government is in
efficient, II is not the fault of the
clerks. There are too many clerks
and some of them are inefficient.
but while they remain in the en-
ploy OF the government they are en-
titled to a living wage"
Crime to Seek Betterment.
After reading the statement made
by Representative Wood. to the ef-
feet that the exclusion of the bonus
provision be indorsed, DIR. Whitley
said: This is the most astounding
statement 1 have ever known q
member of Congress to make. II
this view is adopted, it will be a
crime for anyone to seek to better
his condition. II is almost unbeliev-
able that this statement should have
been made. 1 think that Represen-
tatIve Wood has been made the goat
