Day Tube is being sent to anyone who asks.
A book goes with it to explain the effects.
Thus millions are seeing what it does, and
deciding for themselves.
Send the coupon for To-Day Tube. Note
how clean the teeth feel after using. Mark

Then consider what this means. Film is

Based on active pepsin

Pepsodent is based on pepsin, the digestant
of albumin. The film is albuminous matter.
The object of Pepsodent is to dissolve it, then
to day by day combat it.
This method long seemed impossible. Pep
sin must be activated, and the usual agent is
an acid harmful to the teeth. But science
has discovered a harmless activating method
Now active pepsin can be daily used. And
two other methods are combined with it to
bring desired effects.
The result is tooth paste which is doing
what nothing else has done And the problem
of tooth protection has been solved as it never
was before.
Evening public ledger. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1914-1942, 1920-03-20
How teeth are ruined

The film absorbs stains and becomes
discolored. Thus the teeth grow cloudy.
Film 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 pyor-
rhea. So few escape these troubles if
they leave film on the teeth.
Evening public ledger. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1914-1942, 1920-03-20
You must fight film

To have whittier, safer teeth you must
fight film the cause of most tooth
troubles.
Film is that viscous coat which you feel
with your tongue. 1t is ever-present,
ever-forning, 1t clings to teeth, gets be-
tween the teeth and remains.
The ordinary tooth paste does not dis
solve it. A soapy tooth paste makes it
more clinging. So the tooth brush has
left much of it intact, until dentist could
remove it.
That is why so many brushed teeth dis
color and decay. Tartar forms and
pyorrhea starts. Despite the tooth brush,
these tooth troubles have been constantly
increasing. Every dentist nowadays
knows that this film is responsible.
Evening public ledger. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1914-1942, 1920-03-20

1t is the film coat that dins the
teeth's luster. Film is the basis
of tartar. Film is the stain-ab-
sorber mot the tooth enamel.
Film is called bacterial plaque"
because germs breed there mil
lions of them. And countless
troubles, local and internal, are
now traced to them.
The acids which cause decay
form in that film and stay there.
So Aim removal, day by day, is
the vital part of teeth cleaning.
Without that, brushing cannot
save the teeth.

Let Your Teeth Glisten
Like the Teeth You See-Remove That Cloudy Film


Dental science has for years sought
way to fight film, and the way has now
been found. Able authorities have proved
it by convincing clinical and laboratory
tests.
Now, for home use, the method is en-
bodied in a dentifrice called Pepsodent.
In three great ways this tooth paste
meets modern dental requirements. Den
fists are urging it's adoption. And mil
lions of To-Day Tubes are sent out, so
that people may see its effects.

A new teeth-cleaning method is being
fast adopted. Millions of teeth now
show the results of it. Leading dentists
everywhere advise it. See what that
method does, and quickly, on your own
teeth. Make this ten-day test.

DEATH OF ELEVATOR
 BOY INVESTIGATED
City Not Responsible for Accident Which Ended Life of Faith >.
 full Employe

After thorough investigation by the citys legal department yesterday it was found that the city is in no way responsible for the death a day or two ago of Sam Mckinney, the nine- -year-old negro elevator boy who was crushed to death while stepping into the City Hall elevator.
 The investigation showed that Me Kinney was employed to operate the elevator. That when his period of duty for the day was over and he was leav- ing the car, he reached back for his cap which was hanging in the car, and inadvertently struck the starting mec- hanism. He fell as the car raised from the basement landing and was caught between the floor of the scar and the ceiling of the floor above. His body stopped further progress up- ward of the elevator He was killed almost instantly.
 City officials expressed regret for the death of the boy, who had always been courteous and a faithful worker
 While under the law and the cir cumstances of the accident, the city is in no way liable for the accident, it was decided by the commissioners that the city would defray the funeral ex-
 penSeS.
