All statements approved BY authorities

Dental science, after painstaking re-
search, has found new ways to combat
film. Able authorities have proved them
by clinical and laboratory tests. Their
efficiency is now beyond all question.
These methods have with millions revo-
lutionized teeth cleaning.
These new factors are combined in a
dentifrice called Pepsodent - an ideal
tooth paste which complies with all the
new requirements. Leading dentists
everywhere advise it. To prove it quickly

How film ruins teeth

It is this flm-coat that discolors, not
the teeth. Film is the basis of tartar. 1t
holds food substance which ferments and
forms acids. 1t holds the acid in contact
with the teeth to cause decay.
Millions of germs breed in it. Ihey'
with tartar, are the chief cause OF pyor-
rhea. Thus most tooth troubles are now
traced to film, and very few escape them

SOLDIERS LOST BAGGAGE

SERVICE.

The great army piers at Hoboken,
N. j., which will always remain part
of the history and traditions OF the
American Expeditionary Forces, are
being cleared by movers, who are
confronted with the task of removing
100000 pieces of nondescript lost
baggage from the piers. Although
many thousand pieces of the baggage
have been returned to former service
men by the Lost Baggage Department
of the knights of Columbus, 461
Fourth Avenue, it was announced that
the work will be continued by the
Casey" organization and the officials
and men of the army.
All OF the luggage is being removed
to Governors Island where it will be
placed in storehouses and arranged
under an index system Of cards and
files corresponding with the method
in operation at Hoboken. The books
furniture and other paraphernalia OF
the piers are also being carried away
and within three weeks the piers will
be ready for occupancy by steamship
companies. One of the greatest tasks
ahead of the moving men is the trans
ferring of 100000 barrack bags which
have become estranged from home

A FREE IRELAND
SIMPLICITY OF THE "iRISH CUES
TION"-IRELAND WANTS ONLY
TO GOVERN HERSELF WITHOUT
OUTSIDE INTERFERENCE.

Addressing mass meeting of
Friends of Irish Freedom at Rutland,
Vermont, recently, Hon. Daniel F..
Cohalan, Justice of the Supreme
Court, New York, said in part:
There can be no doubt that the
deep interest shown by the people of
America in the Irish question, is hav-
ing very great effect upon England.
Her statesmen, her spokesman are
showing this in a dozen different
ways and her leading organs of opin-
ion are doing their best to minimize
American interest in the question of
Irish freedom and to explain away
the damning facts in the indictment
against England
Their effort is to confuse, to COM
plicate the situation, and to make it
difficult for the people of America to
understand just what are the differ
ences between Ireland and England.
These various statements are all
the outgrowth of the settled English
policy with relation to Ireland. That
policy is to forever keep the Irish
question unsettled, to have as much
confusion in the thought of the world
as possible, concerning the Irish ques-
ton and to paint the Irishman as an
impossible person who does not know
what he wants, and with whom the
sensible Englishman cannot come to
any understanding.
I'm the last analysis the Irish
question is simplicity itself. Ireland
wants and is determined to have the
right to govern herself, without any
interference from outside. She in
sists upon absolute independence.
She has established. by the will of
more than three-fourths of her people
a Republican form of government mod
eled upon our own and she seeks
international recognition.
"She offers to all upon her shores,
regardless Of race or religion, polit-
ical equality and religious freedom.
