Now Millions Know

Now millions know by actual test what
Pepsodent can do. Everywhere you see
the results in winter, cleaner teeth.
Pepsodent is based on pepsin, the d.
gestant of albumin. The film is albumi-
nous matter. The object of Pepsodent is
to dissolve it, then to day by day COM
bat it.
Pepsin long seemed impossible. It
must be activated, and the usual method
is an acid harmful to the teeth. But
science has discovered harmless acti-
waiting method. And now this film COM
blatant can be every day applied.
The news scimitar. (Memphis, Tenn.) 1907-1926, 1920-03-16

That viscous film which you feel with
your tongue is the cause of most tooth
troubles. 1t clings to teeth, enters crew
ices and stays. The tooth brush does not
end it. The ordinary dentifrice does not
dissolve it. So it stays much of it
and may do a ceaseless damage.
That is why so many brushed teeth
discolor ard decay. You leave the film,
and that is the great tooth wrecker. De-
spite the tooth brush, statistics show that
tooth troubles are constantly increasing.
