REMOVE THE CAUSE
 OF BAD BREATH

Thousands have bad breath and don't realize it. A common cause of this disagreeable condition is the in- effective cleansing of the teeth and the mouth. Brushing the teeth with ordinary tooth paste or powder does not properly sterilize the mouth and does not reach between the teeth, thereby letting parts of the tooth de- cay.
 The best way to rid yourself of bad breath is to use regularly an anti septic mouth wash such as steroline Brushing the teeth with this famous germicide cleanses the entire tooth and heals sore and bleeding gums. leaving the mouth fresh and free from any offensive odor
 Physicians also recommend gar gling Steroline frequently and spray ing the nose and throat with it 10 kill any dangerous germs which might infect the passage to the lungs and stomach. Whether you suffer from bad breath or not, use Steroline regularly to keep away harmful mouth germs. Get a bottle from your druggist today.-Adv
