So Pepsodent brings new dental era to

effects which old ways do not bring. So mil

Means a new dental era

Old-tir1e tooth pastes, based on soap and
thalk, depress these factors in saliva They
reduce this tooth-protecting power on which
so much depends. And they do not end the
film.
The Rock Island Argus and daily union. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1920-1923, 1922-05-17
Other new effects

The saliva contains two great tooth-pro-
tecting agents. One is a starch digestant
That is to digest starch deposits on teeth be-
fore they ferment and form acids. The other
is alkali, to neutralize the acids which cause
tooth decay.
Certain food elements will multiply those
tooth-protecting factors. But modern diet
often fails to supply those elements regu-
larly. Authority, therefore, desires the tooth
paste to apply that stimulation twice day.
Pepsodent does that. II multiplies both
the starch digestant and the alkalis in the
saliva. Every application gives these natural
tooth protecting agents MANIFOLD effects.

A new method of cleaning has brought
prettier teeth to millions. Also cleaner, safer
teeth.
You see the results wherever you look.
Teeth now glisten which before were dim
They show in smiles now where folks once
concealed them.
This is to tell you the reason, then to urge
that you make free test
They remove the film
These millions have gained winter teeth
by simply combating film in this new way.
Film is that viscous coat you feel It clings
to teeth, gets between the teeth and stays
The ordinary tooth paste does not ettec-
lively combat it The tooth brush, therefore,
has left much of it intact.
Film absorbs stains, making the teeth look
dingy. Film is the basis of tartar. That is
why teeth become cloudy and discolored
And some teeth-lixe smokers teeth-be-
come badly stained.
Film holds food substance which fernents
and forms acids. It holds the ACIDS IN CONTACT
with the teeth to cause decay.
Germs breed by millions in it. They, with
tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea.
Thus most tooth troubles are now traced
to film. Those troubles have been constantly
increasing for lack of a proper him COM
blatant.
Now you can fight it

ANOTHER GREAT.
 BATTLE

| Today the nations of the earth are getting ready for the greatest com
 mercial battle that has ever beer
 waged, Domestic and foreign com
 cree will expand with tightening like
 rapidity,
 The army of business must of ne- cessity be recruited from sources out side of business itself, which means that boys and girls from the farms, | factories, and from other walks of life will be drawn into business pur- suits to help win the battle for com mercia supremacy, which must be
 won by America and by American business interests.
 The biggest opportunities the world
 has ever offered are openning up now, and it is importent that young men and women everywhere should understand this condition and should get ready without delay for the big places that will be open to the ann bilious boy or girl who is properly trained for service
 Statistics proove that only about four per cent of the nations young people embrase the wonderful oppor tunity that a business {, ,aining offers. Where do the ninety-siy per cent go? Thousands become teachers at poor pay and with little or no opportunity for advancement. Thousands be- come telephone opperators Thou sands more become department store clerks. Thousands become nurses, manicurists, sweat shop workers. Boys become raiIroaders, clerks fac tery workers. day laborers, etc. We could improve the positions and the incomes of at least 50 per cent of this 96 per cent If only they recog nised the value of a business traln- ing-if only they were educated to the wonderful opportunities it offers If the boys and girls of New Britain and vicinity knew the value of this training as we know it and as thou sands of others, who have used it as a stepping stone to success, know it. our school would never hold them.
 It is the purpose of this Educa- tional Contest to get the young peo- pie to realize the tremendous oppor- tunities that are now before us, and to emphasize not only the need of and the immediate necessity for, but to enable the ambicious and ener- getic young men and young women to secure this training at the lowest nossible cost.

The object of all education is the deNelopement of the indevidual to the point where he leads the largest, full est. and happyest life.
 The child with no schooling has one chance in 150,O00 of performing distinguished servise; with an ele- mentery education he has times the chance; with a high school educa- ton, S7 times the chance; with a business education, 500 times the chance.
 Records show that the $50, who graduated from Night School of Com merce. Finance, and Business Admin istration in one of our Eastern Uni versitles in seven years, have had their salarys increased on an average of 23 per cent a year.
 One of our girls who accepted her first passion but a few years ago is now getting a salary 250 per cent greater than when she started.

BUSINESS TRAINING THE BEST STEPPING
 STONE TO SUCCESS

Men and women prominent the world over, got their start by use of such training. The same method which helped them to secure a foot hold on the ladder of success is help ing thousands more in the world of business. A knowledge of such courses as are given in the CONNEC- TICUT BUSINESS COLLEGE, has prooven often greater stepping stone than in the world of literature and roliticks. Prominent business men now ho' ding the leading positions in our great business institutions, were fifteen or twenty years ago, found in the ranks of the clerical help, with a knowledge of bookkeeping shorthand, typewriting and kindred subjects.
 Somebody asked Edward Box Why do stenographers get ahead so rapidly?" Well" he said "sten- og9aphy places them in positions of confidence and brings them in the di- rect contact with their employers This gives them an insite into the in ner workings of the business, which they could not get in another way and gives them a chance to distinguish themselves in the eyes of the employ CTS. Millions of men and women never come in contact with the boss, consequently much fine talent is often overlooked"
 Edward Box, known the world over, the brilliant editor of the Ladies' Home Journal and Vice President of the Curtis Publishing Company, began his career as stenogra pher
 Woodrow Wilson, a leading charac- ter in the world until very recently, makes constant use of stenography and is thereby enabled to do a great deal more work and do it easier than would be possible without the use of shorthand and typewriting. It may be remembered that when he went to Europe he took his own typewriter along with him
 Frank A. Vanderlip, President of the National City Bank Of New York City, the largest bank in the world, began al a stenographer in the city of Chicago. During the war he added to his fame as an American patriot by giving up his own position tempor- arily with the above bank and accept ing a position at Washington in the Treasurery Department. IL is said that his wisdom and judgment had much to do in floating the Liberty Loans and in devicing the methods of raising money by means of Thrift Stamps

The above list could be heightened to All volumes. Really the success stories of today are built around the commercial classroom instead of the Little Red School House" of fifty years ago. If one were to compile a directory of all the men and women who used stenography and bookkeep- ing as steping stones to success, 1t would never be up-to-date for in adj ton to the thousands that could be mentioned now. there are thousands more on the way.

the laboratory fills requests for single jars in the
order received. Each jar is a full two months sup

Send no money, but pay the postman a total OF

If you expect to be out when the postman calls,
you may as safely send check or money order for
