Film is your teeth's great enemy
that viscous film you feel. No
ordinary tooth paste effectively
combats it, so much of it clings
and stays. Soon it becomes dis
colored, then forms dingy coats.
That's why teeth lose luster.
/. Film also holds food substance
which ferments and forms acid. It
holds the acid in contact with the
teeth to cause decay. Germs breed
by millions in it. They, with tar
tar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea.
Nearly everybody has suffered
from these flm-caused troubles.

In 10 Days
New beauty-new safety-new
delights, by combating film on teeth

One disintegrates the film at all
stages of formation. The other re-
moves it without harmful securing.
Able authorities proved these
methods effective. Then a new
type tooth paste was created to
apply them daily. The name is
Pepsodent.
Dentists everywhere advise it.
Careful people of some so nations
are employing it today. You
should learn what it e to you.

A film stainer

Particularly men who smoke
find that film becomes discolored.
Pepsodent brings to those men
quick, conspicuous effects. But it
brings to all, and quickly, results
which are convincing.
Present the coupon for a To-Day
Tube. Note how clean the teeth
feel after using. Mark the absence
of the viscous film. See how teeth
become whittier as the flm-coats
disappear.
Then you will have a new idea
of what clean teeth mean. And
you will wish your family to use
this method always. Cut out cou-
pom now.
