Those many people you meet with glistening teeth do something you should do.
 You see them everywhere today. They have gained new beauty and new charm. But. they have also gained new cleanliness, new safety.
 They use a new method of teeth cleaning. Let this test show how much it means to you
 They combat the dingy film
 You feel on teeth a viscous film. That is what clouds teeth.
 s Under old-way brushing, much of that film remains. It becomes discolored, henforms dingy coats, to make the teeth tnsightly and unclean.
 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. } Such troubles became almost universal, due to attacks caused by film.

They Know
The way to winter teeth. Will you


 Science has sought ways to com bat that film. It has found two which proved effective in many careful tests. One disintegrates the film at all stages of formation, one removes it without harmful securing, aA & Authorities have endorsed these methods. A raew-type tooth paste has been created to apply them daily. The name is Pepsodeat.
 Leading dentists everywhere be- gan to advise t. Now careful peo- pie of some 50 nations employ this tooth paste daily. This short test is convincing The user of Pepsodent sees at once results which old ways never brought.
 The new benefits are necessary. Pepsodent rnultiplies the alkalinity of the saliva. That is there to neu- tralize mouth acids. It rarltiplies the ptyalin in saliva. That is there to digest starch deposits on teeth, The combined results bring one. a new conception pi what brushing should accomplish.
 Send the coupon for a l0-Day Tube. Note how clean the teeth feel after using. Mark the absence of the viscous film. See how teeth became winter as the hlrn-eoats disappear.
 Then decide between the new way and the old. Do this for your home's sake. Cut out coupon now.

NEW BRITAIN ON
 AUTO SAFETY ROLL
Fatal Accidents in 1928 Less
 Than During Preceding Year

New Britain is one of 35 cities on the Safety Roll Of Honor" by the Ma tional Automobile Chamber of Con- merce, according 10 the 1924 edition of Facts and Figures of the Automo- bile Industry" which has been re- ceived by the local Chamber of Com merce. To obtain place on this roll of honor, city must show a decrtase in the years total of automobile fa-
 talities. In 1922 New Britain had
 seven deaths caused by auto accidents, while in 1924 the number dropped to four.
 New Britain is listed as having 5,s06 pleasure cars and trucks, 50 taxis and iitneys and 15 buses. This is approximately one automobile for every 12 persons in the city, compared with one in eight for the whole state. Tn California there is car for every three persons, while in Nevada there is only one in 19. New York has the greatest number of motor vehicles, twelve hundred thousand, with Cali fornia, Ohio and Pennsylvania press ing it closely; California, in fact, has more pleasure cars than New York. Connecticut ranks 23rd with 1S2,0o0.
 It is not always realized how far behind the United States in motoriza- ton the rest of the world is. This country has over 13 million cars, or SScs of the worlds total. Great Brit ain is a poor second with 47o,000, followed by Canada and France There are Az in Belgian Congo.
 The production of automobiles has increased from 3,7o0 in 1899 to over four million in 1928, but the change is not purely quantitative one, for the closed car, which in 1916 made up but 1.5co of the total, now consti- tutes S4T. Last years output was worth two and quarter million dol lars.
 The booklet also shows how inn portant the automobile industry is and how the increase in buying cars has been accompanied by increases in savings deposits, life insurance, and residential building. It is shown that in no other line than the automobile will dollar buy more than in 1913.
 Interesting facts are given about the various uses of motor trucks in different parts of the world. In Can ada they are used in connection with in Mexico with copper min ng. in Ireland with cooperative ,reameries, in Syria with oil. Wool | growers use them in South Africa, to- oacco planters in Portugal. coffee planters in Brazil, and the silk indus ny in Japan.
 Data on roads is given, showing | hat earth roads are most economical | or places with little traffic, but where | he traffic is heaviest. the best qual- ty cement concrete is the cheapest.

Majority of Delegates
 HOmeWard Bound Today

New York, July 10.-Most of the democratic delegates and alternates who stuck to the end of the long con- Vention fight were homeward bound today, their frazzled nerves soothed by the concluding session of ovations and little sleep. Few took the time for a good rest they have been promising themselves. The strain of determined fighting was relieved, but the financial strain was not. They had been in New York a long time and home was the place to rest.
 Amusements remained for those that wanted to be amused while, but the homing instinct mounted as the emotions of conflict faded, and not many could think of anything more pleasing than climbing into a train and watching the miles dance by their windows.

GHOST KILLED CAT
Joseph Kirwin of Paterson, \. J.,
 Claims Neighbor Spiritualist Made kSpirits and Ghosts Kill Animals.

Paterson. N. J., July 10.--His be- lief that Edward Overbrook. a spiri- tualist living at Ill Fair street, made spirits and ghosts do his bidding, caused Joseph Kirwin, who lives ne.. door to OverbroolS, to swear out a complaint of disorderly conduct against Overbrook yesterday when he found his cat and dog lying dead in the back yard.
 kirwin told Magistrate Munson Forde, who heard the complaint, that after a spiritualist seance in Over brooks home he heard moans in the yard. He went out and saw a ghost, he said, in the shape of man en- veloped in gray cloud. Then he heard his dog bark and his cat meow. The next day he found the cat and dog were dead.
 The Magistrate, in dismissing the charge, said that he did not feel there was sufficient evidence to prove that Overbrook was responsible for the ghost.
