P~epsodent also multiplies the
alkalinity Of the saliva, to neutral
ize mouth acids as they form. 1t
muItiplies the starch digestant in
the saliva, to digest starch deposits
which may otherwise fernent and
form acids.
Thus it gives manifold power to
these natural agents which night
and day fight acids-the cause Of
tooth decay.

Nice Teeth
Combat that film if you
seek that supreme charm

A few years ago, beautiful teeth
were seen less often than now.
Now millions show them. You
see them everywhere. People are
combating film.
Tooth troubles were almost uni
versal. Now people combat the
cause in . scientific way,
Won't you now learn what
brought that change about9
FiIm-the enemy
Film is the great tooth enemy
that viscous film you feel. It
clings to teeth, gets between the
teeth and stays.
It absorbs stains, then forms
dingy coats. Tartar is based on
film. That's why teeth lose their
luster,
, 1924-01-16
You'll welcome it

P~epsodent will delight you Note
how clean he teeth feel after using.
Mark the absence Of the viseous
film. See how teeth whiten rs the
flm-coats disappear.
Watch these effects. Cut cut
this coupon and send it for a test.
It will be a revelation
, 1924-01-16

That tooth paste is called Pep
sodent. Careful people of some so
nations now employ it, largely by
dental advice.
, 1924-01-16

Film holds food substance which
ferTaents and forms acids. 1t 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.
That's how tooth troubles come.
The new methods
N5w We daily fight that film.
Dental science, after long research,
found two effective ways. One
acts to curdle film, one to remove
it, without any harmful securing.
Able authorities proved those
methods. Then a new-type tooth
paste was created, based on mod
ern research. Those two great
film combatants were embedded
in it.

Governor Baxter
Speaks of Meet
Republican State
Comm. at Augusta

Gov. Percival P. Baxter in an in
terview Friday said that it would
have been an honor to have served
the Republican party as chairman of
the state convention.
But l am always glad to abide by
the results of well-rought contest"
continued Gov. Baxter.
'The object that have constantly
before me is to help in every way
possible so that the State of Maine
will give a strikingly large majority
for president Coolidge.
This is the end that all good Re-
publicans should work for The Re-
publican party has my hearty sup
port and a trifling incident like the
convention craftsmanship does not af-
feet my loyalty. Maine Republicans
have difficult task ahead of them
and it will require a united front to
carry 1t through.
The Republican convention plat
form, in my opinion. should state its
issues clearly and decisively. There
| should be no evasion. Five hundred
! words are sufficient to say every
thing that is worth while. In times
| past it often has seemed to be the
purpose of the platform makers to
| say nothing. but to use much Ian
guage in doing 50. The present is no
| time for evasion. Let us have a Re-
publican state platform that is as
| terse and as full of meaning as are
the clearcu phrases of President
Coolidge"
