care Of :,
fhen,ol1thL

Physicians know that the nor.
NAL mouth is never free from
germs. There is an ever-present
need of keeping them under
control with some powerful,
bat safe, antiseptic. Otherwise
there is the constant danger of
their causing infection, particu.
larly in the gums.
Zonite is acknowledged by den
fists to be the ideal mouthwash
because it is absolutely non-
poisonous, does not harm the
delicate membranes of the
mouth or throat and is a power
full, sure antiseptic. One tea
spoonful in half glass of water
once or twice a day.
