In short, a tooth paste efficient even

tooth brushing, at least, the word
lazy applies to so many of us.
Listerine Tooth Paste is really very

feel clean-and actually are clean.

the antiseptic essential oils that have

It's d curious thing

Human beings are very inconsistent
sometimes
In looking out for our own welfare,
many of us are still superstitiousabout
walking under step>ladder. Others
still stop to pick up pin for good
luck.
Yet, strangely enough we neglect
certain very important duty that in
the end may have a much more seri>
Gus bearing upon self>preservation
and length of life
And that is the care of the teeth.
Most folks, for instance, are careless,
actually lazy, about tooth>brushing.
In the morning we're in a hurry. At
night we're tired.
So this most important job is often
neglected.
Realizing the truth of this, the makers
OF Listerlne set out deliberately to
formulate dentifrice that would fur
nish the easiest, quickest way to clean
teeth.

Champ Seeks Legal Advice
About Contract; Explains
Certain Grievances.

NEW YORK Nov. 16.-Develop-
ments in rift between Tex Richard
and Gene Tunney today centered on
Tunney intimating he may an
nounce he is through with Rickard
while Rickard replies that eff any
one thinks Tunney is not going to
fight for me, I'll bet him 100000
Tunney is"
Tunney informed the United Press
that he has legal advice which says
that clause in his contract with
Richard makes it possible for him
to break the contract. Also he said
that he had received an offer for
bout next summer under which he
would receive 100000 more than
Richards contract promises.
Tunney followed with an enumer-
alton of grievances against the pro-
moter, among them being a declara-
ton that "Rickard never has done
anything for me-" and "Rickard
doctored the pictures of the Chicago
bout and also the Dempsey Sharkey
bout to make Dempsey appear to a
better advantage.
MY contract with Rickard has
given him an option on my first
match after the Chicago show of last
September, but there is nothing that
I see that prevents me from notify
ing Richard want to box for him
in June"
