crackers eight. Now we have little use for those scales at all-everything is above eighteen cents."

A jovial Roman Catholic priest recently told this story in a company gathered around the camp-fire: Aaron Isaac's store was in a Catholic neighborhood and wasn't doing well. Isaac concluded that his creed was the trouble and went to the priest. The priest admitted him to the Church and christened him MacIsaac. A short time afterward MacIsaac invited the priest to dine with him. A fine roast duck graced the board. The priest raised his hands in horror. "Why, MacIsaac," he said, "this is Friday, and a good Catholic eats only fish on Friday." "Oh, father, forgive me, I forgot," said MacIsaac. "What can I dowe'll have no dinner!" The priest thought a moment. "Mac," he said, we won't sacrifice our dinner. Duck! duck!" he exclaimed, extending his hands, "I christen thee hadduck!"

In an article on "Some Experiences in Neurologic Therapeutics " Dr. C. K. Mills, of the University of Pennsylvania, tells of various obsessions, including some in which, he asserts, patients and physicians attribute mental maladies to the teeth. He says: "One of my medical friends had a rather interesting experience in connection with this subject. An old gentleman had suffered with pain in the region of the sacroiliac synchondrosis. A consultation came about with a physician and a roentgen-ray specialist, and one of the consultants without any examination of the mouth or jaws expressed the opinion that a probable source of the trouble would be found in abscesses at the root of the patient's teeth. My friend, after allowing him to go on with his dissertation a short time, said casually, 'It may be, but I must remark that our patient hasn't had a tooth in his head for five years.""

At a recent meeting of British journalists the chairman told the following story: "I met a newspaper man to-day who came to Fleet Street twenty years ago with exactly 25s. in his pocket. He is now worth £40,000. He owes that entirely to his own ability and energy, combined with good health and a high code of ethics-and to the fact that an uncle recently died and left him £39,995."

The lawyer was cross-examining a witness to a robbery. "When did the robbery take place?" he asked. "I think -" began the witness. "We don't care what you think, sir. We want to know what you know." "Then if you don't want to know what I think, I may as well leave the stand. I can't talk without thinking. I'm not a lawyer."

Is there anything that the enterprising trader is unwilling to invest in with a chance of possible profit? One might think that gas masks, of all things, would be unsalable in these days. Yet a New York newspaper contains this item among things offered for sale:

200 gas masks, rejected by U. S. inspectors. Another queer advertisement in the same paper announces :

Invisible face rouge, stands sea bathing, 50c. A British provincial paper carries this advertisement, which indicates much faith in human nature:

Will man who got paid twice for Two Polly Heifers at Thomastown Fair on 3d June communicate at once with C., —.

You Must Remove the Film

Your teeth are not rightly cleaned if they discolor or decay, if tartar forms or pyorrhea starts.

You may brush them twice daily, but the great tooth wrecker-a slimy filmis not being ended by it.

The cause of most tooth troubles is an ever-present film. You feel it with your tongue. That is what discolors-not your teeth. It is the basis of tartar. It holds food substance which ferments and forms acid. It holds the acid in contact with the teeth to cause decay.

Millions of germs breed in it. They, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea. So it is that film, not merely food

debris, which the tooth brush must combat.

The tooth brush alone is inadequate. The film is clinging. It gets into crevices. hardens and stays. The old methods of teeth cleaning fail to dissolve it.

Dental science, after many years of searching, has found a way to combat it. Able authorities have proved this fact by convincing clinical tests. Leading dentists everywhere accept it.

This way is now embodied in a dentifrice called Pepsodent. And we gladly supply a 10-Day Tube for anyone to test.

A Ten-Day Revelation

We ask you to try it, to watch its effects, then look at your teeth in ten days. It will change all your ideas on teeth cleaning.

Pepsodent is based on pepsin, the digestant of albumin. The film is albuminous matter. The object of Pepsodent is to dissolve it, then to constantly combat it.

This way is made possible by a new discovery. A harmless method has been found to activate the pepsin. Five governments have already granted patents. The old activating agent was an acid, harmful to the teeth. And Pepsodent must be activated.

Pepsodent

The New-Day Dentifrice

A scientific tooth paste based on activated pepsin. An efficient film combatant, now endorsed by dentists everywhere and sold by druggists in large tubes.

We urge you to prove Pepsodent as dentists prove it-by actual application. See the results, read the reasons for them, and decide for yourself about it.

Send the coupon for a 10-Day Tube. Use like any tooth paste. Note how clean the teeth feel after using. Mark the absence of the slimy film. See how teeth whiten as the fixed film disappears.

Do this for your sake and your children's sake. Learn the better way to clean teeth. The results will show you very quickly that this way is right. Cut out the coupon now.
