CALVERT'S
Carbolic Tooth Powder.
They evidently realize both the personal satisfaction and the hygienic importance of brushing their teeth to remove the food particles, etc.; which collect on or between them,
Their experience tells them too, how well Calvert's Carbolic Tooth Powder aids the tooth-brush to do its work easily, thoroughly and pleasantly, polishing the enamel and, at the same time antiseptically cleansing wherever it gocs. That is why more and more people use it every year,
