HONGKONG, CRICKET LEAGUE,
II.K.C.C. NOT YET FINST DIVISION WINNERS,
It had been announced mistaken ly that the Hongkong Cricket Club have already won both divisions of the local erciket league, the error having arlsen by reason of the few mutches played by the Royal Artil- Jery.
The Royal Artillery are in the position to top the, First Division if they win their four remaining matches, and the Club loses thats last game. The chances are, of course, overwhelmingly in the Club's favour, but the First Division is not yet won.
The victory in the Second Divi- sion is assured.

Note the tremendous part gleaming," white teeth play, Don't believe your teeth are naturally dull, "off color." You can disprove that in a surprisingly short time. Modern science has found a new way in tooth and guni care. A way different from any you have ever known,
Run your tongue across your teeth, and you will feel a film, a viscous coat that covers then.
That film is an enemy to your teeth — and your gums. 11 clings to teeth, gets into crevices and stays. It absorbs discol- orations and gives your teeth that cloudy, "off-color" look. Gerns by the millions breed in it and lay your teeth open to decay. And they, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea and gum disorders.
Old-Hime methods fail in successfully combating filth. That's why your: teeth! - remain dull and unattractive..........
Now in a new-type dentifrice called Pepsodent, dental science has provided
effective combatants. Thein action is to curdle the film and remove it. Pepsodent also firms the gums:-
