Don't take chances with that Smile! As soon as you see a warning tinge of 'pink' on your tooth brush, tirit your dentist.
Nothing serious may be implied, but he is the one to decide. He may tell you it is simply that your gums are sensitive because to-day's soft foods do not supply them with exercise". All the treatment you may need is "the helpful stimulation of Ipana Tooth Paste dad gum massage",
Brush your teeth with Ipana every morning and evening; then manage the gums vigerously with Ipana on the fingertip. This induces whiter, more lustrous teeth; firmer, healthier gumą.

Home Hints
Occasional tubbing of eiderdown quilts will lengthen their life span and keep them downy. Use luke- warm water and enough mild soap to make a generous billowy lather. Souse the quilt in the suds, wash it with a gentle kneading motion, then whip up a fresh batch and wash it a second time. Rinsing should be done at least three times in water of the same lukewarm temperature as the wash water. Squeeze gently, then hang to dry by spreading the quilt between two lines. When per- fectly day, use a moderately warm iron to press the cover, then - work the quilt between the fingers to dis
