The Attorney-General (Sir Gordon Hewart, KC.), who appeared for the Crown, said the claims were in con- nection with certain services rendered in the development of the particular kind of bow mine defences for vessels at sea known as paravanes. The general scheme of that system was that instead of the method of freeing ships from the menace of mine-fields by means of sweeping operations that were conducted by special vessels each ship should carry her own ming defence. Sir Gordon men- tioned that minesweepers were suc cessful up to the Armistice in getting out of the way some thirteen thou sand mines, and since that date they had accounted for twenty-three thou-

THE

GUMS.

Ender the gums is the important foundation-the bony rootsockete which hold the teeth in place.

Healthy gums guard and preserve this foundation of your teeth. Soft, bleeding, tender or receding gums allow Pyorrhas infection to creep beneath them. If unchecked, the germs spread to the bony root sockets, weaken and destroy them.

Then your teeth become loose and eventually fall act, or must be extracted-because Pyorrhea has eaten away their supporting founda- tion. You may have kept the visible sarfare of the teeth white and glistening by daily brushing-you may have had all cavities, skilfully filled-bat all that care has gone for naught because you neglected your gums...

Watch your gums if you want to save your teeth.

་་

Pyorrhoide Powder was compounded for the specific purpose of maintaining and restoring gum health. In addition to its ingredients which keep the teeth white and clean, it is medicated with Dentinol, a germicidal and healing agent widely used by the dental profession i the treatment of Pyorrhen at the dentist's chair.

Pyorrhoida Powder tones up the gums, stimulates their blood circulation, maintains hardness and firmness, thereby increasing the power to resist Protea infection. Its effectiveness for this par se has been conclusively prered by thorough tests in clinics derotect exclusively to Pyorrbes study and research. That is why dentists everywhere recommend it.
