Another Modern Nursery Rhyme.

The unprecedented spectacle of trio of sightless rodents pursued by the incensed wife of an agriculturist orated, as may be imagined, con- siderable sensation. An eye-witness vouches for the fact that the mice mad frantic efforts to dscape, but the lady showed considerable determination und tenacity of 'púr- pose, and was resourceful enough to arm herself with a carving-knife, by means of which she eventually suc ceeded in severing the caudal appendages of the three objects of har pursuit.

Why are doctors patients so

called?

Originally the word "pationt" had nothing to do with any state of patience, or the reverse. It wount "a sufferer," from the Latin patior, I suffer. So that a doctor's patients! are simply, the sufferers who choose to attend him.

In tituo, however, an additional meaning cpt in, implyng one who suffers without complaining.

So that when we refer to a doctor's patients now we use the word as meaning those who suffer without complaint, while, of course, the same word has maintained a separate neoning when we speak simply of one who is patient.

How Pretty Teeth

affect the smile-teeth freed from film

See what one week will do

The open emile comes naturally when there are pretty teeth to show. But dingy teeth are kept concealed.

The difference lies in film. That is what stains and discolors.. That is. what hides the tooth luster.

Why teeth are dim

Your teeth are coated with a viscous film. You can feel it now. It clings to teeth, gets between the teeth and stayɛ..

No ordinary tooth paste can ef fectively combat it. The tooth brush, therefore, leaves much of it intact

That film is what discolors, not the teeth. It often forms the barls of a dingy coat. Millions of teeth are clouded in that way.

The tooth attacks

Film also holds food substance which ferments and form acids. It holds the acids, in contact with the teeth to cause decay.

Geras constantly breed in it. They, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea. Thus most tooth troubles are now traced to film, and very few people escape them....

Must be combated Dental science has long been

seeking a daily film combatant. In lats years two effective methods

•have boca found. Authorities have proved them by many careful teats. Now leading dentists nearly all "the world over are urging their

daily use

A new-day tooth paste has been perfected, made to comply with modern requirements. The name is Pepsodent. These two great film combatants are embodied in it.›.

(

k goes further

Other effects are now considered essential Pepsodent is made to bring them all

It udtiplies the salivary Bow.. It multiplies the starch digestant in the saliva. That is there to di- gest starch deposits on teeth, so they will not remain and form acids.

It multiplies the alkalinity of the saliva. That is Nature's neutralizer for acids which cause decay.

Thus every application "gives these tooth-protecting forces mul tiplied effect

These things mean whiter, cleaner, safer teeth. They mean natural mouth conditions, better tooth protection.

Pepsodent

The New-Day Dentifrice

A scientific film, combatant, which whitens, cleans and protects the teeth without the use of harmful grit. Now advised by leading dentists the world over. For sule in two sires by all druggists,
