Brushing won't kill those gems. Use 'STERADENT' powder recommended by over 10,000. dentists as an excellent cleanser and germ-killer for false teeth.

"Add a little 'STERADENT' pow- der to warm water, stir well and leave your teeth in it for 20 minutes.

while you dress or overnight. In the morning, rinse them. They will be clean, germ-free and spotless.

'STERADENT' removes stains, even when- they are years old. Even blackest, tobacco stains will com- pletely disappear after a few treat ments. It is guaranteed to give complete satisfaction, and cannot. harm your false teeth. Try it to-night.
