Why you may already have them-and yet not realize it
Make this unique test. Find out what beauty is beneath the dingy film that clouds your teeth
O you seriously want daz- zlingly clear teeth? teeth that add immeasurably to your.. personality and attractiveness?

remove it.
That is why this test is offered, For when you remove that film, you'll be surprised at what you find. You may actually have beau. tiful teeth already-end yet not" cratize it. Find out!".
What that film is Most tooth troubles now are traced to film. It clings to teeth, gets into crevices and staye. Germs by the millions breed in it. And they, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea and decay.
That film, too, absorbs stains... stains from food, from smoking.
from various causes. And that is why your teeth look "off color."
New methods now remove it Old-time dentifrices could not suc- cessfully fight that film. So most people had dingy teeth. And tooth troubles increased alarmingly.
Now new methods have been found. And embodied in a new type tooth paste called Pepsodent.
It acts to curdle the $1m, then harmlessly to remove it. No soap, no chalk no harsh grit dangerous to chamcl.
It proves the folly of ugly teeth. It gives better protection against pyorrhea, of tooth troubles both in adults and in children.
Ten days' use will prove its ben- efits. And that 10 days is offered to you as a test. Why not make it then-have prettier teeth, whiter teeth? Send the coupon now.
Protect the Enamel · Pepsodent disintegrates the film, then removes it with an agent far softer than enamel. Never use a film combatant which contains harsh grit.
