He had an idea of his own which he would like to seo carried into effect, and that was tho selection of fifteen mon from the British Isles to meet filftoon me.. from any other country in the world at all games. There was something in the character of Englishmen which kept them from being specialists, whilst sportsmen in other countries were specialists to a great oxtan! in some departments: In Eng- land we had all-round sportsmen, who, he thought, were better than specialists. He suggested fifteen competitors because tho petitors might include Rugby football as well as Association, golf, tennis, polo,, and track racing.

Her Wonderful Teeth

Remove the dingy film that's clouding yours and you'll

be surprised that your teeth are just as white and charming as any ezo's-make this unique test.

HR

ERE is a simple test that proves the truth that most of us have pretty teeth without ever knowing we have, or ever revealing it.

This is the reason:"

Run your tongue across your teeth, and you will feel a film. A film which absorbs discolorations and hides the natural color of your teeth.

Remove it and your teeth take on a new beauty. Maybe you have really beautiful teeth without realizing it.

Film is charged, too, with most tooth troubles. It clings to teeth, gets into crevices and stays. Germs breed in it. And they, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea. So, besides loss of tooth

beauty, film is a serious dan- ger to healthy teeth. You must remove and constantly combat it. It is ever present, ever forming.

Old-time dentifrices were unable to combat it success-

fully. And tooth troubles were a serious problem.

Now modern science has discovered a new way. A new-type tooth paste called Pepsodent that acts to curdle film, then harmlessly to re- move it. No soap or chalk, no harsh grit dangerous to enamel.

Mail the coupon for a 10- day tube free. Or, buy a full- size tube at any druggist's today. See what beauty lies beneath the film on your teeth.

Protect the Enamel Pepsodent

Pepsodent disintegrates the film, then removes it with an agent far softer than enamel. Never use a film combatant which contains harsh grit.
