Look for film on your teeth-that's the cause How to combat it,
Look, at your teeth. If dull, cloudy, run your tongue across them. You will .feel a film. That's the cause of the
trouble. You must fight it.
Film is that viscous coat which you feel. It clings to teeth, gets into
crevices and stays. It hides the natural luster of your teeth.
It also holds food substance which ferments and causes acid. In contact with teeth, this ack invites decay. Millions of germa breed in it. And they, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea. So dingy teeth mean more than loss of good appearance. They may, indicate danger, grave danger to your teeth,

CELEBRATED WHISKERS;
A NEICE'S LAWSUIT,
Milwaukee, May 17-The colobrated; whiskers of Génoral Ambrose E. Burnside, who commanded the Army of the Poto mac in the Civil War, aro to ba the subject of legal arguments Tuesday in the Supreme Court. “ Tho General's niece,. Miss Ella C. Patterson of Milwaukee, sceka to restrain Colgate & Co. from using General Burnside's pictures. in its advertisements of shaving sonp. She also asks $150,000 dam- ages for the "malicious and un- authorised" use of such pictures.. Summons and complaint were led in the County Clerk's office this forenoon.
Shattering an Infinitive to make an adverbial holiday, Miss Patter- son has complained that the soup concern has been "using General
Burnsides and his manner of wear- ing his whiskers as A sort of spring-board from which jocosely and humorously point a moral and adorn à talo."
How They Got the Name.
to
The tale, as it appeared in divers magazines, was entitled "When Burnsides Were in Bloom." And thus it unfolded:
"It is generally believed by peo- ple who speak flippantly of 'side- burns,' 'sideboards,' ote that burnsides were so named because they cluttered up both sides of their proprietor's countenance.
"That hypothesis cannot be sup ported by a single "hair. Burn- sides got the name from the gal- fant General Ambrose E. Burnside. a Civil War hero, who wore that kind of, whiskers.
"Mont of the men who used to think burnsides made them look dashing and dauntless are trying now to keep albums bound in genuine plush from coming to light. It may be admitted that burnsides were not altogether futile. They reduced shaving areas, which was helpful and im- portant."
Cause Talk in Milwaukee.
Now, according to Miss Patter- son, the good gentry of Milwau- kee, reading such advertisements. have got it into their heads that she sold permission to the soap concern for the use of pictures of her unshaven uncle. Many per- sons have spoken to her about it, she said.
ABOUT SPIRITS.
TUMULTUOUS TIMES IN
WASHINGTON.
Washington, May 19-Spirits, those who believe in them and those who do not have gone through a tumultuous time before a committee of Congress holding a hearing on a bill regulating fortune tellers and spiritualists in the District of Columbia,
There were exhibitions of what the spirits do. There were claims; there were denials. There were charges that "table tiping seances" are held in the White House for President Coolidge and his family.. An investigator for Harry Hou dini, Rose MacKenberg, brought the names of the President and a emall group of Senators, including Watson, Dill Capper and Fletcher, into the committee's investigation. Under oath she testified to visit- ing local, mediums to obtain evi- 'dence of alleged faking. She visited Mimo. Marcia, whom Mrs. Harding, wife of the late Presi- dent, once.consulted. Mrs. Jane B. Coates, another Washington medium, was also visited and it was to the latter that Houdini's investigator attributes the state- ment that he knew of table-tipping" scances in the White House,
Mra. Coatos denied emphati-. cally she had ever told Miss Mac- Kenberg that seances were held in the White House. They were held within the shadow of the White House, she said.
Houdini gave the committee an exhibition of trumpet conversa- tions which led to near fisticuffs. Houdini used a tin, cone-shaped device to transmit "spook" mes sages. He gave the messages to Representative Hammer of North Carolina and Mrs. Rogers, Repub- lican, of Massachusetts,
John D. Ferguson, a self-styled "fish peddler". from Cincinnati, took issue with Houdini. Only. the intervention of spectators quieted the incipient disturbances. Representative Hammer shouted for order. Houdini and Forguson paid no attention. Hammer. call- ed for a policeman. The "fish 'peddlor" was led outside.
