TUDY attractive people, men or women. Note the tremendous part gleaming, white teeth play, Don't believe your teeth are naturally dull, "off color." You can disprove that in a surprisingly short time. Modern science has found a new way in tooth and gum care. A way different from any you have ever known."

Run your tongue across your teeth, and you will feel a filio, a viscous coat that covers them.

That film is an enemy to your teeth --- and your gums. It clings to teeth, gets into crevices and stays. It absorbs discol orations and gives your teeth that cloudy, "off-color" look. Germs by the milliona breed in it and lay your teeth open to decay. And they, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea and gum disorders.

Old-time methods fail in successfully combating film. That's why your teeth remain duil and unattractive.

Now, in a new-type dentifrice called Pepsodent, dental science has provided effective combatants. Their action is to curdle the film and remove it. Pepsodent also firms the gums.

Then the lovely, gleaming teeth you see. will amaze you. That's where ordinary methods fail. Combat the film twice daily this scientific way.
