You will lose

your

teeth!

through Neglect

PYORRHEA'S attack is invisible

THE

HE ugly mouth disease, Pyorries, can lurk for 10 years, unnoticed. It is an invisible enemy which attacks the gums. But only later makes itself known in many horrible ways. Its first warning may be your tooth brush-- just a bit pink from bleeding gums. Then die gums get soft, spongy, ten- der, Next the teeth loosen in their sockets and what may happen then, worst of all, the teeth drop out, or have to be pulled out!

:

The price you pay for neglect, is the dreaded disease, pyorrhea, and all of its attending ills.

Loss of teeth often leads w general bad health and loss of vitality. Your healthy smile disappears and with it, popularity and admitation... and your friends!

You don't have to risk this! Start now. Save your teeth. Use Fochan's for the Gunis. More than an ordinary woth paste, it prevents pyorrhea. E

will keep your gums healthy, your teeth beautifully white, and sound. Remember, there is no substitute for Gne, healthy teeth and the smile of youth and no Einer dentifrice than Forhan's for the Gums.

Forhan's for the Gumy is the formula of R. J. Forhan, D.D.S., speclallar in mouth diseases. It contains Fochan's Pyorrhea Astringent developed by Dr. Forban and used by dentists throughout the world in the treatment of pyorrhea. Sales Agents: Mutiri, Mallian & Co., In

The natural laws of economics require an investor to secure the best return especially upon savings- trust funds-consistent with safety.

The China Realty Company is one of the oldest (established more than 20 years) real estate companies in Shanghai with a steady successful record back of it.

The Company are Realtors, not speculators in Real Estate.

Tho balanco sheat as of December 31, 1931 shows:-

REALTY COMPANY 8% DEBENTURES 8% INTEREST VS 6% INTEREST MEANS ONE THIRD MORE INCOME

The following oxtracha are taken from the Chairman's statement at the last annual Shareholders Meating, February 29th, 1932,

"We feel that the Debenture holder from an investment standpoint, is just as much an Interested partner of the Company as the Common Share- holder and, is entitled to his just return on his, investment, and by the figures given on the two years' working. I think we have amply proven that we were right that our Debenture holders receive eight per cent. interest instead of six per cent.

"The most successful concerns of the future will be those who recognize this principle--that even banks will allocate to depositors a part of profits earned on their money over and above current rates of interests. As our balance sheets show quite plainly the proceeds from the sale of our deben-

tures is not used for the purchase of Real Estate, as we are not speculators, but for investment in first class mortgages, amply secured not only by the value of the property pledged as security, but as a further security the debentures constitute a first An claim on the total assets of the Company, analysis of the figures involved shows that every debenture has behind it assets equal to three times its value."

"If after careful consideration of actual facts and figures you are recieving less than 8 % upon your investments andjor savings, you are not using judgment but following old customs, believing 5% and 5% are current rates.
