DENTAL CREAM
You will find there is nothing like Kolynos that acts so quickly and safely to make dull stained teeth white and brilliant. Its surging, invigorating foam reaches every pit and crevice. It removes ugly atains and destroys dangerous mouth germs that cause tooth decay.
Try Kolynos-its clean, cool taste is do- lightfully refreshing. It is most econom ical too-because you use only half as much as ordinary toothpastes. One-half inch on a dry brush is enough.
