It dims the teeth, clouds their beauty, causes most tooth troubles. And .no tooth paste, until lately, could effectively combat it. Film absorbs stains, making the teeth look dingy. It is the basis of tartar. It holds food substance which' ferments and forms acid. It holds the acid in contact with the teeth to cause decay. Germs breed by millions in it. They, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea. Also of other diseases. Now we combat it Now we have ways to combat it. Able authorities have proved them' by many careful tests. Modern dentists urge their daily use. Both are embodied in a' dentifrice called Pepsodent—a scientific tooth paste. And other factors are used with them to bring five desired effects. Five benefits Pepsodent acts in five ways, including film removal. It multiplies ! the salivary flow —Nature’s great tooth protecting agent. It multiplies the starch digestant in the saliva, to digest starch deposits that cling. It multiplies the alkalinity of the saliva, to neutralize the acids which cause decay.

Mr Henry Ford possesses a remarkable “mechanical memory,” if we may believe a story told by a friend of his in one of the American magazines. A few years ago a Detroit business men’s association was taking a steamer excursioh on the St. Mary’s River, and the famous automobile manufacturer was of the party. As a group was engaged in conversation on the deck, Mr Ford suddenly slackened his interest in what was being said, his attention being diverted to another boat that was nosing along the river not far away. It could bo seen from his attitude that he was listening to the throb of the engine. “Why, I helped build that engine years ago,” he explained; “but that isn’t the boat we put it into?” “How do you know?” asked his friend. “I can tell by the sound of it,” replied Mr Ford. “To the person who loves and understands them, engines have voices just as human beings .do." Inquiry was subsequently made, and it was found that the engine was one which Mr Ford had helped to build—for another boat. ■ The record of impudent thefts committed in a house which was recently sold by a Christchurch resident and from which all the household goods hod not been removed, would be difficult to boat (states the Christchurch Press). On the' first night after the family had left the house a basket of washing was removed. The next night a watch was kept on the premises without the thieves being detected.
