Millions of teeth are ruined by it. It causes most tooth troubles. ; There is now away to combat that film, advised by dentists eéverywhere. And a ten- day test will be sefit on your request. : How film dims teeth A viscous film clings to your teeth, enters crevices and stays. You canfeel it with your tongue. Then it forms a cloudy coat and may lead to endless damage. » It is the film-coat that discolors, not the teeth. Film is the basis of tartar. It holds food substance which fermients and forms acid. It holds the acid in ¢ontact with the teeth to cause decay. Millionsof germs breed in it. They, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea. - Very few peopie; under pk'ipmethodi, have escaped these troubles., The ordinary tooth paste does not dissolve film, so the tooth brush failed to end it. Dental science has for years been seeking away to combat it. Five years ago the way was found, and dental authorities have amply proved. its effi- ciency. Now it is urged for daily use, and millions already employ it. It is embodied Pm PAT.OFF. { REG. us. ,s Q e .

See coupon. in a dentifrice called Pepsodent—a tooth paste made to meet modern requirements. ~ Teeth quickly show , There are_three ways in which Pepsodent brings results unique and beneficial, but its action on film is the chief one. Pepsodent is based on pepsin, the digestant of albumin. The film is albuminous matter. The object of Pepsodent is to dissolve it, then to day by day combat it. Pepsin must be activated, and the usual agent is an acid harmful to the teeth. So this method long seemed barred. But science has found a harmless activating method, and now active pepsin can be daily applied. You see the results of Pepsodent wher- ever you look today teeth whiter, cleaner, safer. Now see the results on your own teeth. Send the coupon for a 10-Day Tabe. Note how clean the teeth feel after using. Mark the absence of the viscous film. See how teeth whiten as the film-coat disappears. Compare your teeth now with your teeth in tén days, then decide for yourself what is best for them. Cut out the coupon to avoid further delay.

Yet from an article in .United Empire, May 1920, it appears that such an event is not only possible but prebable it the near "~ future. A new industry has been inaugurated in Canada, with the widest possibilities. In the vast regions of I‘é?‘thern: Canada, streteching to the Artie Cirele. enormous heards of reindeer and caribou.range un- molested. Contrary to the populdr .con- ception, this area experiences a heautiful though short summer, and grows a thiek, heavy vege:ation, which provides an ade- quate supply of nutritive food to those animals through summer and winter. ! ) Recently there was ldid before the Premier- of Manitoba a scheme to turn the uncultiva portions of northern Manitoba, Ontario, and Quebec into one vast reindeer farm. This plan is also before the Ontario and Quehec -Govern- ments and. the co-operation of the Feder- al Governiment is practically assured. It is Rrop’osed to stock this enormous area with seindeer imported from Norway. Thus, it is believed an énormous source of meat sapply would be created, which would be a sourceofprofit to the Pro-. vincial Governments. There is no fodder question to cause trouble and worty, as in the case of cat- tle, and i}is m&o b r‘ouible for one _ manto take¢ of a_.herd of a thou- sand ofthese Janimais. The milk, flesh, and hides are all valuable, reindeer meat, in fact, commanding a lgigher price than. beef, and it is asserted that the Canadian barrens couid support 90,000,000 rein- . deer, worth a huge sum of money.
