Classic Age-Old Mistakes Are still made in teeth cleaning stars of over-bright eyes. And, when he had done, they swarmed up on the platform to touch him, to applaud him, to adulate him. The cries of “Diaz! Diaz!” rang from ceiling to roof. At home, alone, Carlotta waited. If lie failed, how tender she must be, what sustenance, what delicacy, she must employ. I f he succeeded — ah, how she would have loved to sit beneath his triumph, having, herself, held up her feeble torch to light him back. It was worth it. Always, it was the greater or the lesser. Diaz had been the great artist, of the two of them, the greater artist, the greater person. She had done right. When he returned, he was radiant. The old Diaz — the Diaz under whose magic she, the girl Carlotta, had quivered, the finest instrument. He had been invited to dine with the Princess Isolde. He felt elated. Would Carlotta mind? “Of course not,” she smiled. “Your triumph wins you all the rights, Diaz.” But, when he had gone, for the first time in many, many bitter months, the tears came. She felt, desperately now, that she must hang on to her conviction — she had given Diaz back to the world. That had been her mission. Never, she remembered, had she striven to win him back for herself. She had gone, had been able to go, beyond that. She must sustain it. She had given him to the world. The world had acclaimed him. The task was complete and victorious. She must be content. Other things did not matter. She, Carlotta, did not matter. Had never matr tered since the long-ago day when, breathlessly, she had told Aunt Constance that to hear Diaz play would be “a consummation.” So it had been. The door opened, and Diaz was back. He saw her tears. He had her in his arms. “Ah, why do you weep, dear love ?” he said. The tenderness — the tenderness of the long-ago night “Did you think, then, that I did not love you? Because my impulses are selfish? Ah, but my heart is not. Nor my soul. How could they be so, being yours? Magda — Magda — will you be mine wholly — will you marry me — make of all this miracle you have wrought— a consummation ?” Carlotta gave a little laugh, half sob. Her arms tightened about him. “A consummation,” she said. “Beloved, it was that before ever it all began ” FOR LOVE OF YOU By Ivan T. Dowell At dawn upon a headland's height, At dusk upon the sea; Your hand in mine at sunset light, You roved the world with me. We roved the world, and loved it too, ■ So wide, so fair and free. I found it fair for love of you — Did you for love of me? (Seventy-nine) Countless people who brush teeth daily find they still discolor and decay. The reason is, they leave the film — that viscous film you feel. It clings to teeth, gets between the teeth and stays. That film causes most tooth troubles. To clean the teeth without removing it is one ageold mistake. Film ruins teeth Few people escape the trouble caused by film. Those troubles have been constantly increasing. So dental science has spent years in seeking a combatant. Film absorbs stains, making the teeth look Pepsodent brings other effects to accord with modern dental requirements. Right diet would also bring them, but few people get it. So science now urges that the tooth paste bring them, twice a day. Each use of Pepsodent multiplies the salivary flow. That is Nature’s great tooth-protecting agent. It multiplies the starch digestant in the saliva, to digest starch deposits that cling and may form acid. It multiplies the alkalinity of the saliva, to neutralize the acids which cause tooth decay. Another ingredient is pepsin.
