Advertising Section 87 Those Cloudy Teeth Are Coated With a Film All statements approved by high dental authorities The Screen in Review Continued from page 60 soothsayer of ancient days tells the modern story in which he seems quite aware of such things as roof wardens and other modern acces CJ sories. "Blind Youth" is ah adaptation of a play and is so long drawn out that it is tedious. It has some very beautiful passages between a father and his son and some very human action between the mother and her sons, but it is so slow that such merits are likely to be overlooked. If, however, you wish to see William De Mille's new leading lady. Ora Carew, you have the chance, for she is seen here in a typical De Mille role. The British producer is coming along. "Midnight Gambols," in which Marie Doro is starred, was made in England and shows a very satisfactory production with exterior scenes that interest. For one thing there is not the slightest suggestion of California about them. It is too bad that with such a nice production the producers were unable to find a better story. "Midnight Gambols" is so simple that it carries little interest, nor does the plot sweep through to a highly intense finish. The story is passable, nothing more. "The Girl in the Rain" is a Universal picture that suffers from the ■ame fault, lack of meritorious story. Here, too, the production is very good, the rainstorm scenes being highly realistic and a number of the exteriors unusually interesting for themselves alone. The star is Anne Cornwall, a young lady who may be remembered for her portrayal of the granddaughter in "The Copperhead" and who has ability. Here, however, it isn't given a chance to show. Tom Moore appears in "The Great Accident," which was made from a magazine story by Ben Ames Williams. It makes very interesting "looking." A regular "souse" is elected mayor on a prohibition ticket through a political trick, and, being a perverse sort of a fellow, he cleans up the town after he himself has reformed. Mr. Moore gives a very sincere and effective performance. Jane Novak is the girl. "Whispers," with the refreshing Elaine Hammerstein, is another picture that hasn't got the necessary story ^material. The production here also is of great merit, and there are some good comedy touches, but the interest lags woefullv at times. "When teeth lack luster, a simple test ■w ould probably show a film upon them. Millions of teeth which once were dull now glisten. You see them everywhere. The reason lies in a new teeth-cleaning method. Dentists everywhere are urging its adoption. And people all around you are enjoying its results. Film Ruins Teeth Film is that viscous coat which you feel with your tongue. It clings to teeth, enters crevices and stays. And most tooth troubles are now known to be due to it. Brushing does not end it. The ordinary tooth paste does not dissolve it. That is why so many brushed teeth discolor and decav. Film is what discolors — not the teeth. It is the basis of tartar. It holds food sub Active Pepsin 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. This method long seemed impossible. Pepsin must be activated, and the usual agent is an acid harmful to the teeth. But science has discovered a harmless activating method.
