Advertising Section 95 Be More Careful of your teeth — combat the film Elaine — with a Mind of Her Own Continued from page 26 you to go on the stage, and if you want to go on the stage — oh, how they want you to go to college and be another Portia ! If you want a career they want you to marry and settle down. Don't they know that by adding that 'settle down' they make it less attractive? Oh, I don't mean you, mother ; you are always a dear about letting me have my own way. You know, they used to think I could sing ; that's how I came to go on the stage. When I was home from school one day I inadvertently warbled, and that was the beginning of my stage career. In other words, 'how I became an actress.' " Miss Hammerstein is pretty — there is no doubt about that — but it isn't the thing about her which most impresses you. Plenty of girls are her equal in beauty, but she has a savoirfaire, an elegance, which is most delightful and which is — alas ! — as rare off the stage as on it. Add to this a knack of picking out just the right clothes for any occasion, a trick of putting them on so that they look perfectly stunning without ever being conspicuous, and you know something of Elaine Hammerstein. She is not a great actress, perhaps, and she does not consider that she is. That is another nice thing about her. She is totally without conceit. "Which way are you going?" she asked as we all left the nice cool roof and descended to the hot street level. "It's a holiday," we rephed, "and we are going shopping." "Well, I'm going shopping, too, but I don't consider it a holiday ; a holiday means when you can play golf or tennis or canoe or motor or dance." "But don't you love to buy clothes ?" we asked. "You wear them as though you did." "I love to wear them, but not to shop for them, and these are for my picture. Then I have to go to the hairdresser's, and to sit for some photographs I was rash enough to promise to have made to go with an interview." "Then you don't like being interviewed any better than you used to?" "Not a bit," replied Miss Hammerstein. "The publicity directors have always chided me for my lack of appreciation of their efforts. Sometimes I even spoil their plans." We couldn't help entirely indorsing Miss Hammerstein's views on publicity, although sometimes it does make it difficult for the interviewer. But then she is never like that with us. If you are brushing your teeth in a wrong way, learn what this new way means. Authorities now advise it. Leading dentists everywhere are urging its daily use. Millions of people employ It. Make this ten-day test and let the results show you what really clean teeth mean. That dingy film Film is what clouds, the teeth"s beauty. It causes most tooth troubles. Countless teeth discolor and decay because the old ways of brushing do not effectively fight film. Film is that viscous coat you feel. It clings to teeth, enters crevices and stays. That is what discolors — not the teeth. Film 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. Ways to end it Dental science has in late years found two ways to fight film. It has proved them by careful tests. Now they are embodied in a new-day tooth-paste — called Pepsodent — for daily application. The NewDay Dentifrice A scientific film combatant, whose every application brings five desired effects. Approved by highest authorities, and now advised by leading dentists everywhere. All druggists supply the large tubes. Dentists here and abroad now advise it. It is now bringing a new dental era to some 40 races of people. Other new effects Pepsodent brings three other effects, natural and very important. It multiplies the salivary flow — Nature's great tooth-protecting agent. It multiplies the starch digestant in the saliva, to digest starch deposits. They may otherwise cling and form acids. It multiplies the alkalinity of the saliva, to neutralize the acids which cause tooth decay. Thus every use does five things which dental authorities now regard as essential. You'll quickly see A 10-Day tube of Pepsodent is sent to all who ask. That shows the delightful effects. In a week you will realize that this method means much to you and yours. Send the coupon for it. Note how clean the teeth feel after using. Mark the absence of the viscous film. See how teeth whiten as the film-coats disappear. Watch all the effects, then read the reasons in our book. That test may lead to life-long benefits. Cut out the coupon now. 755 10-Day Tube Free THE PEPSODENT COMPANY, Dept. 396, 1104 S.
