It's from Edna . . .
She and Bob have
Broken
Up"
1 he poor darling ! I thought y they were as good as engaged, f^ What's the trouble?"
"She doesn't give any specific reason. Just says that he'd been acting indifferent 'for some time — then last week he up and married somebody else. But that isn't the worst of it! She lost her job again."
Aunt Vi's face fell. "It doesn't sound possible! Every letter told how well she was doing. Getting such a nice position seemed our reward for all the sacrifices we made to put her through college."
Mrs. Black's hand trembled: "Well, there it is. You can read the letter yourself. Poor dear."
"But doesn't she give any reason ?"
"No, just says that Mr. Brownley told her they wanted an older woman."
"Well, one thing I'm certain of," said Aunt Vi, with finality, "it wasn't Edna's fault. It simply couldn't be!"
You May Not Know
But it was Edna's fault . . . just as it can be the fault of countless other women. And like so many of these women, Edna was the last to suspect it.
Halitosis (bad breath) may endanger every social charm, every business talent.
The msidiou s thing about it is that the victim may not be aware of its presence. Who would blame a man for losing interest in a woman, or an employer for "easing out" an employee with that kind of a breath ?
Don't Risk Offending
Isn't it foolish to run the risk of offending this way when there is an easy and delightful precaution against it?
Simply rinse the mouth with Listerine, notable for its amazing antiseptic power. Almost immediately the breath becomes fresher, sweeter, less likely to offend.
While some cases of halitosis are of systemic origin, it is the opinion of some
authorities that most cases are caused by bacterial fermentation of tiny food particles on teeth, mouth and gum surfaces.
Listerine Antiseptic, because it is liquid, spreads far and quickly halts such fermentation, then overcomes the odors that fermentation causes. If you want to put your best foot forward, never, never omit the Listerine Antiseptic precaution. Lambert Pharmacal Co., St. Louis, Mo.

We'll make a little wager with you that if you try one tube of the new Listerine Tooth Paste, you'll come back for more.
