We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

A. he funny thing was that we fell for each other before we even met! It was a Saturday night at the country club, and she was dancing with some other guy when I first saw her. She happened to look up, just at that instant, straight into my eyes. And . . . right like that! . . . my heart was doing a loop. "From the minute we were introduced, all the rest of the evening, neither of us danced with anyone else. It must have been hours later . . . heaven knows how long we had been dancing ! . . . that we finally slipped away from the crowd, out to a corner of the terrace. "It was dark, we were alone, and there was a moon. So I took her in my arms. She came close to me, lifted her lips to mine, and then, suddenly — turned her head away. "I couldn't imagine what had changed her so quickly, so completely. I asked her . . . pleaded with her ... to tell me. But she said she couldn't — possibly. "That was four years ago "She came close to me, lifted her lips to mine, and then, suddenly — turned her head away.' And I never have discovered the secret of that night. She was the loveliest girl I've ever known. We had clicked, instantly . . . oh, I started as a wonder! But I sure finished as a washout." Poor guy, he never understood. Yet almost any woman would realize what may have happened . . . would understand how fatal halitosis (bad breath) can be to romance. It's a condition which is, perhaps, even worse for a woman than for a man. For so much of a woman's attraction depends on sweetness, allure. And the insidious thing is that you yourself may not know when your breath is tainted. Why not get the habit of taking this pleasant precaution which so many popular, successful people use — rinsing the mouth, night and morning, with Listerine Antiseptic. Listerine halts the fermentation of tiny food particles on the mouth surfaces — a frequent cause of breath odors . . . then quickly overcomes the odors themselves. (Of course, in those cases in which bad breath is the result of systemic causes, the advice of a physician should be sought.) Guard against this fermentation — put yourself on the safe side by putting your breath on the agreeable side. Start using Listerine Antiseptic . . . especially before all important engagements.
