reduction of 69 per cent in acreage
of tomatoes for canning is indicated
by reports received by the bureau of

heavy decrease, although high prices
for cans, box materials and high
freight rates are also mentioned.

Hotel Manager Adds Twenty-
two Pounds to Weight
Health Perfect Now.
"For five years before I got Tan-
lac I had indigestion so bad I just
had to live on milk toast and such
like, but now I'm eating pork chops,
bacon and eggs, steaks and other
real .foods,, and everything agrees
with me so well I've actually gained
22 pounds in weight and feel good
all the time."
The above statement ..was made
by. H. H. Humbert, popular, manager

in relating his experience with Ian
lac recently. Mr. Humbert's uni
form courtesy to the public has won
for him many friends', and. his effi
cient management of the Doxey has
resulted in a patronage of which he
is justly proud.
"I only wish," said Mr.-Humbert,
"I could have gotten hold of Tanlac
several years ago, for it would have
saved mc a world of suffering, to say
nothing of the money I paid out
trying to get wejl.v A.fter eating I
had such awful Cramping pains in
my stomach I often thought my time
had surely come. Gas bloated me
up as tight as a drum, and some days
I had to "leave my office on account
of an awful sick headache. Then
my kidneys began bothering mc and
my back hurt so bad I could hardly
get around the hotel. My kidneys
bothered me at night and the way I
ached and hurt, together with nerv
ousness, kept me froin getting ths
sleep I needed.
"Well, just before I got Tanlac I
was in such a bad fix I just was able
to look after my work and was goin
down hill so fast it alarmed me very
much. But I certainly feel like a
different man now: for, to make a
long story short, I m a well man
and I mean to sav bv that I haven't
an ache or pain of any kind. I cer

The War on Film
- i
That clingy film on teeth
the alkalinity of the saliva, to neutral
ize' the acids which cause tooth decay.
All these results come from every ap-;
plication. Thus mouth acids and the
starch which forms them are effectively
combated. Old-time tooth pastes, based
on soap and chalk, had just the oppo
site effect . '
Dental science nowadays is conduct
ing a war on film. It means a new den
tal era. The object is whiter teeth,
cleaner Jeeth and safer.
Millions of people have already bene
fited. And leading dentists everywhere
are urging this new way on others.
This is to offer a pleasant test. To
bring you the results or awhile. Then
to let you decide if you want them
every day.
Film mars your looks
.'I ' ' ''
'Film is that viscous coat you feel,
ever-present, ever-forming. It clings to
teeth, gets.between theteeth and stays.
This film absorbs stains, so it clouds
the teeth's beauty. It often forms the '
basis of thin, dingy coats. And coated
teeth don't glisten.
So . beauty alone demands its daily
removal. Those who leave it do not
realize how attractive teeth can be.
The great tooth wrecker
But film does more. It 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.
And they, with tartar, are the chief
cause of pyorrhea.
Thus film causes mSst'tbotiiaSojUbies.
Despite the tooth brushv':those trebles
have been constantly increasing until
very few escape. The ordinary dentd
frice does not effectively combat film,
so much has been left intact
That is the situation which dental '
research has in late years sought" Jo L

Modern research has revealed other

starch and deficient in fruit acids. A'
tooth paste should twice 'daily do what '
fruit acids do. It should stimulate Na

mouth.
Pepsodent does that. It: multiplies
