A viscous film clings to your teeth, enters crevices and stays. Old ways of brushing do not effectively combat it, So millions of teeth are dimmed and ruined by it. Film absorbs stains, making the teeth look dingy. 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 in it. They, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea, Thus most tooth troubles are now traced to film, Combat it daily Dental science has now found ways to daily combat that film. Careful tests have amply proved them. ‘They are now em- bodied, with other most important factors, in a dentifrice called Pepsodent. 10-Day Tube Free THE PEPSODENT COMPANY Dept. 844, 1104 S.

The Silent Drama (Continued from page 804) from captivity with a baby daughter, and Jean, shell-shocked and crazed, dies— groping for the sunlight which had been his inspiration. The great moment of the picture—and one of the greatest moments of all pic- tures—comes when the soldier dead arise from their graves and go forth to see whether the world has profited by their sacrifice, or whether they have died in vain. It is a marvelously impressive scene, particularly when the solemn march of the dead, silent and unobserved, is com- pared with the glorious parade of the living through the Arc de Triomphe. M. Gance, however, has permitted the idea to run away with him, and he spoils most of the illusion by overdoing it. He lays the lesson on a bit too thick. The acting of Romuald Joubé as the young poet, and of Séverin-Mars as Francois, is incredibly fine, and in this respect, at least, “ J’Accuse" is absolutely in a class by itself. Marise Dauvray, as Marie, achieves the feat of growing old by usual plastering of white grease paint over the temples. methods more realistic than the M. Gance has had the good judgment to leave the Germans out of the picture alto- gether; only the shadows of the Huns are “ J’Accuse” is not an accusation of the Kaiser, or von Tirpitz, or anyone else seen, in particular; it is an accusation of As such, it will be of great interest to everyone who has paid any attention to tl lessons of the last seven y Robert E.
