Pebeco Saves

A score of dentifrices can
clean teeth. That is easj
But how about saving teeth?
This is the final test of a real
dentifrice.
Pebeco
Tooth Paste
saves teeth by overcoming
"Acid-Mcjuth.M Because
Pebeco protectstooth-enamel
from the attacks of "Acid
Mouth" it gives Pebeco users
the best chance in the world
to keep their teeth for life.
"In the 25 yean I have
been practicing medi
cine, great strides have
been made in the scicn.
i tific care of the teeth.
Without a doubt the
biggest tep forward is
neutralizing the effect of
mouth acidi. That's why
I use and recommend
Jmy patients to use

The undisguised taste of

Pebeco costs more. Comes

home Is a false assumption, and It la
the business of women to remedy any
belief of that kind. Tho homo Is the
economic institution, nnd It Is Important
for the women to make tho home nn
economic factor. If social conditions are
to be made wlint they should be, men
and women must co-operate In remedying
the condition.
"When women learn thnt men are as
good as themselves, and when men learn
that women are their equals, then this
great State will take its foremost place
in ninny ways, as It already has In sorno
days in tho sisterhood of States."

A dash of speed, a pull up a
long hill, a steady plugging
throtrgh the heavy road, a quiet
gliding through the crowded city
streets these varying require
ments are all alike to the 1915
Chalmers "Light Six".
It's ready for any of them and
it does them all equally well "on
high."
AD "toce" are more flexible than
"four". But the Chalmers "Light
Six" built complete in tha
Chalmers shops has a range
of ipeed and power unequalled b
other can of the tame rated horse
power. This peat car will vralk along at
two miles per hour without the tight
est motor-neaitation. And then in
1 0 teconds, with just a touch of tho
accelerator, you can reach 25 miles
an hour. Chalmers engineers design
it and Chahners-tiained men build it to
do things at which other cars falter,
You can ttart on high from a
standing position. You can weave
your way through traffic without touch
ing the gear lever. You can do a
score of things that the Chalmers "Real
Test" Ride will prove.
