WELSH OPPOSES VISIT
Eamonn Pe Vnlcra, "president of tlic
'Irish republic," hoi been ""invited to
"visit Philadelphia and assured of n
Jiearty reception by Mayor Smith.
Mr. Do Vnlera is scheduled to visit
Philadelphia on Otcober 1. Irish so
cieties and sympathizers in this city
nnd vicinity arc preparing to tender
him reception corresponding with the
position ho holds in the "republic."
Francis Rolston Welsh, of Devon,
protested to Mayor Smith before the
invitation was dispatched because, he
1 said, tho Irish "president" allied his
jnUuence with Germany and against
Great Britain, ally of the United States,
' jduring the war.
The protest was passed by without
notion by the 5ayor, who snid be did
not propose to notice such criticisms.
Tho letter of invitatiou sent by the
Mayor follows:
"Sir As Mayor of the city of Phil
adelphia, nnd speaking, I nm sure, for
its liberty-loving citizens. I hove tho
honor to invite you to visit Philadel
phia. "The kinship of Ireland nnd Phila
delphia is so close and intimate and
so many o the citizens, of whom I am
.official bead, trace their ancestry to
your land, thRt I am sure your wel
iroriie hero will be most enthusiastic
and cordial.
"May I remind you that William
'Pcnn, .tuo great founder ot our com-1
monwcalth, spent some of the forma-
five yenrs of his life in Ireland and .
,that TJiomos Holmes, bis advance
agent and first surveyor, by whom our I
.city was planned and laid out, was a
-native of Ireland? . i
"Among our chief distinctions is
that in Philadelphia were adopted and
promulgated the Declaration of Inde
pendence and the constitution of tho
'United States.
"May I recall that as to the first
of these, although drafted by a com
.mltteo of which the great Thomas Jef
ferson was chairman, the instrument
Itsblf, as preserved in Washington, is
In the Handwriting ot a native oi jrc
Jand, Charles Thomson; and it was
first read to the people of Philadelphia
by tho son of an Irishman, John Nii
on, and first printed and distributed to
'the citizens of the thirteen colonies by
another native Irishman, James Duu-
1P.
"Among the illustrious signers of the
. constitution of the United States and
particularly the representatives of
.Philadelphia, was 1 homas Fitzsim-
mous, a native of Ireland. He lias
the distinction of first proposing OTid
.hecuring the enacting into law, as a
.member of the first Congress of tho
United States, that principle of leg
islation to which America owes so
.much of Its greatness, the imposition
,of tariffs, not for revenue only, but
jffor tho protection and upbuilding of
American industries.
"Hoping that your stay with us will
' be crowded with happiness, I remain,
"Very truly yours,
"THOMAS B. SMITH,
"Mayor."

Look in 10 Days
Note how the teeth glisten.
You can see that the Him is gone.
Learn the Cause of Decay
Dental science has now traced most tooth
troubles to a film. To that slimy film which you
can feel.
That is what discolors not the teeth. 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.
Millions of germs breed in it. They, with
tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea.
The film is clinging. It enters crevices and
stays. No ordinary tooth paste can dissolve it.
A soapy tooth paste makes it more viscous.
So, despite your brushing, much film stays.
Night and day it does its damage. It is the great
tooth wrecker.
Science now has found a way to combat that
film. The fact has been proved by many clinical
tests. The method is now advocated by leading
dentists everywhere.
For daily use it is embodied in a dentifrice
called Pepsodent. And we are mailing 10-Day
Tubes so that every home may try it.
Do This and See
We urge you for your own sake to write for
this 10-Day Tube. See the results for yourself.
Pepsodent is based on pepsin, the digestant of
albumin. The film is albuminous matter. The
object of Pepsodent is to dissolve it, then to con
stantly combat it.
Pepsin must be activated, and science has discovered
a harmless activating method. The usual method is
an acid, harmful to the teeth, so pepsin long seemed
impossible. Now everyone may apply it, morning,
noon and night. And the evidence is that this inven
tion brings a new dental era.
Send tbe coupon for a 10-Day Tube. Note how
clean the teeth feel after using. Mark the absence
of the slimy film. See how teeth whiten as the fixedi
film disappears.
Compare results with the methods you use now.
Then judge for yourself what is best. Cut out the
coupon now.
