While Harold Tupper was fighting;

the unsophisticated little girl of 21
years Private Tupper had married
shortly after volunteering for the army,
charges the soldier in a $50,000 dam
see suit filed against Elsethagan In the
circuit court yesterday.
Since the return of the husband the
wife has been forgiven and the Tuppers
have become reunited. The action
eeks damages for the suffering of
Tupper and his wife, due to the alleged
machinations of Klscthacan. who is
vividly pictured In the complaint as a
acoundrel of the worst degree.
Tapper Marries la 117.
Tupper was with the Jth division,
enlisting In March, 1S17. and going to
France in February. 191S. He was
married June It. 1917. to Amanda
Johnson at Holt. Mont. He is 27 years
old. After his discharge from the serv
ice he returned to his home In Kalispell.
Mont., "only to find his home snd fam
ily circle ruined and destroyed." he
asserts.
The complaint recites that Miss John
son was a pure and virtuous girl, who
had been Inured to poverty and hard
ship through an "unfortunate birth to
parents who were very poor." that she
had been forced to work for her liv
inr from an early age and had been
deprived of "artificial decorations and
charms, diamonds and Jewelry and the
passing pleasures which only wealth
can buy. tempting and dear to the
heart of every girl."
Hut she did possess, continues the
recitation, "and enjoy in her own right
and to her manner born, those charms
of nature that wear well love, virtue,
and the longing for a husband, a home
and little ones." She was employed as
a bookkeeper for the Kalispell Mercan
tile company and continued to work
after her husband had gone Into the
service. During his enlistment he al
lotted $25 a month to his wife and took
out an insurance policy for $10,000 In
her name.
Letters Overseas Decrease.
On July 1. 191$. the husband contends
the defendant entered the life of Mrs.
Tupper. and endearing letters overseas
grew few and less affectionate.
"By promises of increased wages,
blandishments of wealth, protestations
of love, tokens of affection, expensive
diamonds. Jewels, costly apparel, auto
mobile rides and dinners, promises of a
beautiful home and luxuries of wealth
after he had divorced his own wife and
her husband either had been killed in
France or been divorced in a proceed
ings for which her new admirer would
pay the expenses, and by belittling the
social and business standing of her
husband," the complaint charges that
Elsethagen "chilled, alienated and de
stroyed" Mrs. Topper's affection for
her husband and won her love for him
self. Wife Hidden, Is Charge.
When Tupper returned from France
his wife was hidden from him, he as
serts, and finally produced by Else-
thagan at the office of his attorney for
an interview with her husband. She
sobbed, confessed her guilt and pleaded
for forgiveness, declares Tupper. and
"because of his great love and her
youth and inexperience." he forgave
her. They moved to Portland to escape
the influence of Elsethagan. he alleges.
Elsethagan continued his machina
tions, declares Tupper, writing clandes
tine letters and making trips to Port
land for the sole urpose of seeing the
girl and persuading her to leave her
husband.
Though the young wife has tried "to
hake off this sinister Influence." ac
cording to her husband, her health has
been ruined and nerves shattered. For
this and his own mental anguish when,
while still overseas, he learned that his
wife had forsaken him. Tupper asks
damages of $50,000. Elsethagan is held
to be worth $100,000. The action is
filed by Attorneys Collier & Collier and
John W. Kaste.

Millions of Germs
Breed in Tooth Film Keep It Off
All Statements Approved by High Dental Authorities
Film Wrecks the Teeth
THAT slimy film which you feel with your tongue causes most tooth troubles. Tho
tooth brush does not end it. The ordinary tooth paste does 'not dissolve it. la
crevices and elsewhere that film clings. That is why your brushing fails to keep
teeth white, free from tartar, clean and safe.
That film 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. Set
all these troubles have been increasing despite the wide use of the tooth brush.
Dental science, after years of search, has found a film combatant Able authorities)
have amply proved this by careful clinical tests. Leading dentists everywhere now urg
its daily use.
The method is embodied in a dentifrice called Pepsodent And we offer a 10-Day
.Tube free now to everyone for home tests.
See the Results, Then Decide
The results of Pepsodent are quickly apparent Some are instant Wo ask you to
see them watch them ten days then decide for yourself about them.
Pepsodent is based on pepsin, the digestant of albumin. The film is albuminous
matter. The object of Pepsodent is to dissolve it, then to constantly combat it
Pepsin long seemed impossible. It must be activated, and the usual agent is an acid
harmful to the teeth. But science has discovered a harmless, activating method. The
inventor has been granted patents by five governments already. It is that invention
which makes possible this efficient film combatant
