You may be guilty of halitosis (bad breath) this very minute, and yet be unaware of it. That’s the insidious thing about this offensive condition, so fre quently due to food fermentation in the mouth. You yourself may not recognize it , . . but everyone you come in contact with does. Listerine Antiseptic halts such fer mentation, said by some authorities to be a major cause of mouth odors, and overcomes the odors themselves. So why risk annoying and offending others? Why hurt yourself socially and in business? It is so easy to guard against offend ing by gargling with Listerine, the safe antiseptic. Your breath becomes sweeter and more agreeable. If you value your job and your friends, use Listerine Antiseptic regularly. Lambert Phannacal Company, St. Louis, Mo.
