Read Radio's Big Sister— A Thrilling Novel of Modern Love — Even your best friend won H tell you T^DNA was simply crushed by -—' Charlie's curt note barren of explanation. True, she and Charlie frequently had "lovers' spats" but these were not enough to warrant breaking their engagement. Dis- heartened and puzzled, she sought Louise, her best friend. Perhaps she'd offer some explanation. Louise could, too; could have re- lated in a flash what the trouble was . but she didn't; the subject is so delicate that even your best friend won't tell you. HOW'S YOUR BREATH TODAY? You may be guilty of halitosis (bad breath) this very moment and yet be unaware of it. That's the insidious thing about this offensive condition; you yourself never know when you have it, but others do and snub you unmercifully. Don't run the risk of offending others needlessly. You can sweeten your breath by merely using Listerine Antiseptic, the remarkable deodorant with the delightful taste. Rinse the mouth with it every morning and every night, and between times before business and social engage- ments. As it cleanses the entire oral cavity, Listerine Antiseptic kills outright millions of odor-producing bacteria. At the same time it halts the fermentation of tiny food particles skipped by the tooth brush (a major cause of odors) then overcomes the odors themselves. Remember, when treat- ing breath conditions you need a real deodorant that is also safe; ask for Lis- terine — and see that you get it. If all men and women would take the delightful precaution of using Listerine, there would be fewer broken "dates" and waning friendships in the social world fewer curt rebuffs in this world of business.
