STEALING downstairs on silent paws, the Bird House Cat
is all set to make a raid on the Zoo’s food-mixing room.
• LUiY cats probably dream about
« u juo hi uie oronx
Am Zoo’s Bird House. Imagine a
cat turned loose with 700 birds!
It sounds exciting for the birds,
anyway — never knowing when dan
ger might leap from a dark comer.
Actually it’s a lot more nerve-wracking
for the cat. He has to watch out or the
birds will pounce on him.
But visitors to the Zoo don't know
that and it always startles them to
see a cat peering through the door of
a cage the keeper has momentarily left
open. It fooled me when I was new at
the Zoo: I ran to report an impending
tragedy, but the keeper only laughed.
"Oh. that’* the Bird House f'ar
ne s more scared ot the birds than
they are of him.’'
There have been several generations
of Bird House cats and all have been
completely reliable. But the first one
had to leam a hard lesson.
As a kuten she pounced on pet birds
loose in the food-mixrnjr mom. So they
let her try pouncing on a tough old
bluejay. a notorious fighter.
One fierce peck on her nose and she
learned her lesson. She must have
passed the story on to her own kit
tens. because they all keep clear of
birds. -William Bridges

Here's How To
SOT YOUR PRECIOUS TEETH
BUM THIS INJURY 1
Change To New Liquid Dentifrice
Which beautifies Your Teeth
Without Abrasives
It’s a scientific fact: Abrasives con
tained in dentifrices are causing
millions of people to slowly injure
their teeth.
These abrasives consist of parti
cles so small you can’t see or feel
them. Yet they are so hard that, as
you brush them back and forth,
thejggradually wear away the softer
part of your teeth wherever this
pert is exposed by shrinking gums.
You can save your teeth from this
appalling injury simply by chang
ing to the revolutionary new denti
frice for brushing teeth—Teel.
Not a paste—not a powder—Teel
is a ruby-clear LIQUID containing
absolutely no abrasives. Tests show
that it cannot injure even the softer
part of your teeth.
Haw Taal Warks Ta Beautify Teeth
Teel uses a new-type, patented
cleansing discovery that bursts into
thousands of tiny, surging bubbles
in the mouth which instantly go to
work to help remove the daily accu
mulation of decaying food particles
and dulling surface film. Thus your
teeth look so much whiter, more
thrillingly beautiful.
Also, Teel’s amazing action gives
your whole mouth a glorious beauty
bath—a refreshing clean “feel.” It
helps sweeten bad breath. A few
drops of Teel in V4 glass of water is
delightful as a mouth wash.

nomical. Get a bottle today at any

fessional care. Procter fit Gamble.

Scientific research has proved that this damage
is caused by regular brushing with dentifrices
containing abrasives. Clinical studies* show that
8 out of 10 adults examined risk this injury be
cause the softer part of one or more teeth is left
exposed (usually due to shrinking gums) with
no hard enamel to protect it. You can avoid this
trouble by changing to Teel Liquid Dentifrice,
because it contains absolutely no abrasives.
