Are You the Dupe of 

 a Patriotrick? 



APATRIOTRICK is a swindle by which your patriotism is twisted to 

 serve the selfish interests of another. It usually takes the form of a 

 spreading rumor that a certain brand of goods is owned or controlled 

 by Alien Enemies. True patriots do not want to buy such goods and in times 

 like these a lie has a thousand lives and travels on broad fleet wings. The 

 patriotrick is not a new trick. Dozens of loyal American, French and British 

 firms suffered from it, even before America entered the war. 



We and our customers are victims of it today. We can no longer ig- 

 nore the fact that thousands of druggists and dentists have been told, and 

 are innocently passing along the story, that Pebeco Tooth Paste is an Alien 

 Enemy Product. 



The story is untrue. Its only possible foundation is the fact that the 

 formula for Pebeco was originated years ago in the laboratory of a Ham- 

 burg scientist. 



Pebeco has been made in New York City since 1903. Every share of 

 Lehn & Fink stock and every dollar's worth of bonds are owned by American 

 citizens. 



Sole license for the manufacture of Pebeco has been granted to Lehn 

 & Fink by the United States Federal Trade Commission. 



All the officers and directors of Lehn & Fink are American citizens, 

 and only American capital is used. Lehn & Fink is not subsidized by or con- 

 nected with any other concern, American or Foreign. 



Don't be the dupe of the patriotrickster. 



Pebeco Tooth Paste is for sale by all Druggists
