“EAU de SUEZ” - MIRACLE DENTAL CARE -
OR
“YOU SHOULD HAVE GARGLED THAT "SWEET WATER" DAILY”

 

In this age of scientific discovery, when everything is done to make life as easy and pleasant as possible, when the use of anesthetics to alleviate pain has been carried to an extent undreamed of by our ancestors, it is surely time a remedy should be found for one of the most terrible evils our civilization is subject to – namely, the decay of the teeth and consequent ill-health of the whole body.

Eau de Suez seems to realize the fables of the bottled genie in the “Arabian Nights”, so magical and mighty are its powers. It is sold in three different preparations, distinguished by a yellow, green and red thread. It is recommended that persons suffering from acute toothache to use the yellow thread, which will instantly stop the most violent pain. Those who suffer from periodical attacks of toothache, decayed teeth, sensitive gums, or other diseases of the mouth, should use the green thread daily, mixing ten or twelve drops in half a tumbler of water, and washing the mouth night and morning; they will thus preserve their teeth white and sound, keep the gums in healthy condition, the breath sweet, and, in fact, set disease and decay at defiance. The red thread is intended for children, and those fortunate persons who possess sound teeth and healthy gums, and will prevent them from ever becoming painful or diseased.

Eau de Suez is perfectly harmless and will, in a few years, put an end to false teeth, extraction, and all the tortures dentists inflict on their unhappy victims.

We also recommend the use of our Orange Tooth Paste for the whitening and cleansing of black, yellow or discoloured teeth and also the use our soft Suez toothbrush made from badger hair.

The use of Eau de Suez will secure a child from croup, angina and toothache, and as a vaccine against smallpox, colds and sore throats.
