The powdering; (generally with " Mennen's Borated Talcum) is. as much a part of the bath as the bath itself, t And it's mainly the powder that soothes his frets and Vmakes baby. so sweet and cheerful. v .Think what it must have been to be a baby before the days of Men nen's (the first Borated Talcum). In the last few years, mothers have been learning that what helped make baby sweet and con tenthelped when baby got older. And nowadays many a belle with laughing eyes and an atmosphere , of cheery freshness owes much of both to generous use of Mennen's. To meet these more generous and more' general uses we are even making the sifter top cans : larger and'more generous. Pu t a tin in . every bathroom and every bedroom in your house. Say nothing, and note the cheerful effect on the family's disposition! Out of the hundreds of brands of Talcum Powder two or three may be as good as Mennen's. But ; it is easy to be sure.
