Statistics prove that tbe men
and women of to-dav iar exceed
tbeir ancestors ia health, clean
liness and sweetness. Physical
culture is practiced br so many
in tbeir own homes, that nature
works like e well oiled machine.
Outdoor exercise, where practic
•Mft ,*• indulged in frequently.
Rubbing ana bqthing makes
them clean, and white odorless
powder is dusted on the body or
clothiag to prevent any an pleas-,
ant odora which arise from the
body. It is a disagreeable com
bination to ose perfumes to try
to conceal perspiration or other
odora, so a well known and re
putable firm has placed this
powder on the market. Women
of refinement esc it sftet the
bath or when changing garments,
and the result is that women
ware sever so sweet as to-day,
It Is but natural that their dispo
sition should be brighter for they
aye not in constant Iter tbeir
acquaintances will discover that
they are afflicted with bodily
odora and thus shun tbeir so
ciety. Men too, are happier,
for whet lady cares to associate
with a man whose toilet seems
to be neglected.
No nutter bow frequently one
bathes, tbe odora are sure to
arise, unless this powder has
been dusted on the clothing or
body. Refined people every

for tbe increase In health, cleaa
