COMFORT POWDER
FOR THE BABY!

In the case Of infants the care Of the skin
Is Of great Importance.
Scalding from urine, and the resultant
eczema and chatting frequently cause the
most intense pain to the infant, and is more
frequently attributed to collie than to its true
cause. Words can hardly describe the in
slant and great relief resulting from the use
OF COMFORT POWDER. Baby Powders are
usually made of powdered rice or starch, and
a few hours after being applied they swell
aud ferment. and the trouble Is increased In
stead of relieved.
If the child's skin is already red and
eczematous, first apply COMFORT POWDER
freely, and in an hour or two wash with
warm water and q fine, pure soap. Dry
thoroughly by patting gently with soft
cloth. Then apply the COMFORT POWDER
TWO or three times.
Avoid washing as much as possible consist
ent with cleanliness, but keep the skin dry
and well powdered
When the skin is healthy. the constant
use OF COMFORT POWDER will preserve 1t
and add greatly to the comfort Of the child.
