A PERFECT HAND.
How Its Appearance Became Familiar
to the Public.

The story of how probably the
most perfect feminine hand in Ameri-

rather interesting.
AS the story goes the possessor Of
the hand was with some friends in a

talking. held up a piece of candy

ing letter from someone inquiring
as to who wrote the Postum and

said to his wife, I'VE receive SO
many inquiries of this kind, that 1t is
evident some people are curious
to know, suppose we let the advertis-
Using department have that picture
of your hand to print and name it "A
Helping Hand" (Mrs. Post has as
sisted him in preparation OF some of
the most famous advertisements)
There was natural shrinking
from the publicity. but with an agree
ment that no name would accompany
the picture its use was granted.
The case was presented in the light
of extending welcoming hand to the
friends of Postum and Grape Nuts,
so the picture appeared on the back
covers OF many of the January and
February magazines and became
known to millions of people.
Many artists have commented upon
1t as probably the most perfect hand |
In the world.
The advertising dept. of the Post
