THE WAY TO BEAUTY
Dainty Women Have Found
Lehn & Fink's Rivers
Talcum a Valuable Aid
to Personal Attract
iVenesS

Every woman who has the power to
fasCinate men and women about her
owes that power to some subtle quality
not easily understood by other women.
There is no more effective charm than
that of personal daintinesS- This means
more than perfect cleanliness and the
proper wearing of ones clothes. It
means also a subtle, alluring sweetness
that holds enthralled all who come near
her. Such is the result from using Lehn
& Ffnk's Rivers Talcum Its fragrance
is so subtle and exquisite and its beau
tifying effect upon the skin so pleasing
that attractive women everywhere de-
pend upon its daily use to keep them
dainty.
Lehn & Finks Rivers TaIcum is pre-
ferred because of its unusual texture
and purity as well as its fascinating
OdOr. Unlike most talcum powders, it
contains no boracic acid nor injurious
lime-and hence will soothe and soften
the most delicate skin.
