Every day and every night, too. for that matter. Danny has at least one exciting experience. Usually he has more than one. So Danny ought to know all about excitement.

But all these same little people would tell you that other settlements were noth- ini, compared with the excitement I'm going to tell you about.

 DECAUSE one woman told an- ID other, and because doctors and nurses SO urged, millions of women are discarding old-time sanitary ways for the new way called Kotex. I First, you discard Kotex as 7 easily as tissue. No laundry, no embarrassment.
 Five times as absorbent as ordi- nary cotton pads, it enables one to wear sheerest frocks and gowns without slightest fear of embarrass- ment. Also deodorizes, thus ending oN danger of offending.
 Eight in every 10 better class women employ it. Once you use it you'll never again dare the uncer- tainty of old ways.
 Obtain at any store simply by saying "KOTEX." Box of l2 costs only a few cents. Be sure you get the genuine. Only Kotex itself is like" kotex.
