Women Be Careful

Your physician will tell you that
antiseptics containing carbolic acid,
bi-chloride and other forms Of mer-
curry are very dangerous when used
for feminine hygiene, causing scar
tissue and frequently necessitating
serious surgical operations; while
ordinary preparations are usually
ineffective and disappointing.
After many years of research, an
eminent physician devised a pre-
scription especially for intimate
feminine hygiene. After having used
it exclusively in private practice
for over 18 years with remarkable
success, he now makes this pre-
scription available to every woman.
1t is known as "Femite."
