Are You
Really Clean?

Do you know there is a Slight
acrid odor about many adolescent
girls and women that makes them
offensive to even their own family?
This is a natural odor from body
excretions but it should not be fol-
Grated by any modern girl or wo-
man.
A daily FEMISAN sanitary wash
will give relief from this unpleas-
ant trouble. A trouble of which
you may be wholly unconscious, but
your friends and relatives talk be-
hind your back. The healing, sooth-
ing qualities of FEMISAN makes
this antiseptic powder very useful
in treating unpleasant discharges

dainty feminine hygiene powder
