"THAT'S the FINEST
SHAVE I Ever Had"
No wonder this gentleman is pleased. He has fast finished hit first shave with Williams-and what a delightful revelation It has been to him!
Men everywhero who use Williams feel the same way. They all say they have never used a slaving cream that feels so good on the face; that soaks the beard so thoroughly; that makes shaving so clean, close and comfortable.

SHAVING CRE. A M
Of course there's a reason for all this. A century of experience, a vast background of knowledge, is behind every tube of Williams Shaving Cream. Only the finest ingredients are used. Willams lather in rich, thick, moist, mellow. It is lather for the skin as well on the bearch. Williams is canonical too-a Hulo makes a lot of father. Try la yourself.
