Hygiene

solves a problem which has always been a cause

of distress to womankind. No wonder that wherever. “CAMELIA” is introduced it is permanently adopted!, "CAMELIA" is a new idea which entirely supersedes all: other forms of sanitary pads."

Your Doctor will Endorse this! Doctors and Nurses recommend "CAMELIA" for its many

hygienic advantages::---

1. ^ "CAMELIA" supersedes makeshift methods with great

advantage to health and comfort,

2. "CAMELIA" is aseptic. It is made of sterilised materials, under absolutely hygienic conditions, and is packed in a dustproof, sealed box.

3. "CAMELIA" absorbs all surface moisture-a frequent

source of bacterial infection.

4. "CAMELIA" is deodorising it absorbs odour. 5. "CAMELIA" gives security, confidence, freedom from

anxiety.

6. "CAMELIA" is cheap enough to throw away and can be instantly disposed of in the simplest and most hygienic manner possible. No laundering. “CAMELIA" is, in fact,
