FOR THE 1 MAN IN 7 WHO SHAVES EVERY DAY

A Special Shave Cream-It's Not a Soap, Needs No Brush!

Dailyshaving leaves many men's faces raw and sensitive. Yet, because of his business and social status, one out of every 7 men must shave every day.

To meet this condition, Williams has now developed GLIDER-a spe- cial cream for daily shavers. With no soap base, it's a complete departure from ordinary slave creams. No brush. Nolather. Notsticky or greasy.

A superabundance of moisture is contained in this rich cream. It won't dry on your face, Applied with the fingers, it quickly softens each whisker. A protective layer is formed over which your razor glides. Off comes each hair at the base without scraping. Like a cold cream, Glider helps keep your skin smooth all day. Glider is the result of nearly 100 years' experience in making fine shaving preparations.
