Babys Nannie advised me

to use this Talcum Powder

"One day I came home hot · and tired after four strenuous sets of terris-my skin felt hot and prickly all over. Nannie

had just finished Baby's evening toilet, and as I was going in to the bathroom, she offered me baby's tin of Cuticura Talcum. I've never known anything so soothing-it is the finest talcum powder I've ever known-after strenuous exercise I ask for no better pick- me-up than a bath finished off with this talcum. The perfume alone made me love it at once--such a delicate, sweet fragrance."

It is because of its fineness and absolute purity that Caticura Talrum is recommended by doctors and nurses for a baby's sensitive. skin. And this is the reason why women find it a joy to use aften, bathing-or when ever the skin is chafed and, feels tender. No other powder is so satiny smooth-it is like. a cooling balm on a bot skin. And its sweet, refreshing fragrance perfumes the whole body long afterwards.
