Modern Screen IF YOU COULD SEE GERMS MOTHER If you could see these deadly disease carriers how careful you would be about what products you use on your baby! How quickly you would refuse unsterilized baby powderl But because you cannot see the germs in baby powders, your only safe course is to use Laco — the sterilized baby powder. Laco cannot contain germs. It has been sterilized right in the sealed container for 6 hours. This special process makes it safe for your baby — and it makes a finer, more velvety powder. Laco contains special soothing ingredients that are wonderful for skin disorders. Use it for urine scald, eczema, bites, rashes, sunburn, stings. All Laco products are as fine as science can make them. Always use Laco Castile Soap — Laco Castile Shampoo— at all 10 cent toilet goods counters. Laco Sterilized Baby Powder comes in IOC and 25^ sizes. If you do not find it send four cents for generous trial can. LOCKWOOD BRACKETT CO. Dept.M-7,Boston, Mass. Enclosed is in stamps for a generous trial can of Laco Sterilized Baby Powder. Name , Street City I buy toilet goods at_ Address ^State LOSE FAT This Right Way Modern science has found that excess fat is largely due to a scanty gland secretion. Too much food which should supply fuel and energy goes to piled-up fat. Since this discovery, doctors the world over are feeding this lacking factor. The results are seen in every circle. Excess fat has been disap* pearing fast. Millions have gained slender figures, new youth and vigor, in this right way. They have done it without starvation, by combating the cause. Marmola prescription tablets present this modern method in a form convenient and cheap. They are prepared by a medical laboratory, famous the world over. People have used them for 24 years — millions of boxes of them. Now multitudes of people show and tell the results. Some of your friends are among them. If your figure is abnormal, your vigor below par, do what these people have done. Take Marmola tablets — four a day until conditions are corrected. Don't starve yourself. Don't use methods which are futile. Do the right thing now. All druggists supply Marmola. A book in each box gives the formula and explains the amazing results. Go start now. You do yourself a vast injustice by remaining overeat.
