that . . . and You, Darling
n
THIS was the beautiful hour of triumph for a woman who took from life a "double brush-off," as Broadway puts it — and came back.
Through the warm dark she could see her name glowing in lights ... a rising star at 27. Holding her close was the man she loved and was going to marry.
"Darling, darling," she whispered, "It's all too wonderful to be believed! Just think, Jim, only a year ago I was broke and unknown". . . and patting his arm, "and unloved, too."
She never spared herself the truth. Only a year ago Smedley, the producer who was starring her now, left orders that she was not to be admitted to his offices again, "Sure, she may have talent . . . but she's got something else, too!" he said flatly.
And Jim who now held her so tenderly had once publicly declared, after dancing with her, that she was simply impossible. And, like Smedley, he explained why.
Luckily the shocking truth got back to her — and she did something about it. * Later she actually forced herself into Smedley's office and read the part so beautifully that she got it. Then she trapped Jim into a date which showed him that his first estimate of her was wrong . . . that she could be completely desirable.
Two Strikes Against You
Sometimes fate hangs on the thinnest of threads. Habits and personality are weighed against ability.
Make up your mind to one thing, however: if you have halitosis (bad breath)* your good points can be lost sight of before this bad one. And, unfortunately, if you are found guilty only once, you may be under suspicion always.
Any one — you included — might have halitosis at this very moment without realizing it. So you may offend needlessly.
Since you do not know, isn't it just common sense to be always on guard?
Why not let Listerine Antiseptic look after your breath? Why not get in the habit of using this amazing antiseptic every night and morning and between business and social appointments at which you wish to appear at your best?
Be At Your Best
Fortunately for you, while sometimes systemic, most cases of bad breath, according to some authorities, are simply due to bacterial fermentation of tiny food particles in the mouth. Listerine quickly halts such fermentation and overcomes the odors which it causes. Your breath becomes sweeter, fresheV, purer, less likely to offend.
Always bear in mind that people who get places and go places after they get there are usually the ones who are careful about such things as their breath. Lambert Pharmacal Co., St. Louis, Mo.
