Just a Pretty Stranger —in her ovfn Home Tovfn
No girl need risk popularity! MUM every day prevents underarm odor— guards charm!
PEG couldn't help being envious— they were having such fun, and she was so lonely. So many girls who weren't as pretty as Peg, had dates. "I'll leave this old town, then I'll be popular," thought Peg. But Peg, others will neglect you wherever you go— if you neglect underarm odor.
Like Peg, we seldom know when we are guilty of underarm odor. How much wiser to play safe— each day— with Mum! Don't rely on a bath alone to guard your charm. A bath removes past perspiration, but Mum prevents future odor.
Wherever there is social life, you will find popular girls use Mum. And Tmre
use Mum than any other deodorant.
MUM SAVES TIME! Just 30 seconds, and underarms are fresh all day.
MUM SAVES CLOTHESI The American Laundry Institute Seal tells you Mum won't harm any fabric. Safe for skin, too —even after underarm shaving!
MUM SAVES CHARM! Mum makes
odor impossible— not by attempting to prevent perspiration— but by neutralizing the odor before it starts. Get Mum at your druggist's today. More women (and more men) make a habit of Mum because Mum keeps you "in right" everywhere— with everyone!
For Sanitary Napkins, Too—
No need to worry about Sanitary Napkins if you remember Mum will keep you fresh. Mum is so safe ...so gentle . . . thousands use it this way!
