Does
this make sense on certain days? Gals in-the-know take
certain days in their stride, but - "fierce
fun" doesn't make sense. Why jolt your innards?
(There's always the merry-go-round!) Choosing milder
amusements is playing safe. Like choosing Kotex. You
see, you get extra protection from that exclusive
safety center of Kotex. And that comfortable Kotex
Wonderform Belt lets you bend freely because it's
elastic - snug-fitting - non-binding. For confidence
that's positively supersonic, try Kotex and Kotex
belts!

A
THREAT TO LOVELINESS
HOW
MANY GERMS ON YOUR SCALP RIGHT NOW?
As
a precaution against infectious dandruff make Listerine
part of regular hair care. It's getting to be a
delightful "must" with countless fastidious
women. And for a very good reason. Anyone can catch
infectious dandruff. Thousands do, often without being
aware of it. Those little telltale flakes on hair or
dress may be a warning!
Why
not be on your guard against an infected scalp and its
ugly flakes and scales that can mar the shining beauty
of your hair? Try the delightful Listerine
"bath" along with every shampoo. It kills
millions of the dreaded "bottle bacillus"
germs that many dermatologists point to as a causative
agent of this distressing condition.
Remember,
Listerine is the same safe, reliable many-purpose
antiseptic that has been a household stand-by for 3
generations. Made by pioneers in Oral Hygiene and proved
effective in more than 60 years of day-in day-out use!
PS.
While you're about it, as a precaution against
infection, wash combs and brushes....then douse
thoroughly with Listerine to kill lurking "bottle
bacillus".

THE
PAINS OF RHEUMATISM GONE!
Rheumatic
pain is often caused by impurities which are allowed to
collect in the system instead of being regularly
expelled. Ordinary laxatives cannot always clear the
system effectively because they act in only one way.
Kruschen acts in two ways - aperient and duretic -
flushing away the pain-causing impurities through both
natural channels.
Mrs.
E.L.M. writes: "I'm nearly 80 and have never had a
headache or rheumatic pain since I started taking
Kruschen over 60 years ago. My doctor says I'm in
wonderful condition for my age. A lot of credit is due
to Kruschen."

 Jacinth
was miserable....so miserable she didn't know what to
do. Only six weeks ago they'd moved into their very own
home - the dream house they'd hunted for so long. Neat
and complete, twinkling with fresh paint and new
furniture.
And
now, so soon, something had gone dreadfully wrong. Last
night they'd had an awful quarrel because Derek had
taken to coming home later and later from work - almost
as if he didn't want to come home. Why, he'd even said
he wished they were still living with her parents....how
could he....?
The
telephone! Perhaps that was him now...."Oh, it's
you, Mother....Oh Mummy, I'm so unhappy....I didn't want
to tell you, but I just can't help it...." Jacinth
sobbed out her story.
"There,
there, my pet....I don't think it's anything really
serious. But, darling, I did notice when I came to tea
on Wednesday that your house wasn't as fresh and sweet
as it should be. Men notice these things, you know, even
if they don't realize it....Perhaps Derek....Listen,
I'll tell you what we'll do...."
That
afternoon, Jacinth and her mother worked hard. Her
mother had brought a bottle of ZAL disinfectant, and
they put some in the sink, and the drains, and in the
water they washed the paint and floors with.
"You
see, darling," said her mother, "a fresh house
with fresh paint and new furniture won't stay fresh and
smell sweet without ZAL. Germs spread quickly and that
means smells. ZAL's so purifying - it's a wonderful
disinfectant and it kills germs at once and leaves the
scent of real pines all over the house. I always use ZAL
- haven't you noticed? I'll leave you the bottle."
A
few days later, Derek, who was always home early now,
remarked:
"I
can't think why I said I'd like to be back at your
mother's darling. She's a dear, and it was fun being
there, but there's nothing like having one's own home to
come back to - and you do keep it so fresh and
lovely."
Jacinth
just kissed him, smiled to herself, and glanced towards
the kitchen, where ZAL had a proud position on the
shelf.

INSECURITY
IS WOMAN'S GREATEST ENEMY |
|
|
 |
Every
woman has a natural right to security and opportunities
for happiness for herself and her children. But this
Australian ideal has never been in greater danger than
it is today. The forces of international Communism aim
to destroy our security and our freedom. If we are not
strong enough as a nation to resist their attempts, the
day may come when family life as we know it will be a
thing of the past in Australia.
The
woman of Australia look to their men to keep this
country secure. Fit men of military age, who would
immediately volunteer if a world war were to come
overnight, have an opportunity to train now in their
spare time by joining The Citizen Military Forces. It
involves only 14 days' camp each year plus some
nighttime training parades - a small price to pay for
security.
Australia
asks you to give your support and encouragement to your
husband, your son, your fiancé, to any man of military
age who is prepared to give up some of his leisure to
train in the C.M.F. He is proving himself a loyal
Australian.

 "YOU'RE
NOT SUPPOSED TO ENJOY THIS RIDE, MOM!"
BABY:
This may not be any joy ride for you, Mom - now that
you're being me for a day!
MOM:
Joy ride! I should say it isn't! Wriggling around in
these straps makes my skin so uncomfortable I could
howl!
BABY:
I hoped you'd get to see it my way, Mom! Now maybe you
see why you ought to keep my skin protected with
Johnson's Baby Oil and Johnson's Baby Powder!
MOM:
Write your own ticket, lamb! But tell me now, why do you
need both?
BABY:
A cinch, Mommie. Pure, gentle Johnson's Baby Oil to
smooth me over after my bath. And more of the same at
diaper changes, to help prevent what my doctor calls
"urine irritation". Other times, Mom, lots of
soft, soothing sprinkles of Johnson's Baby Powder, to
chase chafes and prickles and keep me purring!
MOM:
Angel, I've been an awful flat tire about this! Just
step on the gas and let's be on our way to the nearest
headquarters for Johnson's!

 "THE
MAN WHO GETS ME WILL BE LUCKY!"
"Mother
says some women spend so much time on a house they don't
have time to live in it.
"So
she's teaching me a few easy house-keeping tricks -
early!
"Like
this quick shine-up stunt with O-Cedar All Purpose
Polish.
"Did
you know that just a few drops on a cloth will clean and
polish and protect your furniture against drying out?
All at the same time?
"And
you don't have to keep at it either. One good O-Cedar
polishing lasts for weeks and weeks.
"Between
times I use mother's speed dusting trick. A few drops of
O-Cedar Polish on a clean cloth will pick up dust, and
shine up a table top - quicker than you can say O-Cedar!
"Yep!
The man who gets me will be luck! But no luckier than
lots of husbands are now. Because Mother says more wives
use O-Cedar All-Purpose Polish than any other
brand!"
