But today . . . the modern woman meets it with a smile. Science has supplanted the uncertainty of the old-time sanitary pad with protection that is absolute. ~ You wear your filmiest frocks, your summery things in confidence. You motor for hours, youdance, youdine; you come in contact with others without a second thought.

And that means great pxol:d!on 1t is as easily disposed of as a picce of tissue —ending an old-time embarrassment. It is deodorized. And that prevents danger of offense. You get it at any department store or drug store, just by saying “Kotex.” And that banishes the embarrassment of asking for a “sanitary pad.” 8 in every 10 women in the better walks of life have adopted it. Which proves its benefits, It will mean much to you in health, in daintiness and pro- tection.
