How men do admire them—slim, deft fingers, a graceful arm, a lov cly white satiny skin! And what care women lavish on their precious skin—with time-consum- ing “treatments” and wonder-working *“complexion” soaps. Yet how many, many times they faik— because their soap was harsh, or because they never thought of caring for their hands except at night and morning. How Southern women protect hands It was the lovely Southcrn women, wisest of all American women in the arts of beaury, who first realized the importance of care a// throngh the day. Today thousands of well-born Southern women attend to home work, motor, enjoy their modern outdoor sports—and yet have velvet skins. And this is how they do it: After every task, they rinse their hands in mild pure suds of Octagon Toilet Soap. You cn't prevent soiling.
