the Question

of the shower (or tub)

~The Tempex method of sanitary protection brings new comfort and satisfaction to

the woman who tubs o showers on “those days” o the month.

Physical training authorities have pretty well disposed of the idea that all women should avoid baths during those’ ‘certain days”

of the month. In other words,

great numbers of women take

showers (or tub baths) as usual,

and the Tampax method is right in Tine with “this practice, for Tampax, being worn internally, need not be removed in shower or tub. You can also go in swimming with it—no embarrass-

ment, no offense to anyone!

Perfected by a doctor on the principle of infernal absorption, Tampax is made of pure surgical cotton compressed in dainty white applicators for neat and efficient

r

f

insertion. You cannot feel the Tampax when it is in place. No sanitary deodorant is needed. Quick to change. Easy disposal. + + » Join the millions of housewives, war workers, students, secretaries, etc., who have abandoned belts, pins and external pads in favor of Tampax. . . . Rgmember: a whole month's average supply can be carried in your purse, while the “economy box’ holds 4 times this quantity. Tampax is sold at drug stores and notion counters and it comes in 3 absorbency-sizes (Regular, Super, Junior) to suit individual needs. Tampax Incorporated, Palmer, Mass.
