Infant Rasii and Chafing Quickly Healed by use of Sykes Comfort Powder Northampton, Mass. "In my work as a Nurse I find nothing heals rashes, chthng or a sore inflamed skin so quickly as Sykes Comfort Powder. I am sending you a picture of a baby who suffered dreadfully from a baby rash and I used Sykes Comfort Powder with great success after everything else had failed to heal it." Mrs. C. K. Humphries, Nurse, Northampton, Mass. The reason Sykes Comfort Powder is so successful in healing and preventing chafing, scalding, rashes and ekin irritations is because it contains six healing, antiseptic ingredients not found in ordinary talcums.
