PLAN No. 535. A FIRST-CLASS FOOT POWDER
The third girl chose a foot powder to work upon, the formula being as follows:
Finely powdered talc, 60 ounces; boric acid, 30 ounces; salicylic acid, 1 ounce; powdered alum, 1 ounce. Mix well, and scent as desired. The drug stores of the city told her they would take all of this she could make, as it was better and cheaper than powder widely advertised, and in the following six months her profits amounted to $287.
