Much of the chafing of children under the joints where the skin lies in folds is due to the use of Soap containing too much alkali. In the Ivory Soap there is no excess of alkali, so it can be used in the nursery with the most satisfactory results. When applying it, rub a wet cloth upon the Soap, then wash tenderly, but thoroughly, and rinse perfectly, especially the folds of flesh, with clear water, and dry with equal care.
Prof. Leeds, of the Stevens Institute of Technology, says: "The Ivory Soap, while strongly cleansing, leaves the skin soft and pleasant to the touch."
If your grocer does not keep the Ivory Soap, send six two-cent stamps, to pay the postage, to Procter & Gamble, Cincinnati, and they will send you free a large cake of Ivory Soap.
