Here is a "personally conducted excursion"
of the kind that occurs daily in millions of
homes.
Route: Up the stairway and along the hall to the
            bathroom.
Time:  10.00 a.m. or thereabouts.
Equipment:  A couple of soft towels, a sponge, a wash
                    cloth and a cake of Ivory Soap.
On arrival: Fill the bathtub a little less than half full
                  of warm-not hot-water. Put baby in
the bath. Moisten the wash cloth and apply soap, first to the face and neck,then to the arms, next
to the body, and last, to the legs and feet, Fill the sponge with water from the tub and squeeze it
over the face, arms, body and legs, repeating this until all dirt and soap are removed. Dry by
"patting"-not rubbing-with the towels.
The only soap that is worthy of comparison with Ivory is genuine, unadulterated, white Castile
Soap. It is on sale in very few stores. Its priceis from 25 to 40 cents a pound. The "Castile"
Soap, which is sold at 20 cents a pound or less, is almost invariably a cheap imitation of a
meritorious article. But even genuine Castile Soap, if you can get it, (and the chances are that
you cannot) is no better than, and not as pure as, Ivory Soap. And it costs about three times as
much.
