The Message Every Morning Brings

"The pain is really gone!"

"That is what will astonish you most the first time you use Sloan's Liniment - the rapidity with which it brings relief.

"You apply Sloan's to the sore spot or the aching muscle. Immediately you feel a comforting glow - a sensation of tingling, penetrating warmth.

"For a minute you wonder if this warmth has made you forget the pain. Then suddenly you realize that the pain itself has gone. Not just for the moment, but gone completely."

Ad for Sloan's Liniment, from 1923.

"Mother, you're looking younger every day!"

"The secret of restoring and retaining a youthful complexion lies chiefly in the faithful and well-directed use of the proper sorts of face creams. The constant employment of creams by actresses in removing make-up is largely responsible for the clearness and smoothness of their skins."

"American colonial charm is here united with the modern feeling for space and color. The curtains are of flowered chintz, with under-curtains of dotted swiss or net. Crinkled crepe bed covers.

The four-poster beds are by Simmons, the Alden design, in dull ebony with panel borders in stippled gold and antique gold bands on posts. Supplied also in walnut or brown mahogany, warm ivory and colors."
