Guard Against
Infection
The natural inclin
ation of most people
is to belittle the dan
gers lurking in minor
flesh-exposing injuries.
Neglect to take, pre
cautionary measures against infection of
wounds is most often due to the absence of
reliable antiseptics. Always have ready for
every emergency a bottle of
QucoJodme
f fl (VAN DYKE)
A powerful, non-poisonous antiseptic, which
thoroughly cleanses the parts affected. (It destroys
the harmful germs and prevents complications. The
removal of poisonous ingredients through a special
process or preparation gives Glyco-Iodine a deeper
penetrative power ana prolonged
antiseptic action.
Glyco-Iodine isespecially pleas
ing because it is quickly absorbed,
leaving no permanent stain. .It
never stains nor injures linens.
A bottle from your druggist
today is the advance-guard against
serious results from your next ac
cident. Two sizes: 4 w. $1.00; .2 or.
60 cents.
Each bottle hermetically sealed,
assuring 'full strength, full quantity
always.
