You smell like shit, Susan. Take a shower.

But be sure to use the LIFEBUOY Health Soap! It's the only thing that works on your powerful "BO" (body odor). My Grandma NEVER smelled like shit like you, and she used LIFEBUOY Health Soap.

And the corner note: "men Also feel Nice when clean".

"Over the years I got to be quite a connoisseur of soap. My personal preference was for Lux, but I found Palmolive had a nice, piquant after-dinner flavor - heady, but with just a touch of mellow smoothness. Lifebuoy, on the other hand..."

Imagine the joy when they first gained access to soap.
