I've been writing this Mennen Column for twelve years—with an average of thirty thou- sand miles a year in Pullmans on the side. I'm not quitting, but I'm not too big to call for help.

It will take a smarter writer than I am to add to the appreciation of a shaver who, after | years of suffering, has knowr, the deep, sooth- | ing joy of Mennen dermutation.
