Just to make conversation, his pediatrician asked six-year-old Johnny, who watched a good many TV ads, “Johnny, if you found a couple of dollars and had to spend them, what would you buy?”

“A box of Tampax,” Johnny replied without hesitation.

“Tampax?” said the doctor. “What would you do with that?”

“Well,” said Johnny, “I do not know exactly, but it’s sure worth two dollars. With Tampax, it says on TV, you can go swimming, go horseback riding, and also go skating, any time you want to!”
