Arm & Hammer Brand Soda

Caption: 

Rheumatic, lank, dyspeptic, lean;
The bad effects are plainly seen,
On those who do themselves the wrong,
Of buying any brand that comes along.
But happy though, the daily life,
Of the bright, contented, plump, housewife,
And happy all who take her stand
To buy the Arm & Hammer Brand.

Comment: 

Lank & lean spinster on the left doesn't use the product, and the contented & plump housewife on the right does. This card resembles a box of Arm & Hammer Brand Soda when folded closed. A foldover with & without card.
