Item 2:  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
           Results of Operations

Results of Operations

Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 1997 were $3.6 million,
compared to $3.5 million for the comparable period of 1996.  Sales for 1997
benefitted from sales of products under the Company's sales and marketing
agreements which include:  Humibid GC, a nonprescription formulation of the
Rx drug, Humibid; Derifil, an internal deodorant; and Capsaicin, a generic
version of Zostrix  cream.  Net sales for these brands totaled $394 
thousand, an increase of $129 thousand over the three months ending March
31, 1996.  Net sales of the Company's remaining brands decreased a net $98
thousand compared to the three months ended March 31, 1996, principally as
the result of decreased sales of Garfield, which declined $157 thousand.
The sales decline of these remaining brands is due to continued competition
and trade destocking pressures.

Cost of goods sold for the three months ending March 31,1997 was $1.6 
million compared to $1.9 million in the respective 1996 period, representing
45% and 52% of net sales in their respective periods.  The decrease in the
cost of goods sold, as a percentage of sales for the three months ended
March 31, 1997, is a result of a decrease in returns and allowances, along 
with the change in mix-of-products sold.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three-month period of
1997 was $1.6 million, an increase of $457 thousand compared to the
respective 1996 period. The increase for the three months ended March 31,
1997 is primarily due to an increase in marketing costs associated with
the products under the Company's sales and marketing agreements.  Selling,
general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of sales, may fluctuate
quarter to quarter based upon the timing of these expenditures and the level
of sales within a quarter.

Interest expense, including finance cost amortization, was $5 thousand for
the first quarter of 1997, compared to $28 thousand for the prior year
period.  The decrease for 1997 is due to lower outstanding debt.  There was
no bank debt outstanding at March 31, 1997. Bank debt outstanding at March
31, 1996 was $1.9 million.

The Company, at December 31, 1996, had a net operating loss carryforward for
federal income tax purposes of approximately $6.8 million which may be used
to offset future taxable income.  These loss carryforwards expire in the
years 2005 through 2008.  The Company recognized $26 thousand in tax expense
for the first quarter of 1997.  The effective tax rate exceeds the statutory
federal tax rate primarily as a result of the amortization of product lines
and trade names which is not deductible for tax purposes.  The Company has
net deferred tax assets of $1.0 million in its condensed consolidated
balance sheet as of March 31, 1997, which is primarily made up of two items,
net operating loss carryforwards and future deductible expenses.

For the first quarter ended March 31, 1997, the Company had net income of
$3 thousand or $0.00 per share compared to a net income of $37 thousand or
$0.01 per share for the first quarter ended March 31, 1996.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 31, 1997, the Company had working capital of $7.4 million.  Working
capital was provided by its operations and may also be provided by the 
periodic use of its revolving credit facility.  The revolving credit
facility has a maximum borrowing limit of $3.0 million and terminates on 
June 30, 1998, unless extended.  At March 31, 1997, the Company had no
amount outstanding under the revolving credit facility.  The amount of
borrowing, if any, and the subsequent repayments under the facility depends
on the seasonality of the Company's sales, marketing plans and profits.
Also, extended payment date terms consistent with standard industry practice,
which are offered to the Company's customers under marketing programs,
create seasonal changes in the Company's cash flow.  These extended payment
programs are directly related to the seasonal promotion of the Company's
cough and cold brands.

All outstanding debt under the term loan was paid on January 23, 1997, and
the Company has no bank debt outstanding, a reduction of $1.9 million since
March 31, 1996.

As of March 31, 1997, the Company's primary cash requirements are for its
normal operating activities.  The Company's strategic focus in the year
ahead is to grow Menley & James by building a brand-name health care 
products business.  The Company's strategy is to develop a new product
or revitalize an existing brand, which will receive marketing funds from 
the cash flow generated from other products, and to purchase a new brand or
company, preferably in the Nutraceutical vitamin and herb supplement market.
Management believes that cash flow from operations and current and future
borrowing capacity will be sufficient to fund the Company's operating and
capital requirements for the foreseeable future.
