smooth submanifold contained in a subvariety of same dimension is real analytic (Theorem)

This theorem seems to usually be attributed to Malgrange in literature as it appeared in his book[1].

Theorem 1 (Malgrange)   Suppose $M \subset {\mathbb{R}}^N$ is a connected smooth ($C^\infty$ ) submanifold and $V \subset {\mathbb{R}}^N$ is a real analytic subvariety of the same dimension as $M$ , such that $M \subset V$ . Then $M$ is a real analytic submanifold.

The condition that $M$ is smooth cannot be relaxed to $C^k$ for $k < \infty$ . For example, note that in ${\mathbb{R}}^2$ , the subvariety $y^3 - x^8 = 0$ , which is the graph of the $C^1$ function $y = \lvert x \rvert^{\frac{8}{3}}$ , is not a real analytic submanifold.
