In place of coarse, rustic flushed face, she had
soft ruby complexion of almost marble smooth

cause of SO great change, she plainly told them
that she used the Circassian Balm, and con-
sidered it an invaluable acquisition to any Ladys

improve their personal appearance an hundred

herself is simple, yet unsurpassed in its efficacy
