DELICATE CREAruREs.-Th is the phrase
applied by His Blackness, the Moor of Venice
to the fair ladies of Italy. 1t was the lovely
complexion Of Desdemona, such radiant
contrast of his own, that won his heart; and
sooth to say, every man of discernmcnt CON
siders fair skin, like sweet voice, Fan ex-
cellent thing in woman Now this is a charm
which can be acquired. There is a healthful
and odoriierous toilet article, known every
wher" as HAGANs MAGNOLIA BALM, which
literally transfgures a cloudy or sallow skin.
sufiusing the discolor ed face. neck, arms and
bosom with soft, perly tinge, and impaIting
to the surface q smoothness and gloss like
that of polished marble. Instead OF cloggng
the pores, like the sticky enamels, or con-
tracing them, and thus obstructing prespira-
tion like the astrngent cosmetics, it cieanses
the skin from all impurities and wonderfully
improves its texture. This peculiarly is
particularly appreciated by our rural bellies,
who find that the courseness and roughness
which country air is apt to engender, are
speedily removed from their faces, hands AMI
arms, by this delightful preparation.
