TRANSFORMING THE CoMpLExIoN.-The
transformations produced by Hagan's Mag
nolia Balm are quite as astonishing as any
scene on the stage of a theatre. That IA
nous beautifier, transmutes a sallow, peeky
looking complexio into one in which the
lily and the rose Vie for admiration, and inn
parts to dry, harsh skin, the sottness of
perfect loneliness. Tan and freckles, which
country air and sunlight are pretty sure to
produce, in spite of parasols and sundowns,
are completely obliterated by it; while it has
perfectly magical effect in banishing undue
redness, blotches and pimples from the skin.
When the lady who has used it to remedy her
complexional defects looks in the mirror, she
is equally astounded and grati6ed at the i'm
provements in her appearance. Every blem-
ish has disappeared; her neck, arms and
bosom, now rival in wilderness the snowy col
lar which encircles her throat, her cheek
mantles with peach-like bloom, and she is
ready to invoke blessing on the inventor of
the article which has wrought such delight
