gan's Magnolia Balm was brought out as Q pure

present il has been continually rising in public
estimation as the safest and most unexceptiona-
BILE preparation Of its class. Instead Of produc-
ing an artificial, metallic surface like the deadly
enamels or willing the enticle like the poison
Gus fluids sold under various names rs "beauti-
fers, it keeps the skin as soft as velvet, renders
it rs smooth and glossy as satin and imparts to
it that delicate rosy tinge which is the beau
ideal of complexional loveliness. This exqui-
site chromatic effect is not transient By APP
plying the Balm daily it may be prolonged from
youth TO age. A lady who purchased the first
bottle of the article nineteen years ago, writes

been and she attributes its beauty solely to
the daily use of Hagan's Magnolia Balm.
