EVERY LADY
OUGHT TO KNOW.

There exists a means OF Sc
curing a soft and brilliant
Complexion, no matter how
}, poor it may naturally be.
Hagan's Magnolia Balm is a
delicate and harmless artis
Gle, which instantly removes
Freckles, Tan, Redness.
ROughness, Eruptions, Vul-
gar FL ushings, ETC., etc. SO
delicate and natural are it's
effects that it's use is not
suspected by anybody.
No lady has the right to
present a disfigured face in
society when the Magnolia
Balm is sold by all druggists
for IS cents.
