icles. They are the patented
Cosmeon articles and are bet
ter than silver for several
reasons. They are lighter.
They never tarnish. They are
constructed as no silver goods
ever were. They cost less
than one-fourth as much as
silver. They are made for
people, who are fastidious
about their toilets-for those
who want the very best that
money will buy, as well as for
those who must count the
cost. 1t sounds strange, but
a Cosmeon hair brush is i'm
measurably better than a
silver brush costing ten dol
lars. Mind you-not Just as
good"-better, better because
it is Just as pretty, because
the bristles are just as good,
because it will last longer,
brush better, keep cleaner and
will always retain its clear
bright lustre without tarnish-
ing. You can't keep any brush
clean if it has a wooden bristlt
block. A solid gold back
with diamond setting, can
keep the water and oil anC
dirt out of the wood. There
a crevice between the meta
and the wood and even con
slant care can't keep it fire,
from dirt. The CosmeoI
brushes are made of two sole
plates of beautiful white Alu
minum. The best bristle
that money will buy are draw
through the front plate into
backing of waterproof cement
You can't force water in if you
try. You can't soak it in. TIL,
brush is practically one solic
piece. The bristles are ar
ranged in pointed tufts tn

in each tuft. This allows then
to penetrate easily to tn
scalp. The bristles need no
be especially stiff to do this
Those who like the feeling q
a stiff brush will like the Cos
) neon brushes even better. TIL
greatest claim for the Cosmeo
brush is its perfect cleanliness
There is no other really cleal
! brush. That is so true that
will bear telling a number c
times. There is nothing les
| desirable than dirt. TIL
