Cosmcon articles and are bet
ter than silver for several
reasons They are lighter
They never tarnish. They are
constructed a. no silver goods
ever were. They cost less
than onc-fourth as much as
silver. They are made for
people, who are fastldlous
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
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 bristle
block. A solid gold back,
with diamond setting, cant
keep the water and oil and
dirt out Of the wood. There's
a crevice between the metal
and the wood and even con-
slant care can't keep it free
from dirt. The Cosmeon
brushes are made of two solid
| plates Of beautiful white Alu-
minum. The best bristles
that money will buy are drawn
through the front plate into a
backing Of waterproof cement.
You can't force water in if you
try. You can't soak it in. The
brush is practically one solid
piece. The bristles are ar
ranged in pointed tufts the
length of the bristles varying
in each tuft. This allows them
to penetrate easily to the
scalp. The bristles need not
be especially stiff to do this.
Those who like the feeling OF
stiff brush will like the Cos
neon brushes even better. The
greatest claim for the Cosmeor
brush is its perfect cleanliness
There is no other really clean
brush. That is so true that il
will bear telling a number o.
, times, There is nothing less
desirable than dirt. The
: Cosmeon brush will last longer
, and brush better, than any
other. That statement is not
qualifed-it is not a question
of price. Pay what you please
you can't get as good. AS q
matter of fact, the Cosmeor
prices are very moderate, ever
less than silver plated goods.
. So much for hair brushes
Military brushes, clothes
brushes and hat brushes have
the same characteristics. Made
the same way, of the same
material. Made to keep clean
to brush with, and to last
Better than silver" and the
cost is less than one fourth
The military brushes are dis,
tinctively mems hair brushes
Few men in Europe use any
other. The custom is growing
elsewhere as the convenience
becomes known. Engrave q
mans initials on a pair o.
brushes, and he can't wish fol
/ better present. The same o.
clothes and hat brushes. AND
60 hold them-a Cosmeon tray
Stamped out ola solid sheet o
shimmering Aluminum-plain
or engraved as your taste die
tates. The expense trife
The present-perfect. Cosmeor
mirrors are made like brushes
> and the beveled French glass
is put in so its stays in forever
They are light and will neve
tarnish. The line offers many
suggestions for present seekers
The Cosmeon goods should b.
seen. No description will suffice
A glance is worth a Thousand
words in showing just how
dainty and pretty and desirable
they are. Cosmeon goods are
remarkably low in price, but
they are not recommended foI
ithat reason. Consider the
quality first, then the looks,
then the price.
