Greatest Pre.srver Of Rs.,,v

The greatest promoter and preserver
of beauty is good health. Early hours,
fresh air, proper exercise and regular
diet are better than all of the lotions
ever compounded to retain a fresh
complexion, graceful form, pleasing
expression-in fact, all the small
points which contribute to beauty.
