Lander. the poet, says in one of his
sweet little sOnnets: I'VE are what
suns. and winds, and waters make u.s."
but unfortunately suns will scorch, winds
will roughen, and waters will not remove
the injurious effects of the other two
upon the lovely complexion of the fairer
sex. For ages chemists have tried to dis
til from herbs and minerals an elixir of
beauty but they have failed, and II was
left to modern times to find a cosmetic
which should remove every speck and
blemish, and leave soft and pearly low
illness upon the toughest skin. Gouraud's
Oriental Cream does this and while so
perfectly harmless that spring water is
not more so, it has magic influence upon
the complexion which cannot be oyer-es-
timated or believed until realized. To
our lady readers we simply say, would
you be as lovely as kindly Nature intend
ed? Then use the Oriental Cream.
Also from the noted star actress:
Philadelphia, Nov. %, 1888.
II cordially recommend DR.. L. Felix
Gouraud's Oriental Cream, or Magical
Beautifer,' as 1t is perfectly harmless"
