A FAMOUS BEAUTY
SPECIALIST
Gives Advice to Women Lacking In
Energy and Vitality.

Thousands of women are using
toilet preparations unsuccessfully.
Cosmetics fail to improve their
thick, muddy complexion or to
Danish the pimples, blackheads and
crow's-feet.
No wonder. Their trouble lies
far deeper than the skin. They
have bad blood, and bad blood
in 80 per cent of the cases arises
from Inflammation of the mucous
membrane. Their blood is filled
with poison which is certain to
break ont in unsightly humors and
blotches-while pale, drawn faces,
deep circled eyes, STOPPING shoulders
and weak backs complete the story
of suffering and despair.
Inflammation of the mucous
membrane is catarrh. Danish
catarrh and compilations will clear
as if by magic, pain vanish, eyes
will brighten, faces become plump
and shoulders erect. Perfect beauty
goes only with perfect health, and
perfect health for women can only
be obtained through Rexall Mucu-
Tone, the one positive and perma-
nent cure for catarrh.
Nine. Swift, a. w 10Th St., New
York City, the most famous beauty
specialist in the world and, an
accepted authority on all relating
thereto, has this to- say of Muco-
Tone:
Il can strongly endorse the
claims made for Rexall Muco-Tone
as a cure for systematic catarrh.
Its tonic effects are remarkable.
1t builds up the strength and re-
stores vitality. If women who are
tired and run down, lacking in
energy and vitality, will use Mucu-
Tone, they will praise it as I do
for its Strengthening and healing
qualities" .~. /
Rexall Mucu- Tone works through
the blood, and acting directly upon
the muco-cells-the congestion and
Inflammation of which are the sole
cause of catarrh-causes them to |
expel the poison and to resume
their natural functions. Thus the
membranes are cleansed-the blood
purified and revitalized.
We know that Rexall Mucu-T Tone
will cure every form of catarrh, no
matter where located, of how long
standing, or by what other names
it is known. We guarantee to
refund your money if you are not
satisfied with the vigorous health
and clear complexion it brings you.
