"It is astonishing" remarked a we'll known authority on Diseases of the skin, how such a large number of peO- pie, especially ladies, are by attractive ly written advertisements, induced to purchase some of the many so called Beauty Creams now on the market, not knowing of course that they most ly contain oly or greasy substances that clog the pores of the skin and are for that reason the very worst things that they could possibly use. My treat ment of Pimples, Blackheads, Blotch- es and all eruptions of the skin, are as follows and has invariably proved very successful. Wash the face carefully every night before retiring with warm water and a little oatmeal tied up in a small cloth bag, then after drying well. use the following inexpensive and perfectly harmless prescription which can be filled at any Drug Store. Clearola aoz. Ether l oz. Alcohol ' ozs. Use this mixture on the face as often as possible during the day, but use night and morning anyway, allow ing it to remain on the face at least ten minutes, then the powdery film may be wiped off. Do not wash the face for somerlittle time after using. By following this simple treament. you will soon have clear and Brilliant Complexion"

We are showing a complete line of this seasons Regal models and the as. sortment affords broad choice.
