SHE LOOKS LIKE A GIRL OF ID.
This clever woman has not wrinkle upon her
face; she has perfected marvellous. simple
method which brought a wonderful change in
her face In a single night. For removing wrinkles
and developing the bust her method is truly
wonderfully rapid.
She made herself the woman she is today
and brought about the wonderful change In her
appearance In a secret and pleasant manner.
Her complexion Is as clear and fair as that Of
beautiful bust and well developed form. she
had thin, scrawny eyelashes and eyebrows. which
could scarcely be seen. and she made them long,
thick and beautiful by her own methods.
You can imagine her joy when. by her own
simple discovery she removed every wrinkle from
her face and developed her thin neck and form
to beautiful proportions.
Nothing is taken into the stomach. no mask or
common massage. no harmless plasters, no roll
ers. no worthless creams.
By her new process she removes wrinkles and
develops the whole figure plump and fat
1t is simply astonishing the number OF women
who write regarding the wonderful results from
this new beauty treatment, which is identifying
their face and form after beauty doctors and
Mary Merritt of wisconsin writes her wrinkles
have entirely disappeared Miss Hanson writes
her bust is beautifully developed and wrinkles
gone. Mrs. Markham writes she has not a
wrinkle left.
The valuable new beauty book which Madame
Cunningham Is sending free to thousands OF
women is certainly a blessing to womankind as

tffying the face and figure Of unattractive
women.
