A speedy and economical treat
ment for disfiguring pinples is
the following: Gently smear the

do not rub. Wash off the oint-
uent in FIVE minutes with Cuti-
cura soap and hot water and
battle freely for some minutes.
Repeat morning and evening. At
other times use hot water and
Cuticura soap fer bathing the face

skin and scalp, with loss of hair,
from infancy to age.
