HAIR RfMovfRS
IRE DIHGEROUS
Physicians Say: "Don't Use
Poisonous Depilatories."

The extravagant claims recently made
by unscrupulous manufacturers OF hair
removers in sensational advertisements
unquestionab bly, Justify physicians in eau
tioning the public against the use Of this
class OF depilatories. How many people
have been enticed Into using these dam
gerous preparations. with consequent in
jury to themselves. cannot be estimated,
but only guessed at.
The preparations above referred to are
invariably in the form Of creamy pastes.
\ hich are to be spread upon the skin to
remain until they dry. These contain
3ulphide OF Barium, an insOluble chenl-
CAL which cannot be dissolved; there
fore cannot be absorbed by the skin. The
very fact that you are told to leave
these pasty compounds on the skin until
they dry and cake and then lift on with
knife Is pronf positive that they are
not absorbed. If they are. why do they
still remain on the skin? The most they
can possibly do is TO remove the surface
hair which in consequence Will reappear
stronger and thicker after each removal.
There Is only one logical and scientihc
way To remove hair. and that Is py
means Of liquid containing soluble IN
gradients which can be absorbed by the
skin. DeMiracle. known all the World
over as the only real supernuous hair
remover. is just such a preparation. II
Is easily and quickly absorbed and after
you have used II you will note there Is
nothing left on the skin. II leaves the
skin free from irritation, and what Is
more TO the point, II Is absolutely nom
poisonous therefore, IL Will not produce
eczema or blood poisoning. Remember.
no matter what claims are made TO the
contrary. no poisonous. pasty compound
or so-called liquid cure" ever did or
ever will kill a single hair root. and We
can prove it.
Beware of the fake fee advertisers
and others who by wording Of their ad-
vertisements. try 10 give the impression
that newspapers and other reputable
publications endorse their worthless
preparations Don't be deceived by
them. -DeMiracle Is the only preparation
which is so endorsed.
DeMiracle IS sold at all good stores.
No honest dealer will offer you SUBJ
stitute on which he makes more profit.
We will send you 52-page booklet

eye wash nurses usually put little fun
