Proving That Beauty Is
Only Skin Deep
(From Domestic Circle.)

A very interesting proof of the old
adage has lately been brought 10
the notice OF fashionable women at
Newport and Atlantic City. 1t has
been discovered that even the
blotchiest and muddiest complex
ions are merely masks that cover
perfect pink and white skins which
may be easily revealed. All that is
necessary is to rub on ordinary pure
coleated Dalsam. which is kept in
stock at all up-to-date drug stores;
the purifying and cleansing proper
ties OF coleated baisam become &C
tive at once, and the outer skin
quickly flecks off in tiny particles
and presto, there is the bright
young complexion Of sweet sixteen,
az If 1t had never been impaired
at all
OF course. all such blemishes as
salloWness, pimples, liver spots,
freckles, etc, come off with the re-
moval Of the outer skin.

Did Your 1910 Advertising Pay?

There are men who still sing the
old song about advertising doesn, t
pay," eve can't afford it," and all
those old familiar strains, says a
writer in Stoves and Hardware Re
porter.
How much money did you spend
in advertising during the year 1917?
How much did you make because
YOU did spend this money in adVer-
Using?
How much more money would you
have made if you had spent more
money in advertising?
Did the amount of money you ex-
pended for advertising cripple your
business? If so, to what extent?
Advertising has been talked and
talked, and there are men who turn
away from the subject and refuse to
read what is written about it or hear
it discussed. They say it is chest
nut, that the papers are just talking
for their own benefit, and all that.
Well, advertising is an old matter,
one that has been discussed and writ
ten about for years. 1t seems as
hard to say anything real new and
fresh about it as it is to write some
thing real new and original about
Christmas.
Nevertheless, it is a most vital is
sue, one that will not down, and one
which some men are paying thous-
ands of dollars every year to get new
pointers on, and think they are maxi
ing pretty good investments, too.
Another pointer-just a little one
for the men who say advertising talk
and solicitation is chestnut, and
that the papers are simply looking
after their own interests. You prob
ably know of men in your own line
who are paying out thousands of
dollars every year for advertising in
various forms. You see the many
liberal advertisers in the trade press
in other publications, men who also
expend thousands, yes, hundreds of
thousands of dollars annually in ar
tistic printing. Do you imagine for
a minute that these men are hand
ling their good money over to the
publishers and printers just for the
fun of the thing? Is it pure philan-
thropy on their part?
Don't you know they are doing it
because they see in it good in
vestment? Because it brings them
good returns?-Omaha Trade Ex-
hihit
