/ Facts About Indigestion and Its Re-
lief That Should Interest You.
Although Indigestion and dyspep-
STA are so prevalent, most people do
not thoroughly understand their
cause and cure. There is no reason
why most people should not eat any
thing they desire-if they will only
chew it carefully and thoroughly.
Many actually starve themselves into
sickness through fear of eating ev-
cry good-looking, gOOd-smelling and
good-tasting food, because it does not
agree with them.
The best thing to do is to fit your
self to digest any good food.
We believe we can relieve dyspep-
STA. We are so confident of this fact
that we guarantee and promise 10

Face Peeling Easy
Blonde or Brunette

THE blondes complexion fades
early, because her skin is extraor-
dinarily thin and fine says Nine.
Lima Cavalieri, perhaps the most IA
nous living beauty. THE brunette =
as a rule, is the reverse. The skin
is thicker and has a tendency to an
oily appearance"
For either the faded blondes skin
or the brunette's oily or sallow com
plexion, the best remedy is ordinary
mercolized wax. Used daily, this
will give one an entirely new COM
plexion within about a weeks time
The wax gradually absorbs the worn
out surface skin, with all it's defects
a little each day, without affecting
the delicate undcrskin in the least.
The latter will have the exquisitely
beautiful glow Of youth-indeed, one
may readily lose 0 or IS years from
her age, so far as appearance goes,
by course Of this simple treatment.
