Sensible Method of
Removing Wrinkles
(From Woman's Realm :.

If crows feet appear prematurely
about the eyes. apply a lotion made
by dissolving an ounce of saxolite in
a half pint OF witch hazel This is
the best, understanding treatment
known, as 1t tends to restore normal
conditions. 1t tightens and strength
ems the skin, likewise the underly-
ing tissue, the loosening and soften
ing of which are the cause of this
trouble. 1t also has a tonic effect,
which not only aids in the same di-
rection but. by increasing the circu-
lation, helps to bring a healthy color
to the face.
The same solution, acting as II does
naturally affects not only every
wrinkle or line, but hanging or
habby cheeks and chin as we'll Tell
the druggist you want powdered
saxoIite, in which form il is most ef-
fective. When your face wears a
tired expression. battle it with this
revivifying liquid.
