"SimpIe Remedy from w. L. Gokay's
Removed Them" Says Society Lady
1.-THE best skin specialists told me
that nothing would remove my free
kles and that | would carry them to
my grave" said well known socie-
ty woman, but l fooled them all with
a new drug othine-double strength,
that bought at w. l.. Gokay's which
cleared my skin and gave me fine
complexion"
The action of othine is really re-
markable, for when applied at night,
many of the freckles disappear en-
tirely by morning, and the rest have
begun to fade. An ounce Is usually
all that is needed, even for the worst
case.
Be sure to ask w. l.. Gokay for the
double strength othine, as this is
sold under a guarantee OF money back
