After using the cream-jelly a while You
VIII ind pimples and blackheads will
have vanished and the skin once rough,
oily, and blotchy, will be of a velvety
softness, clear, and beautiful. The almo-
Zoin cream-jelly is unfailiag in protect
ing the skin from freckles, tan, and SUM-
burn.
A. G. B.: Dieting is a cruel method of
flesh reduction and q needless torture,
because with a parnotis solution, made
ny oissotVing ht ounces parnons IN II
weight without suffering or inconven-
ience. Taking a teaspoonful before
each meal gently and gradually dissolves
jury, and when your weight is where
you want il, the flesh will be firm and
the skin free from wrinkles.
Mrs. A. D.: Don't experiment with al
legged "haIr-tonics," because they may
streak the hair. II your scalp is lifeiess
and scaly, you should shampoo with
canthrox.. then apply little. of the gin
water in Il pint alcohol to which is
then added / ounce quinzoin. Occasional
applications OF this homemade tonic

natural oiliness. The faithful use OF
the qinzoin tonic will encourage the
hair to grow in long and beautiful.
d. O.: Those troublesome hairs can
be made TO disappear like magic by ap-
plying paste made with powdered della
tone and water. After or minutes II
should be removed and the skin washed,
when II win be found that the hairs have
completely vanished. No pain or discoI-
oraticn of the skin follows the use Of
delatone.
Mrs. Max: Long curly lashes add
much tn the expression OF the ewes. Ap-
ply pyroxin daily to lash-roots with
thumb and forehnger and your stubby
eyelashes will grow long and beautiful.
BY putting pyroxin on eyebrows with
forednger you can make them come IN
thick and silky. Don't get any pyroxin
