HOW TO HAVE
A GOOD COL OR

Beanty-real beauty-is more than
skin deep. No cosmetic in the world
can give the wholesome color, the
bright eyes, the clear trans parent
skin that is the natural result of pure
blood, proper diet and hygienic habits
of daily life.
1t sounds easy and it is easy for a
woman to have the beauty which
health alone can give. A safe and
efficient tonic if the blood is weak,
| thin or impure (Dr. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People are especially
recommended), the avoidance of foods
which will cause ernptions, and ,regu-
lar bathing of the skin. That is all
and it is the only way. Most women
