From Town Tattler.)

You can now so transform your
face, in less than an hour, that you'll
look like one fresh from the Fountain
of Youth. Just cover the face with
parafned plastoid jelly, let 1t dry, and
wash 1t off in from Is minutes to an
hour AS 1t dries on the face you feel
a delightfully."- soothing sensation, and
your mirror shows a delicate girlish
bloom mounting your cheeks. You al
so feel the facial tissue tightening
so suddenly 1t may startle you, though
it is no cause for anxiety. PARALLEL
plastoid jelly is entirely harmless, ev-
en- If it gets into the eyes. The treat
ment seems also to put sparkle in
the eyes. 1t gives the face beauti-
fully rounded contour and fresh,
healthy color.
The general rejuvenating effect of
this peculiar substance is so marvellous
that the drug stores are selling more
and more Of 1t every day. The new
treatment is creating a sensation.
Many ladies use It before going out to
any social affair.-Adv.
