Nothing is quite SO annoying to a
woman as ugly fuzzy growths on the
face. and while the electric needle
brings relief, it is no more effective
than a simple paste made with pow
dered delatone and water. This paste
is spread on the Objectionable hairs
for or minutes, then rubbed off.
After this treatment the skin should
be washed to free it from the remain
ing delatone and 1t will be soft, clear
and hairless. Be sure, however, that
