The blondes complexion fades

lily thin and fine" says Nine. Lima
Cavalieri. "The brunette's, as rule,
is the reverse. The skin is thicker and
has tendency to an oily appearance. g"
For either the faded blondes skin
or the brunette s oily or sallow complex

wax gradually peels off the worn-out
surface skin, with all its defects, lit

delicate underskin in the least. The
latter will have the exquisitely beauti-
full glow of youth-indeed, one may
readily lose ten or fifteen years from
her age, so far as appearance goes, by a
course of this simple treatment. The

GET RID OF HUM0RS
AND AVOID DISEASE

Humors in the blood cause inter-
nal arrangements that affect the
whole system, as well as pimples,
boils and other eruptions. They affect
all the organs and functions, mem-
branes and tissues, and are directly
responsible for the readiness with
which some people contract disease.
For forty years Hoods Sarsaparilla
has been more successful than any
other medicine in expelling humors
and removing their inward aud out
ward effects. 1t is distinguished for
its thoroughness in purifying the
blood, which It enriches and invigor-
ates. No other medicine acts like ii,
for no other medicine is like it.
Get Hoods Sarsaparilla today.
