Mrs. OBJ: Your surplus weight can be
safely reduced with no Ill after-efrects by
this simple treatment. which costs little
and can be made at home: Into ~ pints
hot water put 4 ounces parnotis. Strain
when cool and take q tablespoonful be-
fore meals. This dissolves fat rapidly
without dieting or unusual exercising
The partnods treatment also leaves the
flesh firm and the skin free from
wrinkles.
Gladys: Instead of pore-clogging pow
der use a plain spurmax lotion, because
one application is sufficient for an entire
day or evening. This lotion adheres SO
closely to the skin that it seems part OF
1t, SO cannot. be detected, and it gives it a
very velvety appearance. To prepare
just put ounces spurmax into u pint hot
water or witch hazel and add 2 teaspoon
fuls glycer1ne. The use of this lotion
banishes pimples, blackheads, blotches and
sallowness. It is particularly good for
tan, lreckles and oiliness of the skin
