To Absorb Freckies

Every spring numerous inquiries are
made by girls seeking some reliable
recipe for removing freckies- Last year
very favorable reports were received
from many who had used mercolized wax
during the freckling season. The wax
seems to possess unusual properties
which completely absorb the freckies
with no harmful effect. The complexion
improves wonderfully, becoming as soft
as a rose petal. and as deficately tinted

rough, spotty skin, sallowness black
heads, pimples. and all cutaneous blem-

other.
Springtime also brings wrinkles to
many sensitive skins that are much eN-

an ounce OF powdered saxolite, which
quickly dissolves. Battle the face in this;

trouble is that too often she does not
take advantage of the free help he

with farm topics, but later were
made to include a number OF subjects

that they are a help to all of US.
They are sent free, too. which
means that you need only ask for
the particular number or numbers OF
bulletins you wish to have sent TO
