TO MAKE SKIN CLEAR

Don't worry about skin trou-
bles. You can have a clear, clean
complexion by using a little zemo,
obtained at any drug store for
&c. or extra large bottle at $1.00.
Zemo easily removes all traces
Of pimples, black heads, eczema,
and ringworm and makes the
skin clear and healthy. Zemo Is
neither watery, sticky nor
greasy and stains nothing. It Is
easily applied and costs mere
trifle for each application. 1t is
always dependable.

GET IT FIUST-NOT LAST

When cold grips your system II Is
convincing proof that your condition is
acknowledgements that 1t is risky
indeed to simply trust your strength to
throw it off, because neglected colds
have brought more serious sickness
than any other one thing, while weak
eningcathartics and acknowledgements
are often depressing and dangerous.
The one best treatment for any cold
the one so often relied on when others
fail, is the powerful blood-nourishment
in Scott's Emulsion, which feeds the
very sources of bodily strength to sup
press the present cold and generate
strength to thwart further sickness.
Get SCOTS first, not last-and insist
on the genuine-always free from al
