tache-nothinE seems to remove it,"
Ans: That's the same complaint have
about all the superfuous hair burners
sold. II has been my experience. Ever
hear Of dissolving away hair" It's. the
only successful way. Get some Sulfo
solution at the drug store, and moisten
thick. the hairs simply dissolve--dis-
appear This. never falls. and never
BARNS or spots the skin. II is almost
miraculous In its action anywhere on
the body, and is safe.
