Pin1ples Disappear

There is one remedy that seldom falls
to clear away all pimples, black heads
and skin eruptions and that makes the
skin soft, clear and healthy.
Any druggist can supply you with zemo,
which generally overcomes all skin dis
eases. Acne, eczema, itch, pimples,
rashes, black heads in most cases give
way to zemo. Frequently, minor blem-
ishes disappear overnight. Itching usu-
ally stops instantly. Zemo is safe, clean,
easy to use and dependable. It costs only
