A Never Failing Way
to Danish Ugly Hairs

No woman is immune to superfluous
growths, and because these are likely
to appear at any time, it is advisable
to always have some delatone powder
handy to use when the occasion arises
A paste is made with some of the
powder and water and spread upon
the hairy surface; in about 2 minutes
this is carefully removed and the skin
washed. You will then find that your
skin is entirely free from hair or fuzz.
Be sure, however, to get real delatone.
