How To Remove Wrinkles
A simple. safe and Reliable Way


Those who have become pre-
maturely wrinkled whether from
trouble. worry or ill-health know
full well the priceless treasure
they have lost. There is no need,
however of any woman iniuring
her chances of social or financial
success in life by carrying around
these marks of time.
If your skin shows signs of be-
coming wrinkled or fiabby. go to
any good druggist and get a lit
tie am-o-nized cocoa cream and
apply this nightly over the en-
tire face and neck, allow to re-
and then wipe off with soft dry
cloth when the complexion will
be found to be much improved,
wrinkles less apparent and the
skin whittier and less flabby in
Beauty doctors say IT is the
only preparation in the world that
will actually remove wrinkles
and make old faces look young
and beautiful. Am-o-nized cocoa
lightful to apply, does not pro-
mote hair growth and will keep
sweet and fresh indefinitely.
Druggists everywhere are recon-
mending it in place of face
creams and lotions for instead of
hiding your wrinkles or complex
ion defects, it removes them. This
is why many society women. who
would not touch an ordinary cold
cream. are enabled to keep their
skin free from wrinkles and so
young and girlish in appearance.
Every lady who wants to possess
a clear. smooth skin. free from
wrinkles, should give this prepa-
ration a trial. There is nothing
better.
