The conditions Of production are

Miss Rowe said that inasmuch as
Germany has conquered so much rich

our allies will face the blacklist winter

Tan, Red or Freckled
Skin Is Easily Shed

To free your summer soiJed skin Of
its muddiness. freckles. blotches or
tan, the best thing to do is to free
yourself OF the skin itself This is
easily accomplished by the use of Or
binary mercolized wax. which can be
had at any drug store. Use at night
as you use cold cream. washing it off
in the morning. Immediately the Of
Tending surface skin begins to come off
in fine pOwdcr-like particles. Grad
ually the. entire cuticlc Is absorbed.
without pain or inconvenience. Tho
second layer of skin now in evidence
presents a spotless wilderness and
sparkling beauty Obtainable in no other
way.
II the heat tends to loosen and
wrinkle your skin. there's an effective
and harmless remedy you can readily
make at home. Just let an ounce OF
powdered saxolite dissolve in a half
pint witch hazel and battle your face
in the liquid. This at once tightens
the skin and smooths out the lines
making you look years younger.
