Very Effective Method
for Banishing Hairs
Modes of Todav.N

At very little cost any woman can
rid her face OF hairy grOwths if she
will use the delatone treatment. This
is made by mixing some water with a
little powdered delatone- This paste is
spread upon the hairy surface for or
minutes, then rubbed off and the
skin washed, when every trace of hair
will have vanished. No harm results
from this treatment, but care should
be used TO buy real delatone.-Adv.
