Lemon Juice is
Skin Beautifier,

Many women use just the juice of
lemons to bleach or whiten the skin.
but pure lemon juice is acid, therefore
irritating. and should be mixed with
orchard white.
At the cost of a small jar of ordi-
nary cold cream one can prepare a
full quarter pint of the most wonder
full lemon skin softener and COM
pleXion beautifier, by squeezing the
juice of two fresh lemons into a bot
tie containing three ounces of orchard
white. Care should be taken to strain
the Juice through fine cloth so no
lemon pulp gets in. then this lotion
will keep fresh for months. Every wo-
man knows that lemon juice is used
to bleach and remove such blemishes
as freckles. sallowness and tan, and
is the ideal skin softener, smoothener
and beautifor.
Just try 1t, Get three ounces of or
chard white at any pharmacy and two
