"They Just Melt Away in a Few
Moments" Says Valeska Suratt,
the Movie Star.
BY vALESKA SURATT

W OF can say goodbye now to all the
old drudgery and irritation of skin
due TO present methods OF remov-
ing hair, A few drops Of a wonderful
liquid make every hair seem to melt away
into nothingness and leave the skin glo-
riously clean and soft, without a sign of
having used anything at all for removing
superfluous hair. Here is the way: Just
moisten the hairs with sulfO solution,
which you can obtain from your druggist
for one dollar. In very few moments the
hairs will seem to just fall off, loose
from the skin. 1t is so easy to do COM
pared with the old methods, with their OBJ
jectionable odOr and fixing to do be
forehand. Try it.. The styles of today
with the transparent gowns and low cut
waists absolutely demand the use Of a SUI
perfluOus hair remover. This formula
can be used with perfect safety on the
most delicate skin. Use ii and YOU will
improve your appearance many fold.
MUDDY-Muddiness and general poor
complexion that nothing else in the world
seemed to affect have disappeared com
pletely in just a very few days by a sim
pie mixture which i have recommended to
