ON BEING
BEAUTIFUL

There are about as many standards
Of beauty as there are people who
give the subject any thought, but on
one point all arc agreed--no woman
can be beautiful or even good loook-
ing unless her complexion is perfect.
This Is fully realized as is proven by
tho tremendous quantities OF social
cd face lotions. creams. rouge and
powder that are constantly used in
the hope that they will cover up de-
fects and give the appearance Of a
natural. good complexion These
things help to conceal tho real con-
dition Of tho imperfect skin, but do
no permanent good in many cases
are Injurious and really deceive no
one because their use is so perfect
ly apparent.
The only way 10 have and keep a
plump. smooth face and neck, free
from wrinkles and dryness and with
healthy color, is to care for the skin
in natural intelligent manner by
giving Il proper nourishment and
food. The very best thing we know
of IS tisit, the pure nut-oil liquid
preparation that needs TO be applied
only for a few moments az night be-
fore retiring. Usit as has been fully
proven by thousands OF women, sup
plies just the elements the winkled,
dry faded skin requires. and it is
remarkable how quickly II shows re-
suits II banishes wrinkles. the ma
tural color comes back. and with it
smoothness and youthful appearance.

freckles. black-heads and many forms
