II WANT to tell you new way of
getting rid Of superfluous hairs.
with your finger or cloth you can
rub off with one stroke every super
f!uous hair as easily as you can wipe
of little spot Of dirt. You should
first moisten the hairs with sulfo solu-
ton for few moments, then every
hair, heavy and light, and no matter
where, will come loose, and ease right
off the skin. It's simply wonderful.
Try it. 1t does not harm the skin in
any way whatever, and leaves no mark.
II is ideal. For one dollar you can get
from any drug store enough sulfo solu-
ton to last for quite while.
Every woman should have this splen.

safe and never fails. 1t is certainly re
