LEMONS BRING OUT
THE HIDDEN BEAUTY
Make this lotion for very little
cost and Just see
for yourself.

What girl or woman hasn't heard OF
lemon juice to remove complexion blem-
ishes; to bleach the skin and to bring out
the roses, the freshness and the hidden
beauty! But lemon juice alone is acid,
therefore irritating, and should be mixed
with orchard white this way. Strain
through a fine cloth the juice of two
fresh lemons into a bottle containing
about three ounces of orchard white,
then shake well, and you have whole
quartet pint of skin and complexion To-
tion at about the cost one usually pays
for a small jar of ordinary cold cream.
Be sure to strain the lemon juice so no
pulp gets into the bottle, then this lotion
viii remain pure and fresh for months
When applied daily to the face, neck,
arms and hands. it should help to bleach,
clear, smoother and beautify the skin.
Any druggist will supply three ounces
of orchard white at very little cost, and
the grocer has the lemons.-Adv.
