Lovely White Skin!
Strain lemon juice we'll before
mixing and massage face,
neck, arms, hands.


BY all means, girls, prepare lemon
lotion to keep your skin flexible and
young looking. You will soon realize
that true loneliness does not mean the
powdery-look or waxen colorlessness
of some dollhouse flower, but is typi-
fed by the velvety softness of your
skin, your peach-like complexion and
rosy-white hands
At the cost of small jar of ordi-
nary cold cream one can prepare a
full quarter pint of the most wonder
full lemon skin softener and complex
ion beautifer, by squeezing the juice
of two fresh lemons into bottle con-
tanning 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 woman
knows that lemon juice is used to re-
move such blemishes as freckles, sal
lowness and tan, and is the ideal skin
softener, smoothener and beautifier
Just try it. Get three ounces of
orchard white at any pharmacy and
two lemons from the grocer and make
up quarter pint of this sweetly fra
grant lotion and massage it daily into
the face, neck, arms and hands It
should naturally help to whiten, soft
en-, freshen and bring out the roses
and hidden beauty of any skin. 1t is
simply marvellous to smoother rough,
red hands.

sweet to him? 1t will break my heart
If he doesn't. Please tell me what to
do to gain his love. ISABEL.
The boy may like you and enjoy
your company, and if he is attractive
and gentlen1anly you will enjoy being
with him. but you are too young to
become engaged or to think of being
his only sweetheart. If he loved you
he would tell you so and he may do it
when he thinks you are old enough to
know your own mind. AT present it is
better for you not to encourage him.
but be natural and do what IS right
and love will come to you when it is
time for it.

For Catarrhal Deafness
and Head Noises

Here in America there is much suf-
ferlng from catarrh and head noises.
American people would do we'll to con-
slider the method employed by the
English to combat this insidous dis
ease. Everyone knows how damp the
English climate is and how dampness
affects those suffering from catarrh.
In England they treat catarrhal deaf
ness and head noises as constitution
al disease and use an internal remedy
for it that is really very efficacious.
Sufferers who could scarcely hear a
watch tick tell how they had their
hearing restored by this English treat.
ment to such an extent that the tick
of watch was plainly audible seven
and eight inches away from either
ear.
Therefor, if you know someone who
is troubled with catarrh, catarrhal
deafness or head noises, cut out this
formula and hand 1t to them and you
will have been the means Of saving
some poor sufferer perhaps from total
deafness. The prescription can be cas-
lily prepared at home for about 75c and
is made as follows:
From your druggist obtain 1 OF. of
Parmint Double Strength), about 75c
worth. Take this home, and add to it
Il pint of hot water and ounces of
granulated sugar; stir until dissolved.
Take tablespoonful four times day.
Parmint Is used in this way not only
to reduce by tonic action the infama-
ton and swelling In the Eustachain
Tubes, and thus to equalize the air
pressure on the drum, but to correct
any excess of secretions in the middle
ear, and the results it gives are usual
ly remarka bly, quick and effective.
Every person who has catarrh in
any form should give this recipe a
trial and free themselves from this
destructive disease. Adv.
