The Real Secret Of
Rejuvenating the Face

regeneration who has learned how to
remove the dead skin particles as fast
as they appear. It's a secret anyont
may possess. The aged, faded, or dis
colored surface skin may be gradually
absorbed. in an entirely safe and ra-
tional manner, by the nightly applica-
ton OF ordinary mercolized wax.
Within week or two the underlying
skin. youthful and beautiful to be-
hold, has taken the place of the dis
carded culticle. So little of the old
skin Is absorbed each Gay there's no
inconvenience at all. and no one sus-
poets you are. putting anything on
your face, The mercolized wax, pro-
durable at any drug store Gan ounce is

In the morning it is erased with soap
and water, It's the best thing known
for freckles, blackheads pimples,
moth patches. liver spots and fine sur
face wrinkles.
For the deeper wrinkles and crows
feet an excellent and harmless recipe
is. Powdered saxolite, one ounce,
dissolved in one-half pint witch hazel.
