Women! It's Cheap!
Use Lemon Juice
and Make Lotion


To keep your skin and complexion
naturally soft, white and clear at all
times you simply must use lotion or
cream every day. But choose the one
that is best and costs the least.
The juice Of two fresh lemons
strained into a bottle containing three
ounces of orchard white makes a
whole quarter pint Of the most remark
able beauty lotion at about the cost
one must pay for small jar Of the
ordinary cold creams. Care should be
taken to strain the lemon juice
through a 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
bleach and remove such blenishes as
freckles, sallowness and tan, and is
the ideal skin softener, smoothener
and beautifier.
Just try this lotion. Make up
quarter pint of this sweetly fragrant
cream and massage ii into the face,
neck, arms and hands. 1t should ma
turally help to whiten, soften, freshen,
and bring out the hidden roses and
beauty of any skin
Your druggist will sell three ounces
Of orchard white at little cost, and any
grocer will supply the lemons.-Adv
