 CURE YOUR P|MPLES

For several weeks past Lee 6 os- good Co. has done a big business in selling Hokara, the skin healer that has won so many friends in Norwich.
 It has been found to heal not only all minor skin troubles, such as->pim- pies, blackheads, herpes, acne, scaly scalp, complexion blemishes, itching feet, piles, etc. but also the worst sores, ulcers, or. even chronic eczema and salt rheum. There is yet to be found any form of wound or disease affecting the skin or mucous mem braLe that Hokara does not help, and its action is so quick that those who try it are simply delighted with it right from the start.
 h spite of its unusual curative powers, the price is trihing. To con vince every one of it's merits. Lee &, Osgood Co. will sell liberal-sized jar for 35c. And remember that if you do not think it does what it claims you can get your money back. You certainly can afford to try it on this plan.
