How to Keep Age-Lines
and Wrinkles AtDay

Don't forget that the woman who smiles
will have skin more free from wrinkles
than the woman who frowns. When
wrinkles begin to appear it is a good plan
to battle the face once day for a while
in harmless solution made by dissolying
an ounce of powdered saxolite in a half
pint of witch hazel.
This is remarkably effective in erasing
the hateful lines, not only because of its
astringent action which tightens the skin
and thus irons out the lines, but also be-
cause of a helpful tonic effect which i'm
proves capillary circulation and nerve tone.
There is nothing better for flabby checks
or chin. Be sure to ask the druggist for
the powdered saxolite.-Adv.
