Lemons Beauty!
Make Quarter Pint
of Lotion, Cheap

What girl or woman hasn't heard of
lemon juice to remove complexion
blemishes; to bleach the skin and to
bring out the roses. the freshness and
the hidden beauty? But lemon juice
alone is acid, therefore irritating. and
should be mixed with orchard white
this way. Strain through a fine cloth
the juice of two fresh lemons into a
bottle containing about three ounces
of orchard white. then shake well and
you have a whole quarter pint of skin
and complexion lotion at about the
cost one usually pays for small jar
of ordinary cold cream. Be sure to
strain the lemon juice so no pulp gets
into the bottle, then this lotion will
remain pure and fresh for months.
When applied daily to the face, neck.
, arms and hands, it should help to
bleach, clear, smoother and beautify
| the skin.
| Any druggist will supply three
ounces of orchard white at very little
cost and the grocer has the lemons
