A Never Failing Way
TO Panish Ugly Hairs
tAids to Beauty

No woman is immune to supernuous
growths. and because these are likely to
appear at any time, It is advisable to
always have some delatone powder
mandy to use when the occasion arises.
a paste IS made with some OF the pow
der and water and spread upon the
hairy surface; in about two minutes
this is carefully removed and the skin
washed. You will then find that your
skin Is entirely free from hair or fuzz.
Be sure, however, to get real delatone.
