TT is indeed remarkable how short a
l. time it requires TO bring the skin back
to youthful plumpness and vigor when
the proper method is employed. Although
the method mentioned here IL very eco
| nomical, it is not for that reason that
| suggest it, but it is because of its re-
markable results. These wrinkle removing
results can be secured when you prepare
this simple, formula yourself. Its richness
is then unquestioned. By mixing a table
spoonful of glycerine and the contents of
| a two-ounce package of eptol in a half
pint of water you obtain the satiny cream
necessary. By liberal use of this you will
find that the skin will become more re-
fined in texture. and crow's-feet and
wrinkles. large and small, will very quickly
begin to disappear. The eptol can be
obtained at any drug store for fifty cents.
This is remarkable opportunity. Grasp
it.
PUT OUT-When your hair is wet, it
becomes soaked like piece of CLOTH This
is because hair absorbs liquids easily.
Therefore when you apply to the hair any
substance which will actually force the
hair roots to start up a vigorous growth
you very soon can notice the tremendous
difference in its increased length and vigor.
The hair root developer given here acts
the same way. 1t has been demonstrated
to have a very remarkable effect in fore
ing hair to grow luxuriantly and to fill
out bald spots quickly. With a half-pint
of water and half a pint of bay rum
of beta -quinol. which can be obtained for
fifty cents. This makes real hair grow
er, and in larger quantity than you can

Real Wonder Worker
For WrinkLed Faces


Those who have tried all sorts Of So
called wrinkle removers" in = vain effort
to lose those unwelcome traces Of age,
illness or worry, can scarcely find words
to express their delight with the wonderful
saxolite formula, once they have given it
a trial. The success of this method is
due not alone to its marvellous effective
ness-upon the deepest lines and crows
feet, as well as upon the very fine ones
but also to its surprisingly quick action and
its entire harmlessness. Its simplicity is
another commendable feature. for one
need only dissolve an ounce Of powdered
saxolte in a half pint witch hazel. and
battle the face in this solution. At once
. remarkable transformation is beheld.
II is not only the effect on wrinkles
and creases that Is SO noticeable, but facial
contour is remarkably improved and the
face looks much younger. One should be
sure to ask the druggist for the powdered
saxolte. The lotion, being so refreshing,
is particularly grateful to tired faces

The statement that farmer never

borne out by the calls now delug-

The policy of the local branch ct
the Woman's Land army is to re-
frain from seeking openings for

opportunities to the returning sol-
diers. But with the garden season
well open, and city people. turning
their attention to their country
homes, the dearth of men willing
to pillow and plant is keenly felt,

Secret, Too.

buy readymade for the same price.
Try it.
MISS PEPPERY-Blackheads can be
very quickly eradicated.s and in a very
simple way. The use of tonics and steam
ing the face are Of little value. The way
to get rid of them in a few minutes is
cents at the drug store. sprinkle some on
a wet cloth and rub the blackheads with
it. Then look in your mirror and you will
be astonished.
MISS T. A. F.-While soap may take
off the looser dirt from the hair and scalp.
it rarely removes the flmy accumulations
which affect the Vigor Of the hair Eggol.
however, will remove these accumulations
by dissolving them away. and letting the
a teaspoonful of eggol in half a cup Of
water as head-wash. 1t is glorious.
A twenty-five cent package of eggol con-
tains enough for over a dozen shampoos
MRS SPOTs-Muddiness and freckles
can very quickly be removed by the use
of very rich cream which you should
make yourself. 1t can be done in few
moments: From your druggist get one
ounce package of zintone and mix con-
tents with two tablespoonfuls of glycerine
in pint Of water. In a very few days
you will see the difference in your COM
plexion, and you will lay aside many of
the things you have been using heretofore
in order to produce the same result. You
should not be selfish and keep this secret
to yourself, but tell it to your friends,
and they will appreciate the suggestion.
MRS W. FL wanted a face powder
that would blend beautifully with the skin
and be extraordinarily fine. SO / had my
own face powder made up. "Valeska
Suratt Face Powder" Try it. you can Sc
cure it from your druggist in any of the
tints for fifty cents.
HIRSUTE--Theres no excuse for that
redness and irritation in removing super
fuous hairs. 1t is just as easy to remove
them perfectly and without any trouble
whatever as using your face lotion. This
is done by moistening the hairs with a.
little sulfo solution. This dissolves away
the hair almost magicaly and can ther
be wiped off with a swish Of the finger,
leaving the skin as smooth and white as
before. Do not use pastes or powders.
This sulfo solution is already mixed. and
ready to use. 1t costs about one dollar
at any drug store.
MISS G. G. J.-That armpit misery
from perspiration can be at once relieved
and all odors at the same time removed
by applying some hydrolized tale, which
