that is required. 1t makes an abun-

Simply get an ounce of Othine-

and a few applications should show
you how easy it is to rid yourself of
the homely freckles and get a beauti-
full complexion. Rarely is more than
one ounce needed for the worst case
Be sure to ask the druggist for
the double strength Othine as this
strength is sold under guarantee of
money back if it fails to remove
freckles.-Adv.
