Peel OFF The Old Skin;
Bring Out the New

You know that beneath that muddy,
orcr-red or blotehy complexion you have
a skin that's clear. soft and white. II you
could only have this more beautiful skin
exposed to view instead of the horrid old
skin you now behold in your mirror. You
can-and by very simple. harmless
process which you use yourself. Get
an ounce OF common mercolized wax at
your druggists and this evening spread
thin coating of il over your face. To-
morrow morning wash 1t off with warm
water. Small powder-like particles of the
lifeiess top skin will come off with the
wax. Repeat this daily until all the worn
out scarf skin has been absorbed. Then
you'll have a levelier, healthier looking
complexion than you now think possible
Chaps, pimples. spots, freckles or other
surface disfignrements are of course re-
moved with the skin itsef.-Adv..
