To Wash AUay Those
Wrinkles and CrOUsfeet


If your face is disfigured with wrinkles,
no matter what the cause, you can
quickly dispel every line, even the most
obstinate, by using simple home made
wash lotion. Merely dissolve an ounce
of powdered saxolite in a half pint witch
Neutrality-suspicious. found in any drug
store. Battle the face in this, and
presto you scarcely believe your own
eyes when you look into your mirror and
behold the marvellous transformation
The remarkable astringent action of
the saxolte so tightens the skin, wrinkles
are literally pressed out. Best of all,
this result is not purely temporary, for
the lotion also has healthful tonic
action, which tends to strengthen and
tone up the weakened tissue. and added
benefit may be expected with con-
tinued use. Use this once day for
awhile; it cannot njure the most deli
cate skin. The treatment itself leaves
no trace-no one guesses the secret of
your increasing youthful appearance.
