Proper Thing Now Is to
Peel Off Soiled Skin

Those who abhor sticky, greasy,
shiny, streaked compilations should re-
ligiously avoid creams, powders and
rouges during the heated days. There
is no need for them, anyway, since the
virtues Of mercolized wax have be-
come known. No amount of perspira-
ton will produce any evidence that
you've been using the wax. AS it IS
applied at bedtime and washed off in
the morning, the complexion never
looks like a makeup Mercolized
wax gradually takes off a bad COM
plexion, instead of adding anything
to make it worse. 1t has none Of the
disadvantages of cosmetics and &C
composites much more in keeping the
complexion beautifully white, satiny
and youthful, free from freckles,
pimples, blotches and other blemishes
Just get an ounce of it at your drug
gists, and see what a few days treat
ment will do. Use like cold cream.
