The Undeniable
 Charm of Beauty And how to attain it

Youth of the complexion, a clear soft, delicately tinted skin, is every day recog- nized as the undeniable charm of beauty
 To be attractive, to be admired, is the secret desire of every woman, but few know how to attain this accomplis hment.
 First, it is very necessary to remove all blemishes--tan. sun freckles. dark, sallow blotches, liver spots and pimples and to bring pink glow of life to the skin tissues.
 No other preparations the market, to- day will quickly give results, make the skin clear. soft and youthful as Black and White Ointment and Black and White Soap.
 No tedious hours of application are re- quired no long hours of appointments at beauty parlors-just a massage of the creamy ointment before retiring then rinsed off next morning with Black and White Soap.

II began suffering from rheumatism

stand it. Many nights I had such
fearful headaches l couldn't sleep a
wink and the following day would
be awfully dizzy.
"My appetite was so poor that when
I ventured to eat square meal gas
would form in my stomach and
would be in misery for hours after
wards. I was badly constipated and
always had to be taking something
for that as well as my other troubles,
but nothing helped me in the least.
Finally Tanlac was recommended
to me so highly I bought bottle. 1
soon noticed wonderful improve

The cost of the Boy Scouts should
be reckoned as an investment in good
citizenship.
The man who has been a Boy Scout
in his boyhood will be healthier man,
a manliersman, man with an enliven-

out-of-doors, a man with finer con-
ception of citizenship and a man with
a livelier public spirit.
To do a thing for boyhood that
yields such noble returns in manhood
is a splendid investment for Duluth
and for America, no matter what it
costs.
This, in word, is the case for the
Boy Scouts.

will be asked to pledge thirty thou
