SIMPLE WAY TO GET
 RID OF BLACKHEADS

There Is one simple safe and sure way that never fails to get rid of biackheads and that Is to dissolve them.
 To do this get two ounces of caionite powder from any drug store-sprinkle a little on hot, wet sponge-rub over the blackheads briskly--wash the parts and you will be surprised how the blackheads have disappeared. Big blackheads. little blackheads. no matter where they are. simply dissolve and disappear. leaving the parts without any mark whatever. Black heads are simply mixture of dust and dirt and secretions from the body that form in the pores of the skin. Pinching and squeezing only cause irritation make large pores and do not get them out after they become hard. The calonite powder and the water simply dissolve the blackheads SO they wash right out. leaving the pores free and clean and in their natural condition. Anyone troubled with these unsightly blemishes should cer- tainly try this simple method.-Adv,
