BEAUTYOF THE FACE
 IS IMPOSED E.
With a blemished complexion.

If your skin is marred by blemishes or discolorations and your beauty is not all it should be, then you have only yourself to blame.
 It is not necessary to spend hours before your mirror or at beauty parlors, just try Black and White Ointment and Black and White Soap.
 Massage creamy Black and White Ointment on the face just before retiring. Next morning wash off with Black and White Soap. The Ointment gives the skin a clear, pink tint, the Soap brings life to the skin and their combined use is de- light to the user.

FEW EYES REALLY NORMAL
just as One Is Right or Left-Handed,
So 1t Is With the Organs
Of Vision.

Very few people realize that they
are as much right-eyed or left-eyed
as they are right or left-handed.
SIT down in chair and fix your at
tention on some object on the other
side of the room. Quickly hold your
finger up right in front of the object,
and instantly shut your eyes. Then
without moving your head or your
finger, open your eyes one at time.
If, when you open your right eye you
find your finger directly in front of
the object. you are right-eyed. In
that case you will find your finger
very much to the right of the object
when you open your left eye.
II you are right-handed you will
most probably find that you are right
eyed.
This is due to the fact that Of the
two halves of your brain one is slight.
ly more developed than the other. And
the organs and limbs on that side of
your body which Is controlled by the
more developed half are able to carry
out your wishes more easlly and
quickly than those of the other side.
