To Ward off Summer
Complexion Ills

To keep the face smooth, white
and beautiful all summer, there's
nothing quite so good as ordinary
mercoliZed wax. Discolored or
freckled skin, so common at this
season. is gently absorbed by the
wax and replaced by the newer,
fresher skin beneath. The face eX-
hibits no trace of the wax, which is
applied at bedtime and washed off
mornings. Greasy creams. on the
other hand, are apt TO appear more
conspicuous than usual these days
of excessive perspiration. Just get
an ounce of mercolized wax at any
drugstore and use like cold cream.
This, will help any skin at once and
in a weekk or so the complexion
will look remarkably young and
healthy.
Sun, winds and lying dust often
cause squirting and other contor-
tions which make wrinkles. You
can quickly get rid of every line.

1t has been said that 'backache is
an invention of the Evil One to try
women's SOULS" but even so, it is
more often a symptom of a female
trouble which sooner or later declares
itself. Day after day it drags a
woman down and night after night
prevents restful sleep. Such woman
should follow Mrs. Pitts advice and
try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound. 1t contains no narcotic
or HARMFUL drugs.
