YOU'LL GET RID OF
 BLACKHEADS SURE

There is one simple, safe and sure way that never fails to get rid of blackheads 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. Blk 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 tho body that form in the pores of the skin. PinehinR and squeezing only cause irritation, make large pores, and do not get the blackheads out after they become hard. The cslonite powder and the water simply dissolve the blac kheads they wash right out, leaving the pores free and clean and in their natural condition. Anyone troubled with these unsightly biemishes should certainly try this simple method.-Adv

It is no wonder that many conscientious women break under the strain, and that others drcg out a miserable existence; all ways tired. and yet unable to take a days vacation. Such women will find themselves benefited and their burdens made easier by the use of Lydia E.
