SURE WAY TO GET
RID OF BLACKHEADS

There Is one simple, safe and sure
way that never fails to get rid of
blaokheads, that is to dissolve them,
TO do this get two ounces of calo-
mite powder from any drug store
sprinkle a little on hot, wet sponge
rub over the blackheads briskly--
wash the parts and you will be sur
pr1sed how the blackheads have dis
appeared: Big blackheads, little
plackheads. no matter where they
are, simply dissolve and disappear,
leaving the parts without any mark
whatever. Blackheads are simply a
mixture of dust and dirt and secre-
tons 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 dis
solve the blackheads so they wash
right out, leaving the pores free and
clean and in their natural condition.

slightly blemishes SHOULD certainly
