For unsightly skin eruptions, rash
or blotches on face, neck, arms or
body, you do not have TO wait for re-
lief from torture or embarrassment,
declares a noted skin specialist. APP
ply little Mentho-Sulphur and inn
provement shows next day.
Because of its germ destroying
properties, nothing has ever been
found TO take the place of this sui
phur preparation. The moment you
apply II healing begins. Only those
who have had unsightly skin troubles
can know the delight this Mentho-
Sulphur brings. Even fiery, itching
eczema is dried right up.
Get a small jar of Rowles Men,
tho-Sulphur from any good druggist
and use it like cold cream.
