NINETY PER GENT OF
 GIRLS ARE VICTIMS
Glaring truth brought out by recent investigation of
 widely used method.

The tremendous sale of the Beauty Creations which are being sold under the now famous Black and White label and which have caused so much discussion among beauty and skin specialists has re- suited in a thorough sitting out of val uable information.
 Girls and women who have bad com plexions, and who have been trying first one thing then another to bring that clear. rosy and pleasing appearance to their faces can trace their failure to just one thing, and that is-the methods they have been using do not get lasting results.
 It is true that many things have been offered to them through flashy adver- Using, promising instant and almost over- night relief from pimples, blotches, rough or sailow skin. and all too unsuspec ting in their eagerness to be attractive they be- lieve it.
 But not until the now famous Black and White Beauty Creations were per fected a few years ago had anything really reliable been available This is proven by the many girls and women who regularly use Black and White Cleansing Cream, Peroxide Cream. Soap and the many others to meet every need in the care of their complexions and which is the reason Black and White Beauty Crea- tions are being sold so widely.

Philip decided that the evening OF
their homecoming and the felici-

something definite in his life. It
was the elimination Of q week Of
unparalleled happiness. the last Of
the exciting days Of courtship and
honeymoon, the finale to years Of
irresponsibility, the end Of his
boyliood.
Life settled itself grimly into a
groove. His friends welcomed him
back to the insurance office, and
ne matched quarters with them
again for play in the card
machines, and ate lunch in their
company from the free lunch
counters. The grind Of office

she admired his strength and
liked its display. With her
small fingers she would try to
make an impression on his hard,
contracted biceps, striving to pinch
the rigid. iron-hard flesh, and
she would thump his bare chest
with her small fists and laugh at
her ridiculous efforts. They were
always laughing together, and
there was wonder and admiration
of each other in their mirth. He
marveled at her feminineness, her
daintiness, her cunning manner

rocks and poked their fingers into

they rode to Monterey and inves-

shells and curios they found there
