THOUSANDS 0F WOMEN

Black and White Beauty Trail" draws many new
 followers each year.

When the discoverers of the marvellous Black and White Beauty creations first announced to the girls and women Of this country that they had at last perfected a ions, it was regarded simply another wild claim which would explode when put to prac tical use.
 But as each year has passed since that memorable day Gin June, ls16) the fig ures show that large numbers of new con verts have been added to the Black and White label. until now Black and White Creations are selling at the phenomenal rate of more than eight million packages year.
 for the tremendous popularity and big sale of Black and White Beauty Crea- tions. one of the chemists said: To us it is nothing out of the ordinary for such Black and White Beauty Creations as Cleansing Cream and Peroxide Cream to get such universal approval among girls and women everywhere. These enormous sales mean but one thing. and that is actually accomplishing what women ex- pect in caring for their complexion to keep it looking smooth and clear without a lot of trouble.
 "One or two packages are sold in 3 neirhborhood through the advertising and twenty more are brought there because the first ones bring such astonishing results People are always ready to tell others about a method which helps them accom- plish what other things failed to do"
 Not week passes that fails to bring out hundreds of statements from girls and women about the wonderful results they get in correcting bad complexion, by using Black and White Cleansing. and Peroxide Cream. This alone is sufficient to explain the phenomenal sale of the Black and White Beauty Creations, and is the best reason power on earth car keep them off the dressing tables of girls and women all over the country.
