Don't Delay, Girls: Take Advantage
of Lady Esther's Free Offer Today

When we first told you of this
remarkable crea-.-:., there were some
wonen inclined to be doubtful.
However, they figured if Lady
Esther really did all she claimed,
she at least would be worth a
trial.
Now-well, after the first appli-
cation of Lady Esther Face Cream
they were absolutely sold on it..
Their complexions-you should see
them-so delicately smooth and
clear. Only days of loneliness and
exquisite charm ahead.
Why not be beautiful like other
women who use this wonderful
cream-especially when Lady Es-
Their is so generous as to give you
special offer. of a 25-cent proof
jar absolutely free when you pur-
chase any regular size jar at SOC
or 75c. Use the proof jar first
(last 10 days) and if you don't
say it is the finest cream you ever
used, return the regular size jar
and get your money back. Thou
