"A woman. has written to this

most awfullest looking thing for

long time, I fear, before you can
collect sufficient money to have

even thought you may have only
your earnings to roy on, should
not in time indulge in your
hearts desire, new and pretty
nose. Personally. / know three
young women who have vastly
improved their appearance without
any bad results, by means of the
plastic operation on the nose.
But. be sure to choose a regis
tered surgeon OF unquestioned

powder puff.
