For All Complexion Ills
If the skin be colorless, sallow, muddy,
over-red, blotchy, chapped or freckled,
nothing will -*i surely overcome the con-
dition as ordinary niercollzed wax. It lit-
erally takes off a bud complexion—ab-
sorbs the dead and neardead particles of
surface skin, gently, gradually, causing no
Inconvenience at all. A new complexion
is then in evidence, clear, spotless, dell-
■ ately soft and beautiful. One ounce of
this wax, procurable at any ('rug store,
will rejuvenate even the worst complex
ion. It Is nsed like cold cream. (Adv.)
