How to Peel Off o I Weatherbeaten Face !

It's really a simple matter to renovaf.e a face soiled by dirt, wind or cold. Ordinary mercoliaed wax, used like cold cream, will transform the worst old complexion into one of snowy whiteness and velvety softness. It literally peels off the outer veil of surface skin, but so gently, gradually, there's no discomfort. The wornout skin comes off, not In patches, but evenly, In tiny particles, leaving no evidences of the treatment. The younger, healthier under-skin forming .the new complexion is one of captivating loveliness. Oae ounce of mercolized wax, to be had at any drug store, is enough to remove any coarse, chapped, pimpled, freckled, faded or sallow skin. Apply before retiring, --washing it off mornings. Many skins wrinkle easily with 'every wind that blows. An excellent wrinkle-remover, because it tightens the skin and strengthens relaxed muscles, is a -.ash lotion made as follows: Powdered saxolite, 1 oi., dissolved in witch hazel, one-half pint. This gives immediate results. ad

JENKINS DIAMONDS

Make Ideal Gifts See Our Solitaire Cluster 7 Diamonds Set As One The brilliancy of the diamond depends largely on its mounting. A Tiffany mounting produces the maximum reflective powers of the Solitaire. Now a new process has been discovered for grouping several stones in one mounting so that only diamond surface is exposed, giving to the duster the appearance and all the beauty, brilliancy and effect of the Solitaire. This is accomplished only by using seven brilliant well matched, pure white full-cut genuine diamonds and assembling them in the famous solitaire cluster.
