Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 38, Number 18, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 13 October 1905 — For Removing a Wrinkle. [ARTICLE]

For Removing a Wrinkle.

Just think of paying SI,OOO for having one wrinkle removed. That’s what a well-known New York society leader has paid, and without a doubt there are many others who w’ould be willing to pay just such an exorbitant price if they had it for the same purpose. Authorities along these lines are demanding large sums for beautifying women’s faces. It is not an easy task and means much suffering for the woman. The injection of paraffin is one of the well-known remedies for this shortcoming. The process Is painful, the paraffin being injected underneath the skin by a hypodermic needle and allowed to remain there, harden and become a part of the membrane tissue, which it does in time. It is a good remedy. The wrinkle Is sure to disappear, and there are more women than one would surmise who are undergoing such a treatment. Softie of the society leaders who have gone v»est, for a rest, as they say, have in reality secluded themselves for a time with doctors of beauty and upon making their reappearance in society are indeed creatures of beauty. Their complexions are beautified, white and pink, without a blemish, and they have regained their good humor and look like young matrons just entering their second year of married life, Instead of contemplating the celebration of their twentyfifth.
