FRECKLES
Wt Hid Them With a Veil) Remove

This prescription for the removal of
freckles was written by a prominent
physician and is usually so successful
in removing freckles snd giving a
clear, beautiful complexion that it is
sold by any druggist under guarantee
to refund the money if it fails.
Don't hide your freckles under a
veil; get an ounce of othin and re
move them. Even the first few appli
cations should show a wonderful im
provement, some of the lighter freck-
es vanishing entirely.
Be sure to ask the druggist for the
double strength othine; it is this that
is sold en th money-pack guarantee.
