To Help Nature Shed a Bad Complexion Beauty devotees are enthusiastic over the beautifying qualities of mercolised wax. Nothing discovered within recent years ac complishes so much, so quickly, without harm, at such small expense. The principal reason for its wonderful merit is that it works th harmony with physiological laws. Instead of hiding complexion defects, it re moves them. It actually takes off tha aged, faded, sallow, freckled or blotchy surface skin gently,- gradually, causing no incon venience. It Is Nature's way of renewing complexions. .... When the natural process is retarded be cause of deficient circulation or nerv tone, mercolised wax comes to the rescue and hastens the skin shedding. The new com plexion which appears is a natural one, youthful, healthy, exquisitely beautiful. It you've never tried mercolized wax, get an ounea of it at the drug store, use at night like cold cream, washing it off in the morning.- Advertisement.
