THE SECRET OF A 
GOOD COMPLEXION. 
By MME. ST. CLAIRE. 
i\NV woman nowadays may quickly rejuvenate her com- 
plexion at home by a safe and painless process of gentle 
absorption. The days of expensive and dangerous 
" operations " are past, and each woman can be her own 
beauty doctor. It has been discovered that ordinary 
mercolised wax, applied like cold cream, at night, will cause 
the thin veil of lifeless, sallow or blotchy cuticle to gradually 
and gently flake off in invisible, flour-like particles, re- 
vealing the fresh, vigorous and beautiful young skin under- 
neath. Mercolised wax absorbs, only the unhealthy and 
unsightly outer fiim, and does not affect the healthy tissue 
at all. 
The process defies detection, and un\-eils a lasting and 
beautiful complexion, which is, of course, a perfectly natural 
one. For this purpose thousands of women are now using 
mercolised wax, which may be obtained at any chemist's. 
Naturally, the process also removes all such surface blemishes 
as freckles, blotches, pimples, tan, liver spots, etc. It makes 
the face look years younger and prettier, and renders the use 
of face creams unnecessary.

.Another valuable piece of information, which many 
women will appreciate, concerns the success of the new 
Ireatment for superfluous hair. A remedy for permanently 
eradicating this ugly form of facial disligurement now 
seems to have been found. It is simplicity itself. About 
one ounce of ordinary pure powdered pheminol, which can 
be obtained at any chemist's, is all that is needed to put one 
in the way of completely ridding oneself of superfluous hair. 
\Vlien applied to the obnoxious growth this causes it to 
immediately disappear, and the continuance of the recom- 
mended treatment is said to finally destroy the hair roots, 
so that there will be no renewal of the growth.

foot-heaviness from which so many

ordinary Puttees which must be 
tightly wound to keep in position.
