| A Beauty Tip For The I
t Thin Or Wrinkled ;
j \
If you are thin or wrinkled or if your
pink complexion is fading', don't think
that it is necessary to he treated by an
expensive beauty specialist or resign
yourself to looking years older than
you really are. Right in your own homo
and without the knowledge of anyone,
you can remove your wrinkles and
make yourself plump and attractive.
Simply get a little am-o-nized cocoa
from your druggist and after washing
your face with warm water apply this
as you would an ordinary cold cream;
leave on for a few minutes and then
wipe off with a soft dry cloth. Noth
ing else is required. You will be de
lighted to see how quickly this nourish
ing and pleasant treatment will remove
your wrinkles and plump out hollows
in face or neck. Besides it gives to
the complexion that fresh and charm
ing appearance that always makes a
woman look young and attractive. Am
o-nized cocoa has become very popular
of late with actresses and society
ladies who appreciate the advantage or
having a clear, smooth skin, free from
lines and wrinkles.—Advertisement.

COOL AIR ON HOT
SWOLLEN FEET
If you want to save your poor feet
from agony if you want to chase
away corns, callouses and bunions
if you want your feet to feel all the
time as though a draft of pure, sweet
air was being wafted through your
shoes —just go to H. C. Kennedy or
any druggist and ask for EZO, the
wonderful new foot balm. Rub it into
your tired, swollen or aching feet be
fore you go to bed and you'll bo sorry
you didn't try it long ago.
No matter how many fussy foot
remedies you have tried, there's only
one that's absolutely certain—that's
EZO—Advt.

Often Tuberculosis
Is Much Relieved
by what may be called the "natural"
treatment. This is based on plenty of
fresh air, a sufficiency of well-cooked,
pure food and a large measure of rest.
This treatment does not always )
secure the desired results. Sometimes
there is need for medication in order I
to bring about the requisite body re- |
sistance. A system weakened by in
fection must be strengthened.
In such cases Eskman's Alterative
has been used with a large measure of 1
success. Indeed, in many instances, 1
this affection apparently has yielded to ,
it. And sufferers from asthma ano "
chronic bronchitis have tound it affcc- 1
tlve in t'hese troubles, which sometimes
lead to tuberculosis, In any case. It is
! worth a trial; and, since It contains no "
opiates, narcotics or habit-forming
drugs, its use is safe. From your drug- '
| gist.

Why Stay Fat?
You Can Reduce
The answer of most fat people is that it)
is too hard, too troublesome and too danger
ous to force the weight down. However, in
Marmola Prescription Tablets, all these dif
ficulties are overcome. They are absolutely
harmless, entail no dieting or exercise, ana
have the added advantage of cheapness. A
; large case is sold by druggists at 75c. Or
if preferable, they can be obtained by send
! ing price direct to the Marmola Co., 564
Woodward Ave., Detroit, Mich. Now that
you know this you have no excuse for be
ing too fat, but can reduce two, three or
four pounds a week without iear of bad
after-effects.
