It is the ideal Cosmetic. It stimulates
the nerves, quickens circulation and carries
away dead particles of the skin, leaving it
fine and clear. It has no equal for Chap
ped Hands, Lips, Face, or roughness of the
skin, and is not excelled as a dressing for
the face after shaving. It is a bland,
creamy emulsion, with just enough vege
table oil to soften the skin. No lady or
gentleman should be without it. Be sure
to get the genuine. Take no substitute.
