A CLEAR COMPLEXION. Dryness or harshness of the skin is frequently due to tho use of soaps containing excess of alkali. Sometimes _it is caused by hard water'with its skinroughening ingredients of lime and noxious salts, or. by preparations containing an excess of alcohol, such as Eau-de-Cologne. When, in addition to this, the skin is much exposed to winds,_ dust, and. sun, thero is no wonder that it becomes deprived of its life's sap and of natural lustre, and falls into unsightly corrugations and deep lines. Now, instead of using soap and water when the skin is not in a condition to tolerate them, or when it is excessively dry, it should be cleansed with Novena Cerate. This is done by rubbing tho Novena Cerate well into the skin, leaving it on for some minutes, and then wiping it oft with a soft towel. In this way the pores give up all dirt, the skin is more thoroughly cleansed than can bo done by soap 'and water, whilo it will 1m nourished and grow more succulent and 6oft and smooth. ■ • , • Valazo Skin Food, a remarkable beautifier should bo used 'in all cases on account of its tonic properties, which keep tho skin in healthful stimulation, and consequently, sound, smooth, and supple.
