They ; increased so speedily that I readily ..resorted to using preparations that , "guaranteed to permanently remove them' in time.' 1 persevered, but. in two or three years, to my horror, I had the heaviest growth I've seen on any woman. I wiis too sensitive about my affliction to nek .advice of friends, and to hide it even with depilatories was only possible'for a day or two, 60 strong wns the growth. "I had rea<f many advertisements about electrolysis, but was dubious, until a few months ago a leading doctor in Wellington told me of'your skill and remarkable success, which I e.m how heartily nndorso, You reforred men to a former patient, who very kindly granted mo an interview, described her severe growth and your treatment. Her face is without a blemish or any recurrence of a growth, although it is four years since her treatment. At any time I shall bo pleased to writo personally or to interview anyone doubtful of your treatment. Tho ■little discomfort and the money spent are trilling compared with Ihe happiness and poace of mind it has brought mo. fot which I will bo for ever grateful. Wishing you every success. "Yours sincerely, "L.8.8." To Mrs. Rolleston, 25C Lambton Quay. -Advt.
