VALUABLE ADVICE FOB OBTAINING A BEAUTIFUL COMPLEXION.

BY COUitiESY OF A LADY HEADER,,

While recently glancing through a ladies' paper one of our readers noticed a simple formula said to quickly banish all skin irritations and greatly ' beautify the complexion. Having given considerable study to chemistry, she wag immediately interested by the peculiar combination of ingredients. Her skin was rough and sore from exposure to the sun and wind, so she determined to have the lotion made up at once. She applied night and morning with a soft cloth, and in l6ss than a week, all disagreeable traces of sunburn, rash, and blemishes had entirely vanished ; her complexion was soft and smooth; in fact, her appearance was so greatly improved that her own mother was astonished, and asked the caiise of the sudden transformation. This led to another trial of tho same lotion, and, despite the mother's age, her skin became clear and velvety. But what was even more amazing, the lines and wrinkles which had formed round her eyes and on hor forehencl. began to smooth out and gradually disappear. Both mother and daughter were overjoyed at this unlookecl-for result, and wondered if there was not some wny of giving the benefit of their experience to other women. They finally decided to write to one or two of the principal papers about it. Upon receiving their communication, we gladly consented to publish for those interested the valuable formula which, they had found. It calls for 2oz rosewater, ono dram tincture of benzoin, and 2 ounces Flowers of Oxzoin. tho mixture to he well shaken before using. We are informed that it is quite inexpensive, and can be made up by any good chemist, or easily prepared at home. A prominent member of the Faculty of Medicine of Paris, who specialises in the care of the skin, examined this formula for us, and states that the lotion made therefrom is perfectlv harmless, and, besides being excellent for the complexion, is also unexcelled for quickly eradicating blotches, pimples blackheads, etc., whHi are so disfiguring to the skin. * "For six years 1 nave been a sufferer from Colic," writes Mr R. C. Philps. Dutton. S.A., "but now when I get these attacks I take Chamberlain's Colic and Diarrhoea Remedy, and finds that it gives me immediate relief. I can confidently recommend it for Colic or other stomach complaints; two or tbree doses will give instant relief."
