SUPERFLUOUS HAIR.
Few things are more annoying to refined and sensitive ladies than superfluous hair on any part of the face or body, and it is with real pleasure that wo publish herewith a recipe received from n reader who states that by its use she in a, very short time completely and permanently removed a stubborn growth of hair from her upper lip and chin. This recipe calls for 4£ drams Pulverised Sulthirie Concentrate, 2-J drams Zinc Oxide, P.B. and 1 dram of powdered Orris Root, which should be thoroughly mixed and put in a wide. mouth bottle. For use, mix a little of the powder into a paste on a plate by adding a few drops of water. Apply with a narrow knife blade and remove at the end of two minutes with: the back of t,he knife, when the dissolved hair will come with it. Repeat at intervals of two days. Each time the growth will be less, until it entirely disappears. A good non-greasv cream', such as Crorne To-Kalon, may fee used after each application. Caution.—Gentlemen' must Soi use this as a .substitute for shaving, as its repeated us© completely destroys the hair roots.
