For Itching Torture
l.MWI Hill

There is one remedy that seldom fails
to stop itching torture and relieve skin
irritation and that makes the skin soft
clear and healthy.'
i Any dnn-gist can supply you with
temo, which generally overcomes all
skin diseases. Acne, eczema, itch, pim
ples, rar-hes, blackheads, in most cases
give way to sremo. Frequently, minor
blemishes disappear overnight. Itohinff
i usually stops instantly. Zemo is a safe,
antiseptic liquid, clean, easy to use and
dependable. It costs only 33c; an extra I
, large bottle, $1.00. It will not stnin, is
i not greasy or sticky and is positivelj
i safe for tender, senritive skins.
