Now suppose, just for a change, you read your local
paper carefully, watch the advertisements, and if you don’t
sec what you want ask the home merchant for it. Suppose
all of us trnde at home a little more regularly. That ought
to help make this a better town.

Sallowness Transformed
to Dusky Beauty
A dark skin becomes fascinating
when delicately »oft, underspread
with the radiant glow which indi­
cates a healthy, active skin. Robert -
ine keeps the skin refined in quality,
keeps pores free from clogging waste
and stimulates the tiny capillariesto
contribute the color which charms in
blonde and brunette alike. Robert-
ine is certain protection against tan,
sunburn and freckles if applied be­
fore exposure to sun or wind.
Spreads like an imperceptible sheen
of gaure over skin surface, forming a
shield stimulating and preserving a
I delicate, lustrous beauty.
