Stop Itching Skin
' There is one safe, dependable treat
ment that relieves Itching torture and
skin irritation almost instantly and
that cleanses and soothes the skin.
Ask anydruggistfor a SScor $1 bottle
of Zemo and apply it as directed. Soon
you will find that irritations, pimples,
blackheads,eaema,blotches,ringworm
and similar skin troubles will disappear.
A little Zemo, the penetrating, satis
fying liquid, is all that is needed, for it
banishes most skin eruptions, makes
' the skin soft, smooth and healthy.'
