Square Yard EASY CREDIT TERMS Painless Method Removes Tattoos Melbourne (U.PJ Tattooing is going out of fashion here, and business was never better for the skilled tatto remover. Use of a new French method for the painless removal of tat toos has become so popular that two Melbourne grandmothers. each with a tattooed anklet of swallows, have decided to part with their tattoo.marks. The The method is painless and j leaves no scar. A leading physiotherapist ex plained that the method he uses to remove tattoos freezes the area around the ' mark. This causes an irritation beneath the skiri which rises, bringing out the tattoo pigment. Within a week or two the skin heals and the tattoo is, gone. The physiotherapist declined to give his name on the ground of professional ethics. He ex plained the anti-tattoo trend with a terse, "Men don't . like them on ' women, and women don't like them on men." Many of the people who call to have their tattoos removed shyly reveal that the "Gorgeous Grace" or "Big Jim" have to come off because the husband or wife, as the case may be, want no former attachments around in tattoos. The physiotherapist blames American servicemen, nearly 2, 000,000 of whom visited Aus tralia during World War II, for Melbourne's tattooed women. He classified most of the designs on the women as "American," ex plaining tattoo styles ran to dif ferent designs m different coun tries. Furthermore, he added, most of the women who come to him were between 16 and 20 years old at the time the Yanks were here. Pad Said Step in Printing Industry Rochester, N. Y.
