A Word to our Fair Readers.—
Health the basis of Beauty.—Pimples, blotches, and all skin diseases. —A clear
complexion is not only essential to female loveliness, but it is equally an
external evidence of health_ while sallowness, pimples, and all cutaneous
eruptions are indicative of a disturbed condition of the stomach liver. Upon
these organs the famous aperient and tonic known as Holloway's Pills, act with a
directness, precision, and rapidity unparalleled in Medical Science, while the
Ointment purges the vesicles of the skin, and imparts a brilliancy and roseate
tint to that delicate envelope. All who value health and beauty should beware of
tampering with cosmetics, as they are not only pernicious but highly dangerous
to health.

morning.

morning, it eradicates all Tan, Pimples, and Freckles, rendering the skin soft
and white, and free from blemish. Price 75 Cents. For sale by all Druggists.
