Buttermilk Cream creates beauty almost like magic. The most wonderful thing about it is the fact that whilst it turns the dullest, most lifeless complexion to radiant beauty and makes red or rough hands or arms white, yet there is not the slig! est sign of its use after applica- tion. It actually vanishes from sight and the most heated atmos- phere will not produce the least shininess or greasiness of the kin. No matter whether you are trou- bled with a_poor complexion, wrinkles, puffine; around the eyes, freckles, crows feet or lines around the mouth, ugly finger nails, or just a simple roughness of the face, hands or arms caused by wind or sun, you will find that any or all of these troubles will| quickly disappear with the use of Howard's Buttermilk Cream.
