An eminent skin specialist recently discovered a new drug ,othine—double strength, which is so uniformly suc- cessful in removing freckles and giv- ing a clear, beautiful complexion that it is sold by the Lee & Osgood Co. under an absolute guarantee to refund the money if it fails. Don’t hide your freckles under a veil; get an ounce of othine and re- move them. Even the first night's use will show a wonderful improve- ment, some of the lighter freckles vanishing entirely. It is absolutely harmless, and cannot injure the most tender skin. Be sure to ask for the double strength othine; it is this that is sold on the money back guarantee. JEWETT CITY John P.
