Quinn Explains Why Ele: trolysis Should Never Fail. Mr. Quinn says: Science knows no way to kill tife hair roots except jelectrolysis. This method absolutely | destroys the hair papillae and a new growth {s impossible.” “A skilled operator inserts the tiny electric needle into the hair follicle without touching the tissue at all, but simply follows the course of the hair until the point of the needle touches the root. This destroys the hair without any unpleasantness and without the slightest injury to the skin.” “In the hands of an unskilled oper- ator the needle crosses the hair shaft and enters the tissue without touch- ing the hair root. This causes un- necessary pain, a noticeable scar ap- pears and the hair returns with in- creased strength.” Mr. Quinn guarantees to return every cent paid him for treatment unless his patrons are entirely satis- fled. He invites those tnterested to visit his offices in the Monolith Bldg., 45 West 34th st., so that he may dem- onstrate his treatment and expiain the value and importance of the re- cently invented equipment he has in- stalled, ° Lifts the Pressure There's a special construction in the COWARD BUNION SHOE which provides room for the enlarged joint, lifts the pressure, protects it against chafing, and allows the painful swelling to sub- side.
