Wear a Flanders Poppy!
Armistice
DAY
REMEMBER! NOVEMBER 11TH.

This distress is shared by their dependants. Take up this quarrel by giving a little more for · your poppy- than you did last year.

CAN BE YOURS. BY USING
ELIZABETH ARDEN PREPARATIONS
Many skins are marked by Blackheads, Pimples, Spots and other Eruptions, so before one can have a smooth clear skin these ugly blemishes must be removed. After the skin has been cleansed and toned with CLEANSING CREAM and SKLY TONIC those who have blackheads should use VENETIAN BEAUTY SACHETS, as these soften the pores and draw the black- heads to the surface. After the blackheads have been. removed PORE CREAM- must be applied to refine and close up the Pores.
VENETIAN HEALING CREAM is excellent for Erup- tions and Pimples. It should be lightly applied over the affected spots as soon as they appear.
VENETIAN ACNÉ LOTION can be used as a Powder Foundation over Spots and Pimples. It is an antiseptic healing Lotion which frees the skin of all Eruptions.
