Every Woman can be Beautiful

If she will take care of her complexion, for a fair complexion is beauty.
Wisdom's Robertine, the great beautifier, preserves and beautifies the
skin, removes blotches, pimples, tan, sunburn, freckles and all other
blemishes. It is a hygienic preparation that is perfectly harmless, pleas-
ant and refreshing to use. There is no other preparation on the market
to-day that is as satisfactory as Wisdom's. This is the verdict of every
woman who has tried it.
AT ALL DRUGGISTS.
