DOCTORS CONDEMN SO-CALLED SUPERFLUOUS HAIR “CURES" While there may be no perceptible harm noticeable with the first few ap plications of the numerous so-called superfluous hair "cures" other than causing slight skin troubles and an in creased growth, real danger and disfig urement lurk in their frequent use, which, if continued, will produce ecze ma or other serious skin diseases Furthermore, after each lemoval. the hair grows out again more rapidly, coarser and stiffer than before and eventually it will become so coarse that no preparation "ill be strong enough to remove it without ruining the skin. It is surprising that these unknown and uncertain means should be em ployed when there is such a reliable and trustworthy preparation as De- Miracle, the only absolutely non-pois onous depilatory that dissolves hair, thereby taking the vitality out of it. consequently retarding and preventing an increased growth. Beware of the imitator who resorts to copying certain phrases of the De- Miracle advertising to inveigle you into using a worthless, poisonous concoc tion. When a faker tries to deceive and delude you by alluring and im possible claims, tell him that DeMiracle Chemical Company will forfeit Five Thousand Dollars if it can be proven that any so-called superfluous hair “cure" ever eradicated one single growth of superfluous hair. Insist on proof tvhen a claim is made that such a. preparation is "indorsed by the medi cal profession." DeMiracle is the only depilatory that htfh ever been indorsed by reputable Use Georgian Want Ads physician-, surgeons, dermatologists, medical journals, prominent magazines and newspapers. To substantiate our claim, we "ill send copies of the testi monials on request. Only goods of merit can stand the test of time. The mere fact that fake dangerous preparations are short-lived should alone be sufficient warning to avoid the use of any depilatory but that of proven merit. DeMiracle was the largest selling depilatory ten yeais ago and more of it has been sold each year since than the combined sales of the nostrums. All reliable dealers sell and recom mend DeMiracle, knowing it to be the best and safest depilatory.
