Sagging or Hanging Cheeks and Chin
(From Woman's Magazine)

Flabbiness of cheeks, chin or neck has been considered very difficult to correct, until the recent discovery of a veritable wonder-worker for such conditions.

The preparation is so simple and harmless any woman can easily make and apply it. It is all the more remarkable in that its beneficial effects are apparent even after the first application, both as to appearances and the feeling of comfort produced.

The formula is: Powdered saxolite, 1 oz., dissolved in 1 pt. witch hazel. Use daily as a wash lotion. The solution tends to contract and solidify the loosened, baggy tissue, smoothing out the folds, creases, and wrinkles, besides having a refining influence on skin of coarse texture and large pores. As witch hazel and saxolite can be had at any drug-store at little cost, many will doubtless be glad to have this successful recipe.
