The famous beauties of ancient and loss ancient times—Semiramis, Rhodope, Thais, Cleopatra (that peerless Greek), Campaspe, Agnes Sorol,' Jane Shore, Noll Givyn (that rogue), the Pompadour, these for suggestion—preserved their beauty because the gods were good to thom in despite of adverse circumstances. Ninon de Lenelos who was a delicious mask of ruin at ninety, so that young gallants still fought for her beaux yeux, was lovoly always becauso she took scrupulous care of her loveliness, the gods being already dead. Virtually, that is to say that tho incomparable Ninon had found somo method of skin-feeding which exactly suited her own case. Any woman who can do that has already won half her battle; for a porfect complexion is at least three parts of perfect beauty. Tho battle is to tho beautiful, more now than it ever was. But the modern woman has not time to invent her own skin-food, even if she had the knowledge of liow and why; and her skin needs feeding more than Ninon's did, if only because sho thinks and frets more.

It makes and keeps the skin pure and beautiful. It revitalises flaccid ducts and rebuilds impaired tissues. In short, it removes defects, supplies tho most wholesome nutriment, and restores the natural order. ' Valaze is, in fact, something more than a skin-food; in a way it makes healthy flesh. It fills disfiguring hollows and restores distorted or woakened curves to the gracious.- natural line and comeliness. It lifts every woman up to or back to tho ideal possibilities of her inherent advantages or physical qualities; and in multitudes of cases, perhaps tho majority, it gives a woman a finer complexion than sho over had in her life before lile.
