A SHRINE IN LONDON.

NEOPHYTIiS AND THE PRIESTESS. Dear. Ladies,—Sinco I last- thus, publicly addressed my fair friends in the. Sunny South, I have been even busier than before. Not only have I ransacked the world's laboratories for you who so profitably pursue the- Cult .■ of Beauty—not only have I sedulously sought the latest specifics and delicacies for the complexion—but I hare carried the gospel of my methods' and your joy into the world's metropolis and made Beoure' my .seat in mighty London. In that historic centre of 1 aristocracy, Mayfair, I have taken and fitted a famous mansion, once and for long tho town residence of the Marquess of Salisbury.,- Here, .where for centuries gay cavaliers and noble ladies have lived and loitered, I have established my Maisbn de Beaute Valaze. This is now the chief shririe of the Cult .of .'Beauty. Here the edifice of Beauty Culture is builded on a scale without precedent in the world, and Valaze is the corner-stone. It is a great thing that I'have , been able to do; but success was easy in the main essential. Valaze came, and saw, and conquered. Englishwomen tested the new delight, and their verdict was unanimous, enthusiastic', overwhelming. Duchesses, merchants' wives and daughters, dowagers,- matrons, buds—all swell the gladsome tribute. From the Head" Depot (the Central Shrine) at 24 Grafton Street, the white jars of Valaze that 6tream to the homes of tho world's fairest women are as the stars for multitude." At 24 Grafton Street I am welcoming Australasian friends all the time. Who should bo welcomo if not they? The press of-England gives me full recognition of the heartiest praise. "The Queen" cries that "we have among us a very Drtiiel come to judgment in the art of ■ beauty-culture." The "Evening Standard and St. James's Gazette" says: "Mile. Rubinstein is becoming > one of the most talked-of 'women in London, so rapidly has tho name of her successful treatment and the intrinsic value of her preparations spread." "The World," hailing me as one of the greatest authorities in the world on matters pertaining to the skin, say 6 that all my preparations are "widely known and immensely appreciated." "Hearth and Home" testifies that too much cannot be said of the value of Valaze. "The Lady" and "The Gentlewoman" join heartily in the chorus. "The Sketch" gives evidence that I have been "welcomed with a rush." It is all very comforting and delightful, and there is a wonderful lot of it—all praise without stint, all enthusiasm unreserved. Why I ask you, WHY? I shall tell you why, mes amies. Because Valaze is the most perfect preparation'for the complexion that ever added lustre to tho glorious record of scientific research. Because Valaze is utterly unlike the thousands of skin-foods so-called—tho vapid, useless, nondescript nostrums that the skin is better without than with. Because Valaze sinks to the deepest strata of the skin, revitalises the deepest tissues, cloanses and energises the deepes cells: because it works thoroughly and surelj"as Nature herself: because it perfects the health and purity of the skin, gives exquisite colour and tone, delicious freshness, absolute Beauty. That is why Valaz is better than a,ll its stand all strain and stress of weather and of climate, to be independent of heat and cold, of aridity and of moisture. That is why Valaze is better than all its promises.

Valazo is -not omnipotent—l know that quite well. But what it does it does superbly, and what it does nothing else can do so well. Bccauso Valaze is not a cure-all, I supply other exclusive preparations, its proper auxiTiaries and associates. If you desire information and guidance, write for my new booklet, "Beauty in the Making"—3d. or free with any order.—Your devoted

"Woods's Peppermint Cure appears to bring Your trado. amongst tho snuggest, I 'spose it won't euro everything?" "Well, no," replied the druggist. "It won't cure everything, at least, Unless I'm much mistaken!" "What won't it ouro in man or beast?". Said he: "It won't ouie bacon!" 3
