DECKLE-EDGE FRECKLES

Summer begins June 20. By this time your freckles ought to have a good start.

Do you know what a freckle is, children? It is a golden-brown splash on the northwest corner of a young woman's nose, although her dearest friend says it is a fright.

A freckle is the same to a druggist as a pipe line is to Rockefeller--ready money and a lot of it.

One large deckle-edge freckle will cause a girl to buy nine kinds of cold cream, a dozen lemons, a pint of three-ply acid, and a gross of poudre-de-phiz every Sat.u.r.day afternoon.

All this gives vigor to the freckle.

This kind has never been known to fail in getting to a head.

"Kernels" of Barleycorn originated in Kentucky.
