MAKES HIS OWN HAIR TONIC AND SAVES
 MONEY M

The average man when he pays 15c for one application of a hair tonic thinks he is paying a pretty good price, but nevertheless the lbarber isn't making as much money as his customer supposes. The ready-to-uSe quinine hair tonics of real merit are expensive preparations, costing S1.00 and $1.50 for small bottles But there is one progressive barber who has found way to satisfy his custom CTS and more than "break even" on the use of quinine hair tonic. He makes it himself, using only one ounce of Beta -Quinol and half a pint of alcohol and half pint of water. This gives him a genuine and excellent qui- nine hair tonic for about one-th ird the usual cost. His own preparation pleases his customers better than the hieher-priced tonics he formerly used. There is nothing better than Beta Qui- mol for the hair, for it keeps the scalp in a clean and healthy condition. re- moves dandruff and makes the hair sof+ and luxuriant. This home-mada Reta Ouinol hair tonic has stopped falling hair on many of the barber's natrons. He has given his recipe to several of them and his customers ara now making the tonic themselves. The materials can be procured at any druo store. Simply shake them well togetb. ar and they are ready to use
