HOME MADE QUININE
 HAIR TONIC

The high cost of @ good quinine hair tonic prevents thousands of men and women from using such a prepara tion daily on the hair. This has resulted in the study and investigation of the sub feet by some bright men and women who use quinine hair tonic regularly but who do not care to pay for the ex- pensive ready-made tonics. They find that by simply mixing one ounce of Beta -Quinol with half a pint of water and half pint of alcohol that they can make more than full pint of quinine hair tonic of better quality and more beneficial to the hair than any of the widely advertised brands A tonic made as described here will help the hair to become beautiful, glossy, long ana abundant. It tends to prevent dandruff and falling hair and keep the scalp in a healthy condition. This home made tonic is used by women who have most beautiful hair and plenty of 1t as well as those whose hair and scalp are not in perfect condition. The Beta Quinol and alcohol can be procured at any drug store for 75c or soc and they win make more and better hair tonic than you could buy for $2.0O in A manufactured state.
