BEWARE OF THAT FIRST GRAY
HAIR
Grayness is not always a sign
OF old age. as commonly sup
posed. Ii it were it would not
appear on the heads OF very young
adults. Even children have 1t
sometimes. Premature grayness
and loss OF. hair often can be
traced to disease, head neuralgia,
mental worry and enervatinG
habits. which should be corrected
and a vigorous campaign com
menced to check the falling hair
and restore the coloring matter by
scientific treatment. When the
trouble is only local it can be
treated and greatly benefited with
a good hair tonic and massage.
Beoin now. Don't wait and put
it off until tomorrow. Tomorrow
is ALWAYS in the future and never
comes. Don't think if you buy a
bottle OF hair tonic and place 1t
on a shelf and forget all about it
effectively that you can expect
Your subconscious mind to be
able to extract all the nutriment
therefrom and produce a luNur-
liant head OF hair without any ef-
fort on your part.
If YOU would be beautiful you
must pay the price. You know
people never appreciate things
that they get for nothing. The
price is work, hard work, work
that never stops for a minute. You
cannot afford to neglect yourself.
The older you grow the more
grooming you require.
Cleanliness is of vital impor-
tance in the hygienic care Of the
hair and scalp. Upon it depends
the hairs longevity, as we'll as a
condition favorable for its growth.
Hair is not a collection Of weeds
depending upon dirt for susten-
ance. A good shampoo with soft
water and pure soap once a
month is essential. Be sure to
use plenty of rinsing water.
The night preceding the sham
poo, rub oil or vaseline well into
the scalp with the finger tips and
carefully examine the ends or tips
Of the hair.
Hair, when healthy, has acutcly
shaped points, and Nature, when
she makes point, makes one
that will bear the closest inspec-
ton When the hair becomes dis
cased the point splits and if the
split ends are not clipped or
singed, as they should be. the
cleft extends farther and farther
up the shaft until the greater por-
ton OF it is ruined, as the ragged
ends are continually snarling and
are being broken off by friction in
combing. The present style oI
hairdressing and rafting to make
the hair stand out from the head
Is disastrous to the healthy condi-
ton Of the hair.
DPVIMG THE IAIP
Dry the hair in the sunshine
or with an electric DRYER. The
hair and scalp require vcntila-
ton, nourishment and exercise, as
