Tue EASIEST WAYTO
SHAMPOO TIE HEAD

Mrs. Mae Martyr. writing in the
Oakland Tribune, on Care Of the
Hair in Summertime" says: Hot
weather months, with their dust-laden
atmosphere compel one to indulge
frequently in shampoos in order TO
keep the hair clean, nuffy and lus-
trOus.
"A delightfully."- cooling and sooth-
ing shampoo can be had with can
throx, which is very beneficial to both
hair and scalp, and so easy to use
that visiting a shampoo parlor Is IN
necessary. Get package of canthrox
and dissolve a teaspoonful in hot
water. Rubbing a little at time on
the head creates a rich, cleansing
lather that removes every particle OF
dust. dsndruff and excess OIL After
rinsing, the hair will dry quickly and
become soft, fluffy and very brilliant"
