SOCIETY APPROVES
POPULAR SHAMPOO

Few Of u. realize how many prom
incnt society women wash their own
hair" says Mae Martyr in the San Fran
cisco Gazette. This home shsmpooing
is not = fad but is due to the splendid
results obtained by the use Of a popular,
quick-dryina shampoo made by dissolv-
ing a teaspoonful Of canthrox in a cup
OF hot water.
This simple shampoo fathers freely
and %cleanscs perfectly. being equally
good for all shades Of hair. II rinscs
easily and leaves the scalp refreshed
and the hair lustrous. soft and very
fluffy. Dandruf and scalp irritation
disappear immediately.
The fact that the alkali in soap
shampoos has been found to cause
stresky. thin. dull hair may bc one Of
the reasons why society women have
taken so favorably to this splendid
shampoo in order not only to save but
beautify their hair."-Advt.
