To Keep the Hair
 Healthy and Growing

tMar1on Harlow in Women's Sphere)
 A perfect and most inexpensive dry shampoo mixture is made simply by mixing a half pound of corn meal with Tour ounces of amotone. Put in a fruit jar and stir and shake until thorough ly mixed. Sprinkle a tablespoonful of this mixture over the hair, then brush out thoroughly and your scalp will be clean and your hair light and fluffy Tt takes out every particle of oil dust and dandruff, brings out the nat ural color of the hair-and if anything will make hair grow amotone will.
 Too much soap and water cause the hair to become faded dull and brittle. Dry shampooing makes it long. thick and glossy. Then, too, hours of time are saved and there is no danger of catching cold after a dry shampoo
