1t is worth it, as it does the work, and
1t is seldom necessary to apply it more

Jane: 1t is anonying to have an itchy
scalp, but you can easily correct this and
keep it sweet and clean, and in a healthy
vigorous condition if you use a canthroX
shampoo. You can prepare this at trifling

scalp vigorously, then rinsing thoroughly,
removes dust and dandruff, and adds new
life to the scalp and lustre to the hair.
With this shampoo the hair dries quickly
and is not stringy or hard to do up.
Brown Eyes: "a Before you buy eye

Beautiful Hair
Not Hard to Have
(Mme. Linar in Fashion Monthly


1T is not so difficult to keep the
hair in good condition as many dis
couraged women believe. The head
should not be washed oftener than
once in two or three months. Water
and the alkali found in many soaps
tend to make the hair coarse, brittle
and matted.
MANY heads are covered tlninly
with faded hair today because of too
much moisture.
DRY shampooing is common
sense, satisfactory method of keeping
the hair in condition. 1t can be done
quickly-before dressing the hair for
any special occasion. Put four ounces
of amotone in jar and mix with 1t
half a pound of corn meal, either
white or yellow. Sprinkle a table
spoonful of this mixture on the head
once or twice week and brush thor
