How to Prepare
Your Own Shampoo

"A bountiful growth of soft, luxuri-
ant hair can be every woman's legacy
hair whose shimmery. silky strands
and go In place as II by magic" writes
Mrs. Mae Martyr. in the Los Angeles
Bulletin. mo great effort is required.
but the right sort of treatment should
be given It. Shampooing with hurtful
preparations must be avoided-in fact.
the only safe shampoo to use is plain
canthrox, a teaspoonful Of which dis
solved in q cup hot water is enough for
a satisfactory shampoo.
"The canthrox mixture creates a
wealth Of rich, cleansing lather that
gently penetrates and loosens all dead
tissue, stops irritation and neutralizes
excess oil. When the head is r1nsed
the scalp and hair are spotlessly clean,
and the hair takes on q rich tone and
mystic charm. Occasional shampoos
with canthrox will induce the hair to
grow abundantly and take on an even
color that greatly adds to personal
charm"
