Health and Beauty Answers
BY MRS. NAE MARTYR

NJ. de w: If you will shampoo occa-
sionally with plain canthrox you will
be delighted al how quickly your dull,
brittle, unmanageable hair will become
soft and lustrous. Just dissolve tea
spoonful canthroX in a cup hot water
and your shampoo is ready. Rub
briskly as YOU pour little at time on
the head and it will dissolve every
atom of dust, dandruff and excessive
oil. Rinsing leaves hair and scalp i'm
maculately clean and the hair then
dries quickly and evenly.
Grace T: | would not advise taking
patent" medicines. Your worn OUT
feeling and lack of appetite indicate
sluggish. poison-laden condition OF the

dene tonic, made by dissolving u cup
ful sugar in y pint alcohol, then add
ing | ounce kardene and hot water TO
make a quart Take tablespoonful
before meals and in a short while the
blood will be free from all poisons.
Nothing can take the place Of this
simple kardene tonic as bodybuilder
and strength gIver for youth or old age.
Maude: Il would be shame to hide
the beauties OF violet blue eyes behind
[ glasses, and / truly believe YOU can
avoid wearing them if you will use this
harmless, strengthening eye-tonic: In
( to a pint of cold, clear water dissolve
an ounce crystos, then put 2 or drops

/ tos tonic reduces inflammation. over
comes the watery condition. and to
weak, dull eyes gives strength and
brilIiancy. For removing foreign
particles and taking ont soreness the
crystos eye-tonic is unsurpassed.

cheek only encourages them TO grow
thicker and heavier. Mix little pow
