This Quickly CleanseS
Both Hair and Scalp.

"A harmless and entirely satisfactory
shampoo can be enjoyed at little ex-
pense." says Mrs. Mae Martyr in the
Los Angeles Leader, 'ff you get an
original package of canthrox from your
druggist and Dissolve a teaspoonful in
a cup OF hot mater. This is enough
mixture for a thorough cleansing of both
hair and scalp.
"The canthrox mixture makes a wealth
OF rich, white lather that dissolves every
atom Of dust, dandruff, and excess oil.
Rinsing leaves the hair and scalp i'm
clean, and after a canthrox
shampoo the hair dries quickly and even
~, taking on such rich gloss and soft
ness. so that doing Il up is a genuine
pleasure. Occasional shampooing with
canthrpx keeps the scalp clean and
plant and in 1uces a heavy growth OF
beautiful, lustrous hair"

SupersedeS Massage
as Wrinkle Remover,
the woman Beautifully

Many women regularly visit the beauty
specialist TO have their wrinkles ironed
out with the help of hot applications,
cold creams and massage. Most of us
realize that there comes a time when
no amount Of persuasian OF this sort will
avail. This process of wrinkle remov-
ing is wrong in principle. Both the hot
water. and the massaging tend to expand
and loosen the skin. besides softening
the muscular foundation.
The very opposite result should be aim
ed at. The tissue should be STRENGTHENED,
the skin frightened, so there'll be no room
for wrinkles. The best known prepara-
tion for the purpose can be made at
home by dissolving OF. saxolite in n
pint witch hazel Use as wash lotion
The effect is really marvslous. Tell
Abe druggist you want the powdered
1aHts, which dissolyes immediately.

Now, most women, especially those
devotees of fashion who have Whitfield
their figures down to the last fraction
by dint OF much corseting and wrong
diet, won't approve Of these figures.
Naturally not. These proportions mean
health, seldom synonymous with fash
ion; yet If you put a woman of ideal
proportions according to the chart and
place her near one of our fashionable
lay figures, unless you have no real eye
for beauty, you will vote for the ideal
proportions not the fashionable one.
