More itching Scalp.

Within ten minutes after an appli-
cation of Danderiie you cannot find q
single trace Of dandrun or falling hair
and your scalp will not itch, but what
will please you most will be after
few. weeks use, when you see new
hair, fine and downy at first-yes-but
really new hair-growing all over the
scalp.
A little Danderine Immediately dou-
bles the beauty of your hair. No diff
ference how dull faded, brittle and
sscraggy, just moisten a cloth with
Danderine and carefully draw 1t
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time. The effect is amaZ-
ing-your hair will be light, fluffy and
wavy, and have an appearance OF
abundance;' an incompatible luster.
softness and luxuriance.
Get a 25 cent bottle of Knowlton's
Danderine from any store, and prove
that your hair is as pretty and soft
as any-that it has been neglected or
injured by careless treatment-that's
all-you surely can have beautiful hair
and lots of it If you will just try lit
