DANDRUff SOON

Makes il Lifelsss, Dull, Dry, Brittle
and Thin.

Girls-if you want plenty of thick,
beautiful. glossy. silky hair. do by all
means get rid of dandruff, for it will
starve your hair and ruin it If you
don't.
It doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it out. The only sure
way to get rid of dandruff is to dis
solve it, then you destroy it entirely,
To do this. get about four ounces OF
ordinary liquid arvon: apply 1t at night
when retiring: use enough to molsten
the scalp and rub it in gently with the
finger tips
BY morning, most if not all. of your
dandruff will lbe gone. and three or four
more applications will completely dis
solve and entirely destroy every sim
gle sign and trace Of it.
You will find. too, that all itching and
digging of the scalp will stop. and your
hair will be silky. fluffy. lustrous, soft,
and look and feel hundred times bet
ter. You can get liquid arvon atsa
drug store. 1t is inexpensive and four
ounces is all you will need. no matter
how much dandruff you have. This
simple remedy never fails.-Adv.
