SURE WAY TO GET
RID Of DANDRUFF
End Itching Scalp and Stop Falling
Hair-At Once

There is one sure way that never fails
to remove dandruff completely and that
is to dissolve it. This destroys it en-
tirely. To do this, just get about four
ounces of plain, ordinary liquid arvon !;
apply it at night when retiring; use
enough to moisten the scalp and rub it
in gently with the finger tips.
BY morning most, if not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or four
more applications will completely dis
solve and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace of it no matter how
much dandruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop in.
stantly, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy. silky and soft, and
look and feel hundred times better.
If you want to keep your hair look
ing rich, do by all means get rid of dan.
druff for nothing destroys the hair so
quickly. 1t not only starves the hair
and makes it fall out, but it makes it
stringy, straggly, dull, dry, brittle and
lifeless. and everybody notices it. You
can get liquid arvon at any drug store.
1t is inexpensive, and four ounces is all
YOU will need. This simple remedy has
never been known to fail Adv.
