How Out.Of-Door
Life Affects Beauty

Exposure to sun and wind, dust and
the elements, although often acting
as a tonic to the system in general
and sometimes heightening the color
of the skin, is still very damaging to
the refined appearance of the COM
plexion The open AR in itself IS
good, but the face should always be
we'll protected against the extreme
heat, wind and dust. The girls of
your acquaintance who live a great
deal out of doors by no means have
the most beautiful compilations. You
can best protect your skin against
the elements or beautify it for social
life BY a face lotion which you can
very easily make at home by getting
ounces spurmax from druggist and
dissolving it in n pint Of hot water,
to which you add teaspoonfuls or
glycerine. This lotion is easier to
apply than powder. does not rub off,
looks like part of the skin, giving
natural. velvety bloom while removing
shininess and surface discoloration
and curing irritation and pimples.

The Easiest Way
to End Dandruff
Stop Falling Hair and Itching
Scalp.

There Is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruff completely
and that Is to dissolve It. This de-
stroys it entirely. To do this. just
get about four ounces Of plain. ordin-
ary liquid arvon; apply 1t at night
when retiring; use enough to moisten
the scalp and rub It in gently with
the finger tips.
By morning most, II not all. Of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will complete
ly dissolve and entirely destroy, every
single sign and trace Of it, no mttter
how much dandrur 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.
II you want to keep your hair look
ing rich. do by all means get rid Of
dandruff, for nothing destroys the hair
90 quickly. 1t not only staryes the
hair and makes 1t fall out, but it
makes it str!ngy, straggly. dull, dry.
brittle and life.ess. and everybody
notices 1t. You can get liquid arvon
at any drug store. It is inexpensive,
and four ounces Is all you WILL need.
This simple remedy has never been
known to fail.
