A SURE WAY TO
END DANDRUFF
Stop Falling Hair and Itching Scalp
AT Once.

There is one sure way that has
never failed to remove dandruff at
once, and that is to dissolve it, then
you destroy it entirely. To do this,
just get about four ounces of plain,
common liquid arvon from any drug
store (this is all you will need), 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
dissolve, and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace Of it, no matter
how much dandruff you may have.
You will find all itching and digging
of the scalp will stop instantly and
your hair will be fluffy, lustrous,
glossy, silky and soft, and look and
feel hundred times better.
If you value your hair, you should
get rid of dandruff at once, for moth
ing destroys the hair so quickly 1t
not only starves the hair and makes it
fall out, but it makes it stringy, strag-
ely, dull, dry, brittle and lifeless. and
everybody notices it.-Adv.
